42 TopicsPLEASE IF YOU HAVE MOVED CHECK YOUR BILLS
This had been a crazy week. I reached out to T-Mobile on 2/6/24 to discuss why my bill was still rising after I removed a line and also removed a device protection from one of my lines. upon reviewing my bill, I noticed that they had taxes and fees for two addresses. Now this wouldn’t be an issue if I hadn’t updated my address upon moving to my new home, but I did. I learned that T-Mobile has been charging me an extra 33.34 every month for the past 4 years and 7 months which kind of totals up to 18 hundred and change. After speaking to them and disputing the charges they called me today on 2/9/24 and said that it was nothing they could do because some of the lines were still registered at my old address. Now the main issue is that the lines associated with my old address are all minors. However, I’m the account holder and every device has been shipped to my current home how is this possible? To tell me after 7 years of being a customer that there is nothing that can be done is absurd. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. T-Mobile should be held accountable and not allowed to overcharge their customers.Solved419Views0likes4CommentsCharged for a Cell Spot
Hey All, I recently transferred (closed) my account and moved it into my ex-wife’s name. The rep I worked with on the phone helped me close account and pay the balance for my phone, etc. Now a few weeks later I get a bill for $314.65 for a supposed CellSpot non-return fee. To the best of my knowledge I never received or used a CellSpot device— and have zero record of any communications with TMobile about it! I have spent 4 hours on the phone -- (mostly on hold) in the last couple of weeks-- only to eventually be disconnected when I asked for the call to be escalated. I asked the reps numerous times if they could provide me with a description of the specific device I was sent, and any documentation of the standard replacement fee charge— and if they have any record of my ever receiving it, but they are adamant that their system doesn’t have that information. So am I just supposed to pay this phantom charge for over $300?!?! Helpppp!3.8KViews1like9CommentsKeep and Switch Fraud
Anyone else having trouble with TMobile meeting it’s promises. Three attempts now to be reimbursed for iPhone through keep and switch program. I guess they think you will just forget about what they promise you to get you to switch from AT&T. Just a new form of Corporate hot checks….. worst customer service I believe we have experienced…10KViews21likes55CommentsT-Mobile is frauding and charging for international calls made on wifi
I have been noticing increases on my monthly bill life $180 and called in to verify. The agent told me the extra charge is due to an international call. But guess what: I have been calling my Spain for years using WhatsApp Call and I have never been charged, since I have unlimited data. When I google the question I realize I’m not the only one who has this problem with T-Mobile. On my first call to the billing department the agent told me that international phone calls made through WhatsApp can be charged; Customer service didn’t want to remove charges so I will be transferring my business to AT&T. I even visited the store here in Dadeland and manager will no remove the charges. They rather loose business, incredible.4.9KViews3likes5CommentsAccount Fraud and no help from T-Mobile for 7 months
On Jan 9th someone walked into a T-Mobile store with a fake passport and was trying to upgrade 2 of my lines. The sales rep caught the fraud and did not proceed with the upgrade, the rep also noted the account saying they was trying to use a fake passport. They went to another location which T-Mobile gave me the address at 880 White Plains Rd Bronx NY and a rep there I.D. # 3044845 proceeded with the upgrade. later that day i got a text from T-Mobile thanking me for my upgrade, I called immediately and was told by a T-Mobile rep Janie ID# 1213151 that the fraud was caught and no changes was made to my account. I got my bill on Feb. and she was wrong the fraud did go though and I called T-Mobile back and spoke to James ID# 187433 who adjusted my bill and put in a fraud ticket in, this went on until May every month i had to call to adjust my bill and they would put a high priority fraud ticket in and tell me the same thing (I will get a call back from the fraud department in 1 to 3 days and it never happened) at the end of May i called and spoke to a rep which i forgot to take her name but she assured me that she spoke to the fraud dept. and the phones were taken off my account. Now we in July and my bill is still crazy and the phones are still on my account i spoke to one manager and her told me i have to go to the store WHERE I DID THE PURCHASE i explained I did not it was fraud he told me that has nothing to do with him and disconnected my call. My wife called 30 min. later the rep adjusted my bill and opened another fraud ticket. My thing is how long does it take fraud to investigate this, why can they just contact the store and get a copy of the ID they used which will show it was not me nor my wife. It has been 7 months and no help i guess T-Mobile does not take fraud seriously. I have been a customer since they were Voice Stream and about 5 years ago merged the whole family into a 6 line family account, it is a shame that because of a simple investigation which T-Mobile has ignored i will be forced to now switch to another carrier.Solved4KViews1like9CommentsDo customer agents always like to customers?
