I had Boost Mobile for years. I purchased a new phone straight out from Walmart. 5 months later Boost erroneously put a Boost Up on my account which I found out means you purchased some equipment or a phone on a payment plan.

They interrupted my service every month as they were charging me for something I never purchased. I spent hours speaking with customer service and support, unsuccessfully. Their customer service is nonexistent. They are in another country an just reiterate scripts they've memorized.

I finally was forced to switch to a new carrier. I sent a letter to their corporate office requesting a refund of my last 6 months and adviding them I'm looking for an attorney to sue for breach of contract, of course, it was returned unopened.

So if you have any issues with Boost…

I called to inquire about purchasing an iPhone 6 plus. The rep told me that I qualify for boost up financing on that phone for a dollar. I went in the store to purchase the phone and when I got home didn't realize it was the regular iPhone 6.

This is my first iphone so I'm not familiar with how they look. When I got home my daughter told me it was the 6 and the salesman lady wouldn't let me return it!

Manager at boost store Waco Tx. By the name of Carlos Rodreques told me and my husband we both could get a phone with a special that was going on in his store. 00 off phone and pay for service.

My husband asked the manager if we could purchase 1 phone now and then purchase his phone the following Friday. The manager stated "yes. No problem". 00 off my husband's phone. We both told him he Did say we could purchase this phone but he continued to call us both liners.

Needless to say we did not purchase the second phone for my husband because the manager got irrate and my husband left the store.

I have contacted the Brightstar warranty department and boost mobile supervisors regarding receiving a label for the return of an Iphone 6s plus pre-owned since 5/25/18-5/29/18 that no one wants to honor. Brightstar sent an email for a labeled that belong to a Jack Cron 9 months ago.

The email won't allow me to open it and print label. I have written down all dates, times, conversations and departments of everyone I was transferred to I have spoken to. Within ten (10) days the phone went out of service and all I asked for was a returning label so we can receive a replacement phone as followed by the warranty. ).

I was having terrible reception on my LG phone. When a call came in or I called someone the voice sounded muffled and hard to hear. The conversation was poor because you were able to hear every other word. I contacted boost to discuss the situation and they were not responsive nor helpful to what I was experiencing.

The representatives blamed the telephone but when I called the telephone manufacturer they blamed the carrier (BOOST). NEITHER WANTED to help at all. So I was fed up with paying for a service where I was not able to use.

I contacted a representative from BOOST to cancel my account because I am going to a new carrier. They had told me that since I paid the month, I will be refunded the portion not used. I am still waiting for that refund.

See this is why I changed because of…

I visited your store in Martinsville, VA to take advantage of the $1 down program to get a new phone. There was only one rep there and she was very unprofessional. The store opens at 10 am, she was 5 minutes late.

She did not voluntarily communicate the information that I needed to know about the program. I had to ask her questions. She was on the phone almost the whole time talking to personal people, not business related. So, it was a very frustrating experience.

She was not helpful at all. Because of my experience in the store, I decided to review my order online when I got home. The rep got my order totally wrong including the color and make of the phone. They had to cancel my order and now I am waiting for an email from boost to approve me for the program again.

Just wanted to thank you for becoming a greedy company. Unlimited gigs bull you slow down a customer know if they hit a certain gig total. You are now no different then any other company and not worth keeping your service.

If I wanted to be screwed I would’ve stayed with sprint I guess Verizon will be getting my bissnes. I got your service a year ago and loved it you couldn’t just leave it alone and let customers enjoy it had to get greedy well you may have just lost another customer thanks boost thought you were better than that.

I went to the Brooksville Boost Mobile Store to pay my bill, but was told by Rose that she could not take my payment, because the computer was down, but made me upset was the way she said it. I came back hours later and she (Rose; the manager) and a young guy(Randy) was there and a trainee (Lesie), who was very nice and professional, but Randy and Rose was rude, unprofessional, and horrible to deal with.

Rose refuse to give me the corporate number. I had to go online to write this complaint. I changed from Cricket to be insulted by Boost. REALLY your manager and Randy need more training; better yet they really need to work with animals and not people.

