porting disaster

I signed up for T-Mobile service on 8/11 as I was preparing to move to a new location where my old provider didn’t have good service. 
 

First, red flag we have IPhones that don't take a SIM card, yet the representative insisted she had to send me 5 SIM cards. Then the address is a new build and she claimed that UPS couldn't find the address so I needed an alternate address for them to send them to.  Needless to say I got the SIM card days later and when trying to activate surprise surprise I didn't need them.

Second issue I had 5 lines, 4 numbers from Alaska and one number from Virginia, we are a military family. After 2.5 hours of being on the phone with T-Mobile who insisted it was AT&T's fault and vice verse I get told because they don't have service in that part of Alaska that I can't keep my 4 phone number and they can't be ported in.  
 

So of course the 5 virtual prepaid rebates were denied on the basis I did not port my numbers in. Well I tried, one was successfully ported and they denied it too. 

Just starting this new plan with T-mobile and needless to say I am disappointed and I've been misled and lied to. The first untruth was that they checked and my numbers were able to be ported.  Did they really check or just wanted my business.

The second untruth was that I would get a prepaid card for new service. The rebates were all denied and they said it was because I didn't port in my numbers. Well I ported in 1, the other 4 couldn't be and that's not my fault. 
 

So I have no rebates, and lost my phone number that I’ve had for 6 years.
