  Consumer Cellular is the worst kind of business, taking advantage of people on fixed incomes. My dad bought a phone and sent it back within the 14 days, received an email stating that he was being refunded the over $500 and then drafted out almost $530 from his checking account! Then told him it would be 1-5 business days when he would see that back into his account. Fast forward two weeks later, no reimbursement and he calls again but with me this time (he called two times prior by himself) and we are on the phone over and hour and ten minutes of them going back and forth on where this money is!! Then all of sudden, conveniently he had an old agreement that no one told him about from 3 years ago and that had to be paid out and so they did him a favor and took it from the $530 deducted from his account and made it whole!! I lost it!! *****, unprofessional and completely and conveniently never told my dad this, who by the way is on a fixed income, and said that he can keep that 3 year old phone because hes paid for it now. This company is a piece of work and was very smart on what they told my dad and then never bothered to email, call or even explain to him at any point that he was never going to see that refund that they emailed him about!! Just kept saying you should see that soon! Shady shady business!!! My dad will be okay as he has me and my brother but at this point it wasnt about the money anymore but what infuriated me was taking advantage of my dad and masking it as a good business or service! You are a poor excuse for a company and how you do business and treat people will come back to you!! I hope this helps someone to not ever do business with this company!!!

  Ive had the service a month and its been a nightmare. One bar coverage, dropped calls, inaudible calls, incoming voicemails and calls that dont register. I live in a large metro area and not the boondocks but still bad service. Ive missed important calls from this sub par company. Ive been online with their customer service constantly being told to reset this and turn phone on/off. Said they sent refreshed signals to my phone to reconnect to tower which sounds like bs. Their advertising is downright lies. As soon as I can Im going back to ATT. Never had any issues with servicr and only left them because of cost. But consumer cellular horrible service not worth it.

  Consumer Cellular started a service plan for me without ever being asked or authorized to do so. I called to inquire about the possibility of switching my service to Consumer Cellular, but indicated I was in the middle of working through some information with my current provider and would not be able to switch for several months. The person I was speaking to apparently set me up with a plan and began billing me for service. I did not even think that could be possible as he indicated he would need to send me a new CIM card for my phone and we would need to test it out. Now that they erroneously established a plan without permission, they expect they have me on the hook for the service they started. Apparently the sales person wanted a commission for a sale. I owe them nothing and will likely not have work with them in the future.

  They charged $5 for a sim card on a phone with an embedded sim card already. Customer service told my 82 year old father to drive to Target to get a new SIM card at his own expense. That is a reckless act on their customer service part. Originally was told it will take 24 hours to reset and has been more than 3 plus days. It is incompetence on their part to not have service for so many days out. Not one person at Consumer Cellular will admit they screwed up. Run away at all costs. Not worth the aggravation dealing with them,

  Consumer Cellular offers unlimited calling plans for $15.00 per month, plus tax.  In addition, our customers can add a data and text package.  Each package contains unlimited texting and a specified amount of data, plus tax.  

  When our customer's order our devices using our interest free EasyPay plan they pay a small down payment/plus tax and monthly payments each month until the device is paid in full.  As outlined in the EasyPay agreement, if service is canceled the full balance of the device is due.  This information can be located in the electronically singed EasyPay agreement. 

  Please contact us if we can be of additional assistance.

  Tech support used to be good now utterly useless. Purchased their newest basic phone, the Verve Snap, which is advertised to have 8GB of memory and music player. The manual has no information on how to load/transfer music files to the phone. First call to Tech Support told me the phone does not have this capability even though this feature is advertised on their website and was a primary factor in purchasing this phone and switching my service to Consumer Cellular. Second interaction was with their Chat support and I was told they are not trained to assist with this type of request and that playing musing on your phone is not a basic function. I am left with a phone that cannot provide a simple task that phone from 20 years ago could accomplish.

  I owed them money. Someone from the company collection services took the money from my bank account without my authorization. When I called them about it, I was told that it was done through my online account. That I had mafe the payment. I would never authorize something that was going to put my account in negative. They outright lied to me. I wouldn't recommend Consumer Cellular to anyone. They will rip you off and blame you for it. When I tried to get a refund, they told me it couldn't be done. This company is not good. Don't go to this company for your cell service.
