Boost wrongfully suspended my service for nonpayment, even though both my Boost and bank accounts show that my payment ($35) went through - AND IT IS AUTOPAY THROUGH BOOST. I have been without cell service for eight days now and want my service restored immediately. I opened a ticket via a call to support on May 4 (the first day) and was told he could see my payment, their error, and restoration would take 24 hours. The next day, I engaged support via chat with TWO DIFFERENT AGENTS over the course of the day, both of whom also admitted Boost error/"glitch" for the wrongful suspension and told me they escalated my ticket. (I asked each if there was something I could do differently to ensure this doesn't happen again, and both said no, problem on their side.) The first chat agent told me my service would be restored in 10 to 20 minutes; when it was not, I reached out again and was told maybe 24 hours, though probably "in the next couple of hours ... before the day is over." I did not even bother to try over the weekend, called again Monday afternoon (May 8). That agent first suggested my ticket was about a refund, which I clarified was incorrect - I want my service restored. She also confirmed Boost's responsibility/that the suspension was unwarranted, told me the correct department has my ticket, apologized and said restoration of my service may take up to a week from the suspension beginning. She suggested I call the next day to check my ticket status and/or, if my service had been restored as she hoped it would, to discuss a credit for my lengthy disruption of service. I called the next day (May 9), was told the correct department NOW has my ticket and restoration would happen within 24 hours. Called May 10 and was told the correct department now has my ticket, which was opened, according to the agent May 8 (incorrect, opened May 4), and it will likely take 72 hours from that time for my service to be restored - which now also has passed.Business Response

I was double charged for my bill on March 14th. When I contacted boost about this because it made me overdraw my account they told me there was nothing they could do to refund me because their system was down I contacted them several times before they were finally anole to refund me on march 31st! I explained the fees I was being charged as a direct result of their error and was assured that I would be made whole when they were able to refund me when I spoke to the lady on **** she informed me of this at that time I had incurred $45 in fees which she credited to my account and since the $5/day was still racking up when they were finally able to refund me then they would credit my account for the remainder I then spoke with another customer service rep later (not sure the date) and she instructed me to go to the nearest boost retail store that they could refund me I told her it was ************************************************ they could help so 1.5 hrs and 70 miles later I get a look like I was crazy when I got to the boost store so now Im out $30 in gas on top of still no refund when they finally were able to send the refund on march 31st. The total in fees I was charged was $115 and spent $30 and wasted 3 hours on the trip that they instructed me to make. Now when I talk to customer service they say well your account has already been credited they fail to comprehend that the $45 was the CV argues Id incurred to that date not until I was actually refunded so last Thursday I chatted with a person who understood what I was saying and assured me that I would finally get the $45 out bsck on my card account and that as soon as it did that they would put in the request for the $100 remaining that request never went in. I finally got a ticket # Sunday and was told ***** hours it has now been 96 hrs and nothing still. I voiced my concerns on their social media page about the lack of customer service and they blocked me instead of addressing themBusiness Response

Dear ********************:
On May 23, 2023, we received your correspondence, dated May 11, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
You said you were charged double in March of 2023, which caused you to incur overdraft fees, and you indicated that you were mistakenly informed to go to a store to get a refund. You claim that you were promised a $145.00 refund to cover the overdraft fees and the cost of gas to go to the store, which you have not received yet. You also expressed concern with the customer service you experienced.
Our records indicate a $27.75 refund was processed on March 31, 2023, to cover the double payment.
Unfortunately,your request for a $145.00 refund cannot be met. However, a $45.00 courtesy credit was issued on March 17, 2023, and I issued an additionally one-time $100.00 credit in the interest of customer service.
We strive to provide excellent service and we regret that your experience was unfavorable.

