Re: Your File Number: 24013365
To Whom It May Concern:
T-Mobile USA, Inc.(T-Mobile) is in receipt of your correspondence dated October 14, 2025,regarding the account referenced in the above-mentioned file number.
T-Mobile regrets any concerns our customer has regarding the account, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond. In reviewing this matter, the customers concerns are pertaining to device promotions.
Our records reflect that in September 2025, our customer activated their account and ported in two voice lines of service and activated one Home Internet line. They also purchased two new devices via our Equipment Installment Plan (EIP) offering. During this purchase,T-Mobile offered a device promotion which would reduce the monthly cost of the devices above.
The first billing statement that generated did not include the device promotion and as such, our customer contacted ************* to dispute the monthly EIP for their new devices. During these interactions, ************* advised the customer that the model of devices purchased were not eligible for the device promotion.
Please be assured that T-Mobile strives to provide world-class service to all our customers on each contact. We also make every effort to provide complete and accurate information to our customers. We apologize if any T-Mobile employee failed in any way to display that during our customers recent contacts with our retail team.
T-Mobile contacted the customer on October 21, 2025, and advised them of the above information. T-Mobile is pleased to report we were able to reach an amicable resolution to our customers concerns. Additionally, we provided the customer with our contact information should they have any additional questions regarding this matter.
Based on the foregoing, we respectfully request this complaint against T-Mobile be closed.
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

On August 11, 2023, ****** **** activated the account ending in 7593, with mobile number ending in 4267. The account was subscribed to our Lifeline-California Only rate plan, for Lifeline recipients.

I went into the TMobile store in ************* on 8/9/2025. My son had lost his phone and I pay an additional $18 a month for device protection. The store manager, *****, told me that she could make my bill cheaper. I was paying $199.19 a month for 2 phone lines and home internet. Both of the phones were paid off. ***** told me that if she gave me 4 phone lines, I could get a new phone for myself, as well, for free. Then, ***** gives me 2 Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G tablets. She told me that the tablets were also part of a promotion and were free. As ***** was setting the tablets up, I asked her 3 or 4 times if I was paying for the tablets, which ***** repeatedly told me no. At this point, ***** told me not to worry about my bill because my bill might be high the next week and then, it will drop down to about $220 a month. Fast forward to September. My August bill was $251.70. My September bill was $273.80. I called TMobile at some point in September. The woman that I spoke to over the phone told me that I have to go back to the store in ************* and that there is nothing she can do because the "store" in ************* is a franchise and is not an authorized TMobile dealer. However, she called the store and made an appointment for me with *****. ***** stated that I could not return the tablets because it has been over 14 days, but she could ask her supervisor to override it. When talking with TMobile on the phone, I found out that I am not paying for the 2 tablets, but I am paying for the service to the 2 tablets. If you look at the bill, it states I am paying for the tablets. The woman on the phone also stated that ***** never reported my son's phone as lost and that I could have just paid $250 for a replacement. My bill states that I am paying for 2 iPhone 14's. I return to the store. ***** acts like she has no idea who I am and like we don't have an appointment. She pulls up my bill and states my bill is high because of taxes and there's nothing she can do about it.Business Response

Subject: Complaint Regarding ***************** Flip 5 and ******************** ResponsesI am writing to express my frustration regarding ongoing issues with my ******* Flip 5 phone and the lack of consistent assistance Ive received at multiple T-Mobile stores.I have visited several different T-Mobile locations seeking help with my Flip 5, which has developed a screen defect. Each store has provided me with a different answer, leaving me without a clear or effective solution. The phone, which is now fully paid off, was recently declined for trade-in because of the damage damage that appears to be the result of a manufacturer defect. Please note, that the employee attempted to tell me that I damaged the phone, he implied that I took the screen off, which I informed that I had never tried because I knew that if I did that, it would void the warranty. I was very offended that in order to justify them not taking the phone back, they tried to put the blame on me and the manager never came out. This is the second ******* flip phone Ive owned, and both have experienced the same issue: the screen begins to lift or separate, making it impossible to use the keyboard or scan features properly. I have spoken with other customers who have encountered this same problem, suggesting this is a common manufacturing defect rather than user damage.I am requesting that T-Mobile either repair or replace my device at no additional cost or allow me to trade it in toward a new phone despite the defect. I have been a loyal customer, and I hope this matter can be resolved promptly and fairly.Please let me know how T-Mobile intends to address this issue. I can be reached at [your phone number] or [your email address] at your earliest convenience.Sincerely,******** ****Business Response

