      I have previously filed a complaint against boost/dish wireless because I cancelled the service and they charged me for the phone after it was returned. Recently dish has tried to take money out of my credit card for a service I dont have any more. I have tried to contact *********************** DISH | ******** | Boost Mobile Executive Escalations, Corporate Case Manager Phone: ************** She was the one handling the previous complaint but she is refusing to help me. At this point ** just trying to stop fish for continuing to hit my credit card with fraudulent charges as Im not longer had the service. Im gonna try to fix this issue one time only by using BBB as mediator. I dont want to have to use legal services for something I believe can be handle with a simple phone call.

      Dear ********************:

      On June 4, 2024, we received your complaint, dated June 4, 2024, filed with the Better Business Bureau.

      You stated Boost Infinite attempted to collect an autopay payment for service you no longer have, and I refused to assist you with resolving this issue. You requested to no longer be charged for service.

      I applied a credit to your account for the services and removed your card from autopay, so you will not be charged for service going forward.

      I apologize if you felt that I would not assist you.

      If there are further questions or concerns about this issue, please feel free to contact me at **************.

      Dear ****************:

      On June 4, 2024, we received your complaint, dated June 3,2024, filed with the Better Business Bureau.

      You said the phone you purchased was stolen from your porch. You added that although you purchased the insurance, it was not covered because the device was not activated.

      A device cannot be insured until it is activated, which links it to the insurers database containing the original purchasers information.

      As a courtesy, I applied a credit for the purchase price of the phone ($10.00) and the first month of the insurance premium ($4.65) to your account. The phone you purchased, the ******** Moto G 5G, is available through www.boostmobile.com for the same price you originally paid.

      We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

      Sincerely,

      I am rejecting this response because:
      They credited my account for my purchase but deducted the amount from my phone bill not giving me the opportunity to purchase the phone again but deducted it from my bill therefore the refunded me just to take the money right back and no the same phone is not available to purchase at the same price it is $149 so that is why I'm rejecting this offer wasn't an offer

      Dear ****************:

      On July 1, 2024, we received your rebuttal, dated July 1,2024, filed with the Better Business Bureau.

      You said that you rejected my response because I credited your monthly bill, which did not allow you to repurchase the phone. In addition, you stated that the price of the phone has now increased to $149.99.

      The amount credited to your account on June 19, 2024, was equal to the purchase price of the phone, plus the cost of the protection plan. By applying it as a credit and reducing your balance, you would have had this amount available to repurchase the phone. However, since the date of the initial transaction, this particular phone was made available to new customers only at the promotional price of $9.99. Since you did not receive the phone due to theft and not a result of a Boost Mobile related action, it does not meet the requirements to make an exception. Therefore, you have the two options listed below:

      Open a new account, purchase the phone at the promotional price, and have it activated on your existing account. This new account would then be cancelled.
      Purchase the phone through the upgrade function on your existing account, at the current price of $149.99, and receive a refund for the difference once the phone is activated.

      If there are further questions or concerns about this issue, please feel free to contact me at **************.

      We began service with Boost Mobile for a Schok flip phone IMEI number ***************. The phone number they gave for the device was *************. That number has been functioning since March 5, 2024. Today we decided to switch carriers and logged in to our Boost Mobile account and found a completely different phone number *************. We were originally told we could not have that phone number and had spent time on the phone with someone to set up a new number. The ************* is not a functioning number with Boost Mobile and is a disconnected number on ******* Wireless. This number should not appear on our account or be linked to our device. Yet, the ******************** customer service agent refused to change the number on the account. After 90 minutes on the phone, they told us to wait 72 hours and call them back. They stated there was no other way to reach anyone in their company, no email contact, and no other method to resolve this so we could switch carriers. We called customer service at ********** on 6/3/2024 at 8:49pm and spent 1 hour and 33 minutes on the phone with customer service. Name of agent = ******. We confirmed all account information, IMEI number for the phone Our desired solution is that we are able to transfer our current phone number ************ to a new carrier.

      Likewise, insurance in partnership with Boost Infinite is a scam I lost my phone April it was iPhone 15+ I filed a claim. They said that all I needed was to send them a photo of my drivers license and fill out a claim affidavit to bypass the claim affidavit by asking security Questions over the phone I answered these questions I sent a photo of my drivers license and it was accepted about a week past with nothing happening so I called them. They informed me that I still needed to do a claim affidavit. I told him that I did it over the phone answering the security questions They said that there were no record indicating this so they sent me a email with a PDF of a claim affidavit. I copied it and filled out the form. I took a photo of the form and emailed it to them. It was accepted. later. They told me that they needed more documents, they told me that they needed proof of my address. I told them that my drivers license had my current address on there and my bill from them address is the same they indicated to me that that wasnt enough to prove my address that they need it pictures of utility bills I was recently just married and I moved from *********, ******** to *******, ***** so I had no utility bills in my name at the moment. My name was not on the bill told me that I needed the authorization letter that my wife authorization on account they asked me for her ID, and a photo of my marriage license and my Social Security number this scared me all my documents were accepted about a week later I called them back and asked for the progress of my claim They said my claim was rejected for misleading information every person that I talk to from this company was disrespectful and rude. It was not for coming with the truth and did not provide me with any information at all. It will unprofessional. I called boost, they called likewise and was treated the same boost told me they were handle it, they told boost I switched my IMEI number. Thats why they rejected my claim.

