How to get a hold of Spam department
I would like to get a hold of the T-Mobil spam department and not go through customer service. T-Mobil's customer support via a phone call isn't helpful when T-Mobil has internally blocked your number from sending text messages. They try to go through their checklist to fix things on my device when my device isn't the issue. I send up to 200+ messages very quickly with the same or similar messages to friends and family each Holiday. T-Mobile ends up blocking my number from sending text messages. So I can receive text messages, but I can't send them unless it is to internal T-Mobil numbers like 1112. This makes it very difficult to get any work done if I need to text someone who has text me. T-Mobil engineering department that configures Spam block has their settings creating false/positives. A number shouldn't be blocked for sending up to 200+ messages quickly over 7-8 days per year (Holidays). I am told it will be blocked for up to 10 days with me currently on the 5th day. I would understand if I did this everyday or even multiple times per week, but blasting out 200+ message on Holidays 7-8 times per year and getting your number blocked is very annoying. Annoying enough now that I am considering using another service provider even with me being with T-Mobil for the past 24+ years (same number). It would be great if T-Mobil created a web link on your account to request unblocking your number with the ability to provide an explanation. It would be even better if the engineers came up with better rules to actually block people that are spamming instead of creating false positives disrupting paying customers.
Misleading T-Mobile Offer Resulted in Higher Monthly Bill and Unwanted Lines
Two months ago, I had 9 lines on my T-Mobile account, and on August 24, 2024, I reached out to chat support to remove one line. At the time, I mentioned to the agent that I had two additional lines that might join the account if there were any suitable deals or offers available. My bill for 9 lines was $245, and I emphasized that I didn't want to increase my monthly bill. The agent informed me about a "buy one, get one free" offer, explaining that if I removed one line and added the two new lines, my bill would remain the same at $245. This offer made it financially feasible for me, so I proceeded with the changes based on the agent's assurance that my monthly payment wouldn't increase. However, the following month, I discovered that my bill was $280, not $245 as the agent had promised. I verified this with a copy of the chat, proving that the agent had misrepresented the offer and the final cost. I then visited T-Mobile support four or five times to resolve this issue, but each time, they apologized for the "miscalculation" yet insisted the bill would stay at $280 for 10 lines, leaving me with two extra lines and an additional $35 on my monthly bill. If the agent had disclosed that the final cost would be $280, I would not have added the two lines. This misrepresentation effectively scammed me into increasing my plan, resulting in an unwanted burden.T-Mobile only cares about new customers
I've been a customer for nearly 25 years and that kind of loyalty is rewarded with NOTHING! They could care less about existing customers. They wanted $600 down on IPhone 16 Pro Max even with a trade in. That's why I'm leaving for AT&T who offered the same iPhone 16 Pro Max PLUS the latest iPad Pro (13 inch) both with 512GB storage and both with no money down.Worst customer service
Tmobile became the worst customer service carrier since they became TMobile USA. The original TMobile customer service was not bad at all. The TMobile USA has the worst, I mean, the worst of all customer service of all any other carriers. Once you ported your numbers out of TMobile, that's it, they don't want to help you. They find all kinds of excuses not being able to help you. They keep telling you to call this and that, and when you call them, they told you to go to Store, etc. they keep bouncing you around until you give up calling or inquiring. Plus once your service is not with TMobile any longer, you loose the online access to billing in order to update the billing address for the credit proration. I don't know why people keep switching over to TMOBILE?My account was deleted.
My account was deleted, while im deployed in the middle east, for seemingly no reason.I cannot make phone calls.I cannot show up to a store with my ID to make a new account. For some reason T mobile does not have a support email. How do i fix this? Or has T-mobile decided to cut my cell service with no way to fix it for absolutely no reason?
How Can T-mobile get away with Stealing & NEVER resolve issues, only promising to have a Supervisor Call back but Never Do?
Wow! T-mobile is a bunch of thieves! It seems they are known to make deals in store and sell promotional offers that never seem to translate to your bill. Then they claim those offers never existed & meanwhile you are out your equipment you previously traded & now have lost the unlimited phone plans you had been grandfathered in using for previous 7 years. Only to be unable to get any manager on the phone to return your call as promised by the reps you have repeatedly wasted HOURS with on the phone! Run don't walk - RUN away from such unethical practices! I am no reading many similar stories here online exactly asit happened to me AFTER I've been with the T-mobile company for 7 years + already. My account was on a set-it and forget it but we went in to purchasenew phones at Christmas. Instead of simply allowing us to buy 2 phones billed full price at $33 each per mo(to increase our bill $66 each month total) - wewere up sold a whirlwind of complicated promo dealsbased on sales promotions pressured by the store sales reps. These new promosrequired adding a new line, trading in a iPhone XR, and upgrading to the Magenta MAX to receive a BOGO phone offer & receive aSamsung Galaxy phone discount (that we weren't even really interested in along with promotional earbuds that we knew we would never use) but we were told that this was a no brainer, since tiding their special promos,our bill will increase only $53 instead of $66 as we intended but with the promos. Claimingnow we would not only get the 2 phones, we'd get an extra phone and extra earbudsfor even LESS than the $66 we were willing to pay full price for,after thecredits were appliedon the account monthly. At checkout in the store, notonly were no earbuds insideour bag, we were charged for them on our first bill which had no promo credits and had increased $160 per month to $325. It doubled. This new bill drastically increased and wasover $100 more than agreed,plusthey turned off our Netflix & our HotSpotstopped working in this "plan upgrade!" Unfortunately I was hospitalized with Covid immediately after Christmas and the overage billing went on for months while I was unavailable to reach out and it continued to be auto-draftedfrom our bank just as it had on our account for 7 years, never once being late. After months of overcharges