Another Run around by tmobil
Another run around by tmobil. Apple website says only a carrier can unlock your phone. I purchased the phone from t-Mobil in 2019. You are the carrier. Really do people go outside of the company to ourchase a phone when they are with a company? I we have been a tmobil customer since 2016 and we purchased the phone in 3019. You guys are giving me the worst customer service ever. Your records are not available because your records only go back to 2020. Is that the customers fault that you don’t keep accurate records of phone purchase for a reasonable time. 5 years is not sufficient to keep phone purchase records. I take my childrens old phones all the time and I am still using one of outlrbIphone 11’s. Tmobil has zero accountability to customer satisfaction I regards to unlocking my phone. See Apple information below!!! Contact your carrier 1. Only your carrier can unlock your iPhone. Contact them and request an unlock. After you submit the request, it might take a few days to complete. Contact your carrier to check the status of your request. 2. After your carrier confirms that they unlocked your iPhone, follow the steps below.

o: T-Mobile Customer Care Date: May 13, 2025 Dear T-Mobile Customer Support, I spoke the call center multiple times on Sunday, May 11, 2025 from between 7:30 and approximately 10:45 pm. Each representative appeared to read the previous persons's notes and recite what they said. No one used critical thinking skills to help resolve the matter. All intractions were frustrating and it appeared that the representatives were not trained properly and not interested in resolving a problem that should have not existed in the first place. Last four of phone 1994. I am writing to formally request that T-Mobile unlock my Apple iPhone 11, which was purchased through T-Mobile in November or December of 2019 and paid in full approximately two years later. According to T-Mobile’s own device unlocking policy, devices are eligible to be unlocked once they have been paid off in full and meet basic usage requirements. My iPhone 11 meets these criteria, yet it remains locked due to no fault of my own. At no time during or after payoff was I informed that a manual request to unlock the phone was necessary. It is both unreasonable and unacceptable for T-Mobile to place blame on the customer for not requesting an unlock when, in fact, T-Mobile failed to act on their own stated policy. This failure is compounded by the fact that the device was paid off during or shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic began—a time when many systems were understandably delayed. However, that does not excuse the current refusal to resolve the matter properly. Most troubling is that during my recent call with your support team, a representative wrongly claimed that I had not purchased the phone from T-Mobile—despite being a loyal customer for nearly nine years and purchasing all of my devices through T-Mobile. This behavior is deeply unprofessional and borders on gaslighting. It is the responsibility of a service provider to maintain accurate records and to assist customers in resolving issues, not to discredit or shift blame onto them. Therefore, I am formally requesting: Immediate unlocking of my iPhone 11. A written explanation for why this issue occurred. Confirmation that the matter has been resolved. This experience has caused unnecessary frustration and raises serious concerns about T-Mobile's accountability and customer service. I expect a prompt and professional resolution within 2 business days of receipt of this complaint. Failure to do so may result in a formal complaint to the FCC and other consumer protection agencies. Sincerely, See Log on nameTrust1237 days agoNetwork Novice89Views0likes1CommentI payed to activate 2 lines
i paid the 90/month for the two lines and they added an extra one which led to my phones being suspended two days after said payment. I’m literally so frustrated because i keep getting on the phone with them and even when in the store and they’re just asking me to spend more money on an EEROR THEY MADE. I HATE TGIS COMPANY AND JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK SO I CAN SWITCH.jadajones21 days agoNetwork Novice121Views0likes0CommentsMoney not returned after returning device
I have been a loyal T-Mobile customer since 2007. On October 23, 2023, I switched to AT&T and canceled my T-Mobile account. I anticipated an additional final billing cycle and monitored my account closely. T-Mobile charged me as expected on October 23 and November 23, 2023. However, on December 23, 2023, I received a surprising bill for $397.50. When I contacted customer service, I was informed that the charge was for a signal booster device I had received from T-Mobile in 2015, and that the charge would be reversed once the device was returned. I located the signal booster and requested a return shipping label, which T-Mobile provided. I promptly shipped the equipment back on January 12, 2024, to the address they gave me. I called T-Mobile again and was advised that the charge would be reversed once the equipment was received, but that processing might take some time. By March 2024, after not seeing any refund, I followed up and was told that because my account was closed, they could no longer access it and suggested I visit a T-Mobile store for assistance. In April, I went to a T-Mobile store with proof of the return shipment (reference available). After making some calls, the store representatives informed me that they could not assist me either, as the account was no longer active, and recommended I dispute the charge with my credit card company. Unfortunately, my credit card issuer could not process a dispute because the transaction was beyond the 90-day window. I made a final call to T-Mobile on May 2, 2024, seeking resolution but was again unable to recover the charge. I am reaching out to you as a last resort to request the refund of $397.50 for the equipment I returned, in accordance with the instructions provided by T-Mobile. I sincerely hope you can assist me in resolving this matter. Thank you for your time and consideration.sbaassiri25 days agoNetwork Novice263Views0likes1Comment- RS9561025 days agoNewbie Caller100Views0likes0Comments
