T-Mobile USA Scam and cheating!

It all began on 09/15/2007, I called T-Mobile to inform them my fairly new cell phone was not working. I was told that I had to take it in to the store to check for water damage, etc. and to see if it was replaceable under warranty.

On 09/26/2007, I went into the T-Mobile store and the representative there by the name of Herby helped me and checked the phone and stated it was defective. He then contacted T-Mobile and was told that I would be receiving a refurbished phone with return label to send back original.

10/1/2007 (Approximate) I received my refurbished phone in the mail. Guess what? My replacement phone for my original defective phone was also defective. I was so upset that I did not want to deal with T-Mobile at that time.

10/15/2007 Called customer service to inform them that the replacement phone they had sent was also defective. Was informed that I had to take the phone back to T-Mobile store to check for water damage, etc. I then informed them that I did not have time waste and continue to go to the T-Mobile store for their mistake. Mistake of not making sure the replacement actually worked. I told them that I would have to see when I would be available to go back into the store. I was told that it was fine and had time.

10/31/2007 Went in to T-Mobile store to check phone again for defectiveness. At that time I was really upset since I paid full price for the phone $450.00 with taxes, and was getting a refurbished phone. This did not make sense! I was offered a new cell phone but the replacement cell phone is actually cheaper than my phone and did not have the capabilities my MDA does. After much dispute with the T-Mobile clerk she contacted technical support. I spoke to a supervisor who was very rude and did not help at all. He stated all that he could do was replace the replacement. I would then be on my third MDA. Supervisor told me in front of T-Mobile clerk over the phone that he would send out replacement and once I received it to return the original phone, and the first replacement.

11/15/2007 Contacted T-Mobile that I had not received replacement and was waiting to receive the phone to return the original and second replacement. Was then informed that it would be sent out as soon as possible that there was a back order on the phone and did not have refurbished ones in stock. How can you not have inventory on a phone you have sold. I hung up.

12/21/2007 Called T-Mobile again and was told that a replacement was never sent because I did not send in my original phone. I did not send it in because I was told to send back the orginal and the first replacement when I received the new replacement. I couldn't believe all the chaos. At that time I told the representative that I would be sending it in that day and she said it was fine. Never once did she say it was too late to send phone back and receive a credit for the restocking fee. Was told that I would receive credit on of before 12/30/2007.

12/24/2007 Tracked the phone they received it on 12/24/2007 and called in the same day. I was told that it was still in the process.

12/31/2007 Called T-Mobile and was told that I would not be getting the restocking fee back and that I would have to pay $505.36, may I mention the phone cost was $399.99 plus tax approximately $450.00. So how can they charge $505.36 for a phone that was never that much to begin with.

First, he stated that I was being charged the restocking fee because my phone had water damage. I then stated, 'how can it have water damage when a T-Mobile representative at the T-Mobile store checked the phone for water damage and stated that it was just defective there was no water damage and she called it in to get the new replacement.' He then sounded confused and changed his story.

Then he stated that I had passed that return time frame and would have to pay this restocking fee. I explained all the issues I had and was told by the representative that there was no one, I mean no one, at this time, that could reverse the charges. I then told them how could they charge $505.36 and keep the phone. The guy did not know what he was talking about. He stated, 'you have a refurbished phone that we sent to you that is why you're paying the restocking fee.' I then stated, 'no I'm paying the restocking fee because you're showing I did not send back the original phone which is a lie because I did and I have a tracking number from UPS to prove that someone there signed for it. The restock fee is a charge that is placed on the account if you do not return the original phone that was replaced by the refurbished phone that you sent. It's basically charging you for the replacement.' He argued for a while and I then asked to speak to supervisor.

The supervisor understood what I was saying but he then stated that there isn't a way to get the phone back. Once they receive that phone it's hard to get it back. How in the heck can you profit twice from me. 1. You have my original phone which works better that the refurbished phone they sent. 2. I have now paid for the restocking fee for the phone I sent back. I then asked to cancel my services but you know what happens then. They threaten you with the cancellation fee of $200.00.

I'm not going to give up though, I've paid this restock fee which really hurts your pocket when you have an $750.00 cell phone bill and $505.36 really isn't yours.

T-Mobile USA Billing issues!

Have a complaint on T-Mobile. I called on 01/06/2008 to see why my bill was 710.00. I have been with them for almost a year and never had this problem. The rep told me to look on my statement at the overages and call back if I see a problem. I did just that and even emailed them. I called today spoke with Cindy in Corporate Office advise her of situation. All she did was keep getting an attitude with me instead of resolving the issue. I was suppose to have T-Mobile to T-Mobile calls added to my account in May when I did a different plan. I was told that my Favorite 5 can only be updated every 30 days even if your T-Mobile phone states that it is updated. Now the other calls which I was responsible for would be taking care of. I called again and the lady Jessica just made arrangements with me to pay the balance just not all at once. This company is a ridiculous wireless service. They treat their customers very rude. You would think they would show some type of courtesy since it is their fault and I have been a customer for almost a year and never had a billing issue or balance that was this high.

T-Mobile USA Billing disputes!

We have been battling with T-Moble regarding charges contact from ER Solutions regarding payments that are overdue from May 2007 through the present even though we canceled our service in May 2007. At that time we contacted T-Mobile regarding the fact that while the service was initiated in Atlanta we had moved to SC where they had no service. They attempted to route our calls through SunCom a minor pass through company that rented service from other providers. We were unhappy with the poor coverage offered by T-Mobile (SunCom) and contacted T-Mobile to request that our phone be unlocked in order that we could us another provider (AT&T). T-Mobile agreed and informed us that we would have to pay an early contract cancellation fee, to which we agreed. Since May 2007 we have not received any billings or other communication from them with the exception of a call we received regarding our failure to pay the cancellation fee. We had been waiting for T-Mobile to bill us for the Cancellation fee and after not receiving a bill for several months we just forgot about it as there other pressing issues related to our move from Atlanta to Mt Pleasant. Upon being notified of our failure to pay the fee we made a remittance of $148.00 using our AmEx card. We have been contacted by ER Solutions (T-Mobile) and informed that we never canceled our service as thus were continuing to be charged the monthly fee. This makes no sense since in May 2007 T-Mobile agreed to terminate our service and unlock our phone in order that we could use an alternative provider since they had no service in the Carolinas. I have spoken with numerous service reps. at T-Mobile and they continue to insist that our acct had not been canceled but merely suspended and thus we were liable for the monthly fee. All attempts to explain that they obviously canceled our agreement when they agreed to allow us to pay a cancellation in order to allow us to go to another provider.

I have been unable to get past the grunt service rep who has repeatedly informed me that if I failed to pay $136.40 by Jan. 14th they would turn the matter over to a third party collection agency. They refuse to admit that by allowing me they obviously would have canceled our agreement but evidently they cannot seem to figure it out.

Anyone that is having problems with the tmobile phone company should contact the better business bureau with all their issues. Until I did, I couldn't even get a legitimate way of faxing pertinent documents to cancel my contract. They couldn't even guarantee me that they would EVER get my faxes until the BBB got involved. Funny, now I have the direct line to the office of the president to discuss issues, and a fax number where someone will be waiting for the fax when I call telling them I'm sending it later today. Get BBB involved with theses crooks. They lie, steal, and cheat you in just about every way they can from what little I've seen.