This company has really got me at the end of my rope, first you over charged me and never gave me my free month that i was supposed to get. Then i realized that another of the phones i paid for was supposed to be free for a month because he was getting a new phone, and i paid for that one as well, now a few months later my bill is due on the fifth and

yesterday on the fourth you guys cut off my service to all 3 of my phone. I don't appreciate not being able to use my phone when i need to, every time i talk to a boost employee i get the run around.

I have been a loyal customer for around 8+ years . Your customer service is worse than any company I have ever had to deal ever! I received a call from someone who had my account #s for 2 of my credit cards, the expiration dates, the last 4 of my SS#, my birth date, and zipcode.

They also knew my balances. They were trying to claim that they were calling for MasterCard and could lower my interest rate. After calling my credit card companies to inform them. I was trying to call the better business bureau.

However I wasn't sure out of 2 numbers which was used to contact me. The first number I called only had 9 numbers and when I tried to call the number it was boost mobile saying I didn't have enough money in my account to make the call.

00 monthly unlimited plan. Today is December 12, 2017 and she purchased another phone from a different carrier. She offered me her iPhone 7 and I too am on a different carrier. She asked Boost to unlock the phone and they refused citing the CTIA’s unlocking policy which does state that the phone must be active for 12 months prior to becoming eligible for unlocking. 00.

Nope, we can’t do that. You must keep the phone for the entire 12 months. I then asked if they were allowed to accept pre payments. Oh yes, absolutely you may pre pay. Ok, so here is my credit card, bill me for 9 months and unlock the phone.

No, I can’t do that and he again cited me the CTIA policy on unlocking. I then asked to speak to a supervisor. No, there is no one around. Imagine that! Boost Mobile is literally…

I visit the boost mobile store,meadowdale blvd. ,back in October. I wanted the Free LG phone,it was out if stock. Then I choose the Free Samsung phone it was out of stock so I purchased the ZTE phone.. November 26,2017.

I returned to boost mobile to transfer my service from Verizon once again 2 months later the Free LG and the Samsung phone is out if stock.. If this is a cell phone company WHY is it that these phones are never in stock.. The customer service stinks.

I was told that it took 30 minutes and it could not be done that night because the store closes at 8pm.

I was over charged. Boost owes me 5$ for at least 4 or 5 months, thats 20 to 25$.. when I got this plan I was told I could enroll in auto withdraw after 30 days. I requested that after the 30 days.

I actually went in before the 30 days and was told i was in the auto plan which took my 30 day plan to 25$. I find out today that i've been charged 30$ all this time and I am truly upset.

I am 66 years old on fixed income. I cannot afford to be overcharged. should not be anyway. IT IS NOT MY FAULT THAT BOOST MESSED UP ON MY ACCOUNT!!!. Should I have to pay for that? My phone is off still.

I won't turn it back on until this matter is cleared up. 3163 Marilyn Harris 7611 E 79th Street Tulsa, Oklahoma 74133

I am just writing to let your company know that after being a loyal customer for almost 9 years that I will be switching company's next month. d. numbers. So to make a long story short customer service somehow deactivated and locked up my phone.

We spend 3 days trying to reactivate it but couldn't. So not only did I have to spent $250 on a new phone I also lost 7 months worth of insurance amd 3 weeks worth of phone service. When I ask to be compensated a free month I was told NO that couldn't be done!

I live exactly 2 miles from the boost store and every time I try and use my Internet it says off line. I was in the middle of walmart parking lot which is a half of a mile away from the boost store and it said it was on roaming and would not make a call.

On August 25th, 2017, we initiated the transfer of our Donation line number (503)547-5860 pin 937510 from Virgin Mobile to Boost Mobile. The store rep called Customer service to do the switch as it could not be done on their computer. We were told that in order to move the number to Boost, the Virgin number had to be cancelled and we would NOT lose our number and was assigned a temporary number of 503-437-2909 pin 8153. We waited and until now 9/4/2017, our number is still not on Boost. We have not had a line even though we paid for the month and activation already.