myhusband tried to call on my behalf while I was still on a ventilator knowing the company wascharging more than we were promised and we received far less than promised. They would not give him access to the account to discuss. After 5 months I was well enough to tend to this matter on my own & inquired why I was being over charged for both all new iPhones with no promotion credit being applied and why I was being charged for the two earbuds that were not received & my plan was increased for no benefit & I've now paid $500+ in overpayments! it took repeated phone calls but in June a rep was kind enough to walk through the entire mess and wasaware that errors were made & promised a called back from a supervisor. One did call me backand claimed they will take care of the errors and we itemized the over charges but promised another call back 24-48 hours to determine the exact amount of the credit. I never received that call back and instead of receiving the near $600 in overpay credits, I was yet againauto-deducted for the erroneous overcharges of$325 month charge AGAIN the next month, now a total of $700 of overpayments. Once again this2 hour phone calls wastefully took all my energy for zero delivery on promises. It was ultimately a literal waste of my breath as I meanwhile still fight through physical therapy after months living on a ventilator machine. Isimply want to stop wasting my time calling T-mobile for empty promises. I called the next month again & reached another rep in July 2022 who escalated to a supervisor who called back after 24-48 hours only to advise me 7 months later that I am not eligible for any of the promotions promised. That supervisor told me those promotions didn't even exist! Which I know is untrue because I looked them up online inside the T-mobile store at Christmas time to ensure I was not being made empty promises. These were real promotions that really existed on the website and we really complied with all the details to be eligible. I asked why I would have given them an iPhone XR then, and changed my plan from an $160 phone plan (already an unlimited plan) up to a $230 per mophone plan only to receive ZERO phone promotions?This holds no logic. Apparently they think I just gave them a iPhone device for no reason & willy-nillyincreased my plan just to also pay full price for both iPhones and pay full price for ebuds I never even received. Then was told I would have really needed to add TWOlines to be eligible for the free BOGO iPhone. Why in the world would I do that? I already haveone line sitting on our account that is complete unused with ZERO DATA or zero activity used each month. This is a completely unneeded line that is so unused I don't even know it's phone number &have repeatedly desired to have it turned off. Yet these reps think I wouldagree to paying $50 per month per line x 2 toadd 2 lines on our acct that we don't use? Sure let's add $100 wastefully onto the account per monthwhen I could have simply bought both phones outright at full price for $33 each per month? This makes no sense. And apparently I threw in giving them an phone XR to boot, just for fun? C'mon. Finally understanding that nobody would agree to this and it's very obvious that I was promised something different, I was adamant to speak to a supervisor that could review the previous calls to complete the promises previously made or to find my check-out paperwork that would summarize the promotions and plans that I agreed to in the store. I was promised a call back in 24-48 hours from a supervisor and still have heard nothing back. They get away with empty promises & you can not even reach these representatives back after they fail to deliver their solutions as promised since all they do is message you their contact infoname "EsmileDwayneE" by text after each call, claiming you can reach them back butyou absolutely can never reach them back & they also do not call you back as promised - so instead nothing gets resolved and you continue paying indefinitely a wrong overcharge amount on auto-pay. Until of course, you finally remove your account from auto-pay just as I finally had to do - in order to stop their license to steal. With T-mobile having access to draft my account on auto-pay and their ability to charge any amount they desire without upholding the promotions they promise and adding new lines that are unused, stealing old devices without any credits, and adjusting to more expensive plans - they have taken upwards of $700 too much from my account and will not follow through to rectify. My only recourse was to remove their access to auto-payand now immediately a text comes through that my "bill has now increased an additional $25" since my $25 bill credit I've received for thefor past 7 years,will no longer apply without auto-pay.
T-Mobile Bait and Switch scam on December 2021 "Free" upgrade to IPhone13 + airpods
My Family has been scammed by T-Mobile! 1st mistake: In early November we switched from AT&T to T-Mobile. 2nd: Mistake: Fell for the so called "Free" IPhone 13 upgrade scam! I traded in/sent them my perfect condition i-phone 12 pro max for a i-phone 13 pro max and was told I would received $1000 in installment credits over 30 months I traded in/sent them my wife's perfect condition i-phone 12 profor a i-phone 13 proand was told I would received $1000 in installment credits over 30 months I'm now being charged$36.67- 15.50 credit for each phone. So being charged $21.17 for each phone per month. If you dothe math they gave me $465each for my phones. The promotion was $1000 credit on any I-phone 12! They lied! My local store employees verbally guaranteed we would get the full $1000 because that was the promotion! I'm still fighting to get the full credits. Next step is filing a complaint with Better Business and taking legal action filing aclass action lawsuit. If you've experienced something similar with this promotion they ran in Dec. 2021 I would love to here your comments.
Lied to about promotion
On December 4, 2022, I went tomy local T-mobile store looking for promotion deals to see if I could get a trade-in upgrade for my wife's phone. After talking to one of the employees about their current deals, they employee promised me that if I switchfrom my current plan Magenta to Magenta MAX that I would get a $800 trade-in credit towards an Iphone 14. I told her it is a great dealand was baited into switching my phone plan. She made the switch official that day (Dec 4, 2022) and told me to come back on December 6, 2022 to make the trade-inbecause the plan swapwouldnot be effective until then. When I arrived 2 days later on the 6th, I was told that there were no such deal by another employee and the current plan they currently offer is a $400 trade-in credit. Long story short, I end up reverting my plan back to Magenta and was charged for the Magenta MAX plan although I only had it for 2 days. Next time before making a switch, I would ask for a written contract. This is absolutely unacceptance and no one should be charged $40 more due to incompetent employees/false promotions.
