double billing
I've been with T-Mobile for 15 years and since they purchased PcMetro I thought I would receive the same good treatment as in the past.Well I went to the Paddock Mall on Aug 15th, 2019 and the problems started.I was overcharged on the activation by $30.00..I was charged $60. and had to travel to another store to pick up the phone.My bill which I have a receipt for was $214.15 but the cust service said she just turned in $133.90..the girl said she was giving us the rubber cases in case we dropped the phones and she would discount the car phone holder.To date my $30.00 dollar credit is out...Now T-mobile cut off my service the same day and closed my online account.NOW for the same service they want to charge me and I will wind up paying double for the service.As soon as I can I'm going to head for the exit..These business practices are bad for long term business..

your employee is the worst sells person I have ever met! this coming from a business
owner that was about to purchase a 230 dollar phone, however she didnt open the store on time when she did the music was blasting in the store I couldnt even hear her,
which she ignored me talking on her phone and and tryed to sell me a cheep phone.
not the one I was looking at or asked her about.
I walked out... theres no way I am going to support this employee with this sell...
WHAT A SHAME! ROB
if you care to save a customer with your network.
your employee on grant and oracle SUCKS! she lost your store business.
network
I have contacted Metro numerous times. Too many times to count about the network not working at times. I cant even use the map to get anywhere sometimes. Im really frustrated and Metro does not help at all. They say they will escalate my problem to an "engineer" but I have no solution. It seems like those tickets they write go directly to the garbage.
The last call I made, I tried to get a phone number to complain but the "supervisor" told me a phone number to complain doesnt exist. I would have to write a letter. Not even email. A letter? What is this 1950?
Time to start a Class Action Lawsuit against metro pcs and Tmobile. This a common practice with them Ive had 5 tickets within the last several months and requested arbitration over a month ago without being contacted on any of it. They throttle phones and I can prove it with their own service agents. Its time to subpoena those agents and all their records of complaints for this reason. Big CORPS are nothing but bullies with their money and its time to take some away from them. When they break there own rules and conditions the ones they have in place do not pertain to the customers either
I can attest to that. They say 4gb hi-speed and after that it slows down. 2 weeks before the end of the cycle, they tell me i've already used all 4gb, and slow everything down. Even though my phone metrics show only 3gb usage. Even though 1gb of usage is with Pandora, which should not count towards data, as per their music freedom. They just throttle your speeds for no reason, and give no accounting of how they come to know you have hit the 4gb limit, or how this usage has occurred. I am very disappointed for the way they are sucking our money and then f**king with us when it comes to proper speed and usage of data.
no phone calls are being received not being able to call out I can't even call the metro customer service representative. this is absurd.
I can not make phone calls I can not receive any calls either. I can't even call customer service . Something needs to be done now. Or I want money off my bill for not being able to use all of my unlimited plan. It's always something with metro. Not being able to contact the customer service line? That's not right and no customer should have to pay for a service they are not getting I pay 110$ for my phone bill for unlimited data talk and text. And I can not make one phone call or receive any. I have alot of medical issues going on right now and I have missed phone calls I'm sure . Because my phone keeps showing when I get a new voicemail but I can not even check my voicemail. So if I have gotten an urgent call I won't even know . And also won't even know when my services will be working correctly again. So it needs to be resolved and all customers having this issue should be allowed money off their bill. Because this is not unlimited.