T-Mobile USA Misleading phone plans

I have been a customer with T MOBIL since 2000, I have problem with the sales representative, not obeying my request for a one year plan. I verbally told the rep. I wanted a One Year Plan, and she signed to a two year plan. This Rep knew exactly what she was doing, keeping me focused on her people skills and not on what I requested. I added two phones on the family plan I specifically told the rep I not sure about responsibility my family would have with these phones, so I need a One year contract. I know these reps get a rate for each plan they sale, but when it comes to being hustled, as if I was buying a phone on the street by a T MOBIL REP, I am out shocked. A big company like T MOBIL have turned their companies representation over to the common sale rep, who is not thinking of the companies rep, but who they can trick to obtain their quota for the month. Shame on you T MOBIL and I WILL MAKE A SPECIAL EFFORT TO LET ALL WHO WILL LISTEN TO LOOK OUT FOR THOSE HUSTLER REP IN THE T MOBIL OFFICE.

Only a few months back, in our second year of service agreement, we found on our bills some sneaky charges on phone equipment warranty even though we never ordered the warranty. I had to call to complain before they removed the charges.

A few months after we signed our service contract, the agent told us that we could switch from the Five Faves option to an any-time minute option and save, but she didn't tell us that there would be a service charge of some $70 for the switch!

More recently, we ordered a web-access service for one of our three family lines. The agent offered to give us one month of free web access service for the other two lines. We thought this offer was only for one month of service, and was free. So we accepted it. Little did we know that it was actually a long-term service, just free for the first month. We were conned into believing that it was for only one month. We wound up being charged for two months of service for two lines for something we didn't even know we had. Consumers Report rated T-Mobile service as high, but my experience has been that it is definitely the worst of all. They give you sneaky, incomplete information to trap you and hit you with unexpected charges.

CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AWFULL

Jan 11, 2008 11:12 am EST

I am writing in regards to the terrible experience I had with T-Mobile’s customer service and their breach of the contract that we agreed to. I have been a good customer with T-mobile since 2001. I renewed my contract on December 21, 2007 after a sales representative coaxed me into a 2 year contract by saying that they would give us 4 phones, the “Samsung Beat” with our contract. She said that if anything was wrong with the phones in the first month, then they would send replacements without any questions. On December 27, 2007, we received the phones and found that one of the memory cards was not functional and the battery did not last long. We called on December 30, 2007, and the representative told us that she would send another phone to replace the old phone and that we would need to send the old phone back to them. We received one new replacement on Jan 2, 2008. The following day on January 3, 2008, we sent the old phone back by UPS.

On January 9, 2008, I called T-mobile because my other family members were having trouble with their phones as well. The communication during phone calls was not clear and it was hard to hear the other person on the line, the calls would be dropped and the battery would last for one day and then fail. This was a common complaint among are family members who were using the new phone, the Samsung Beat.

When I called T-mobile on January 9, 2008, a customer service representative answered the phone. I explained the situation to him and he said that I had to send the phone into the company and then they would have to fix it and send it back. I explained that the other representative had sent me a replacement and I had sent the old phone back to the company the next day. Also, in the first 30 days, the phone is supposed to be replaced with a new one, not repaired. He refused to listen to me and was very rude as he told me the only way to remedy the situation was to repair the phone. He put me on hold for 30 min and would come back no information and he made me switch phones so he could do useless testing on the phone. There was also loud laughter and noise in the background and it was evident that the people in the office were not doing their jobs.

I asked to speak with his supervisor who came on the phone after another 30 minutes. He refused to give me his name and his ID number because the conversation was being recorded and he said his information was in the account summary. This made me doubt that he was the supervisor. He was ruder than the previous salesperson and said that I needed to send back the phone and there were no other options. Then he proceeded to hang up on me.

I could not believe the poor customer service that T-mobile gives its customers once they have signed a 2 year contract. They treat their customers with disrespect knowing that they have their business for 2 years. The incompetence of the customer service representatives was also appalling as they would put me on hold for long periods of time and return with no answer. The lack of professionalism was even evident at the manager level as the manager refused to give his name and as he hung up on a customer. I have never experienced such rude and unprofessional business practices. As a customer, I could not believe that T-mobile would have the audacity to behave this way considering that there are so many cell phone companies that I could switch my service to.
They also did not honor the contract with the phones. The original sales representative told me that they would replace the phone immediately within the first month if it was not working properly. However, the representatives last night said that I had to send the phone back to them so they could repair it. This is the most absurd proposition I have heard from a cell phone company who knows that customers rely on cell phones heavily. Therefore, to give up a phone while a designated time of repair is not given may mean that it could take weeks before a phone is returned. Also, it would allow the company to refuse any replacements by sending the phone after 30 days allowing them to deny any responsibility thereafter. It is evident that all of our family members have had complaints with this phone and therefore it is not a single phone problem. Does T-mobile realistically believe that we should give up all of our phones while they continue to charge us for service fees?

They failed to uphold the agreement in the contract of replacing the phones within the first month for defects. They also provided terrible customer service which was appalling. Their unprofessional conduct should not go without repercussions and they should be reprimanded for their unethical business practices.

T-Mobile USA Rebates not received

I signed up with T-Mobile in June of 2004. I got what I thought was a decent plan at $39.99 for 600 minutes per month, a one year contract, and a Samsung phone which came with a $50 mail in rebate. I sent in all the paperwork and never got the $50 rebate. After a few aggravating months, I stopped calling T-Mobile and accepted the $50 loss. In September 2007, I decided to upgrade my phone, which also came with a $50 mail in rebate and of course I had to extend my contract with T-Mobile for another two years. I received the phone in a timely manner but with absolutely no paperwork, for the rebate, nor the charges for the new phone. I called T-Mobile days later to see why I haven’t received the bill or rebate forms and was assured that I would receive those in the mail. I never got them. I called T-Mobile again and was told to wait until the charges were put on my credit card and then to call their office to have the rebate forms sent to me. Well, it wasn’t until late November 2007 that my credit card was charged for the new phone. I called their office on December 2, 2007 to discuss this with them and the representative that helped me told me that I had to call Young America (the company that deals with all their rebate offers) to have them mail me the rebate forms. Now the representative at Young America (Lewis #493366) tells me that they cannot mail me any rebate forms, T-Mobile has to do that. So I call T-Mobile once again. This time, their representative (Jenna #0150409) tells me that they cannot mail me the rebate forms either. WHY AM I GETTING THE RUN AROUND? I don’t understand, so I request to speak to a supervisor or another representative that could better assist me and all she does is say, “I understand how you feel, but there is nothing that we can do.” I also tell her that I was given the run around when I first signed up with T-Mobile and that I refuse to let them do the same to me again and that now I am just requesting that T-Mobile credit my account for $50. She refused to that by saying again, “I understand how you feel, but there is nothing that we can do.” T-Mobile is simply refusing to send me the rebate forms and if they ever do, then I will be denied the rebate because I didn’t file it in a timely manner with the company. T-Mobile has seriously disappointed me. I will never recommend them. I will make sure that I tell everyone about how T-Mobile has no regard for their customers.