They say they will call you back with an updated status on a problem but never do. They gave me a promo then took it away because they couldnt find the phones i sent back even thought the UPS tracker is in the system and they know where the box is. I tried to spend $4000 with them but they overbilled me and told me it was my fault and they wouldnt change it. I tried the SYNCAuto service but it didnt work the way i needed, they wouldnt confirm they wouldnt sell my location and speed data, and then want to have me pay for the hardware even though i cancelled the service after discussing all this with tech support and they said it wont work the way i need it too.

I have had Magenta Max since Dec 2022 The service stopped working in May 2024. I stopped getting my unlimited data and cell service. I reported loss of service and did multiple rounds of technical support from mid May to June to fix it. They did not. I didn't have service for almost a month when i stopped Autopay in June and announced suspension of my account because I wasn't getting service. Customer service has been despicable since then. I submitted dozens of attachment proofs to customer service and customer service refused to acknowledge any of evidence taken from May to July. They insisted I owed them money for May-July I notified the company that they have voided the contract and I asked for my phone to be unlocked. I haven't had phone service since May, I NEED to find a legitimate phone carrier. T-Mobile has continued to charge me for June and July despite not having Magenta Max for over 2 monthes. I haven't had unlimited data or cell service since May and they cut off my amenities in June. They continue to charge me 2 and a half months since I last had service Customer service says the charges are valid on my voided contract and refuse to unlock my phone. Anyone have success getting all their evidence of T-Mobile fraud recognized and having your illegitimate charges taken off? How have you dealt with T-Mobile holding your property hostage and shaking you down stealing from you?158Views0likes0CommentsStop fraudulent account
Someone is trying to setup a fraudulent T-Mobile account using my SSN after identity theft. How do I get this flagged and stopped. I am not a T-Mobile customer and this is the second wireless carrier trying to setup accounts without my approval.Solved4.7KViews0likes9CommentsSIM Card Swap: How To Stop The SCAM?
I just learned that fraudsters can get enough information (from online or a phishing email you click on) to get T-Mobile to swap out the SIM card on your phone for one in their possession. After the swap is made over the phone, fraudsters can access your bank accounts, PayPal, crypto accounts and completely wipe you out with next to no recourse. I called T-Mobile customer service and asked them how to prevent this from happening. They said that whenever someone wants to swap their SIM card, T-Mobile sends a text to your phone BEFORE swapping it out. This is good because if you don’t confirm that you want to do this (which fraudsters can’t because they don’t have your actual physical phone) then they have to go to a T-Mobile store to further complete the transaction, making it hard for them to follow through with the ruse. So if this is true, why does it still keep happening? And what else can be done? I mean, what if you accidentally click on a fraudulent email that you don’t know is part of a scam, go to bed, wake up and find out you’re penniless, contact T-Mobile and your bank, only to have them both say they can’t help. Is there any other way to proactively prevent this from happening?6.1KViews0likes7CommentsIm getting billed on games on google play on a tablet i dont own
This all probably started in 2023 or 2022 but I didn’t notice that some I don’t know add a watch and tablet to my account and recently I noticed that someone is charging me gems and other things on a game called Free Fire: The Chaos on google play they have probably spend more than 200+ worth of in game stuff. I decided to solve this and go to a T-Mobile store and when I told them my situation they didn’t believe me and though I was the one that owned both the watch and tablet so they didn’t help me with my problem. Recently I have called T-Mobile to try and help me but they either don’t believe or say they have blocked the transactions they don’t work I stops for a while and when the transactions start again and I also tried to contact the fraud department but there no help I don’t know what to do now there wasting my money I want to find who’s behind all this. Do you guys have any suggestions?Solved242Views1like2Comments