In February 2023 I ordered a *** Card from Boost Mobile because I thought, based on their ******************* that the *** would work in my Laptop Computer, which is set up for cellular data connections. After receiving the *** and working with Boost Mobile Support, I found out that their *** Cards would not work in my laptop, so I told them I would be cancelling my account. I was refunded the amount I paid, at least that was what I was told. I was assured that they had cancelled my account and that I had nothing to worry about. They lied. I've been unable to check my bank account until recently due to health issues. Come to find out that I was still charged for the months of February, March, April and May for a total of $126.13. I called their customer support and they told me they could only refund the last payment of $25.23 and that I was out the rest, which left a balance of $100.90 which they basically stole from me. The *** card was never activated, never assigned to any device and never used for any talk, text or data. They wanted me to contact my bank to get my money back which would mean cancellation of my debit card and leaving me without a means to get at my money for 2 or more weeks while I waited for a replacement card and then I would have to go around to all my bill holders to change account information. This is uncalled for. They stole my money and I want it back. My Account Number is: ************. The number assigned to the account is: **************.Business Response

You said that you were unable to activate Boost Mobile service, but you were charged for it.
Our records indicate that you enrolled your plan on AutoPay, which has since been removed.
You received two previous refunds, so I refunded the remaining two payments, totaling $50.47. Please allow three to five business days for processing.

Boost has wrongfully charged my Credit Card TWICE After I made my monthly payment already thru my Refill card. I had to report a dispute and thankfully my Bank resolved those issues. As of last night May 10th into today May 11, 2023, I've been trying to contact customer service from my cell to get my number transferred to another carrier and have been on hold for 1 Hour and transferred to 3 different departments and after the third transfer, they disconnected me! They did this intentionally when they asked me the reason I wanted to discontinue with their service, they literally disconnected the call. They're holding my cell number and refuse to release it! This is a no contract plan $40 a month. Boost mobile have been having MAJOR ISSUES Worldwide with their ************************ This is why they are offering ppl $25 unlimited. They're trying to redeem themselves of All of the evil Wrongdoing they have been doing. I've only had them for 4 Months and, they are the Absolute worst company that exists! You never ever can get through to anyone when you dial customer service. It literally took me one week to finally get my service connected with ZERO assistance from them. I finally was able to do it online myself. I Pray this company to very soon be out of Business!! The *** / President of Boost mobile is running a major Scam rooted in Greed!! This is the worst yet. There are many other problems I've experienced with these ppl but it will exceed the 500 characters I have remaining to type. Seek out other Cell phone carriers! You certainly Do Not want to get messed up and waste precious time with ignorant people!Business Response

I cancelled my service with Boost Mobile on 4/18/2023 and was supposed to get a refund of $57.00 because I had autopay. They never sent me the refund. I gave them a good 10 business days plus before I called and they transferred me 3x. The third person just hung up. I called back and had to wait an additional ***** minutes just to speak with someone. Then I am sure they would transfer me around once again.

You stated that your Boost Mobile service was disconnected on April 18, 2023. You were supposed to receive a refund of your ***** payment, as it was withdrawn via AutoPay. You requested that we provide a refund.
Please be advised that AutoPay is a service offered by Boost Mobile that automatically debits your payment card of choice for your service monthly on your due date. As your account was still active and enrolled in AutoPay when the payment in question went through, we maintain that remains valid. Additionally, as Boost Mobiles Terms and Conditions state that all payments remitted to Boost Mobile are final and non-refundable, your refund request is respectfully declined.

