  I accepted the offer to have get free monthly cell service from Unity Wireless because of my disability. The customer service was so rude to me when I wanted to change over my number to a monthly service that I would happily pay for. I was very patient with them. I did not speak out of turn, I was very polite. They hung up on, they insulted me, they refused to call back when at least 6 times when they told me they would. They will not give me my port Id # so that I can get my old phone number back. It was horrible. They were rude to me. My disability is purely physical, they referred to a mental disability, which I do not have, I told them that I was a college graduate and I can understand what they are saying. I belief it was very discriminatory.

We also have noticed active usage on your account, there is usage for your minutes, SMS, and data. We are uncertain of your exact request, as there is no such thing as port ID number. If you meant your account number, it is as follows: ******. If there is anything else we can help you with, please do not hesistate to reach out.

  I lost my phone and *** I would also like my tablet due to never receiving one please and thank you

  Business Response

  Date: 11/08/2023

  Hello,

  Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. After a thorough review of the customer's account, it has been determined that the customer was never eligible for a tablet. According to the information we received from NLAD, they do not qualify either because they have already claimed their device benefit with a different carrier or due to other disqualifying reasons.
  
  If the customer is interested in purchasing a phone, they can proceed by requesting an invoice for a one-time payment of $20. Alternatively, if they prefer a tablet, they can opt for a one-time payment of $85. To proceed with either option, the customer can contact us via email at *********************************** and we will be more than happy to assist them further. In the meantime, we will promptly ship a new SIM card to the customer.

  Hello,

  We appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention. After a thorough examination of the customer's account, we found no indication that they desired to leave our system. There was no record of any calls or email exchanges with this customer expressing such intent. Given their preference not to be transferred back to us, we have permanently deactivated their account, and it will remain inactive.
  
  It's important to clarify that the screenshots provided by the customer belong to a different carrier, Excess Telecom, not Unity Wireless. We are uncertain if their complaint was intended for them or us. Regardless, we have deactivated their account. Should they decide to return to Unity Wireless in the future, they can reach out to us, and we will assist them with the transfer process.

  Hello,

  We apologize for any confusion that *** have arisen. When applying for our services, eligible customers have the opportunity to purchase a tablet for a one-time fee of $15. Upon reviewing your account, it was determined that you did not meet the criteria for this offer. That is why your aplication is a " sim only " order. Please note that our service plans do not include free phones; however, we do offer the option to purchase one if desired. Additionally, Unity Wireless is currently hosting an iPhone giveaway, and all new customers receive this email for a chance to enter if they wish.

  On or about aug 30th, I applied for ACP benefits with unity wireless. Although I did apply with them in the past. I didn't receive either a tablet and/or a sim card. This time they allowed me only sim card. When I emailed and got in touch with the company, they told me that the reason why I can only get the sim is because I already received the tablet in the past and that it's only a first time option. Now I wouldn't waste time coming on here just over some hurt feelings. The simple fact that they lied in order to decline my request of a tablet should say more about their true morels then anything.

  Hello,
  
  Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We would like to address this customer's complaint comprehensively.

  
  We represent a telecommunications company actively engaged in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), a government-funded initiative.To be eligible for this program, customers must be enrolled in various government assistance programs such as SNAP, ********* Social Security, VA,among others. Upon confirming their participation in any of these programs,customers are required to complete an application that involves sharing sensitive information, including their date of birth, social security number,and more. Subsequently, the application undergoes processing through the National Verifier database system to determine the customer's eligibility for ACP service.
  Once approved, customers are presented with several options.They can receive a free SIM card with service, purchase a connected tablet for $10.01 (provided they qualify for the discounted rate), or select from our range of listed phones It is important to note that if a customer does not meet the eligibility criteria for the $10.01 tablet, they may still purchase the tablet at its full retail price of $125. If a customer opts not to choose the tablet, they can still receive a free SIM card that includes free monthly data,SMS, and minutes. In the case of this particular customer, they did not qualify for a tablet subsidy but were eligible for free monthly service. Please refer to the attached screenshot of the customer's account, clearly indicating their ineligibility for a tablet subsidy. It is worth mentioning that if a customer qualifies for free service but not a tablet, it suggests they have already claimed a tablet with another provider. We have not decided if customers can get a one time tablet or not its the Government who lets us know if they qualify and based on that we proceed.

  Lastly, the customer claims to have applied with us in the past but we only see one record of this customer and not two.

  We hope this clarifies the situation and addresses the customersconcerns adequately. If you require any further information or assistance,please do not hesitate to contact us.

  I am rejecting this response because: Although I don't agree with the response, I wish not to pursue any outcome with unity wireless. They have clearly indicated that i should not be eligible for one of there tablets. But that i find it offensive as well as hurtful that they simply pick and choose who gets a tablet and who gets only a sim. It is for that reason that i do not want to have any affiliation with unity wireless. Thank you for your time.

  Hello *******,
  We understand your frustration, and we want to clarify that we do not have control over the eligibility criteria for receiving a tablet. Eligibility is determined solely by the National Verifier. The tablet subsidy is a one-time opportunity, meaning it can only be availed once. The retail price of the tablet is $125, but if you are eligible, you are required to make a one-time co-payment of $10-$15, and the government will reimburse the company for the remaining cost of the tablet, up to $100. To ensure fairness and to conserve government resources, tablet eligibility is limited to one per household.

  
  Upon reviewing your records, the National Verifier indicates that you have already received a tablet through another provider. To address your concerns and provide a solution that *** be satisfactory to you, we are prepared to offer a one-time discount of $50 instead of the full $125 tablet cost. If you would like to proceed with this offer, please reply to this message, and we will promptly send you an invoice for payment. Once we receive your payment, we will ship your new tablet with a pre-inserted SIM card for your convenience.

  
  For your reference, your enrollment ID with ******************** is WUT8618945.
  We appreciate your understanding and value your business. If you have any further questions or require assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

  I transferred my cell phone no. ************ to Unity Wireless on 7/25/23. They sent me a new *** card on 7/29/23. But after I inserted the *** card that was already activated by Unity Wireless, I couldnt call out to anyone at all. Therefore I asked them why I cant use my phone no, they just informed me that this phone have been de-enrolled from the Unity Wireless without informing me more the reason. Then, I requested to get my phone number back by transferring out to other phone service provider, they replied me that my account is already inactive without informing more details again. Ive been using this phone no. for long ******** have contacted with many people. So I cant loose this phone no. Thank you.

  Hello,
  
  Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Upon further investigation, it appears that the customer initiated their service with us on April 19, 2023, and has been utilizing our services since then (please refer to the customer account for the activation date and proof of usage). On July 25, the customer opted to transfer a previously held number from another provider, which was successfully ported to Unity Wireless (please review customer notes for verification). However, on July 29, the customer intentionally or unintentionally transferred their service from Unity to a different provider (please consult customer notes), triggering an automated email notifying them of their transfer and de-enrollment and account inactive.
  
  The customer did reach out to us, about their service not working.However, it appears that the issue is related to the National Verifier, which is asserting that another party is utilizing this benefit. This situation raises the possibility of identity fraud if the customer did not transfer themselves.In our attempts to resolve this, we have emailed the customer to provide us with a contact phone number and preferred call times for a direct conversation to facilitate a resolution, as opposed to relying solely on email communication.
  
  Furthermore, the customer has expressed interest in porting their number from Unity to yet another provider. They can seamlessly achieve this by furnishing the new company with the relevant phone number for the port-out process. If you manage to establish contact with the customer, kindly advise them to call ************, allowing us to collaboratively address and resolve this issue comprehensively.
