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 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.
The Elusive Veteran Status
Sooo I've been with T-Mobile since 2008. Initially I was on my ex husbands plan but got my own once we divorced in 2014. I'm a veteran. I've either been IN the military or a veteran since starting service with T-Mobile. My drivers license that is scanned each and every time I walk into the T-Mobile store has VETERAN printed on it. Always has. I noticed last week that I was on Magenta Max not Magenta Max Military. I called to get this taken care of. No one can figure out why I wasn't put on it initially. At first someone said I needed to verify my status. This didn't make sense to me because some other person told me that I was previously on a military plan. At first they tried to tell me I needed to verify a status that literally NEVER changes. Then someone else said I don't have to re verify my veteran status. Then another person said I have to verify this yearly….. which is it? Why was I taken off a military plan? No one can tell me why. I've been charged an extra 73 dollars a month for a regular plan for 19 months. This is almost 1400 dollars. Last week I was told that someone would call me within 72 hours. They did not. I even gave them an extra 24. I had to call T-Mobile. this time I'm being told they can't find where I was on a military plan because they can only go back 18 months. Well that's convenient. This happened at 19 months. At first I was offered 1 month 70 credit. That's all they could do. Then I spoke to someone different and it was 2 months…. Then someone different and it was three months. No one has the same access. Whether it's the new hire or the supervisor no one can see everything in order to verify anything. Every answer I've been given is different from the last. tonight I spoke to the world's worst supervisor, her name is Toni T. She basically told me that it's all my fault for not looking at my bill more closely…. I asked her how she would feel in my situation and what she would want in order to feel like she wasn't being scammed. She literally told me she would NEVER be in my situation because she looks at her bills. Wow…. Great customer service T-Mobile!!!! Way to keep people with this cellphone carrier!!! i asked for her supervisor, she doesn't seem to have one. I asked who signed her paychecks, no answer. I asked to be transferred and she refused. I'm truly disgusted with the way I was treated and I intend on going to their biggest competitor right after I scream my horrible experience from the rooftops of every social media platform I have access to. I may even dedicate an episode of my podcast to this experience. People need to know that T-Mobile does not care. They do not accept fault. They have no idea what's going on and they have some of the absolute worst people in high positions that have zero empathy for their customers and are clearly in a power trip. This woman said they would do NOTHING about this while three separate employees NOT at supervisor level offered to at LEAST give credit for 1 2 and 3 months because they know T-Mobile is in the wrong. This was literally the ONLY bill I thought I could trust not to screw me…… clearly I was wrong. Oh, if you happen to get transferred to a supervisor and it's Toni T….. just know you're about to be disrespected, she doesn't give a single f$&@ and she's on a power trip. She needs to be leveled out FAST.
horrible experience and useless insurance
Pay for insurance on all of my phones. Dumb idea. Insurance means nothing and I've paid for phones several times over for nothing. Two of my sons go to get phones fixed through insurance at the local store. Separate incidents at separate times. They are told there is nothing that can be done. They get cheap replacements and move on. Topic finally comes up months later as they do not live at home with me. T-mobile refused to replace their phones and I am STILL paying for the insurance. Nothing but the run around from t-mobile. A "supervisor" calls me and tries to strong arm me into buying additional phones. Talks over me. YELLS at me. Doesn't listen to what I am saying. The t-mobile app (worthless) shows not the boys' original phones, or even what they have now, but something different entirely. And somehow all of this is my fault. This is ridiculous. They tell me I have been with them for over 12 years. I think it is time to take the free phones from Verizon and move on. Cannot get anyone to actually listen and offer assistance. The chat is ridiculous. It takes forever for anyone to answer and they must be watching tv or answering fifteen different people given the time it takes for follow-up answers. Fine, you've outsourced your customer service to India, but have at least one person in the states that I can talk to…horrible experience
