What do I do if I didnt get a receipt from Boost? The guy intentionally forgot to give it. Let me explain the reason why. As I walked in for a port. My phone ranged it was my grandson teacher. As I was talking I said sorry sir. ** was asking me for all my information. I would show him on the phone. As in showing the picture with account number. Also my phone number to port. Then he asked for my ID. I then waited while still talking. Finally my call ended. ** brought out a cardboard box. Not the original kind I usually see. So I asked was that a red one? ** said yes then proceeded to port. ** then gave me a free protector. Then picked a case after I said I didnt want to buy one. I thought he was being kind not sneaky. The phone wasnt brand new. The point is to get a new phone if were switching carriers. So he goes on to place it on a charger. So all this time Im not looking at the frame because its hidden. Far behind the counter space so I cant tell. ** hands me the phone then say it needs to charge. ** place it in the box then I leave. I got home something said look at the phone. I took off the case then see the dings, and scratches. So now tomorrow morning Ill be visiting him. ** may deny me a new device because he purposely didnt give a receipt. I know we have a certain time frame to change our minds. Now Im stuck with someone old used phone. Im ocd so mad as hell! I like everything neat, and nice.Customer Answer

I pay for my monthly service through Boost Mobile exclusively through top up cards. In May of this year I bought a phone from Boost because the cost to repair my damaged phone exceeded the purchase price. I gave the company my debit card number and the transaction proceeded.I'm August I found that my debit card had been charged for my monthly service, despite already having paid by top up. When I contacted **, they were totally unhelpful, telling me they could not refund the payment, nor could they remove my debit card info. However, i could prevent "auto payments" by toggling a button on my app 'Account Page'. I promptly did so.In OCTOBER (no charge in September) ANOTHER $40 charge from them was processed by my bank. The "toggle" on the app REMAINS OFF indicating no automatic charge should have occurred. And, as before, I'd previously "topped up" by purchasing a prepaid Boost card at my local grocery store.Another lengthy, this time very testy, call to ** had the same results. The ** rep is CLUELESS (by accident or by design) and can do nothing to refund the money. I am out 80 dollars for service NOT rendered because it had already been paid. And the company continues to hold my card/bank information "hostage" even after being DIRECTLY TOLD to remove it.Business Response

Dear ****************:
On November 2, 2023, we received your complaint, dated November 1, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
You stated that you pay monthly for your service using top up cards. You purchased a new phone and used your debit card for the transaction,but you were then charged for your August 2023 payment through your debit card even after using your top up card for that month. You requested to have the card removed from our system, but you were charged again in October through your debit card after once again already paying with your top up card. You requested a refund of $80.00 for the two months you were overcharged.
A review of your account shows that you have a credit balance of $120.00 that you may use towards your monthly bill via the Boost Mobile application. I can confirm that your debit card information is no longer in our system.
The Boost Mobile Terms and Conditions disclose that payments remitted to Boost Mobile are final and non-refundable.

I am rejecting this response because:The business says their terms and conditions stated that payments are not refundable. The so called "payments" were NOT voluntary. They were fraudulent transactions, accessung my bank account WITHOUT my permission or consent.
Furthermore, I ALWAYS keep a credit balance (pay well in advance) on my bills so I have a cushion against any issues (such as being hospitalized when bills come due, which has happened to me).
The $80 in question has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the credit balance. The $80 was withdrawn (40 dollars on two occasions) from my bank account WITHOUT MY AUTHORIZATION. It MUST be returned.

As of today, I received two emails from Boost Mobile. Each of them noted a "credit" to my account. One was for $50 and one was for $30. I'm not quite sure why they weren't for the original amount - $40 each.
Nevertheless I can only assume this is the company's attempt to settle this matter (although the messages make no reference to that).
I am NOT totally satisfied. They fraudulently removed money from my bank account for services I had already paid for. Thus "solution" benefits only them because it ties up money to them that they are not and were not entitled to.
However, due to a medical issue which is occupying my attention, I have decided to allow this resolution. I will use the funds in my Boost account and name NO other deposits to it until they are gone. And then it us extremely likely I will take my business elsewhere. I will NOT do business with a company I find to be untrustworthy and I will certainly NOT give them any kind if recommendation. I don't do that in general. But if asked, people will know EXACTLY how I feel about their business practices.

I would like to withdraw the previous mor information" entry. My daughter just took a call from a representative of Boost named **** in ********. He said the company would be issuing me a check for the $80.00.
I prefer that response than the amounts credited to my account. I assume they will rescind those, and since i already have credits, they can certainly do that. The check was said to arrive in the next couple of weeks. Assuming it does, I will be completely satisfied with the settlement. Thank you.

You stated the two payments taken out of your account for $40.00 each were unauthorized. You mentioned that the $40.00 credit balance on your account was due to you paying extra per month in case of emergencies. You requested the full $80.00 be refunded.
When I spoke with your daughter over the phone today, I informed her that I requested a refund check for $80.00, which should arrive within **** business days.