complaint
I have been with your service since 2016 with no problems. In fact, I was even told that I had excellent credit for paying on time. Now, I'm very upset with the way your employees handle the situation. Very heartless couldn't even give a break. On Aug. 3rd, I had lost or misplaced my debit card. Call the bank right away. I was told it will take 5-10 business days in the mail. Called metro pcs to let them know my concerns about the payment ahead of time. I told them I will send a check but I worried that it will not get there on the due date that they don't charge me for a late fee. I also, to explain that I'm physically disabled wheelchair bound and live on my own. Explained, my phone must be on all times in case if something goes wrong with my wheelchair or to me. I got the feeling they understood and thanked me for letting them know ahead of time. My due date was on the 7th of Aug. Next day, Aug. 8th my phone was suspended not even 24 hrs. They didn't even give me 72 hrs. extension. I was so mad. I had no phone for 3-4 days. I noticed that they got payment on the 10th and phone was back on suddenly. I called, let them know, how upset I was with the services. All they did apologize which was the only thing they were good at. They told me they have to go by the policy. If that was the case, then why wasn't I given 72 hrs extension? Of course, they have nothing else to say but apologize. Unless you yourself experience being disabled, you have no know idea what disabled people go through every single day. We are challenged every day just to make through the day and hope that tomorrow it will be better. I'm not only asking for myself but the all disable that are going through same as me. There should be policy or law to keep the service on all times for disabilities. Not just for Blinds and Deaf but all disable. I hope you take my matter seriously and come up with a policy for all disabilities. Meantime, I will be calling to Metro Pcs to cancel my service tomorrow on Sept.6th. If anyone asks, I will not recommend this service to anyone because you just don't have the heart to care.

switching service
Was told that I was able to switch my service from one phone that's PCS to another phone that's PCS because they didn't have inventory at one store but wanted to complete the process yesterday today at a corporate store I am attempting to complete the switch and I'm told that there's additional fees that would not mention to me previously and also that I would have to wait for an additional month so I'm stuck with phones that I'm not happy with
customer service
My husband just went in 5 min ago and was asking about pricing on some phones. The first lady was rude and kept saying that they don't have the phones in. He kept saying he understands this and wanted the full price of them for future. She got another lady to assist who stated the same thing and he also said he just wants the full price. She told him not to yell. My husband is a loud person in general and was frustrated that they would not answer his questions. So he told her [censored] you as he was walking out the door..the second lady threaten to call police and as we pulled out she came out on the phone calling police.
Wednesday he got the number to call for replacement phone's. They representative on the phone didn't tell my husband his phone would be off until after he gave her our debit card number. She said it will take up to 10 days to get it credited. He called about the credit yesterday and was told another 10 days. You
guys need to train your representatives to be more cordial and respectful to customers. There was no need for her to call police. If anything they owe us an apology. They didn't get our sale. I hope some action is taken. My 5 yr old is upset and now is worried that police will end up at our door to take his dad to jail over poor customer service. That is unacceptable!
switching devices
On August 26, 2019 I call customer service to find out if a phone I had purchased online was able to be used on my metro account. I told lady on the phone that the phone I wanted to switch to was a Cricket wireless phone. She ask for the IMEI number and told me when we was done to take the Sim card out of my original phone and put it in the new device, and turn the phone on and to try to make a call. So I did what she said to do. The new phone needs a Network unlock code.. so my service didn't work. As soon as I could get to a phone with service, I call customer service again. The man on the phone could NOT speak understandable English. It was hard to understand. I requested for him to just switched my service back to the original phone. He said he had to text a security code to my phone number.. That is impossible to do, considering my phone doesn't work. Bottom line is, it is now August 30th and I still don't have my service back working. This is REDICULOUS. If this isn't resolved soon I will be switching my services to Metro PCS's copetetor.
phone service
I originally got a phone from MetroPCS in September 2018. I was quite excited because it was.my first monthly service plan. I had it one day. I got assaulted in Baltimore while attending an event (Tall ships and Navy jets).
I woke up in Johns Hopkins Hospital, a day later from a coma, but my Arista phone was gone). I hadn't even used it for a full day.
First thing Monday morning I reported to the store I got my phone from. I explained what happened, presented paper work as proof and requested a replacement phone. The CS rep, without any empathy) informed me I had to submit an insurance claim to get a new phone from Assurion.
I complained that I shouldn't have to pay anything. I didn't even use the phone or service because of the assault. She wouldn't budge.and was very nasty.
I contacted corporate and was told to go to the Maryland Corporate store (two of them). I did so, arriving early. The CS rep arrived and I explained my situation. The rep giggled, and said the following: "Oh, excuse me. I am not laughing at you. I am just being silly.". Here this rep was laughing at the fact I was assaulted, in a coma and was going through all this "stuff".