Subject: Re: My T-Mobile.AccountManagement

Beckee or whomever receives this,

The information as presented below is incorrect. Locking the account was my mistake but it was fixed yesterday morning with my first phone call. Now I will get to the real matter at hand. The REAL problem came from an attempt to add money to my daughter's Sidekick from Thursday night. When I input all applicable data and my contact phone numbers the next screen said you were having technical difficulties and were sorry. As I found out with my third or fourth phone call to customer care this was because my credit card had to be verified. I also found out from the 8th person I spoke with that you have a 4 hour timeout for verification and if you are busy and don't get to a request it still timeouts without any action being taken. I asked why I wasn't called and the third person I spoke with said you have to abide by telemarketing rules. I then asked why my cell phone wasn't called. He didn't have a response. This was the same customer care rep that told me the $100 option I chose Thursday night isn't applicable to the Sidekick. (if it isn't applicable then why is it an option for her account? Makes you wonder) I then got back online and chose the $50 option. The exact thing happened with the error screen. I called back to inquire and it was at this time I was transferred to and thru 3 reps. I requested to speak to a supervisor more than once. I was hung up on during one of these. I finally spoke with Allan in the verification department who was my 8th care rep in an hour of trying to find out why I could not add money to an account. It is my impression that I was lied to which is evidenced by the different information provided by 2 people on the $100 option and by the statement you have to abide by telemarketing rules so my phone wasn't called to verify the credit card. I told Allan that if this Sidekick wasn't a gift to my daughter I would just throw it away. There is no reason I can see for me to have to go through what I did yesterday morning. In fact, my very last line requested a phone call to discuss this issue and T Mobile figured it would be easier to modify the issue at hand and send an e-mail instead. Now, do you think there is a reason for me to be frustrated and to have a fabulous long lasting impression of T Mobile? It is back in your court. What do you think the leadership of T Mobile would make of this? I do not think this is in line with the core values of the company. Brett

Dear Brett,

Hi my name is Tom, thank you for taking the time to contact T-mobile. I understand you are very upset over an issue you experienced when trying to add a $100.00 refill to your daughter's prepaid service account and you asked a few questions. I will strive to provide you with world class customer service. We realize how important this issue is to you Brett, and I will be happy to help you out today. I understand your frustration with the refill issue you experienced and I sincerely apologize for that. I have reviewed the prepaid account and it reflects a refill of $50.0 was added to her prepaid account a couple of days ago. I am not sure how I can help you, but I will answer the questions you have provided as best as I can.

1. When I input all applicable data and my contact phone numbers the next screen said you were having technical difficulties and were sorry. As I found out with my third or fourth phone call to customer care this was because my credit card had to be verified?

This information was not available to us for a review, but I believe this information was provided to you by the prepaid service center and it sounds correct.

2. I also found out from the 8th person I spoke with that you have a 4 hour timeout for verification and if you are busy and don't get to a request it still timeouts without any action being taken?

Again this is not information we have available to us, and I believe the prepaid service knows their system better than we do. I am not sure if this was correct, but it sounds good as an answer.

3. I asked why I wasn't called and the third person I spoke with said you have to abide by telemarketing rules?

This is definitely a correct statement, and I am sorry we are not able to call you to address your prepaid refill issue.

4. This was the same customer care rep that told me the $100 option I chose Thursday night isn't applicable to the Sidekick. (If it isn't applicable then why is it an option for her account?

This is definitely confirmed mis-information, and I sincerely apologize as she is able to add a $100.00 refill to her prepaid service account.

5. I requested to speak to a supervisor more than once. I was hung up on during one of these. I finally spoke with Allan in the verification department who was my 8th care rep in an hour of trying to find out why I could not add money to an account?

Again I apologize your call was disconnected with the prepaid service center, and for future reference you can add a refill by contacting the prepaid refill center by pressing *ADD and send on the prepaid handset.

6. Now, do you think there is a reason for me to be frustrated and to have a fabulous long lasting impression of T Mobile?

I definitely see where you are coming from and I would be upset as well if my call was mis-handled and I was transferred around from one agent to another. Again I apologize!

7. What do you think the leadership of T Mobile would make of this?

This is a very good question, and regrettably I am not upper management and I am unable to comment on how they would handle your concern.

If you have any further comments, questions, or concerns feel free to contact us at anytime. Reply back to this E-mail quoting this case number 1018197, or please call back at [protected], *TOGO send from your handset.

Thank you for choosing T-mobile. We appreciate and value your business and loyalty since December 2006 Brett.

Sincerely,

Tom G. Agent rep ID# 7284055

T-Mobile has outsourced their email customer care to a company named NCO. NCO's center in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada has been where ALL your emails have been coming from for a long time.

Now they have sent all the emails to the PHILIPPINES! Get ready for your email and webchat customer care to be coming from Filipino people! HAHA. I thought T-Mobile would never go offshore? They do through NCO. You thought your customer care was bad before?!

T-Mobile USA Shaddy charges

THIS IS A COMPLAINT.

After spending over 1 hour with 2 of T-Mobile representatives namely John & Josh whose ID numbers are P12447565 & 4837530 respectively, I was so dissapointed in the type of service T-mobile if offering.

Both of them could not explain to me as to why T-Mobile is charging me close to $ 60.00 on SMS's that I didn't even make.

Surprisingly Josh who claims to be a supervisor with T-Mobile even told me that he would gladly cancel my service while I was still on the line with him. If it's true that T-Mobile records conversations with customers for quality assurance purposes, then I hope you will be able to listen this my conversation with these T-Mobile representaives.

After endlessly explaining to them that I don't know any thing on these dubious charges, all Josh told me is that I have to pay.

When I opted to talk to his surpvisor he said that the supervisor wasn't in at that moment.

If this is the type of training that T-Mobile is offering to it's representatives then this Corporate is doomed.

I know that what I pay T-Mobile is just a drop of sand in the ocean, but it adds up eventually. So for a "supervisor" to say that he would help me there and them to disconect my line just sends shivers down my spine.

Again all I'm asking to revise my bill & take out those "yahoo mgrs" with a code of "4701".

Bye the way John naively told me to call "Yahoo" & said "Yahoo" would be in a better postion to help me.

Again I'm extremely disappointed in the type of service I received tonight 11/14/2007.

I have been a customer since 98 and until recently have never had an issue with Tmobile. I was mislead by a Tmobile representative into believing that it would be in my best interest to switch my plan to one that had less minutes. I was told that adding on tmobile to tmobile would end up saving me money but that was not the case. After spending an hour on the phone after receiving a $500+ bill, I was told that there was nothing they could do for me. I HAVE BEEN A CUSTOMER SINCE 1998. I am surprised to see that my loyalty has not been recipricated.

I hope that small commission percentage was worth it.

T-Mobile USA Misleading sales and service

Today i contacted tmobile regarding disconnection of my service. I spoke to
Don the financial specialist and then Kelly in your Kansan office who is also another financial specialist. He could not help me so he transfered me to kelly who could not hear me and said she was going to call back but did not.I have four issues with t-mobile but i honestly do not expect to get them handles as you have no interest in customer service it's all about the money with tmobile. This is illustrated in the many other complaints that exist for your company.

1. Service. In the past 2 to 3 months your service has degraded. Calls are periodically not being delivered and are going straight to voice mail, which will eventually show up. This is happeining to other tmobile customers that i know in other states.

2. In July of this year i changed with my girlfriend and her daughter to a family plan. I was told i had to zero balance before this could go into place at the amount of about $ 740.00 i was told at this time that i had a zero balance. Two weeks later i get a bill for over $ 800.00 dollars, when questioned you support their answer is that it was an outstanding amount and we should have been told about it. This is wrong is was paid up.

3. In August i get a bill and i was expecting a bill for $ 180.00 because we had changed to the family plan back in August and most of our calls are between the three of us. But instead i get a bill for about another $ 600.00 saying that we have gone over the plan. This is impossible and your system is erronous, i have timed calls and recorded them and your system is not accurate.

