Logging in turn off text
How can i turn off needing a text and code when logging into Tmobile. I lost my phone last night and could not report it lost because I could not bypass the text code portion to get into my account. I called Tmobile and they could not help me because I did not have my account number and could not access it because I had to have the code sent to my phone which was lost.
Device returned in July only just now recieving information they did not recieve it.
Hello, This is a series of questions as well as a conversation to have on record. On November 22, 2022 I recieved a text message that I was being charged $370.00 for a home internet device non-return fee. I spoke with a representative over the phone immediately as I had no clue what this charge was. I also checked in a store and was told that this charge was from a device non-return fee for the home internet. However, I had returned the device within the 20 days back in July and had never recieved a text, email or statement until this point that the device had not been recieved. The Rep agreed that it was bizaree I hadn't recieved any kind of notice and no matter how many times we both put in the tracking number we just recieved an error. I checked my emails, texts, etc.Nothing else. After filing a form for this situation to be investigated with the phone rep I was told I would have to wait 5-10 business days (plus holidays which is fair) and I agreed. Once the call ended I did some research trying to figure out anything. I called UPS (where the return label was meant for), The UPS store's box I had dropped it off at, USPS, and the local post office. Come to find out the UPS stores drop off box was actually a USPS drop box and so the device had been put through their system but I was told if USPS or the local post get anything from UPS they immediately return it. Which could explain the delay. Also that after 120 days UPS no longer keeps track of tracking numbers and after 60 daysyou cannot file a claim which would explain the error. Finally, I dialed the UPS 1888 number which is an automated machine it's customers use to track boxes and it actually gave me a date, time, and place. I checked the label and it was delivered to the warehouse on November 15th. I quickly called back and explained everything to another rep and she made note of it for me but said since the form had already been filed I would still have to wait for the follow up on November 30th. Which I agreed to since it was still within the 15 day return window the text had given me and my bill wouldn't be due until December 18th. Come the 30th I recieved my call and was told the that the search came up inconclusive so the situation was out of their hands. The rep worked very hard to try and give me a solution and explained since I did have that phone call saying it was returned to the warehouse that myaccount should be updated and that we could remove autopay from my account that way I am not charged. Our call was cut short due to service issues (I was traveling to work and that in-between point is just spotty) but the autopay was removed. I called just a short-time ago today and spoke with a third rep. I explained the situation and was set up with another follow up for the 15th of December, a collections hold on the charge (since the $370 [$390 after taxes] hit my tmobile account on the 28th), and with this hold I have until the 20th of December for the warehouse to update the status of the device. I was informed that the warehouse is backed up at the moment and they are still working on returned devices since September. After this long situation here are my questions: Why was I not informed the device had not been recieved within the 20-30day return window? Why was I charged nearly four months later? Why was I onlycharged 7 days after the ups system reported the device had been delivered on November 15th? Why did the charge still hit my account despite the warehouse being backed up since September and how was the team unable to at least locate the device in the system? Why am I still being held responsible for this charge when I cannot recieve at least a ballpark estimate for when the warehouse can locate this device whenit has been at the property since November 15th, and wasreturned with a return shipping label since July 17th? And IF the device is not found within the window between now and December 20th I will be held responsible for the charge and will have to pay the $390 dollar bill. All phone representatives were very kind and did their best to help me and I know a lot of these questions are above them to answer yet I was given no opportunities to try and discuss this with a supervisor, etc. Which is very frustrating when you are dealing with this much money and an assured fact the device was returned with evidence, a tracking number, emails, calls, dates, etc. The minute I was aware of that charge I called. I'm an independent college student, working part time, financially supporting myself and have not recieved any kind of outside financial support since I was 16. I don't have $390 to give up over something that I know for a fact was returned and really just need any level of reassurance that this device will be found.
T-mobile Scam
We switched from Verizon to T-Mobile on October 4, 2023 in Richmond, Indiana. The store did not have the iPhone that we wanted in stock. T-Mobile shipped the phone to my house and requested I ship my phone to their facility. I printed the tracking number that was provided by T-mobile and shipped my old phone to the facility. The tracking number indicates that the phone was received by their facility. T-Mobile has failed to credit my account thus voiding the promotion we signed up under and charging us over $800. I have tried to connect with Tmobile numerous times over the phone and in the store and no solution has ever been provided. T-Mobile fails to provide anything in writing indicating they will honor the promotion we signed up under and still showing an outstanding balance. This is a scam and I would like to hold T-Mobile accountable for their shady actions.