He proceeded to tell me there was nothing he could do and I told him I wasn't going anywhere until he called Philadelphia, spoke to Dominic in Customer Service. I had been without a phone (use it for work, doctors, etc.)
He then threatened to call the police on me and I encouraged him to do so. I eventually went outside to wait for police. They never came. I left and upon arriving home, went to library and filed another FCC complaint (2nd one).
Finally, give months later, Philadelphia corporate sent me a phone overnight, with 5 months service credit. I finally was whole, or so I thought. The phone worked for approximately two months until one day I got the following message, " Google Play Services does not exist on phone".
I thought, here we go again and I was correct. I contacted MetroPCS, T-MOBILE, Google, LG, reviewed settings and searched the Internet for resolution. I tried everything. Nothing worked. I cancelled the service, filed another FCC complaint and waited. Nothing. I then contacted MetroPCS. Nothing.
I finally was contacted by MetroPCS over Twitter. I then heard nothing. The rep changed jobs. Finally I hear from this gentleman, Isaac. I explained the situation and he insisted that because my account wasn't "active", MetroPCS couldn't do anything.
I contacted a lawyer and told counsel what had occurred over this past year. Total disregard for customer service. He explained to me that I had very good legal basis for a lawsuit against MetroPCS, T-MOBILE as ND now, Sprint.
I passed this information into Isaac and we are at a standstill. I explained to Isaac that I am not expending anymore "out of pocket" monies to restore service. I reiterated that this whole situation has been perpetrated as a result of poor customer service.
Before I initiate legal proceedings and file another FCC complaint (to he fourth within a year), I figured I would file a formal complaint with MetroPCS. I will await a response, but not long.

the foxx brand phone sold by metropcs by t-mobile
Metro by T-Mobile sells bait phones one of these phones is the Foxx phone. How this works is, the Foxx phone brand has a defect in it. The associates know about the defect but they still sell the phone because they had no choice but to sell the phone. I know this because an associate told me. I had to bring my Foxx phone in to the location 3 times within two weeks of buying the phone. The phone would go into sleep mode and it would just cut off. The first time it did it I saw it well maybe I did something wrong, but two weeks later it did it again. This time it only stayed awake like 30 seconds and then it will go to sleep whether I was working on the phone or not. I asked associate why would your cell phone knowing it had a defect in it, she because we have no choice. I brought the phone on August 8th, I asked the associate three questions. Have you ever sold this phone before? She said no Has anyone ever come back with a problem with this phone? She said no. So no one has ever come back saying they had a problem with this phone? To that she said no. The day I stepped back into the location was two weeks after I had brought the phone. She was working that day, she avoided me like the plague. Between the time I left home and the time I arrived at the store was maybe seven minutes. The phone had went into sleep mode by the time I got to the store the store associates could not get it out of sleep mode without some effort. I heard things like I would have never sold you this phone, I looked at the associate who had actually recommended and sold me the phone. She turned her head. Because it wouldn't stay out of sleep mode they gave me a new phone. Here is the problem they gave me the same brand phone. The next day I was back the problem was even worse. The store manager asked why did you buy this phone? I said because it was recommended to me? He said when did you buy this phone and who recommended this phone to you? I said I bought it here and one of your employees recommended it? He said describe that associate? I described her and he said oh I know who you talkin about. He worked on the phone instead if I had any problems to bring it back and they will give me another phone. I brought the phone back the next day the problems were even worse. This was when the associate dropped the bomb on me. The associates name was Asia and she told me we can give you another phone because you've already had your one upgrade. We can sell you a different brand but we'd have to charge you full price and plus we don't give refunds so we won't give you a refund for this phone. I said but I only had it for one day she said I know but that's MetroPCS by T-Mobile sales policy. So she said well I can give you a phone at a discount price if you willing to change your number I said okay. She informed me the new phone would be more but she could guarantee I would not be coming back because of the phone. She was right I like this phone but I had to keep the old phone and the old service because they don't do refunds even though they know that the Foxx phone is defective. So what I did was I call the 611 number I told them that I will be doing a chargeback on my credit card because I could not use the phone for my business but I explained why and I explained that I will be getting a more expensive phone from them. Because there's nothing wrong with the service the problem was in the