4. I was in Canada at the end of September. I just checked on the internet that i had roaming charges for 630 minutes. I know this is expensive and this is why i keep my calls short. There is no way that i have over 10 hours of talk time i was only there for 4 days.
i moved 2 months ago and notified your office. I have not recieved a bill since then.

Tmobil has the customer service, disconnecting my services every month or every two weeks when the amount they give me is incorrect. They charge deposits for all three lines almost every other month because of the wrong amounts they tell me my bill is going to be and its not. Reconnection fees all the time for all three lines. Im very pissed off that I kept getting adjusments and refunds because of their lies but the amount I was always paying wasnt going on the monthly bill, just paying for the reconnection to have it on for a couple of days..Im livid that they even gave me a 30 day grace period and they still turned it off before the period was over..PLEASE help

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I received a phone when I started up the plan. The phone had terrible reception and often cut out. The representative recommended changing to a Nokia. I paid for the upgrade and then received another phone in which the reception, service, and coverage was even worse. It progressively got worse until 3 months later the LCD screen went completely white. There...

T-Mobile USA Defective items and poor information from customer service reps

My main complaint with this company is that they totally screwed me on a phone that i upgraded to. I originally purchased a blackberry a little over a year ago. I was able to upgrade after the year of the service so i did, i upgraded to the sidekick id (i originally wanted a sidekick a year ago but they were not in stock) I paid over $100.00 and added an additional 2 years to my service contract to do this.

I received my new sidekick and for 2 days it was stuck on the activation screen so i called and they had to trouble shoot for me to get it to bypass this (the phone is completely inactive while on this screen, so i had no phone for 2 days) once this problem was solved i was able to use the phone but i noticed that all of my calls had this really high pitch sound in the ear piece and the sound would cut in and out in the conversation (i had perfect reception by the way)

So i called into tmobile and they did some trouble shooting and i went along with it and gave it a day or so and it still did the same thing as before and so i called back for a 3rd time now and they advised that i needed to replace my sim card. In order to replace the sim card you have to go to a tmobile store (the nearest one is 45 min from my home) I had to wait until the weekend to do this seeing how i have kids and work and all that good stuff during the week.

I went to the store and they advised that the sim card would cost me $20.00 and then an additional $20.00 to have the information transferred to the new one from the old one. So i refused the new sim and tried it on 2 other tmobile phones that i had and i had no issues on these phones so in conclusion it was the phone that they had sent me.

I called back to the t mobile tech support and advised and they wanted me to do more trouble shooting and i refused and demanded a new phone be sent to me. They agreed and sent out a phone. The phone they sent me is a used phone and it works worse than the first one i received.

My point is that i paid for a new phone and i have not received a phone that works properly yet. I don't think i should have to settle for a used phone seeing how i called in from day 1 on the new phone.

On top of that this same month i called in and advised that i was going on a cruise and that i needed to know how the rate would work on this cruise. The rep asked where i was going and i told him to the Bahamas and Cococay. He told me that the cost would be $2.99 a min. I received my bill and it was $322.00 instead of the normal $118.00 a month. The charges were $5.99 a min and they charged me for roaming and texting after i was told by tmobile it was included in my plan.

How do people get away with this. What is a person to do? Advise smb!

I agree whole heartedly and have had similar experence with TMobile. I entered into a contract with them for a Sidekick - Internet (texting only) for my grand daughter. Problems began within two months. From the service plan being changed to Cell phone and changes of 0ver $300. for text messages. I expected TMoble to investigate how this could happen. No calls made during that time... So it certainly wasn't my grand daughter! But settled for a credit.

Then the Sidekick stopped working - Power issues. The phone was taken to local Tmoble centers. Charger replaced. Was told that the device had water damage. If the device was not dropped in a puddle, sink or other pool of water. I needed an explanation of how this could happen.

I'm at the point my credit (current Score 800) is being jepardized by this one internet only account.

The Customer Service experience really depends upon who is at the other end. While I had to call numerous times to get changes removed while the Sidekick was unservicable, on two occasions the young ladies were quite helpful. However, on two other occasions, I was treated very disrespectfully. My questions were ignored and the Customer Care persons acted like collection agents verses dealing with the ongoing equipmenr issues. a reasonable company would offer equipment options and not threats to charge you for the remainder of the contract.

I have been a Verizon customer for over 10 years. Had thought about moving to TMoble until these issues unfolded.

I'd love to hear from other Sidekick customers...

T-Mobile tries to hide behind every bush they can to avoid replacing a phone. 99% of the time when they replace a phone, it's with a refurbished phone. The only way you can almost guarantee a new phone is going to a store and watching the reps open a box in front of you. I've had more problems with Tmobile phones (mostly ones that have MP3 players/Memory Card Slots) than I've had with any other electric devices. It's more of a hassle when you have a Sidekick/Blackberry type data devices because they require you to send them back first and they'll either fix them or send you a refurbished one (where other problems are most likely going to arise) They told me they wanted me to pay $20 dollars to ship me out another SideKick Slide, on top of the price of gas to get to the post office and the price of the shipping back the defective unit. If you complain about that issue enough they should waive the fee for you esp if you mention that you are going to go to another provider because you are having so many issues with THEIR units and are given so much of a hassle to get repaired or replaced and the lack of service quality.

All I know is that I've had tmobile for 2 years and when I get my tax return in March/April, I'm going to cancel my service (unfortunately a whopping $600) plus the last months service :-(and go with Verizon.

They are trying to make up for poor service quality with the hype over new phones like the BlackberryPearl 8220 flip phone, the HTC Dream (not official name yet) and the TMobile Android (not official name either) that are all expected to be available by year end. This is kinda like a suck-up to the public for crappy services. Don't know if it'll work or not tho.

T-Mobile USA Lousy coverage areas!

I cannot get a signal in my own house... unless I manage to stand in certain areas of my house (never exactly the same). I don't get coverage in other businesses and residences where I spend most of my time. I get random voicemails a day or two after they are left.

I want to get out of my plan and I don't think I should have to pay an ETF because they aren't delivering the product offered. I know others in the same situation and I'm getting ready to start collecting other unsatisfied customers and starting a big class action. This is a total scam.

I have had many dropped calls in the middle of business telephone conferences. I have had family and business situations where I've needed to contact somebody and have been forced to borrow a cellphone from a Verizon customer... who for some reason has full signal in the same spots I have none or been forced to find a landline.

i do not appreciate you giving out a private phone number of my husband (its not even his work number but a family phone) to the internet claiming to call anytime 24/7 when he only works standard hours and as a field tech. He has nothing to do with dealing with customer complaints. So why don't you grow some balls and give your private number here so people (even ones from halfway across the country) can bombard you phone calls at all hours of the night (fun when it wakes up the kids) and see how you feel. And I know who you are. i can go as far as writing your number here myself or similar sites claiming your the person to call for all help and problems. But I have the decency not to stoop to your standards. But let it be a warning, what goes around comes around.

Their customer service and coverage stinks. It's taken me 4+ years of putting up with them after over ten years of loyalty to finally admit it to myself and move to another carrier. I've been through a dozen different phones (in hopes that maybe that was the problem), and finally realized after using a company-issued Verizon phone that it really is just T-Mobile. The last straw for me was their crappy new MyTMobile Web site that just plain doesn't work.

At this point, the cancellation charge they are going to attempt to nail me with is worth it just to go to a carrier that actually works.

