disconnected number issues still active
Listen to this issue that t-mobile cant resolve or have an answer to. I changed my phone number in april 2024 and it still rings to a voicemail in which i don’t have access to. I was worried someone hacked that number. because when i first disconnected it, it had the disconnect message than all of a sudden, it started going to vm per friends and family trying to contact me via my old number by accident. so it has caused so many issues still having the voicemail active and i can not access that old voicemail since changing the number. So i called tmobile 3 times and they assure me its cancelled and can’t explain why all of a sudden it goes straight to voicemail. This has been a security concern for me and tmobile isnt resolving it
Billing issue after porting
Hi folks, I ported my two phone lines out of T-Mobile around April 23 (This was due to one of them having a busted Caller ID where everyone I call, including family, would see the number as having a blocked Caller ID, this was never fixed after repeated calls and attempts over months) After porting, I received what I assumed was a final bill of negative $91.18 around May 11 (T-Mobile says they don’t pro-rate cancellations, but for some reason they did here) because of course T-Mobile bills for the following month, so I already paid for service ahead of time between April 12 and May 11 Then I get a direct debit attempt on my bank account for $178.19, for what, I don’t know, because I just got a bill for negative $91.18, meaning T-Mobile would owe me a check; seems like a mistake to me, so I reject the debit attempt, presumably this was for the billing cycle beginning May 12, and I didn’t have any active service I should be paying for Today, June 21, I get a collections notice and a bill in the mail for $119.01, which is $178.19, minus $91.18, plus a $25 returned payment fee, and a $7 late fee I call T-Mobile to explain all this, I’m told that the $178.19 was because I didn’t cancel my watch lines (!!) I explained that watch lines do not work without a parent phone line, and my watches lost their data plans on April 23 when I ported my numbers out I asked the customer support agent if she saw any usage on the watches at all, she said there was none, not even one kilobyte of data, no calls, nothing I asked what the watch lines cost, I was told they were $10 a month So, I asked how exactly I was being charged $178.19 from May 12 forward when I didn’t have any voice lines, and no usage or functionality on watch lines, and the only answer I received was that I failed to cancel the watch lines when I ported out my voice lines, despite the fact that they appeared as canceled on my watches On my current bill my plans show up as $0, equipment $0, services $0, but that the price of my connected devices increased by $2 a month So, why is T-Mobile insisting that I owe them $119.01? The customer service agent asked me, “what are you willing to pay?” And I said zero because I haven’t yet heard of anything that makes sense from her, and I didn’t use any service with T-Mobile after April 23. Even if they wanted to charge me for two watches, that’s somewhere between $10 and $25 per line, so, $20 to $50? They refused to wipe out the bill, but “cancelled” my service finally so I wouldn’t be billed more.
Not receiving texts from Verizon carriers!
Hello Everyone, I’m looking for some sort of help if anyone has encountered the issue that I am having. I recently tried to make a switch over to Verizon from T-mobile and had begun the process online. Mistake number 1. In trying to do so I did not realized that I needed transfer of liability from the account that I was under in order to have my own account. After realizing how much of a mess it was to even do that I decided it was not worth it to switch after all and decided to stick with T-Mobile. Before my number could be on my own account the T-mobile rep said that my number was ported to verizon and needed to be ported back. I had called Verizon and had them port my number back as they said my number was only partially ported. After all that I had my own account on T-mobile. Now I am not receiving messages from ANY Verizon carriers and I dont know what is going on. Verizon carriers are able to receive my messages and calls but I cannot receive messages from them, just calls. I have spoken to multiple people with tmobile up to the engineers and they have stated that everything is clean on their end and have even rebroadcasted my number. I have tried every possible thing that I could on the phone in order to see if I could resolve the issue but have not had any luck. I talked with a verizon rep today and they said that my account would be deactivated when the billing cycle ends in February but only stated the messaging issue was on tmobiles end. I am stuck, losing serious hope, and no longer know what to do. Can anyone help???????
How long does it take to port a number from "land-line" to T-mobile phone?
I want to port the phone-number of my land-line (currently carried by Comcast Xfinity) to my T-mobile phone (replacing the number the T-mobile phone presently uses). I confirmed on T-Mobile’s website that the number can be ported. How long does this usually take to complete the port? Would I have to get a new sim card? Thanks in advance
iPhone Unlock Problem (Moved to Another Carrier)
Hello. I have recently switched carriers and ported my number over. I had purchased an iPhone 12 Pro Max from T-mobile and have recently paid off the final bill, which includes the remaining balance on the phone. This is after I have switched carriers and ported my number to the new carrier. I realized, unfortunately, that I am unable to login to my T-mobile account because the associated number(s) is no longer with T-mobile. I reached out to a rep regarding this issue and was told that I would receive a confirmation around 24-48 hours via email regarding the unlock request. This did not happen. I reached out to support via chat and basically after an hour of talking, nothing can be done online. All I got was just to a generic link provided on how to unlock the phone, which brings me to the page on to login to my T-mobile account, which is not possible. I had my account PIN stored away in my notes but it seems to be lost. I was told by the agent on chat I would need to visit a store nearby and bring the phone that needs to be unlocked. The dilemma is that my work hours conflicts with the store hours. Questions are; Any way to do this online, like at all? Are authorized users able to bring to store to get it to be unlocked? How long does unlocking take? Thank you for any advice! Happy holidays