phone. There was no corporate number I could call no corporate address I can call. They put the charge back on my bill and cut my phone off. I have been with Metro PCS for 12 years I've never had a problem with the phones like this. So my recommendation for people who want to get the service is that the service is walkable it's not the best but it's workable if you're on a budget but you should get your phone from Walmart or Best Buy at least then you can take back the phone if you have a problem. But please don't buy Foxx, Fox is a bait phone. The associates know about it they know you're going to have to come in and buy another expensive phone. And you will get no refunds and no help from MetroPCS you don't have a corporate number you can call to complain about the phone their service number, customer service number is for the service only. When you call that number they will claim not to know a corporate number or corporate address. The bait phones from Metro PCS by T-Mobile are deceptive, dishonest and downright despicable. I would never guess a company like Metro by T-Mobile would stoop so low. When this phone goes out I will not be buying another phone from Metro by T-Mobile I will get my phone from Best Buy or Walmart. So I wasted $92.21. I went on consumers Affairs website and I took that all in one Stars comments and there was a guy who bought the same brand phone I bought. That had the same problem. So it is in the brand and they know what they're doing. If you are going to buy a phone from Metro by T-Mobile on T-Mobile I know what you going to buy when you go in there do not listen to the associates because if you say you want to spend under $100, they are going to sell you a bait phone. When I went to report problems with my phone there were other people that had problems with their phone. So I say again please don't buy your phone from Metro by T-Mobile or T-Mobile. They will sell you a bait phone and then just wait for you to come and buy another phone.
samsung phone and the customer service
I have metro by t mobile as my phone and phone service provider. The phone that I have now is my first phone before this never had a phone. I usually go in store to change plans and pay my phone bill. The store at 1600 n federal hwy suite 7 33435 treated me absolutely terrible. They would not let me change my plan, and I did not pay my bill today sun Aug 25 is the day. They were so rude I think I am going to drop t mobile. I don't know his name but a young African American kid sent me on my way without help. It is 1:15 in the afternoon now so you can see who was working at that store on this day aug 25 2019 at that time. This is very unfortunate because they were rude to my friends too, so they might drop metro as well. This is a very serious complaint and I hope it will be taken as that. I know companies hate to lose any business but in this case you should seriously consider looking into this.
price increases on everything!!
We originally chose Metro Pcs due to the affordable phones and ease of access for upgrades. The prices of phones has now skyrocketed by 50% ever since TMobile officially took over. Any self service item that was free to do now is considered a full service item and we are now forced to pay a $15 surcharge for an inperson or over the phone transaction. I purchased an unlocked phone from another company and thought I could buy a $10 SIM card and activate the phone myself. WRONG! I paid $10 for the sim card and was forced to pay $15 for the sim activation. What would have been a $10 transaction now costs $27 which includes tax. I'm slowly starting to loathe the changes.
internet connection speeds
I pay for unlimited internet, 4G LTE. I live in NYC, a major metropolitan area. I have a fairly new Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge plus, a flagship phone boasting powerful graphics and processors as of a few years ago. My YouTube videos, independent of the different time of day that I try to play them, default to 144p and do not play above 360p without heavy buffering. Regular browsing and image search is slow, and Google maps is unreliable when I am out. This is again independent of peak network traffic times. MetroPCS should not be allowed to provide whatever service they please, as consistently slow speeds are not 4G. I need an adjustment on my average speeds and would like to actually use my phone's capabilities.
galaxy j2
Took my J2 in to corporate location at 34th street and Archer Road in Gainesville because of setting problems. The employee was NOT discreet in handling my passwords. My family was with me and he just expected me to rattle my PIN off in front of them. When I got home I realized they switched my 16gb phone for an 8 gig. I am furious. When I called to ask about network connectivity, he was flippant and arrogant. I am disabled and just had a spinal tap. I couldn't stand straight, so he took that opportunity to rush me out the door. Better believe I'm showing up with law enforcement today. Blatant THEFT!
cell phone
I am being charged for services I did not receive. After I paid my bill the next day they turned services off because I owed them more money for an extension that should have been free. After speaking with the representative she tired to convenience me that I was paying for a change in payment date. If the phone was on, how was I playing for a change in payment date .
