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.
Overcharging. not getting what I promised during adding a line
Hi, Awful experiencewith T-Mobile. Back in November, Iadded a line with iPhone 15 pro maxthat time the tmobile chat representative gave me a breakdownthat my bill would be $175 including fourlines and total 4 phone payment. But in December my bill came out much higher than 175$. In February 2 ofmy phone paid off and march 3rd phone was paid of but my bill instead of decrease it keep increasing. It's been 7 month i talk to serval times and show the tmobile chat they didn't listen and billing extra. I filed a complaint but no response from them. I followed up multiple but no feedback.
Have I been scammedon the $830 promotional credit?
Can anyone explain tome how the $830 trade in credit works when you upgrade your plan to the new 5G? Surprisingly,T Mobile can not and I still don't know what they gave me for my trade in value but it wasn't $830. The man in the store broke it down this way… pay taxes and fees on any phone, trade in eligible device, sign up for the New 5G rate plan and we deduct the $830 from your new phone choice. You pay the difference for 24 months. So for an iPhone 14 pro max with tax and activation paid up front,That leaves a $1099 for the phone minus 830 is 269. That is roughly $11 month for 24 months for the phone. So why is the monthly $20???
aple watch 50% off deal
I spoke with agent to switch my phone plan and he offered me free Apple Watch deal. After I agreed, he told me that it was 50% off. I was indecisive but since the value of Apple Watch was about $250 online, I agreed to purchase it and add $5 monthly charge for Apple Watch. I confirmed with him 3 times that it will be adjusted in the invoice. However, after 6 months, I'm still charged full price. I called t mobile about this issue two times and agent says they will fix it. I don't know if it was scam or what's going on here.600 off when adding a new line
When adding a new line and buying a phone for it, tmobile offers $600.99 off the phone total cost. It is sometimes lower for certain phones but there is generally a discount when adding a new line. Is this offer limited to one line only or can it apply multiple times? I´m trying to add two lines to my plan for a total of 3 and I´m getting a new phone for both of those lines. Is the deal limited to the first line I add or can I use it twice? ¡Gracias!
Trade-in offer costed me more?
To provide you with some background, I dont trade in my phone unless it's like an insane deal. I saw a deal on May 8, 2021 that looked something like this: T-Mobileis offering theiriPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro or iPhone 12 Pro MaxwithUp To $830 Off(via 24 Monthly Bill Credits) with aQualifying Device Trade-In. Available Phones (prices before applicable trade-ins or bill credits): Apple iPhone 12 minifrom $729.99 Apple iPhone 12from $829.99 Apple iPhone 12 Profrom $999.99 Apple iPhone 12 Pro Maxfrom $1099.99 Eligible DeviceTrade-in Value(must be in good condition): Get up to $830 off: Apple: iPhone 11, XS, XR, X, 8 I was had and iPhone 11 at the time and saw that I pretty much…don't have to pay like anything other than possibly activation and what not. That same day, I went to the Tmobile store downstairs from me and spoke w/ sales rep and I asked him at the start, do I have to pay anything today or over the next few months? and he said "you don't have to pay anything withthis trade-in". I was like…this is awesome, I'm about to walk out with a 1:1 trade-in. So after ringing everything up at the register, the I offered to pay ANYTHING that same day and the rep said I didn't have any outstanding charges and even said that I could get a new case with it. I have my new phone now and I didn't even have to pay a thing. First bill that came after was $8.54 more. Then the next and the next and all the bills after. The only difference I see on the bill? Under "Equipment" it says I received T574 2021 Apple Trade P6 of $26.05. These numbers and codes are gibberish to the average consumer and where are these numbers even coming from? I contacted support after a couple months after realizing this will be reoccuring for god knows how long…I attached the customer support's response when I asked them to clarify the charges: WHERE ARE THESE NUMBERS COMING FROM? The receipt I received said NOTHING about any of these. I fail to comprehend what this customer support is trying to explain. Nothing about these things were written anywhere a customer could see. I understood that I would have possibly received monthly credits but I also had offered to pay upfront any future charges. EITHER WAY, $830 trade-in credit? Nope. According to this customer rep, I owe a lot more and the reoccuring +$8.54 lasts for 24-months. This is absurd. Please correct me if I am interpreting the deal in error. Even if the deal was executed in this way, the sales rep shouldn't have denied any additional charges and could have at least explained these things to me when I had asked????????