      You said you want to change your service provider, but your phone is locked and we will not unlock it until October 2024.

      My attempts to contact you at ************** on June 20 and 21, 2024, were unsuccessful, but I was able to leave a voice message with my contact information. I also sent an email to you at ****************** with a request to contact me.

      Boost Mobile will unlock a device under the following circumstances:

      ?The device has not been reported as lost/stolen or otherwise flagged as ineligible for unlocking
      ?The device has been active on the associated account for at least 12 months

      *** Unlock refers to enabling the *** slot of a device to allow insertion of another carriers *** card. Unlocking a device will not necessarily make a device interoperable with another carriers network. In other words, a device designed for one network is not made technologically compatible with anothers network merely by unlocking it. Additionally, unlocking a device may enable some functionality of the device, but not all (e.g., an unlocked device may support voice services but not data services when activated on a different network).

      I am willing to discuss this with you, but I will need additional information off your device to see what can be done. Please contact me at ************** or *********************** for further assistance.

      We regret any inconvenience you may have experienced.

      BBB is unable to locate the business.
      Purchased an upgrade A25 5G phone 5/29/24 and by 6/1/24, busted screen not displaying nothing. Original email stated $25, but nothing about a $135.20 total charge or any extras; he did not even use sim card from old phone. ***** at store was nice enough when taking my money, but hung up on me when called about dead brand new phone. Now the inconvenience is that the new phone may not be back to normal until 6/7/24. This is unacceptable service and frustrating, when all he could say, "it happens." The worst customer care experience, and I hope my note does not create retaliation. However, note that Boost and ******* customer care is taking care of the busted new purchase. Lastly, I feel that I should be reimbursed for the inconvenience. Not happy about this situation, at all and to have to wait one week for a working phone, is not acceptable. The option to get refund and return the new phone, with all my personal data on it was not a fair suggestion for me, especially since he declined to reactivate my old phone. There was/is no damage to the new phone on my part. Want a better resolution.My email address that would not take above, is: ********************* Kind Regards

      Dear Ms. **************** June 5, 2024, we received your complaint, dated June 3,2024, filed with the Better Business Bureau.

      You said that you purchased an A25 5G phone on May 29, 2024,and by June 1, 2024, the screen was broken. You also indicated that the email you received stated the upgrade would only be $25.00, but you ended up paying $135.20. In addition, your phone will not be fixed until June 7, 2024. You requested to be reimbursed for the inconvenience.

      The screenshots included show that the receipt states,Device must be exchanged to the original place of purchase for the same device within (7) days, be in "like new condition" and contain all original packaging and accessories, including the payment receipt. Furthermore, a review of the receipt shows the payment of $135.20 included a $25.00 charge for the device itself, a $35.00 device setup fee, $2.32 for Boost Protect, $64.99 in accessories and $7.89 in tax.

      Boost Mobile stores are independently owned and operated; as such, they maintain their own phone inventory and set their own return and exchange policies. If you wish to return the device, you would need to work with the store directly.

      In the interest of customer service, a credit of $10.00 has been applied to your account to cover a week without service.

      We regret any inconvenience you may have experienced.

      Sincerely,

      Customer Answer

      Yes, boost compensated $25 total for the inconvenience and I still had to mail my phone to ******** which they had to power down and replace the *** (motherboard). While I am satisfied with Boost Corporation and ******** I am not happy with the independent seller on Antioch Road that sold me the defective phone. 

       

      The phone came out 12/16/23 and five months into providing a defective phone is unacceptable,  which I want the independent seller to take ownership by refunding or providing me an inconvenience fee because his customer care was not affective. 

       

      Once ******* repaired and reshipped the phone back to me, it was 6/19/24 before I could use the brand new phone I purchased.  Since policy for Boost independent retailers is to reimburse for a bad phone, he may have  sold me a defective phone that another customer returned.

       

      Besides, to refund me was unacceptable due to having had already loaded all my personal information on the phone that he could have retrieved, then troubleshooted and repaired himself. 

       

      I am not satisfied due to the extreme inconvenience and poor customer care in regards to the situation. Therefore, am requesting compensation from the independent reseller. 

       

      Regards,

       

      Tosca

      Dear Ms. *************** June 3, 2024, we received your complaint, dated June 2, 2024, filed with the Better Business Bureau.

      You stated you were charged five times in one billing period and you had the same issue last year. You requested copies of your bills, but this was refused. You requested a refund for the extra unauthorized payments.

      Our records indicate a payment of $25.14 was made on March 28, 2024, for the next month. On April 2, 2024, two payments were made, one for $25.14 and another for $5.00. The payment of $5.00 was used for a 2 GB data pack. On April 9, 2024,the $25.14 payment made on April 2, 2024, was refunded. That same day, a $30.00 payment was made. On April 28, 2024, your account was charged $25.14 for the upcoming month. At the same time, a data pack was purchased for $5.00. No payments were made prior to the next payment for your monthly service on May 29, 2024; however, due to a credit balance, your service was not interrupted.

      Of the payments made to your account in the period specified, none were found to be initiated by a Boost Mobile representative. We also found no evidence of any payments taken due to a system error. Your account currently has a credit balance of $2.26, and your service is paid through June 28, 2024.

      Our review found no unauthorized payments and your billing is accurate; therefore,a refund is not warranted.

      If there are further questions or concerns about this issue, please feel free to contact me at **************.