T-mobile has the worse service, you would think by now you wouldn't experience any dropped calls well with T-mobile you can almost gurantee it. There customer representative are not knowledgeable. International rates yeah right I went on a cruise they advise me one rate on the phone when I get my bill the prices is outrageous and no one wants to help me. All I was told if you on a cruise the rates are different NO I should have been told the rates are OUTRAGEOUS! This cell phone company gets the bottome of the barrel phones and the bottom of the barrel CSR, the dropped calls are unlimited. If you are interested in getting a cell phone from this provider think about it, you know the saying customer beware well CUSTOMER BEWARE T MOBILE IS HORRIBLE & SO IS CSR. They don't even have a international rate plan as if they are from the stone age

The only time you get great coverage with T-Mobile is when you're in a metropolitan city. Other than that, go to verizon. T-mobile does a good job of sucking people in with the really low rate plans and then the cell phones being really cheap too. some are good and some are bad. just stay away from any samsung phone.

they keep on pushing the hotspots at home, but if you're only experiencing problems in your home then that's cool, problem solved with wi-fi calling. but if you drop it everywhere else and don't have wi-fi coverage in that area, then it sucks... i heard from a friend of mine that was a T-Mobile employee that they are not going to waive anymore ETF fees because of the hot spots at home being available now.

I have been a customer for over 15 years and had my smart phone for about a year now. I never fully used my 200MB data limit and frequently used 10% or so or my allowed amount. Last night, when I was asleep and my phone was charging, my records showed data usage of 250+MB. I called customer service and was assured it was some kind of a fluke and that a credit will be given to me since this was my first request. However, when I was transferred to next customer service agent I was told that the only way for me to avoid paying for extra usage is to sign up for a higher data plan. When I asked to be told which internet sites I allegedly "visited" to generate such significant data usage I was told that they do not have those records. I believe this is an illegal skim by T-Mobile to get people sign up for more expensive services - first they manipulate your phone/their records to claim you used excess data and then they "force" you to sign up for more expensive services under the disguise of doing you a favor. I know I did not use the phone so either T-mobile (or its partner) sold me me a defective product that connects to Internet without my permission or T-mobile manipulated its data systems. I am seeking people in similar situation so that we can possibly obtain legal representation for class action litigation. It will not cost us anything and should teach T-Mobile to respect its customers and not to falsify the data usage.

I had something similar happen to me. Probably a year ago and a little over a year, I turned in my 7500 blackberry and found out later that I was charched a whopping over $200. When I called to investigate, I was told I had dropped my phone in water hence it was damaged. Mind you, the only reason why I turned the phone in for an exchange was because he charging port on the blackberry was not connecting properly with the cable causing my phone to die. It could not be charged. When I called and made the complaint, I was informed that it was a well known problem and that I should send it back once I received the new one. I did just that. After trying to explain it to them that there was no way possible for me to have dropped the phone in water and then sent it their way, they still cut off my service until I paid it off.

Recently, roughly about two months ago, I encounted the same problem again. This time, I went by one of the T-mobile stores for them to double check it and confirm that it was the port. Nothing else was wrong with the phone. When I called T-mobile, I made sure I said to the representative that nothing was wrong with the phone except the charger was not connecting to the port on the phone. I also mentioned my past experience with them. The moist generated on the cell phone while UPS is transporting the phone from one destination to other is unavoidable. Needless to say, I am being charged over $200 for the phone I sent back.

This is fraud by T-mobile. How many people are returning their blackberries with same issue and are being charged 200 dollars. Imagine the amount of money they are illegally making off people who using their services. They don't make it easier for you to drop it off at a T-mobile store for them to package, knowing very well that the moist is inevitable and that is their money making outlet.
I am going to contact Help me Howard to help me. Once this is done, I will not USE T-MOBILE AGAIN.

SORELY DISAPPOINTED CUSTOMER!

T-Mobile USA Area code changing problem

On Aug 2 I have requested a change of area code on a T-mobile To Go prepaid card. I have been told that the new number would be active within 24 hours. Immediately after I received a text message with the new number. 24 hours later the number was still not active. I called the customer service and was told that it could take up to 48 hours due to a backlog. After 48 hours I called again and was told that, due to a widespread technical problem, it could take up to 72 hours. After pressing to know what the nature of the problem was, I was told that it is actually not known how much it can take to perform the requested change, 2, 3, 4 days, a week... They told me to keep calling to know the status! I told them that both their service and their communication to customers was extremely poor (why did they not tell me upfront that there was a problem? I could have kept my old area code for a few more days) and that they were loosing customers. Not much of a reaction, they obviously have enough customers. The floor supervisor I spoke to is a Charlie (#[protected]). Is there a minimum guaranteed service that operators have to provide with telephone prepaid services? Thank you. Alberto Gianoli

T-Mobile USA Unauthorized charges!

I have been with t-mobile for over 3 yrs, and recently got a huge bill from them. After speaking to a supervisor at customer care I was told that there had been overdue balances carried over since the first month of service. Than was told a few other stories, and eventually told that they can only look at 60 days. But I should pay it and keep track from this point on. I never accrued any extra charges, nor did I have a balance that was carried over for 3yrs. I think they are trying defraud the consumer. Every extra dollar on your bill that you pay without noticing equals to a million dollar of fraud charges. Just be careful, as you can't trust this company... They lost my vote after 3yrs and I am looking for another carrier...

I have never been a T-Mobile customer. In August, 2015, I noticed that T-Mobile US Inc had used my unauthorized credit card number to receive payment for a tablet with one-year service which I never ordered. I called T-Mobile several times, finally talking to a rep from Loss Prevention in Columbus, Ohio. She was able to pull the account payment up and view. She stated the phone conversation was being recorded and blamed Groupon. She agreed to refund the credit card payment plus $200.00 for inconvenience in additional to removing all references to my credit card information in its data base. I called this T-Mobile rep back at the number she provided which was a store in Columbus, Ohio. No one ever heard of her. I have filed suit in JP-Civil Small Claims Court and sent them Interrogatories and Order for Production. A T-Mobile paralegal called me and was very rude. I sent her a copy of my bank statement showing the T-Mobile charged payment and told her to have the attorney call me back. She was told to personally never call my office again. She called again when I was out-of-town. A CLASS ACTION SUITE NEEDS TO BE FILED AGAINST T-Mobile. I fully expect to have to file a motion to COMPEL discovery with the Court. I will let the JURY decide.

I have been a loyal customer of T-mobile for 5 yrs +, and payed my bill on time always. I recently changed my coverage to Sprint for better coverage, & discount through employer. I verified that I was not breaking my contract with T-mobile and advised I was fine. I payed off my account thought things we're closed with T-mobile, but still getting phone calls that my account is past due, and then a letter needing $265.00 more dollars. I called billing & customers service today, and was advised that since I kept my old phone number to carry to my new company that I'm being dinged for this outrageous fee. Not one person ever told me about such a charge, and I feel this should have been advised and informed to the customer. I really feel raped with these charges & the fact that I always payed my bill and on time, tried to avoid any issues.

