Re: Anyone fed-up with horrible coverage from TMobile
Greatride, BOY HOWDY AM I FED UP! T-Mobile has lied, stolen, and inconvenienced me (often because of THEIR FAULT) so many times I want to start screaming and never stop. I have ADHD and OCD. I am meticulous in telling people what I want or need. When I first joined T-Mobile many years ago I very clearly told the rep I could only tether by phone since I rent a converted garage. Even though separate from the main house the city still classifies it as the same location and you cannot have two utility bills in the same location. I was told that would be fine and pointed to an "Unlimited" package. I quickly found out the package was not really "Unlimited". When I passed 50GB I got throttled. When I got throttled the internet got slower but at least it still worked. Lie #1. Lie #2 was not discovered until years later when I finally paid off my phone. I had hoped paying off the phone would mean a MUCH leaner bill. It was still high. I asked a rep why it was still so high. He checked and discovered an international calling package had been bundled in WITHOUT my knowledge. I had zero use for such a package. I had no reason to call internationally AT ALL. For years I was being charged for something I did not want or need. I immediately got it taken off but the damage had been done. Hundreds of dollars wasted. About this time T-Mobile was offering to 55 and older a free trial for a T-Mobile modem. Since it came directly from T-Mobile it would solve my problem. Also the package would lower my phone bill, I was told. I was jumping over the moon. This could solve all my issues. I took it home, giddy with excitement. It worked for 20 minutes and then shut down. I tried it in different locations in the room. 20 minutes then shut down. I took it back to the T-Mobile store. They said they had a newer model and I should try that. This one was sleek but wouldn't even turn on. At all. I took it back. They told me that I had to ship it back to T-Mobile. They gave me a shipping label and a box. I still had to pay for packing materials and tape.I shipped it immediately. Then I got a bill for the modem that never worked! I went to a store and had them look it up. It HAD been delivered on time, I was told. I should not worry, T-Mobile will "catch up" and take it off the bill. So, I am pet sitting in Los Angeles a few days later. Pet sits are like my mini vacations. I have no access to cable or even TV at home. (but I do have a lot of DVDS) When I pet sit I bring my desktop and enjoy high speed internet, I watch their streaming channels and relax. T-Mobile shuts off my phone service without warning. I have to contact them by internet to find out what happened. I can still call T-Mobile through the cell though.I have to endure their needlessly treacherous voicemail system. Screaming "HUMAN! HUMAN! HUMAN!" so loud the neighbors must have been concerned. Finally I get a human. She checks and reports that yes, T-Mobile shut off my phone because they are charging me for the modem despite returning it before the free trial expiration date. We have an issue with the pin. I did not remember it. (turns out I had it written down in my little password book but I was confusing it with my password) For some reason, she got cut off. She called me back but then got cut off again. By now I had already wasted hours. I guess she gave up because she did not call again. I resolved to call back the next day, maybe their issues would be resolved. I called the next day. Same issue with the voicemail system. Finally got a human. This guy, Kevin James (if that is really his name) finally solved all my issues, and when he explained about the pin, I realized I had it in my password book. He got the $69.00 reversed. What NOBODY ever could reimburse however was all those years of wasting hundreds of dollars on something I had not asked for, nor all the time wasted and the emotional toil. I get VERY angry. Like if there was a punching bag there I would have left it in shreds angry. I've taken Anger Management but AM does not address corporate f@#$ery. More recently, T-Mobile shut off my phone because I was 2 days late paying the bill because I had mixed up the date. (also, what ever happened to the five day grace period?-oh yeah, corporate f@#$ery) I got a supervisor and she was one smug ball of slime.When I mentioned all the things T-Mobile has put me through, she had the gall to say; "It's the customer's responsibility to know their billing." then she added "We reversed that $69.00." Yeah, moron, you did! BECAUSE IT WAS YOUR COMPANY'S FAULT!!! But of course, she doesn't mention ANY compensation for countless lost time or the accumulation of stress. Because there was no compensation for that. Meanwhile with every merger my internet has gotten slower. I noticed immediately after the mergers of Sprint and Mint, my internet got vastly slower. Then the setting up of 5G towers. Now my internet is nearly a paperweight. To add insult to injury, if you read the Terms Of Service T-Mobile not only shields itself from a Jury Trial, but also shields any partners, third party vendors, and company employees. What this means is if you want to sue. You have to sue by arbitration. T-Mobile knows that arbitration is costly, that you are likely going to be saddled with a lawyer that actually works for T-Mobile, and that the reward, (IF you even had the slightest chances of winning) is much smaller than what one might get from a Jury Trial. That means that Samsung cannot be bothered when it's updates ruin their phones. As they did mine. I cannot receive messages in a timely manner because Visual Voicemail always says it's empty. The only time I see that I have a message is when it pops up in a notification, usually a half hour later. I go to V.V., it still says empty. But if I click directly on the notification it takes me to the message. I've lost jobs because of this since I could not answer in a timely manner. As a film maker, I use my phone's camera a lot. Despite not having it on (in fact, making sure it has NO permissions) Bixby just decides to ruin shots for me by suddenly intruding. Also, again, despite looking it up and unclicking permissions, the phone will just suddenly decide to flip video upside down. Sometimes it completely shuts off while filming, I have missed so many things because of this. Yet, Samsung is shielded by T-mobile. Finally, one final lie from a T-Mobile rep that has caused me inconvenience and even emotional turmoil. I had to change my numbers years ago. I asked SPECIFICALLY for a "clean" number, an unused number. Rep said, "No problem". There was a problem. They gave me Linda Pace's number. I have no idea if Pace is dead or just didn't do her due diligence in notifying all her friends, doctors, etc… that she had a new number. For years I constantly got calls from friends and corporations looking for Pace. The most heartbreaking one was a father who left a message saying."Linda, I know how much you cared for my son so I had to call you to tell you he just passed away." I had to call back and say, "I am so sorry about your son. But this is not Linda Pace's number." Nobody should have to be put through that emotional task because of a corporations lack of "Good Faith."1Ver1like0Comentarios