You stated that on October 25, 2023, you received a surprise box with an iPhone 15 Pro enclosed. You indicated you did not place this order and shortly after receiving the phone, you started to get text messages from someone claiming to be with Boost Mobile. ******** care told you this is considered fraud and agreed to arrange for you to return the device, and advised you it could take up to 45 days for you to receive the refund. You said you canceled the card that was used for the payment and the next day your service was interrupted. You requested a refund.
Our records indicate that the order, 5447-906691-7806, for the iPhone 15 Pro *** was placed through your online account. As you said you did not place this order, we would highly recommend you update your login password.Your account was interrupted, as you disputed the payment with your financial institution; however, service was restored on October 28, 2023, once you made payment for the disputed amount.
As you stated you canceled the card that was used for the order, a refund check for $1,277.99 was requested. Please allow up to 21 business days for processing and delivery.
We strive to provide excellent customer service and we regret that your experience was unfavorable.

On April 11th, I bought a new phone from boost mobile but couldn't activate it with Sim provided. Called boost they said I have to purchase another Sim did that and had to set automatic payments. That account didn't work so another account was made because boost said that was only way to get phone to work. So 2 accounts were charged every month for one phone. I knew I was getting over charged and tried to cancel 2nd line but no representatives could find the missing account until today. Spoke several times and they can see no service was ever used on that Sim. Wanted to give me $26.37 credit for the month of October but I've paid $210 since April on a line I never had.Customer Answer

I've been a Dish customer for 17 years. When I found out that they offered cellphone service I signed my family up. We financed our phones with them (Boost Infinite) on October 9th. We received three phones. Two are up and running. My son's phone is not. It's been 22 days!!! No regard for our inconveniences. They keep telling me to be patient and that our case has been escalated. I called yesterday and I was not escalated! They casually told me that I would be getting a call tomorrow, which is now today. I refused to let them put me off once again and demanded a call ASAP. They told me that my case was escalated to the highest level. Well, no call yesterday or today. They told me that if I cancelled my service I would have to pay for the phones. I asked them for the address to return the phones. I really do not know what to do at this point. They obviously are not Dish, to me anyway. I've been with Dish because of the fantastic service I've had for almost two decades. If this continues, I'll cancel both services, I'll return these phones and never look back. This has been so upsetting because we have had to keep our other phone service on while we wait for them to activate my son's phone. The first sim cards they sent to us were melted. We asked for another one. They hesitated for days and finally sent us one. Now that we have the new card, all they have to do is activate it, but they won't. We've paid hundreds of dollars this month for two different carriers. We cannot shut off our prior service until all of our phones are working. I feel your company should reimburse us for that.Business Response

You said you successfully activated two of your three phone lines. However, even after an escalated ticket was opened up you were unable to activate the third. You would like this activated or to return the phones.
Unfortunately, I was unable to reach you by phone.
I reviewed the opened ticket and worked with our IT team, and we were able to activate the line in question. Due to the difficulties you encountered, a $75.00 adjustment was made on your account.

We waited on a response from this company, but did not see one. That doesn't mean we didn't recieve one, though. Since my case is closed either because I missed the communication or really did not recieve one, the phone is yet to be working. We still have our other cell phones from our old account. The last thing we heard was that when the phone is working, let us know. Well, today, we will try again to see if it is working. It should be obvious to Boost Infinite that the phone is not being used. No one has tried to call me for a very long time.Customer Answer

Here they are!!! I had no idea I had to come back to the BBB website to view my messages. I thought they would be sent via my email. Sorry about that! Again, today it is November 14th. We got a sim card in the mail, but were told that we did not need it. The phone should just start working. I will come right back to this spot tomorrow if it still does not work.
Sorry for the delay. I am not familiar with this new way of responding on the BBB website. I seem to remember that this was all done through emails in the past...

Acct: #************ I made a payment recharge fee of $25.17 on 8/13/2023 at 10:17am When I tried to make a call it wasnt activated. I called Boost Mobile to activate service. My phone records states the call was made at 8/14 at 10:31 am. The call lasted 45 minutes. I asked customer service to refund my payment because I paid for other service because I needed my phone to work immediately to even speak to them. They stated they ******* refund because it was in activation status. They tried to troubleshoot the problem and find out why my phone wasnt activated. I called back to check status on 8/13/23 at 12:11pm for 17 minutes 8/13/23 at 12:52pm for 35 minutes 8/13/23 at 1:28pm for 40 minutes 8/14/23 at 2:09pm for 9 minutes Calls are recorded. Since they ******* do the refund they sent me a new *** card. When I revisited the *** card the phone still wouldnt activate and no one at option to send refund because the system status was in activating mode. This call was on 8/19/23 at 10:22 am for 38 minutes Going back and forth for a total of 3 hrs and 12 minutes. They said someone higher up will call me about refund and activation. I called back Boost Mobile 10/30/23 11:19am for 47 minutes Why havent I received refund or activation? The customer service rep ******* help so put me on to a manager named *****. ***** said she ******* give me refund or activation. She said I needed to pay again for activation. She also stated there was no records of notes or calls to boost mobile. I was more than patient at this point. She stated another manager will call me within 24 hours. This didnt happen.Im now contacting BBB to resolve. I'm out of my payment of $25.17, no activation of service and a total of 4 hours of back and forth with Boost Mobile. I also cant use a phone I purchased from outside source. Im looking for a refund and of course something for the inconvenience of time and money wasted. Money and activation isnt unreasonable to ask for.Business Response

What is going on? My order and my wifes order were both cancelled and no explanation was given to us. My order number is below and this is my wifes order #****-068740-5463 and my order number is #****-012330-2281. This is completely unacceptable i dont understand how you can charge someone then say we are not eligible and customer service could not provide a reason. Also how convenient that we have to call and get refunds as they are not issued automatically.Business Response