I have been a customer of T-Mobile for over 7 years. Approximately 5 months ago I started getting overcharges on my phone for Internet service that I never signed up for. I called T-Mobile and informed them that I never signed up for Internet service and after arguing for an hour- they agreed to reimburse me the additional charges and block Internet service for all four lines on the account. Since then- on all my invoices following my complaint- I still receive extra charges for "Internet" service and every month I call to complain. Two months ago I spoke to a rep and he acknowledged that they have been overcharging their customers and that we they are working 24/7 to credit all their customers the overcharges. This month- after receiving another over inflated bill I called again, They agreed to credit my $69.65 for last month's overcharge- but apologized that they cannot credit me the previous overcharges because it is too late. I expressed my rage over this statement and informed them that I would be cancelling my service in March after my contract is done. At that point they had the audacity to offer me a free month of service for all the inconvenience- but also informed me that by accepting this apologetic gift- my contract would be extended for 2 years! How insulting is that - I guess they thought that they were dealing with an idiot! At that point I declined the offer and informed them that I would file a formal complaint against T-Mobile and I would definitely drop them as soon as my contract was up. It's a shame that a big company as T-Mobile would treat their loyal customers in that way.

This is the biggest cell phone scam. I was with T-mobile for over two years and my normal monthly bill was no more than $45.00. Suddenly, without warning I get a T-mobile bill for over $400.00 and a note on an email from them that they have decided to charge me for every incoming call, outgoing call, checking voicemail, etc., etc. Suspiciously I was receiving a lot of incoming calls I did not recognize and had to check my voicemail to see if there were any messages. They have now passed it over to a collection agency who send prerecorded messages several times daily to my residential phone and now have sent a threatening message to use every means possible to collect (whatever that menas). In addition, T-Mobile has lousy coverage. When I initially took T-mobile service I ordered coverage from coast to coast as I was travelling in my Rv. Throughout the whole of Missouri I could not get any signals. Phoned T-Mobile, they tried and also not successful in linking me to any signals.
Be wary of a cell phone company that without warning sends you a huge bill as they have made a decision to charge you for anything and everything you were not previously notified of. Absolutely unethical and disgusting cell phone company

I have been a t-mobile customers for over 10 years. I always paid my bills and tried to stay within my minutes. Because it is a family plan, I never paid more than $120.00. My sister went to Haiti for two months. When she came back after the earthquake, we received a bill for over $1300 with calls being made to Haiti in February 2010. When we called t-mobile to resolve the issues that we do not call Haiti and made calls to these numbers, they accused us that the calls were coming from our phone. When we asked to talk to higher manager so this could be investigated further, the investigator indicated that she was the highest in charge and there was nothing she can do about this. I truly believed someone hacked into our lines or t-mobile data. T-mobile is doing nothing to help with this issue. I just think it is ridiculous, unfair, and poor customer service for not taking the time to look into this further. Especially for someone who's been a customer over 10 years.

This T-mobil should be called T-rob because they just want to rip you because you are bound by the term! A friend of mine to let his 10 year old kid to have a phone in case of emergency contact. Unfortunately, the kid was fanscinated by the games that T-rob provided and he down loaded a lot of games then ofcourse the parents won't get aware until it was a month late. When he reviewed the bill he was astonished that they charge so much on the games! When the parent asked if these belong to unautherized usage, they said yes. But when you ask for refund, they said either No or if you pay extra money with 2 more years services but no more money back. They are so greeedy and scared us too because I have used T-mobil for 2 years, maybe it is time to change.__John

ive had a nokia (T-MOBILE) for about 2 years... it started calling itself- IM NOT KIDDING! starting about 3 months ago... this issue IS NOT funny- this problem is waisting my minutes!

not only does the phone call itself- but within the last 2 weeks it has been calling numbers that arent even possible- sometimes 15 digit numbers... THATS IMPOSSIBLE RIGHT?! well i guess NOT- cuz thats what happening to me...

ive talked to a few T-MOBILE people about this and they think i am flat-out lying! has anyone had this problem? this is horrible!

everytime the phone calls a number (EVEN WHEN ITS TURNED OFF!) runs down my (pre-pai) minutes!

i do not understand what is happening... why doesnt anyone know whats going on?

T-MOBILE can let me get a new phone for free? or find a way to fix my "baby" for free?

i am very upset and i dont know how to find a way to fix this problem!

i wish T-MOBILE would burn themselves down so that none of us have to deal with their crap anymore!

this phone company is going to make me cry- im so upset at them... and they are very rude when i asked them about some other problems on my other phones too (all from T-MOBILE!)

Jenny, I am delighted to hear other customers problems with T-mobile because someone needs to take action against T-MOBILE and other wireless companies due to over charging their customers.

T-Mobile USA Unscrupulous underhanded and unethical behavior

I have been with T-Mobile since the Aerial days, and must say the service and support has declined dramatically over the years, until finally, I just had enough. Every month or so, the signal degraded until finally I could no longer get reception anywhere, including my home, which had worked for about a decade. Their support people were not only rude, but also incompetent. I was tricked into changing my plan, as I was grandfathered into a great rate, only to find out that they not only misrepresented what I would get on my new plan, i.e. t-zones and unlimited internet, but also boosted my charges into orbit. I was also promised I could go back to my old plan if I was not happy. Not true. It really wasn’t about the money, as I was accustomed to having bills as high as $1,800.00 ... once it was $1,400, because they signed me up for unlimited internet and then charged me by the packet. Absolutely Ridiculous. I changed to a blackberry, which they could barely get to work, and paid top dollar for it, with the promise that I could go back to my previous plan if I was unhappy (Should have been wise to them after they pulled this one on me the first time). Don’t fall for this. Not only could I not go back, but I was out over $400 bucks for a device that didn’t work, and a 2 year contract to get into my new crappy plan. I raised enough of a stink that they promised to unlock my Blackberry phone, so at least I could sell it. This they also changed their minds on, and decided keep the lock my phone, making it for the most part, a paper weight. This is quite unfair, I paid for the phone, it is my asset, my property, and they crippled it. At this point, I was pretty much fed up with T-Mobile, and gave them an ultimatum. Either fix my issues, or Cingular would. Once again, T-Mobile promised to work with me, unlock my phone and try to figure out what the problem was, but once again, they decided not to unlock my blackberry, and ignore my service issues. As I promised, I made the jump to Cingular. I had to purchase yet another Blackberry, because T-Mobile would still not unlock my device. (Note: the Cingular transition went off without a hitch.. They did exactly what they promised, and then some)

T-Mobile called, now demanding $200 dollars for breaking my contract, and another $100 for my monthly bill. My take was, no way! I feel they owe me money for my device! And as for the contract, I just signed it, nothing was working right, the contract is a 2 way street! They must provide service as promised, or the contract is null and void! My house is clearly on the map for supported areas, not to mention that I was promised that if this did not work, I could cancel. I refused to pay... After working with their billing folks, I agreed to pay the bill, if they unlocked the phone. They felt that was reasonable (I didn’t, as I felt the contract issue was totally unfair, but would have paid it just to make this all go away). Once again, they changed their minds, and refused to send me the unlock, and once again, I refused to pay. I now am being hounded by credit bureaus, threatening to damage my credit.. but, still I will not pay. It is just wrong. In summary, this would never have had to escalate to this point if T-Mobile had just been honest, upfront, and provided the service as agreed. As it stands now, they might have put a dent in my otherwise stellar credit rating, but I have cost them countless customers by sharing my experiences with everyone I deal with personally and professionally. With the competition for cell phone service being at a peak, T-Mobile should at least try to buff off their already tarnished reputation. I feel their unscrupulous underhanded and unethical behavior is rapidly catching up with them.

Buyer Beware!

