Re: T-Mobile Bait and Switch scam on December 2021 "Free" upgrade to IPhone13 + airpods
A Ramos wrote: Sorry to see we are not alone. We have been T-Mobile customers since 2018. We wanted to reduce our bill and switched over from AT&T. Service has been okay, at times spotty and frequently slow downloading. In April 2020 we upgraded one of the i-phone 8s for the 11 with a promotion they were running. They never applied the credits. We had to jump through hoops and after several months they made good and we were satisfied with the outcome. But now...here we are again! We upgraded to Magenta Max to qualify for the free I-phone 13 pro promotion in November 2021, expecting an improvement in service.Totally scammed. The rep I spoke with yesterday apologized for the rep that originally processed the order saying she was sorry they didn't fully explain the promotion and there was nothing that could be done since they complied with the promotion. I was assured many times over by the original rep processing the order that the phone would be free and the charges billed would be credited each month. As it turned out,we only received partial credits. I would never have committed to 30 additional months plus "upgrade" to Magenta Max since we are still experiencing dropped calls and areas with spotty service. VERY disappointed with T-Mobile!! I will be seeking legal advice in hopes to resolve this matter. We need to all get in on legal advise, as a lot of people have been scammed, I'm one of them!2Visto2likes0ComentariosRe: T-Mobile Bait and Switch scam on December 2021 "Free" upgrade to IPhone13 + airpods

I am being charged for 2 phones was told that the promotion in December 2021 was buy one get one free. That there's nothing they can do. They cannot find any promotion in December for free iPhones with trade in. They apologized that the person I spoke with didn't properly explain the promotion. They were running commercials starting around Thanksgiving 2021 for free iPhones and now they can't find the promotion. Totally ridiculous. I only switched to TMobile because of the free phones. They used the promotion as a bait and switch. I was scammed also! But I have pictures of the promotion.3Visto1like0ComentariosRe: T-Mobile Bait and Switch scam on December 2021 "Free" upgrade to IPhone13 + airpods

All of my calls were recorded by Tmobile so there should be absolutely NO refuting the content of the conversations and the promises made by the reps. 4/21/2022 I spoke to "Rodica", sales rep at the Philippine call center to get info on switching my mother's ATT cell plan to TMobile. She promised the following: FREE iPhone 13 ProMax 128gb phone if we switched to Tmobile and took the 55+ Magenta Max Plan for $65/mo on autopay. Sounded great so we signed up for this promotion with her. Later that afternoon, we received email receipt for installment payments for $1199/mo!! 4/21/2022 3:25pm ET I called Tmobile and got the Philippine call center again and spoke with "Jason". He apologized but said that there was no such promotion...PERIOD. I told him that this was a classic "bait and switch" and told him to cancel this account and "DO NOT ship the new phone." Jason told be "too late, the phone has already been shipped and I'm sorry sir about any confusion on our end but there is no such promotion that Rodica told you about. I will email you the UPS tracking number information." He never emailed anything. He told me "our email server is not working. I'm sorry sir." 4/22/2022 at 11:15am ET. I called "order support" and got the Philippine call center again and spoke with "Niel" Employee # 555500. He told me the following: "when you turn in your old iphone 6, you WILL receive a $400 credit for that phone. He was adamant that this was the truth and he promised to email me written confirmation of this. He never did. Niel also promised that the $400 credit would appear on the next billing statement. I believed him. Stupid me. 4/25/2022 We received the new iphone 13 promax and I successfully activated it with the Tmobile SIM card. 4/26/2022 I called Tmobile from the next iphone 13 promax using 611 and got the Tmobile call center in Birmingham, Alabama and spoke to "Sugar". She apologized and informed me that there was NO $400 credit to be applied. She did however tell me that there would be a $200 credit (divided over 24 months and applied on a monthly basis). She said in the future that in order to speak with USA Tmobile support, I should call 611 from the iphone. From what I've read above, this is classic bait and switch done by Tmobile call center in the Philippines. I don't know what to do going forward other than filling out the Tmobile complaint form. If I had this all to do over again, I would have taken Mom's phone to the AT&T store in person and wheeled and dealed there. I will NEVER in the future do business over the phone with Philippine call centers. TMOBILE….PLEASE read this complaint string by so many customers who have been duped by the Philippine call centers! This is all simply WRONG and you really are responsible for making all of us whole because we've been hurt financially by your representatives in the Philippines. Let's go!! It's also happening in the United States and I would not be surprised if it is happening world wide! I was scammed also by the bait and switch!3Visto2likes0ComentariosRe: T-Mobile Bait and Switch scam on December 2021 "Free" upgrade to IPhone13 + airpods

Yes this happened to a lot of people. I was also scammed by T-mobile! I have pictures of the promotions as proof but they still said it was notON US but there was an amount attached to the model of the iPhone being returned. Which is not true. They hid the information to the public so we would send in our phones to find out later they we were not going to get iPhone on them but only get a portion credit from the iPhone we sent in, this is BAIT AND SWITCH!12Visto4likes0ComentariosRe: T-Mobile Bait and Switch scam on December 2021 "Free" upgrade to IPhone13 + airpods

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. It seems there are a lot of people being scammed by T-mobile. I've been lied to also! I was told that the promotion stated the value of the iPhone you send in for upgrades was posted but it never showed up anywhere. We should all file a class action against them! I'll be posting in BBB also.2Visto1like0Comentarios
