disibillity discrimination from tmobile

Hello my name is KIONNA JONES,'. I entered a T-Mobile store with my mother in law and boyfriend to start two new lines on our own. Originally I was on a friends plan and I decided to part ways after my phone was paid off . I worked with TWO store managers by the name of Nadia  and Ashley . Both managers worked adequately with me and provided me with the  best options to start my line . The promotion they offered  was half off on a iPhone 12 and with a trade in I would get an iPhone 14 on T-Mobile if I traded in my iPhone 12 max pro . Everything was perfect , they took my mothers information and mine so that the account would be in her name and I would be the authorized user so we could also get the 55+ plan . Everything was set , I only  had to wait a few days to trade my phone in so that I could fix the crack they told me I had to fix   Before accepting the phone to activate my line . After receiving my new phone, I realized my number was the same . As you may not know I am a paraplegic , I went back to the store the same to see why my number was the same and to make sure everything was correct . Nadia, whom is a store manager informed me that the store may have not changed the phone number and to contact customer care . When I contacted customer care , they informed me that they see two lines on my account and they would fix the number appropriately.  A few days go past , and I realize the number is still the same and is also popping up as my old friend name . I called customer came multiple times and also went back and forth to the store . At this time tmobile had promised this would be resolved , they offered me credits and even offered a low bill due to the mishaps  (which I had receive md nothin). While trying to figure out the issue , T-MOBILE informed me that the line was never in my mom name , they cancelled the correct number that was suppose to be line and they could not find my trade in or credit that should have been placed on my account . After calling multiple  times , hearing multiple promises on a recorded line  tmobile admitted to messing up the whole process of my account . Instead of removing me off my old friends account they placed EVERYTHING on her line , they found my trade in on her line and now they are saying they apologize for not putting the phone in my mothers account and there's nothing they can do . I've been calling T-Mobile for  a. Month straight since I have had this phone and nothing has been fixed .

Cheeny, a customer care rep explained to how she understood my  frustration and she had seen where T-Mobile messed up my account and she promised  a call back that I never received .

Francis / Jim I spoke both  with in regards to rechanging the responsibility to my mothers name which should have been done when we first purchased the phone and it still wasn’t done over the phone even after taking her social and her name . 

Adrece , whom is a supervisor informed me that even if I ask for the calls to be pulled and they hear that T-Mobile has admitted to messing up my account it is nothing that will be done . She informed me that as a customer herself the best thing to do is to remove myself from T-Mobile and start the process over . 

Brandon , a customer rep offered me multiple promises and credits but it was a limit to how long it would be . He told me he could credit my account for the trade in phone and keep the promotions that I have , he also informed me that he could change my account to the 55+ plan but it would be until I am able to verify and once I verify I wouldn't be able to because since TMOBILE did not place the correct name on the account it would not work . 
I am highly frustrated and feel I have been discriminated against being that I am in a wheelchair and treating me with such negligence. I asked customer care to remove my service if they are not able to fix the lines as promised .  The bill I would have been receiving was 110 dollars plus the equipment installment that T-Mobile would be paying . This is unfair to have to stay in a contract that T-Mobile has messed up . There was no understanding or empathy for T-Mobile running me from the T-Mobile store to calling customer care as a disabled customer .  I am writing this letter to see whom or I can speak with or whom I need to contact for legal action to be taken for T-Mobile's negligence and discrimination of a wheelchair user and false advertising and soliciting of account holders accounts

  • you’ll need to contact Tmo either through calling in (tier 1 support) or through one of their social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter (tier 2 support)..the later would be the recommended method to take.

     

     

    with that being said..how is their negligence somehow turning into discrimination?