On May 23, 2023, we received your complaint, dated May 11, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
You stated that you experienced changes in performance when using applications that require data usage. You also stated that your childs phone has been experiencing service issues.
Our ***************** and Product-Specific Terms disclose that to preclude the possibility that unlimited data plan customers who use high volumes of data may occupy an unreasonable share of network resources, Boost Mobile employs network prioritization on the Boost Mobile network. When customers on unlimited data plans use more than 35 GB of data during a single billing cycle, Boost Mobile reserves the right to de-prioritize or reduce the speed available to 2G speeds for the remainder of that billing cycle. Customers who subscribe to unlimited data plans may also notice changes in the performance of data-intensive applications such as streaming video or online gaming when subject to de-prioritization or the reduction in speeds. Please note that when adding additional data to your plan, this additional service requires additional payment.
As stated in the Boost Mobile Terms and Conditions (which can be viewed on our website www.boostmobile.com), coverage and quality of wireless services and data speeds may be affected by conditions beyond our control. Wireless services cannot be regularly transmitted through concrete structures, such as buildings, basements, walls, and various other structures. As a result, customers may experience difficulty making or receiving calls while indoors.
In addition, data coverage is not available everywhere and service speeds are not guaranteed. ************ speeds may depend on the service purchased and actual speeds will vary. There are gaps in coverage within our estimated coverage areas that (along with other factors both within and beyond our control which may result in dropped and blocked connections, slower service speeds, etc.) may impact the quality of service. Please note that the nature of wireless signal precludes any carrier from providing seamless coverage, and Boost Mobile offers no warranty or guarantee of such.
Please note that our records show that your account is currently active, and consuming network resources as expected

You stated that your sons device only makes calls in and out, and you said that data and text services do not work.
Our records show that this account has reached its monthly 4/5G data limit of 10 GB, and the additional 1 GB of add-on data. This data allotment will reset with your next billing period.
As the device is able to make and receive calls, this tells us that the phone is connected to the Boost Mobile network, and consuming network resources as expected. Please reach out to your devices manufacturer directly with further issues related to the devices performance.

On March 28th (the same date my Autopayment went through for this months service) I received a strange text message from someone claiming to have access to my account as shown in the the screenshots. Boost without my authorization added a random persons email and gave them access to my account which includes my address, name and credit card information undermining my security. I angrily contacted boost immediately and they told me "oops were sorry" and within less than 30 mins completely shut off my services. After exhausting all my options of calling and through chat They told me I needed a replacement SIM card. They opened up a ticket to send me a new one which I never received. I had to open up two more tickets to get a new sim which I also didn't receive. Thats three times and three separate times they "attempted" to send me a new SIM. Today April 14th 2023 I attempted to get a refund for the month of service which I have not received and still do not have, to no avail. I have tried filing an FCC complaint and it says my phone number is not available despite them telling me my account is "Active"Business Response

On May 10, 2023, (around 1:27 AM), I activated a second line/phone via eSIM with Boost Infinite. When I went to view my bill, I quickly noticed I was double charged $25 for Line 2. After my having seen that double charge of $25, I immediately contacted Boost Infinite via chat, and the representatives I had chatted with told me all sorts of things that didn't make any sense, such as start day 0, billing cycles, and something about the billing month of the last month is the full month of the next month, and other such illogical nonsense. All I know is that I activated the line on May 10, Boost Infinite has the activation dated on 05/09/2023. My bill period is 05/10/2023 - 06/10/2023. Therefore, Boost Infinite is double charging me for two months when I only had the line for one day. I would like to be refunded the $25.Business Response

I was sent a text from boost with an offer to buy a sim card and upgrade my account to a new $25 unlimited plan. After getting the sim card boost refused to complete the activation resulting in me having two accounts with the same phone number. One account is forcing me to pay $50 monthly while my other account has the correct billing info of $25 but is inactive because boost will not fix the issue. Recently my plan was changed to $25 monthly but this does not fix the issue with my account not being properly activated on my new sim card nor does is compensate me for the $175 extra I've paid for service that only works at home on my WiFi. I have recordings of boost representatives refusing to help me, even hanging up in my face. I've been a customer for over a decade and I can't believe the way I've been treated and the way this issue has been handled.Business Response

Hello, I recently attempted to port my mobile phone number from Boost Mobile to T-mobile. In order to port a number successfully, the new carrier needs an account number and a pin number in order to port from the old carrier. Boost mobile refuses to provide the necessary information to complete the number port. They are in violation of FCC laws. My hope is that they will provide the appropriate information in order to complete the number port.Business Response

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
