  Hello,

  We attempted to email the consumer on 03/25, however no response was received. We also attempted to call the consumer but no response was found, a voicemail was left. It is unclear what the issue they are facing is, as their account looks active and there is usage on the account. If they can reply to our email we can go ahead and help them out immediately.

  Hello,

  We hope this message finds you well. Our records indicate that you previously had two accounts with **********************, both of which were disconnected on different occasions: one on January 1, 2024, and the other on April 2, 2024. 
  
  Currently, the *** program is paused and has not been renewed by Congress, so we are unable to offer free monthly service at this time. However, Unity Wireless now provides monthly plans starting as low as $15. 
  
  If you are interested in applying, please visit our website for more information.

  Hello,

  We are currently facing some challenges with the national verifier. As a result, we're temporarily unable to process your account back into **********************.
  
  We are actively working to resolve this issue and will promptly notify you once everything is back to normal. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this time.

  We have tried to email Ms. **** via email a few times, however it keeps coming back because her inbox is full. All accounts with ********************** under the name " Lacey ****" are currently inactive due to her being transferred out to a different provider. However, we did find another account with the same email address on file, as well as home address, under the name " *************************."  We can not move forward with sending a new tablet because the defective one was never returned to our facility even though we have sent a return label via email, and have also shipped one out physically to the address on file. We have contacted Ms. **** once more via email and are awaiting her response

  I will be uploading the tracking information from *** for the returned iPad. My address is a MAILING address for ******'s iPad and they know that. I returned their iPad as soon as I received their return label. They are such liars...they have a different story now that I was transferred out but before they said their national verifier wasn't working. My email is full and I can't get it to work no matter what but they have my phone number and I've called them several times. They are straight up lying about not getting the broken iPad bc it was delivered by *** with their label they sent me by mail. 

  They are welcome to call me at **********

  Complaint: 21471078
  
  I am rejecting this response because:

  You continuously prove that this company is dishonest and lacks integrity!

  I've attached screenshots of the emails where I clearly applied for a PHONE and your company responded offering items only a phone, not a tablet can provide. I also attached the screenshot where your company tried to port my old cell to the new cell that YOUR company was supposed to send me. You sent me a defective SIM card initially. I tried to use it in my old phone. You all shipped me a new SIM with a cheap tablet. I have a phone number that I cannot use and a tablet made for a 2nd grader with **************** that is slower than dial-up. 

  I have communicated my concerns to this company for months! I told them that I was going to file a complaint with the BBB if the issue was not corrected. This was more than 2 months ago. Here they are, still saying "contact us". Why? For more lies? I wrote in my initial complaint what I wanted as a resolution. There isn't anything left to discuss.

  
  Sincerely,

  ed", but it's only unlimited up to 128kps then the speed slows down so people don't abuse the internet. One, that's false advertisement. Two, I'm not a child. I can be on the internet as long as I want. They don't have the right to police my Internet time when I signed up for an unlimited service! Then he told me I'd have to pay for faster service. He said he would increase my speed as a courtesy this one time. That was yesterday afternoon. By 9pm, it was back to dial up pace. Slower than dial up. ****** maps on my cellphone that's been disconnected since December loads faster than that raggedy out of date tablet, that I can't make calls on, loads. I've sent 4 emails. No 1 has responded. I want 2 know who I need to speak to at the government level to END their contract with Unity Wireless. This company is a joke & a ripoff. I can't get school work or anything done. Their products are below substandard. They are cheap, out of date, and you cannot load additional apps to any of them.

  Hello! 

  Thank you for bringing this to our attention. When you applied for service, you qualified for a free tablet. We do not offer free phones unless it is part of a promotion which was not current at the time you applied. We understand that sometimes customers would like a phone which is why we offer it at a discount of $20. If you would like a phone please let us know and we can send you an invoice. If you are having consistent issues with your tablet we can definitely solve that. Please email our team at ****************************** and they can help you with getting a claim created. We can also take a look at your internet plan and discuss some options that will make you happy.

  I have serious concerns with this complaint and how it was handled. How did BBB come to the conclusion that they made a "good faith effort" to resolve the complaint and that they addressed my concerns? They did NOT! Also, the passive aggressive response in capitalizing 'NOT' in your response to me speaks to the very low level of emotional intelligence of whoever wrote it. I digress... It appears no one read my responses or took me seriously. This company promised a phone and never delivered. Their response was that they don't offer phones. I sent the email exchange showing you where they had. Yet, you claim they made a "good effort" when my initial complaint led with how dishonest they are. I priced that in their own correspondence. They provided me with a phone number, said they were going to send me a phone, attempted to transfer my old service to theirs, but you claim they are being honest when they said they didn't offer me cell service. All of this is clear in the emails they sent to me!! This complaint needs to be reviewed by someone higher up than whomever responded to me and closed it. They are not great at their job!

  The account referenced is active and we have refreshed the network to ensure you have a better quality connection. Upon checking your account you did not qualify for a free device but we can offer you discounts on a smart tablet or phone! If you are interested please let us know and we can certainly get that taken care of.

  I just received ( on Saturday) my unity wireless sim card and they said I would get unlimited data, text and talk. On Sunday I called to activate and they said I have 1 gb of service which is 1 hour of internet service a month! I told them this is bate and switch and this is illegal. I have the email that states I was supposed to receive unlimited service. I called and they basically did nothing. Ths is a fraud and someone should do something

  Hello!

   

  Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. Although our service is advertised as "unlimited," we do have certain thresholds in place to prevent any misuse or abnormal behavior. Depending on your usage patterns, you may be transitioned to different tiers. While your data is indeed unlimited, it is important to note that speeds are capped at 128KBPS, and if you exceed your high-speed data limit, you will experience a reduction in speed. We can certainly attempt to troubleshoot if you are having issues with your service. Please reach us at ****************************** and a representative can help you.

  It that is not right. Both the national Fair buyer desk and the *** support desk confirm that unity wireless has my information and has my service and is taking money for my service but not providing me service cuz I don't even have a SIM card. So how are they getting paid my money and then not giving me service this has happened for a couple months in a row now and they need to rectify this every time I call the 800 number they list I can't get through to anybody it just says the voicemail recording and then says goodbyeaused significant inconvenience and disruption to my daily life, and I am deeply dissatisfied with the lack of resolution from Unity Wireless. I believe that their actions not only violate my rights as a consumer but also demonstrate a disregard for ethical business practices.I kindly request your assistance in addressing this matter and seeking a prompt resolution from Unity Wireless. Your intervention in this situation would be greatly appreciated as I strive to regain the service that I am entitled to. The phone number for the service that was switched without authorization is ************ Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and assistance in resolving this issue.Sincerely,***************************

  Hello!

   

  We apologize that you have been experiencing issues with your account being transferred into our system. We do not automatically re-enroll any consumers without their permission. Upon checking your account it is deactivated and there will be no transfer in unless it is specifically requested. You may reach out to your new provider if you would like to stay with them and that should resolve this issue.