The company has been charging me for Protextion 360 on two devices for the length of the devices each month for something ai did not ask for nor agree to. They continued a protection plan from a previous phone and just continued on with it to an entirely different phone. I already have the same protection that I have been paying for through ***** the company I have bought one of the devices from why would I then pay again with them for the same thing I already have. When I complained I was told it would be removed and credited and I would be called on the Monday after September 19th. I was never called, was lied to, they refuse to pull the recorded call as proof only for feedback. And despite cancelling the plan they then reinstated it for this month again without my knowledge or consent. This is not the first billing issue they have made on my account. Previously they continued to charge me installments for an already paid off phone and had to credit me then as well. Now they refuse to credit anyone but will gladly take money from them.Business Response

*****************. (T-Mobile) is in receipt of your correspondence dated October 14, 2025, regarding the account referenced in the above-mentioned file number.
T-Mobile regrets any concerns our customer has regarding the account, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond. In reviewing this matter, the customers concerns are pertaining to a temporary payment method restriction, and a customer service experience.
In September of 2025, our customer remitted a payment via their checking account. However, in October of 2025, the payment was returned to T-Mobile as unpaid by the customers financial institution. Please note, pursuant to T-Mobile policy, if a payment is returned as unpaid, the customers ability to use the same payment method may be temporarily restricted for 30 days. Multiple returned payments using the same method can result in a permanent restriction from using that payment type.
In October 2025, our customer contacted ************* after attempting to resubmit the previously returned payment from their checking account but was unable to complete the transaction. ************* explained the ****** restriction on using the same payment method. Our customer was advised they could make a payment using an alternative method, such as a debit card, credit card, or cash at a retail store. Our records confirm the customer subsequently remitted the payment in cash at a T-Mobile retail location.
Please be assured that T-Mobile strives to provide world-class service to all our customers on each contact. We also make every effort to provide complete and accurate information to our customers. We apologize if any T-Mobile employee failed in any way to display that during our customers recent contact with *************.
Our office contacted our customer on October 21, 2025, regarding the above findings. To amicably resolve this matter a one-time credit was applied to our customers account, which updated their balance due to zero.
Furthermore, we provided them with our contact information should they have any additional questions regarding this matter.

T-Mobile regrets any concerns our customer has regarding the account, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond. In reviewing this matter, the customers concerns pertaining to our yearly upgrade program.
The Yearly Upgrade feature allows customers to upgrade their device every year, ensuring they have access to the newest technology and features. This feature is particularly beneficial for customers who prefer to stay current with the latest advancements in mobile devices with the freedom to upgrade every year, have their existing EIP credited, and stack with an eligible phone promotion when they trade in their existing phone. Please note that the Yearly Upgrade benefit applies to eligible rate plans. Customers must meet certain requirements to take advantage of the Yearly Upgrade benefit.
Our customer attempted to take advantage of our Equipment Installment Plan (EIP) for a Yearly Upgrade but was directed to complete a standard upgrade instead. After a detailed review, T-Mobile confirmed that the customer's Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max is fully paid off, and since there is no active EIP balance to clear, the Yearly Upgrade option is not available. T-Mobile was unable to verify that a down payment would be required when completing an order with a trade-in. Additionally, the trade-in of the Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max for a new Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max was successfully completed through the Yearly Upgrade program.
On October 26, 2025, our office contacted the customer and addressed their concerns. T-Mobile continues to work with our customer to reach an amicable resolution. Furthermore, we provided them with our contact information should they have any additional questions regarding this matter.

I was offered a free phone from a migration promotion. I cancelled my order on August 26th because they were going to charge me for my old phone and I couldn't pay both . I was told I would receive a refund for the cancelled order once the device was received in their warehouse. I was told they received the device on Sept 11th and they had to cancel the order on Sept 15th. I was told I'd receive my refund for $74.80 in ***** business days. I have called T-Mobile almost every single day since Sept 15th only to be told the same thing from other representatives and supervisors that there was a problem scanning the device or there was a discrepancy with a representative not filling out something correctly on my claim that would push my refund back a few more days. I have encountered this type of runaround almost every day since Sept 15th and it's frustrating when I'm only trying to have the money I'm due refunded back to me when I never had the device in my possession that they have back in there's. I have made many attempts to communicate with T-Mobile to resolve this dispute and have been unsuccessful everytime. It's frustrating when it's obvious that their intentions are to ignore my request to the point of me simply giving up... I have no other recourse that's why I'm asking the BBB for their help in me no longer having to engage in this unfair treatment and practice of a customer and consumer that has been unsuccessful for just trying to recover the $74.80 I'm owed even in the words of the many representatives and supervisors I've had to speak with almost daily. All I'm asking for is the $74.80 returned to my debit card for the device I never received that they have in their warehouse. I thank you BBB for your help and hopefully it'll prevent another customer and consumer from being unfairly treated for simply requesting their refund be returned. Thank you very much!Business Response