Payment not received/refunded and poor customer service.
On 7/27/19 I went to Metro PCS located at 1015 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd Los Angeles CA 90037 to make a payment for a deductible to get a new phone. I presented the cashier (Edgar) with the document from Assurance wireless with the deductible number and all information the representative may need. Edgar said ok, and started to process the payment. He charged me $59.00. I thought the $9 was just a convenience fee. I waited a few days for the confirmation email from the insurance company stating that they received the payment. Nothing came. I went back up to Metro PCS (same address as above) and followed up on what happen. I was informed that the cashier who handled my transaction (Edgar) placed the funds on the phone account and not the insurance account even though I specifically stated and showed him I was paying a deductible. I provided them with the receipt and any information they needed. The customer service representative informed me there was nothing they could do and the manager (Mr. Kim) was not in until tomorrow morning. I then contacted Metro PCS customer service on the phone. The representative stated he would submit for a check to be refunded to me in the amount of $50, he would cancel the convenience fee $3, and $6 dollars would be credited to the account. He stated that my check would be mailed to me within 5 business days and to refile the claim with Assurance, since they cancelled the last claim. The check never came. On 8/16/19 I contacted MetroPCS customer services to see what was going on with the account. The representative informed me that 2 weeks ago when they process the refund, the check had failed meaning that they denied the refund. No one contacted me to inform me of this until I called 8/16/19. The representative asked me to go to the store I made the payment, so as we were on the phone, I drove to the store which is 5 minutes away from me. I got to the store and the representative in the store and the representative on the phone could not work together to resolve my issue. The manager was still not at the store. I then asked the phone representative to speak to a supervisor. The representative kept telling me over and over that there was not a supervisor available, they are in a meeting. I informed the representative that I would wait. Finally, I got "Supervisor" Christian #908505 on the line. First he tried to tell me that the bill was not paid and the money would go to that. I told him that was not true. He then went over all of the past transactions and cleared up his false statement. The next payment isn't scheduled till August 28th. Then Christian#908505 informed me that the next steps were for me to call Assurance Insurance back and tell them about the mistake MetroPCS made and see if they would take the money from the MetroPCS account and add it to the insurance account. I've already contacted Assurance twice already going off what MetroPCS is telling me. I asked Christian#908505, since it was the fault of the representative, why couldn't MetroPCS contact Assurance and inform them because it would be better coming directly from the company. Christian claimed that MetroPCS could not make any outside phone calls. Christian#908505 then informed me of another option of escalating the situation. I asked exactly what escalating the situation means. He stated contacting the corporate office to have them resolve the issue. Christian#908505 again claimed he could not call out from MetroPCS and the corporate office only offers a PO Box. I called a number online listed for corporate and they informed me that I would have to go into the corporate office and speak to someone directly. Christian #908505 stated "well if that's what you have to do, I can call from here", and I responded that "the closest office he gave me was in Tustin (2hours away from me)". I asked Christian#908505 specifically 3 times "Are you telling me that if there is an issue beyond your control, you cannot get in contact with the corporate office?" He asked me to hold briefly and then got back on the line informing me he was about to call the corporate office. Christian #908505 informed me he was on the phone with someone and he wanted me to speak to them after he was done confirming some things. I waited on hold and all of a sudden a MetroPCS survey came on the line asking me about my customer service call I just had. So not only was I on hold for 2 hours, I did not get a resolution because they ended my call. I called back and spoke to another representative (Sharel #502256) who could not get Christian #908505 back on the line even though I provided his ID number. Sharel #502256 asked me what the issue was so I had to explain everything all over again for the 3rd time today. She tried to tell me they would credit the account but I informed her I do not need a credit, I need the new phone. Sharel #502256 then tried to throw the same thing in my face about a bill being do. I explained to her to look at the records and she will see that the bill was paid and next date billed is August 28th. Sharel #502256 stated she was following up with an account specialist to make sure she didn't get anything wrong. Sharel #502256 saw the bill was paid and next payment date would be August 28th. Sharel #502256 then told me all she could do is submit for the check again. I asked since I was not informed about the last failed check, how would I find out if this check request goes through. Sharel #502256 stated she would contact me back on the alternate number I provided. She also informed me I could call back for status 2 days later ConID#[protected] which will be on 8/18/19. Sharel #502256 stated that it is not a guarantee that this check would go through either. So I still have to wait for a resolution although I have been waiting since July 27th.