  • Read this!!!!Hello to whom it may concern. My name is Karl Veal. I have a very small podcast on all apps and I have come across a story regarding Tmobile and their operations when it comes to closing customer accounts. I have a gentleman with screen shots from as low as messaging agents all the way up to high up managers at tmobile displaying absolutely disgusting behavior towards this individual concerning very eye opening dealings with his account personally. The genteman has everything including agents adding phone lines with promised equipment limit doubling and taking the phone orders for these new lines and then sending him SIM cards and a message saying hie equipment limit actually was not doubled but the request was denied. Same account has screen shots of conversations regarding a security breach on his account in 2022. A scam artist had actually put in a claim through assurant their phone insurance company and had his phone turned off and a new phone shipped to him in Nyc with the customers own credit card on file with Tmobile. Months later the gentleman had a security breach on his account with Bay and he had reached out to both companies for any information to provide his bank. Just in case it may have been the same account intruder and both companies refused his repeated requests for any information on the name the phone was sent to or the address it was sent to. Any information to help his banks investigation. Really refused any information about even if his account was refunded for this incident because his bank could not confirm. Requests for a formal investigation have still to this day gone unanswered. As recently as today after a months long investigation into missing phones on his account, the gentleman was promised credit on his account that again is acknowledged through screenshots and notes on his account for the time spent on the phone with said company and the inconvenence of an investigation that was promised to last 24 to 48 hours. Giving a little more detail about this specific incident, he reported a delivery marked delivered that he actually had not received. This was reported January 5th and a ticket to start an investigation was not filed until January 9th. Let the company informed him this 4 days tickets had been filed and the company was hard at work. Spending as much as five hours a day those four days calling and messaging the company and the delivery service UPS. On January 17th the customer had to reach out to UPS for a completely different shipment and informed them of his disapproval of damaging his current package through amazon and the wait on their investigation with tmobile a couple weeks prior. The manager in charge of lost packages informed him he was unaware the customers order had not gone as planned and nothing had been filed or notified with UPS. Just today after getting enough of their behavior for the 2nd time. First time ending with a $1600 bill that was refused to be lowered for all the mistakes on the account and forced to come back or erase the bill if he didn't port back. Only this time the gentleman got a port code and informed the company of his intentions to leave. Listed all grounds to leave on his account and then ported the same number and device he had done so on November 10th of 2023 and returned November 24th. Looking at the behavior of every agent he came in contact with this morning im sure any current and future customers mind would be blown. Harrassment and bullying has been shown before but never in this manner. He is denied access back into his account after giving the necessary information to gain access to the account with agents even confirming his account has been confirmed. The minute he asked why his device won't let Verizons sim on the phone and confirm he would like to close the account and pay it off right away suddenly the very same agents can't confirm his account when they are shown to be the department to handle this issue. Tell him he can only call when they are aware his phone will no longer make calls,  will not send email confirmation to his email on the account after they repeatedly say the account is closed but will not show hime the final bill until he gives his credit card information in the same secure form 3 agents in a row insisted they don't use to verify account can suddenly be used for credit card information.  Information provided to the company include his name, address on file, email on file, account pin, account number, birthdate and verification emails he could have easily accepted. All of this information was provided for the agents to gain access but was continually denied to the customer when he asked about the decrepency of being aloud to transfer his same number and same device in November exactly 11 days after receiving the device on a brand new payment plan and why suddenly his phone is blocked and the the phone itselfs balance is $200 plus down from before and actually on the exact payment plan that was never paid on late and actually his account bills never have once been paid late without ooutsideinterference from tmobille mistakes and his own accounts hacking. Suddenly that same phone needs to be paid off in full before they will allow Verizons sim to be put on it. This same phone that almost at full price was aloud to port from tmobile into Verizon along with 2 other almost full priced newly put on financing device plans devices. Not only that all received new Verizon SIM cards and when ported back all had to be shipped back to tmobile SIM cards. Suddenly this said to be policy on every single account with a device on a payment plan on tmobile. They will not send said policy after multiple requests or let him see the changes they claim to have made on his account. I can't help but wonder how many times this has happened to guests all over the world and unaware agents would verify the account and transfer to correct department to get  the issues taken care of and once he asks for the account to be closed and access to said confirmation info he is told numerous times his account count be validated. One agent was asked for a manager I counted ten times and the agent refused and before he ended the talk abruptly the agent deleted every word spoke between them. Two agents actually did this after displaying behavior that I know is illegal and can be proven as illegal. I want to get other victims of this behavior to tell their stories and their cases to interested parties and be able to be heard and compensated fully for the and im sure worse experiences that haven't been reported. This same customer has reached out to the fcc, and etc, and his states attorney generals office and is still waiting on results of their investigation and all tmobile agent made aware of this do not seem to be intimidated by their consequences. So I want this to get as big as possible with what exactly happens when this behavior can be proven in screenshot form and from simply gaining a  attorney and demanding those chats in fully. If any go the chats differ in missing sentences or in any way from the screenshots. What has their consequences been? And is this taught behavior through the company and agents in charge. How far up the company is this behavior known and not changed. When do they admit responsibility or how far does it actually have to go. If any of your reporters are willing to help me help you get this story investigated I do have all necessary information in screenshots and the comer is ready to take this to court or advice me off reporters who they know are willing to do this story please email me back at karlveal@gmail.comand please give the first episode of my podcast a listen again caller Live To Tell Podcast with Karl Veal for an idea of how I tell stories and like them to come across. Thank you so much for your time and I look forward to hearing back………Karl