To Whom It May Concern:
*****************. (T-Mobile) is in receipt of your correspondence dated October 10, 2025, regarding the account referenced in the above-mentioned file number.
T-Mobile regrets any concerns our customer has regarding the account, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond. In reviewing this matter, the customers concerns are pertaining to a refund.
Our records confirm the customer activated their account in August of 2025, and had start up costs due at the time of activation. It should be noted that our customer cancelled the account during our buyers remorse period, and as such qualified for a refund of their upfront costs. Please be advised, T-Mobile records indicate that full upfront costs were refunded to the original method of payment on the date of cancellation. However, our customer has indicated they did not receive this refund to their financial institution.
On October 22, 2025, our office contacted the customer, and in an effort to amicably resolve their concerns, issued a refund equal to the up-front activation costs to the bank account provided by the customer. Additionally, we provided them with our contact information should they have any additional questions regarding this matter. Please note our customers account remains cancelled with a zero balance.
Based on the foregoing, we respectfully request this complaint against T-Mobile be closed.
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

We signed up with t-mobile and were quoted $186 per month along with $600 of ***** club gift cards. They told us the first month bill will be low ($25) and then the second month will be higher ($309) to adjust for credits. However, we have been billed $309 every month since. I have reached out to them to correct this multiple times. I went to multiple stores in the area, they said to come back when the manager was there. I came back and they said to visit another store. I went there as well. They said they can't do anything in person and to call their customer care line. I called them and they tried to set up a completely new deal for $210 instead. I said no, I wanted the original deal I was quoted. They gave me a one-time credit of $60 and said to reach out to the person that set up the deal. He told me to take the deal temporarily while he "reached out to higher ***** Nobody ever reached out or contacted us again. I texted him to see what the update was and he said he could now no longer help since I got set up with a new deal, (I never set up the new deal because I had a feeling they were going to do this). I also only received $260 of the ***** club gift cards.Business Response

I contacted T-Mobile yesterday because my services were set to be suspended and spoke to *** and was lied to me. She told me that if I paid $214 before noon that my and my services were suspended. I woke up this morning to no service and contacted them very upset and they refused to listen to the recording said that the conversation never happened and told me I had no choice but to pay 457 which caused me a hardship and I had to take the money from my rent which will now cause me to be in a worse situation. I drive for a living and needed to have phone connection in order to make the money to pay. They also are now adding a restoration fee for the suspended services after they told me this would not happen if $100 more. I am so upset with the way I was treated and feel they caused more of a hardship on my end.Business Response

T-Mobile regrets any concerns our customer has regarding the account, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond. In reviewing this matter, the customers concerns are pertaining to a restore fee.
A review of the account confirms the customers payment that was not received on time. T-Mobile provided the customer with calls, text messages and a billing notification providing the payment due date. As payment was not received timely, T-Mobile suspended the accounts ability to place outbound calls. As stated in our policy, if we suspend a customers service and then later reinstate it, a fee may be assessed. Therefore, when the customer remitted a payment, the account was restored, the account was assessed a restore from suspension fee of $20.00 per line of service plus applicable taxes, for up to three lines.
Please be assured that T-Mobile strives to provide world-class service to all our customers on each contact. We also make every effort to provide complete and accurate information to our customers. We apologize if any T-Mobile employee failed in any way to display that during the customers recent contact with our ************* Team.

I am rejecting this response because a review needs to be made and the recording from my conversation when I called needed to be listened to. They refused to pull the recording this is incorrect and this is a lie. I was informed that my services would not be disconnected as long as I called back the next day as promised and paid 215. I woke up in the day they told me to call and my services were cut off and I had to come up with 457 instead of 215 for there mistake and now I have restorations fees for there error. They are stealing money from people and feeding them lies and this is not okay.