Switch Rebate Link Never Sent to Us/30 Days Has Expired
Anyone else have this occur...We switched from AT&T to Tmobile in February. The salesmen at our local store never submitted our rebates and was never explained that we would have to file for them via a link which we never received. I got a bill from AT&T for our mobile phones that Tmobile said they were paying off for us. We called customer service and they told us we would have to talk to the manager at the Russellville, Arkansas location. She will not talk to us and is "never in." We suddenly got the link for the rebate last week. It's PAST THE 30 DAYS! When I try to complete the form, at the end I receive an error that says my Tmobile account is not current. It is current, it's auto drafted from our checking account. I am very frustrated because AT&T is going to want their money!! Suggestions???Jeff11286729 days agoNetwork Novice102Views0likes0Commentsover payed
On April 11th I set a payment arrangement for 598.00 to paid on april 15th. I paid 300.00 dollars towards the 598.00 thinking on the 15th tmobile would take the balance. They took the full amount of 598.00. so i paid a total of 898.00. I couldnt afford to do that and got a refund for the 300.00. Now I owe 536.00 and the system wont let me set up an arrangement. The system states i owe 300.00 dollars. The tmobile reps are saying because i have a past due amount of 300.00 and its past30 days there's nothing they can do. The arrangement was satified in the full amount of 598.00. Someone please help. I have been a costumer for over 15yearsdoc3872 months agoNetwork Novice269Views0likes2CommentsClosed account with zero balance. Sent to collection 1yr after closing.
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding the mishandling of my T-Mobile account, continued unauthorized charges, lack of notice, and a resulting erroneous collections report that may severely impact my ability to secure a VA Interest Rate Reduction Loan (IRRL). In September 2023, I began the process of responsibly closing my T-Mobile account after transferring service to Verizon. I kept the account active only long enough to pay off device balances and allow number porting. Once that was completed, I confirmed in-store that the account was closed using my husband's phone (still on T-Mobile service at the time), and I received no indication of any further balance due or remaining obligations. Despite this, T-Mobile continued to autopay my credit card for approximately nine months, charging around $80/month—even though the account was inactive and unused. No texts or emails were sent to notify me of ongoing billing. I discovered this only when I reviewed my credit card statements months later. Upon calling T-Mobile to resolve the issue, I was told I could not access my account without a PIN, which could only be sent to the closed phone number. I then went into a physical store, where staff confirmed the account had not been used since the date I originally closed it. A credit request was initiated by a manager, and I was assured a refund would be mailed. No refund was ever received. Subsequently, my credit card had to be replaced due to fraud, which halted the erroneous autopay charges. I did not update T-Mobile with the new card because, again, the account was supposed to be closed. Months later, I was shocked to receive a call from a collections agency demanding over $320. T-Mobile had not notified me by phone, email, or letter that a balance was due. After numerous frustrating store visits and customer service calls, I was told the account had never been properly closed and that it was now too late to dispute the charges internally. I was left with the unacceptable choice to either let the collections report damage my credit—or pay the balance for services I never used, never authorized, and was never notified about. I chose to pay the balance in fear of losing my chance at a lower mortgage interest rate through my IRRL. This situation, caused entirely by T-Mobile’s systemic failures, has caused me immense stress and financial strain.Tmobileripoff2 months agoNewbie Caller294Views1like1CommentBilling issue
Hi everyone, I just found out that T-Mobile has been charging me for two lines I never authorized or used for the past 14 months, totaling $187.60. These were added without my knowledge at a T-Mobile store in Brooklyn in March 2024. Customer service only offered me $100 back, saying they can’t refund more than 3 months. That still leaves me short $87.60, and I don't think that's fair since I never agreed to these charges. I’ve asked for the lines to be removed and a full refund, but I’m still waiting for a proper resolution. If it doesn’t get resolved soon, I plan to report this to the FCC and BBB. Has anyone here dealt with something similar or had luck getting through to T-Mobile Executive Relations? Thanks, IlyesIlyes25saoudi2 months agoNetwork Novice174Views0likes1CommentPayments
Find it funny how if someone is down and out and between jobs, TMobile shuts off their way of payment and will shut you off then demand another form of payment with a 20$ reconnect fee.... I already filed a complaint with the FCC and waiting to hear back. Can't shut someone's means of payment off and expect payment when my debit card comes out of that account... but obviously TMobile has no brains on how things work... and I don't have a credit card.Lauren_and_Aaro2 months agoNetwork Novice95Views0likes0Comments