I ordered a phone from Boost Mobile. It got lost in FedEx shipping cycle. I have been on the line with customer service all day long. I've been cut off 4 times. Only to be told to call the police and file a report, they can do nothing about it, someone would call me back and didn't.

All I'm wanting is the phone that I paid for and Boost Mobile keep saying they can do nothing about it I even asked them to send me another one and it FedEx find the old one I will refuse it and send it back and they tell me they cannot do that.

all stink about as bad as possible.

First off, your website, is completely rhetorical and doesn't give anyone who has purchased a new phone through you directions on how to activate it by themselves. Oh, it gets better. Your companies inability to actually give a number to reach customer care representatives is comical and elementary.

what if there is no number being called about and it is a new service needing started you fucking jack wagon? Or how your website shows phones for sale that are actually no longer in stock? Maybe update your website? rant over.

So I called they offered me to use two phones but I didn't want them so they gave me the offer of 30% off of one phone. To make a long story short I called like 10 times they kept giving me the wrong promo and it wouldn't go through.

I'm very dissatisfied with Boost Mobile and I feel that I should be compensated for my time and I've wasted trying to get this ZTE Warp 7. When these guys say that you're going to get back with somebody that's what you need to. The last person I talked to told me he couldn't help me.

Spoke with Mike at Boost Mobile support on 10/15/2016 who was very rude. Kept interrupting and did not address the issue i was calling about. Ignored several requests to speak with a supervisor. After 20 minutes of requesting a supervisor, spoke with Amanda who processed a 50 refund in less than 2 minutes to debit card 6582 so that 50 dollar credit from account could be applied.

I even provided my confirmation number 148030311 and transaction ID number i109791646540. This is by far the worst customer care I have ever seen. Maybe I called the wrong phone number? Their "Contact Form" on the website (attached) is a total joke. Who creates a website form in black and orange colors?

I have used boost Mobile since January and every month like clock work, my phone slows down a week before my payment is due. I get a text saying that I used 85% of my data and my service will slow down until the 12th.

How in the hell can my data usage be the same every month by the same date. As a result, my phone starts blinking and when I try to do a function, my screen starts blacking out. Several times I was in the middle of an automated call where I needed to put a number in and follow the prompt but every time I put my finger on the screen it blinked off and on, causing me to loose the call.

I'm very frustrated with the service. I've heard the same complaint from several other customers. I'm ready to switch to another carrier.

I recently bought a new phone from boost. I already had a plan with boost and wanted to add my new phone to a family plan and give my husband my old phone. Well my old phone had a grace period on it.

So when I called to have my plan changed to a family plan, they said I had to wait 3 days for the grace period to be taken off my account. I waited 3 days and called back. I have called Boost customer care over 5 times over 3 weeks and keep getting told it's getting fixed wait 3 days.

I was actually impressed with boost mobile for crediting my account for a free month of service due to the fact that the tower by my house has been down. I went weeks and still am going through roaming or no service at all.

Then when it came time to use my free month they said that I was never given one nor would they ever give me one. Said that I never even called even though I had the day, time, and name of the gentleman that I spoke with. They are a joke.

I demanded that I speak with a supervisor but they refused to let me talk to one. I understand that he may be busy but when I asked to receive a call back. I was denied that as well. I will be looking for another phone company ASAP and not recommending boost mobile to anyone.

I've been a customer with Boost Mobile for years. As long as I don't have to deal with customer service it's been okay. Recently I bought a new Sprint Galaxy 6 and needed a SIM card for it. Their website says go to the store, which I did. The girl basically the same command of the English language as someone from deep Appalachia. She informed me that they 'don't got no SIM cards' and never have had SIM cards. It's a lie, but arguing would be a waste of time and energy. I called customer service and have had nothing but hell for the last 2 days.

I've been locked out of my account repeatedly after giving them my PIN, had multiple settings on my account changed without my permission, been hung up on, lied to, spoken to like I'm the idiot in the conversation - all in almost indiscernible…

Yelled at me and told me I could have googled it at home. I told him I did. After he googled it and could not fix it either told me he was going to have to call ZTE to find out the problem no apology no oh I was wrong.