T-Mobile USA Horrendous customer service

T-Mobile's service is horrendous and customers are not even worth $20. T-Mobile's automated system gives out incorrect information about your phone being restored in two hours. However, my service was off for more than 5 hours and a supervisor acted as if because I had a past due amount, I shouldn't be saying anything. And, one of the reps who restored it said that the system is supposed to automatically restore, but I had to call in and keep checking with them.

On top of that, they refused to refund my restore fee, but offered 100 free minutes. I told them whatever, but that I was going to still talk to a supervisor. I go back this month to check my bill and to make sure the minutes are on there and they aren't. So I call and the rep tells me that in someone else's notes it states that I didn't want the minutes. Now I sit there and tell them that that is incorrect. The rep refuses to listen and just keeps repeating like a broken record that the report states I refused them. Now you would think after the first incident of having an unhappy customer write a 2-3 page letter about their system giving out incorrect information, they would go ahead and provide good customer relations the second time around, listen to the customer, believe the customer and give me the 100 minutes as THEY offered. But they don't. I ask to speak to a supervisor AGAIN, explain the horrible customer service that I've been receiving and he sounds like the first imbecile refusing to give me the minutes that THEY offered.

T-mobile needs to be ashamed of themselves! I would tell anyone not to get their service unless they want to be treated like a servant!

T-Mobile USA Terrible customer service experience

I'm having a terrible customer service experience from tmobile so far as it has $75 of my money. I was a happy camper when I was with Cingular except their customer service which I feel is very good compared to what I'm going through with T-Mobile now.

I was told that T-Mobile had the best customer service and some cool plans. I'm a member of the American Airlines AAdvantage Program and T-Mobile has a program promotion through American Airlines offering 8000 Miles for 1 year commitment. That sounded cool and I placed an order by calling [protected] on 12/8/2006 for a Black PEBL phone with 1 Year of service for $50(Eventually will be free after $50 dollars mail in rebate). I also placed an order for a PEBL PACK VPC & CASE for $19.99 along with this order. The order number for reference is 112775xxx(I'm putting x's for security purposes). I got an email order confirmation from T-Mobile and I didn't find any tracking number even after 3 days. So I called the customer service dept again and I was told that due to the glitch in their system, It didn't generate a tracking number and Tmobile rep said that they have to cancel the original order(Order Num 112775xxx) and do a reorder with a free overnight shipping. They finally re-ordered with a new order num 112808xxx. This time I saw a tracking number, but was shocked to see about $317($299+tax) on my credit card online statement, instead of $50 + taxes. So I called TMobile the same evening, and they apologized as usual for the mess up and T-Mobile rep told me that the amount will credited back to my Credit card account in 3 days. 3 days passed by and nothing happened and called again. And after repeated callings( I spoke
with atleast 15 representatives), finally the amount($250 + taxes) got credited back to my account after nearly 2 weeks.

During this period, it hurt me personally and finacially as T-Mobile was holding about $265 of my money . I promised my wife and kids to take them to restaurant and I could not go as my credit card had near maxed out. I have to curtail my grocery expenditure. I looked like a bad father and a bad husband. I lost nearly about 4 to 5 hours of my quality time in total by talking to the Customer Service Reps who took me no where instead of spending time with my wife and kids. I thought everything would be fine from there onwards and tried to put the whole thing behind. But I was wrong. On 1/4/2007, I got a email telling that a new line has been activated to my existing account, which I didn't approve at all. I got a package with a new black pebl phone and my credit card was charged for nearly $75 dollars, without my authorization. I called the tmobile service rep and she told me that there was an error and everything would be taken care of. When I looked at the invoice, it had an order number of 112775xxx(Which is the same order Which Initially I was told will be cancelled) and TMobile ofcourse did not cancel the original order. They messed up again. The customer service rep told me to send the package back using the return form or to return to the nearest t-mobile store. I returned the package to my nearest t-mobile store after driving 25 mins and spending my money on gas all because T-Mobile screwed up. I talked to some one from the administrative office and they told me that they will only credit back the $75 dollars after the receive the package and It would take 10 to 20 business days after they receive package. I cried foul and demanded as It's tmobile's fault that they are responsible for crediting the $75 dollars at once. She finally told me that she will transfer me to her supervisor and after waiting 20 mins, the line got disconnected or may she disconnected. Who Knows!. In a nutshell,TMobile has my $75 dollars again now and I feel betrayed and cheated by T-Mobile. Keeping my fingers crossed when I will get my money back!

What others tell you about the lack of service in areas is absolutely true. I also could not get T-Mobile to give me a refund or let me out of the contract and I was only about a week outside of the refund window. If this company was really on the up and up, they would be very UPFRONT about telling you that you have a certain grace period during which the contract can be canceled if you are dissatisfied. These grace periods can be tricky because they differ from state to state. California's grace period is longer than some other states, but did anyone even tell me about the grace period? No! Not until it was too late and I was complaining about the service area.

The customer service is also the worse. I can't even begin to count how many times I talked to one person who told me one thing only to get a different answer from another rep. About six months into my horrible service, I finally gave up and picked up an AT&T contract while still paying my monthly T-Mobile payment. The moment my T-Mobile contract was due to expire, I was on the phone making sure I wasn't rolled over even one month. Did the idiots get it right? No! I can't even go into the problems I had just getting canceled.

After I finally got out, I wanted to transfer SIM cards from our AT&T phones into our T-Mobile razor phones (we love these phones.) The first ### I spoke to told me I couldn't get the unlock codes because I no longer had an account and I would need to get someone else with a T-Mobile account to put in the request for me?! I just couldn't believe this was true, so I tried calling back and found that he was indeed a ###. The truth is that you have a three month period, after cancellation, to ask for unlock codes or to inquire about your account. Luckily, it was one of the only times I got someone who actually KNEW something at T-Mobile. I received the correct codes within a few minutes and was switched over.

Oh, yeah, my final T-Mobile bill just came in March and my contract was up on January 4. Another complaint-it took about five months to get my rebates (when I first started up with them) because they kept sending me letters saying I wasn't eligible and I was. Save yourself a LOT of hassle, anger, frustration, customer service calls and hair pulling. DON'T GO T-MOBILE! You'll regret it.

And, yes, I'm VERY happy with AT&T. The ONLY call I've had to make to them was to ask about the unlock codes. The first person I talked to knew that I had to ask T-Mobile for the unlock codes to their phones. Rats!

im not trying to call you a liar, but a tmobile rep would not of been able to give you unlock codes on the call you requested them. we first must submit the request to the maker of the phone then we email it to you within 2-7 days.

also dont you think it would be up to you to read the terms and conditions about the return period yourself ? sounds crazy i know. im so shocked you blame the company for u not reading your own contract that YOU signed.

T-Mobile USA No promised rebate!

My cell phone was not working correctly and I needed a replacement. Because the phone was broken, I did not want to sign a new contract, just replace the phone. I explained this in detail to the sales person. I spent a lot of time with the rep at the T-Mobile store reviewing the prices and available rebates of the different phones. I chose a phone with a great rebate--$50 instant and $50 mail-in. When I went to pay, the rep then said that no rebates applied at all to my purchase! The phone cost $100.00 more than I was led to believe! I feel I was duped. I am angry and I want the rebate I was originally promised.

T-Mobile USA No responsibility and crappy phone

What a piece of absolute CRAP this phone is. Shame on me for replacing it twice with more of the same. 3 of these have cracked at the upper left hinge under normal use. T-Mobile and Motorola both call this "physical damage" and won't replace any of them.

