I discovered recently that Visible has been charging me $30/month for a mobile line I forgot to cancel and never used. These charges continued for over 2 years. The line had no usage whatsoeverno calls, no messages, no data. I contacted Visible support, and they confirmed the line was inactive and refunded only the most recent months charge. They told me to dispute the rest with my bank. However, **************** informed me they cannot dispute transactions older than 60 days, leaving me with no way to recover over $700 in unused service fees. I never received a single alert, message, or usage report from Visible during this time. This is not just an oversight; its a long-term billing error for services that were never delivered or consumed. I am requesting that Visible offer a partial refund or account credit as a goodwill gesture.I have records to show the transactions and a transcript from Visible support confirming the line was unused.Thank you for helping to resolve this fairly.Business Response

I purchased a Pixel 9a smartphone from Visible and two months of service from Visible. The terms were that the phone would automatically unlock after 60 days of service, which were completed when the two months of service ended. However, the phone has not been unlocked after 64 days of service. I attempted to chat with Visible but was told to try back later. Further, hundreds of posts on Reddit, Slickdeals, and other websites over the past seven days indicate that essentially everyone who purchased the phone in April is having the same issue as me. However, in seven days Visible has not fixed the issue. In addition, I had to purchase a third month from Visible when my phone did not unlock and want a refund of $25 for that month. I seek a full refund for all amounts paid to Visible since April 2025 (~$300) or unlocking the phone and refunding at least $25 for the third month.Business Response

Hi ******,
Visible's response is unacceptable because they unlocked my phone six days after it was supposed to be unlocked, but did not compensate me, especially for the $25 I was forced to pay them as a result in order to keep my phone service (since they failed to unlock my phone so I could not transfer to another carrier).

Subject: Complaint Against Visible Wireless Failure to Resolve Ongoing IssueI am writing to formally file a complaint against Visible Wireless regarding a persistent issue that remains unresolved despite multiple attempts to seek assistance from their customer support team.I am a customer of ********************, which operates under ******** network. The issue began when my phone continuously displays "My ******* Services" notifications, even though I am no longer a ******* Wireless customer and have an active account with ********************. I have attempted to line locked my phone number as Visible said to, but still get, "My ******* Services" feature on my device several times, but it keeps reappearing. This causes confusion and concern, as it suggests a possible misconfiguration or account linkage error between ******* and Visible.I contacted Visible support and explained the issue in detail. However, despite assurances that the matter would be resolved, the problem persists. I feel that I have not received adequate support or a meaningful solution from Visible. As a paying customer, I expect reliable ********************** and a functional device experience that reflects my chosen carrier.I am requesting the following:1. A full investigation into why "My ******* Services" continues to show up on my phone despite having a Visible account.2. A permanent resolution to stop this ******* service from interfering with my Visible service.3. Confirmation that my device and account are properly configured for Visible with no residual ******* account links.I hope this issue can be addressed promptly and professionally. I would appreciate the BBBs assistance in holding Visible accountable and helping to facilitate a resolution.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:I am writing to formally file a complaint against Visible Wireless, as my issue remains unresolved despite my attempts to seek assistance from their customer **********************.
**Issue Details:**
- I have been receiving notifications related to the ******* app on my device, even though I did not install this app. Visible Wireless has not provided a clear explanation for why these notifications appear or how to resolve them.
I would like Visible Wireless to:
1. Provide a clear explanation for why I am receiving ******* app notifications on my device when I did not install the app.
2. Assist in stopping these notifications if they are not relevant to my service.
Sincerely,
*** ****Business Response

Complaint: 23490421
I am rejecting this response because:I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with Visible Wirelesss rebuttal to my complaint.Their response did not address my core issue and instead provided irrelevant suggestions (e.g., uninstalling the ******* app or factory resetting my device) without explaining why I received the notification in question or how their solution resolves it.Key Concerns:1. No Explanation Provided: Visibles response claims there is "no risk of account termination" on their end, yet I never mentioned account termination. They failed to clarify the cause or offer a meaningful resolution.2. Runaround Tactics: Instead of investigating the issue, Visible deflected responsibility to me (e.g., blaming third-party apps or my device) without evidence that these are the cause.3. Unresolved Issue:The problem persists, and Visible has refused to acknowledge or address it substantively.Request:- Please mark this case as **Unresolved** and note my dissatisfaction with Visible Wirelesss handling of the matter.

Purchased a phone though Visible in November 2024. Activated it early December 2025. Said it was connected but never connected to cellular. Had to disconnect from service to save my phone number. Visible advised phone automatically unlocks after 60 days. In February 2025 they said it had to be activated so activated on a new line. A servic e*** says I didnt buy the phone from them so they are given the order number from 2024 and they acknowledge it was their phone. April 16, 2025 connected to service. After 61 days(today) contact Visible though their ******** messenger application since they dont have phone lines. One customer *** says the phone is unlocked but it needs to have a non-branded SIM card to be placed in tray. My US model of phone doesnt have an SIM tray. Go to T-Mobile and they say its still locked. Another service *** says to set back to factory and restart. That doesnt work. Another customer *** from ******************** says its only been 60 days and wait another day. It seems no one makes notes on their accounts when you attempt to get service, I simply want the phone unlocked.Business Response

I purchased a phone through ************************. I used their alternative payment method which was a monthly payment plan using Affirm. I never got a confirmation email nor did i get any kind of tracking, order confirmation code, etc. There was no proof on their end that i purchased the phone. I contacted both Visible and Affirm to no avail. Visible told me to contact Affirm of which they had proof i got the phone on the visible website. I filed a dispute through Affirm and after 30 days they told me they didnt have proof either yet they can clearly see on their end that the phone was purchased on ************************. Currently i have a $763.66 to pay and my phone is carrier locked so i cannot use it anywhere including visible.Business Response