I have been dealing with this since July 27, 2019. This has taken time out of my day that I have to work, to spend hours on the phone and gas to drive back and forth to the store. I'm extremely frustrated that just because they think the bill hasn't been paid they can make that an excuse of not giving me a refund. Christian #908505 made every excuse to tell me they could not make any outside calls, but all of a sudden, Christian #908505 can call the corporate office and the MetroPCS store I went to and Sharel #502256 can contact me back on my alternate number. They send texts and postal mail about Metro deal, plans, and bill due, so why can't they not inform their customers if claims they file are not processed or failed. Sharel #502256 provided all the great customer service she could. I don't like the fact that Christian #908505 kept lying to me about things and hung up on me. I would like the new phone that I initially paid the $50 for, an apology for all the lies Christian spewed out, and a credit on my account for how much time I've spent trying to get this fixed. Also MetroPCS needs to come up with a better policy.
metro pcs employee poor customer service
Today, August 16, 2019, I went to go ahead to the metro pc store on 3955 W Roosevelt Rd, Chicago, IL 60624, to transfer my old number to my new phone/ getting my old phone cut off. I go in and realize that there was a old man having a hard time with the rude employee who was scamming him over and not even helping him one bit charging him extra on money, having that customer walk off with less cash. The employee was also being rude and very disrespectful towards another customer charging them for 40 dollars to switch over to a new SIM card (and mind you its 10 dollars to get a brand new sim card). The customer who was coming in to switch her old sim card to her new phone had people with her (they also find him rude as well), one of the customers friends did not like how ill-mannered he was, the customers only argue with him for a bit before leaving telling him he was rude and have poor way of helping people. All he would do is smug his attitude in the customer face, raise his voice for no reason, and talk over them like doesn't give damn about their excuse for his snotty behavior. He did the same to me when I told him hes going to get himself fired if he doesn't change his tone towards' customers who want a simple change to their phone. He yelled, complained, and didn't care what I was going to say, yet he was a bit racist in a way as well, saying hes "not from chicago" nor "america", hes "fed up with poor blacks and their excuse". Hes the exact reason why the store has less customers due to his poor customer service traning, lack of respect, impolite voice tone, talking over customers, scamming people out of their money, and doesn't promise his customers deals. I did not transfer my old number to my new phone because he was going to charge me 20 dollars, last time he told me to wait 14 days for a discount to change my number and have it lowered to 10 dollars, even through it was suppose to be free at charge if I get a new phone. Overall, this man has to go, I don't appreciate his attitude, his voice tone, and his poor customer service knowledge nor people who having deal with his behavior. No customer deserves to be yelled at, dealing with snotty attitudes and get scammed out of their money, people should treat each other with respect no matter what, even by giving them a great customer experience. The store is located on pulaski and roosevelt road.
Not asking for my security pin
I called metro pcs because my name Id wasnt working and the agent never ask me for my security pin she just ask what my full name i said why you worried abt my name and you anit ask for my security pin. she said i could look it up by your name or phone number i called. Customer care several times over the years and their procedure is to ask for your security pin because they cant access your account without it so i called back again and spoke with a gentleman he ask if you calling from and called out my number instead of asking for my security pin i told him why you didn't ask for my security pin and i called again same result so basically so anybody call call metro and say a number to access your account they letting hackers and thieves access your information by not asking for the security pin