Calls to Motorola's Consumer Advocacy Office were a complete waste of time. Don't bother.

Don't waste your money on any Motorola product - if you have trouble with it you may be in for the same experience I've had.

Everybody seems to know now that the RAZR is worthless. T-Mobile people put it politely when they tell me, "Yes, these phones are a bit more delicate than others."
They're practically giving them away now... they know they need to get rid of as many as they can before the whole world discovers what trash they are.

I've had many of the problems described in the above complaints.The slightest bit of moisture . or vapor knocks the phone out.The white dot is red now .Its my second V3, they honored the warranty on the first one, because the white dot had not turned red.I too, have had issues with the upper left hinge.The cover since day one, has been popping off.
My Razor also started taking pictures uncontrollably, till I took the battery out and let the phone "dry" out for a day.(it never really got wet).Because I got the the phone for $50, I am locked in to a 2 year contract, which I almost ate, because I was so angry at AT&T.But then I decided to buy a cheap phone and got a $20 Nokia GO-phone which
accepts my Razr sim card.So now, when the Razr goes down, I switch to the Go-phone.
I am still angry, I had to switch, to AT&T, because I am living in a Verizon dead zone, and my cell is my only phone.The phone I had with Verizon was Casio G-Zone 5
indestuctable, waterproof and took great pictures.I loved it, and now I am stuck, with this piece of junk!

My sister had the same issue with her V3. Water damage which has occurred through no contact with water. The sales reps at the store she got it from told her it was from "condensation", and "water molecules in the air". She had the phone kept in a waterproof case (careful much?) and it didn't do her any good. When she asked the sales reps what she could have done to prevent water molecules in the air from getting into her phone, they told her "nothing."

She has spent hours on the phone to a call centre in India to try to get a refund for a phone she's been still paying for for the past 16 months when it has been unusable.

I don't believe that, with motorola's dodgy production materials, this should be a cause for voiding warranty.

I'm trying to gauge interest in a class action against Motorola for loss of time and money due to their bad business practices. Anyone who wants to put forth their statement, let me know.

I got my razr from a friend used with no problems...i got it in august. my account is at&t so i cant relate to anyone here. but just recently my phone has been making very akward noises that no one has ever heard b4. if i take my phone off a full charge and make less than a 10 minute phone call my battery does that non-stop gay little chirp. the vibrating function went out on my phone. and decides to work when it wants 2, and does it only very light. in the past few days my phones front display has been staying that blue color. all the gay dinging sounds that it makes seem to have gotten louder. and sometimes when i open my phone i get a white background for 20 or 30 seconds, it will go black, sometimes turn off, or flash a few times then go to my pic background. i cant control my ring tone as if every time i do i get the white screen of death. with numbers and letters saying how crappy my phone is. my text messages r stuck as "make it rain" by Fat joe and lil wayne and all calls r stuck as "lollipop" by lil wayne and static major.

When i received the phone back two weeks later the problem still persisted, and i have just gotten used to reply only texting... until now another friend of mine has been trying to text me and i have not been receiveing from her either... not to mention my faulty 0 button...

motorolas are a waste of money and time.
if you have internet and you get a 413 error and it won't show the page.
it's a motorola thing.
they won't let so many kb's per URL.
i think it's the stupidest thing i've ever heard of.
and they wouldn't replace the phone because it says it in the manual.
what an idiot, i mean yeah i'm going to go and say hey let me read the manual first before i get the phone?

The Motorola RAZR is a cheaply made phone put together in Red China. It has moisture sensitive material that insulates the electronics circuits. Once it is exposed to water the water dissolves the water soluble insulation, so the electronic circuit will ground itself out once you put the battery back in it. Therefore, you see it is designed to self-destruct once it is exposed to water. If you are lucky, remove the battery immediately. Take it apart, dry it completely for several days, and put the battery back in it. Motorola could have used any other type of insulation that was not water-soluble and the phone would work fine but they could not sell as many phones. Most pocket style phones are damage by being left in a pocket and going thru the wash, dropped in the pool, falling in the lake etc. They know this is how they sell so many of them. There should be a class action law suite against these ### because they intentionally designed the phone with water-soluble insulation that dissolves with the first exposure any moisture. You are being screwed. Are you listening you Class action vulure lawyers. Here is your chance to make a billion dollars. Go get them.

NEVER BEEN EVER CLOSE TO WATER, NEVER BEEN TOUCHED WITH WET HANDS, NEVER DROPPED, NOTHING EVEN CLOSE. WHAT THE HELL DO I NEED TO TALK TO SOMEONE IN THE PHILLIPINES FOR? I LIVE IN CAROL STREAM, ILLINOIS, ABOUT 20 MINUTES FROM A VERY LARGE MOTOROLA FACILITY IN SCHAUMBURG, ILLINOIS. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL CUSTOMER OF MOTOROLA PRODUCTS SINCE 1981. MY OLD STAR TAC FLIP WAS THE BEST PHONE I EVER HAD. 5YRS AND IT NEVER MISSED A BEAT. MOTOROLA ADVERTISES THIS PHONE AND ALL THE PROVIDERS TOUT IT . IN REALITY ITS AN INFERIOR PRODUCT WITH AN INHERENT PROBLEM AND MOTOROLA HAS A HUGE LOOPHOLE IN THE WARRANTY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE POLICY. LAST MOTOROLA PRODUCT FOR ME.

T-Mobile USA Hotspot scam!

Copy of Email to T-Mobile:

Dear T-Mobile,

I recently discovered that I am being charged $39.99/month for two T-mobile accounts, one that I use (username: mrzebhogan) and one that I have not used since Jan 2005 (username: zeb555). The "zeb555" was used for one month, from Dec 2004-Jan 2005.

The “zeb555” account was created at a time when month to month accounts with T-mobile were deactivated after one month of use unless the subscriber paid for another month). When T-mobile changed their policy and began charging subscribers for month to month plans, I signed up for a new account using the username "mrzebhogan", with the understanding that the "zeb555" was deactivated. However, "zeb555" was not deactivated and in fact T-mobile has been charging me $39.99 for that account for the past 19 months, though I have not logged on since Jan 2005 and I am an active user of another account in my name, using the same email address and credit card.

As a result, I have been charged over $700 over the past 2 years for an account that I did not know that I had and that I have not used. In addition, as a loyal T-mobile customer, I have paid T-mobile several hundred additional dollars for an account that I do use (and I do not dispute those charges).

I called T-mobile customer service and they told me that they cannot refund past 60 days. This is ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE to me (since this would be a refund of $80, while I was charged over $700). As an excuse, T-mobile representative told me that it is my responsibility to monitor my bank account to make sure that I am not being overcharged.

I travel much of the year. While it is possible for me to monitor my bank accounts on occasion, I do not look at them regularly. Moreover, when I did happen to see the two T-mobile charges on my account, they usually came a day apart (on the 23rd and 24th of each month) so when I looked at my account I simply thought that I was being charged for one month on the 23rd and the second month of the 24th. It wasn’t until both charges came on the same day that I realized that something was amiss.

Your policy of blaming customers and systematic overcharging is very poor business practice. After all, I am and continue to be a loyal T-mobile subscriber! I’ve told all my friends about this and they can’t believe it! They’ve all urged me to close my account immediately and file a complaint. Still, simply closing my account is not a satisfactory resolution to this problem – I don’t want to close my account. I would like to remain with T-mobile and I would like a $700 refund.

Thank you,
Zeb Hogan
