Metro PCS Reviews

almost$2000 lost & fees
Open account with Metro PCS and the very next day no service for the whole day, my wife in the hospital, me away 50 miles from home, couldn't run my business on that day, my costumers mad, law suite, lost thousands of dollars becase of them. I paid all the fees, but they did a mestake by computer. Talk with supervisor, she addmite the mistake, but nothing was done. I asked for the next step up supervisor, call her 3 times, left message, no response. Somebody need to pay for my lost and I'm ready to hire a lowyer. Just a night mare! Very bad experience!

Service
I PURCHASED MY PHONES IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND TRAVELED ABOUT 55 MILES FOR A VACATION IN BIG BEAR LAKE. NOW I CANT SEND OR RECEIVE PHONE CALLS. I CONTACTED METRO PCS VIA COMPUTER, THEY TOLD ME TO CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE. I CALLED IN SPOKE TO SOME GUY (MOST LIKELY IN A DIFFERENT COUNTRY), HE TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD OF PURCHASED A METRO PCS CALLING CARD PRIOR TO TAKING MY VACATION! THEIR SERVICE SUCKS! SOMETIMES I CANT EVER DIAL OUT WHILE IN MY OWN HOME! WE RECEIVE A RECORDING FROM VERIZON TO CONTACT OUR CARRIER! MAYBE VERIZON DOES "RULE THE AIR!!"

Almost no call range, dropped calls
I can receive NO CALLS AT ALL while inside my home using a Metro PCS phone and plan. I have unlimited everything, which is absurd because the phone only works OUTSIDE, and even then it drops at least once during a long call if not more. When I was out of state I had NO COVERAGE for eleven days. How this company manages to stay in business is quite simple: they prey on the needs of the low-income or poor credit customers who can't get a real phone without a deposit. It is horrifying.

service
We bought 3 phones on the family plan and they first overcharged us. I went to the kiosk to have that corrected where we purchased the phones, then none of the phones get service anywhere near where we live. I tried to register and they asked for my 8 digit password, I did not have one, I was never asked this when we bought the phones, nor was I asked the security question of what was the name of my first pet. Could not get any assistance and had to take a half day off work to drive to a corporate store where they said the guy that programmed the phone did it wrong and was not properly trained. WTF?! This guy re-programmed my phone and said I would need to bring in the other two, I said that is not at all convenient. To top it off, the only guy in the store that knows what he's doing, or seems to, is an arrogant piece of crap, who acts like it is so bothersome that I present these problems. I get home and my phone still does not get service. I have been calling customer service and get a different answer every time. Seems nobody is properly trained and this is nothing but a giant scam. Even when I was first trying to pay my bill, the guy at the kiosk says it's easier to pay online, then you don't have the $3 service charge. Well, I couldn't pay online because I didn't have the 8 digit password. So I have to go pay at the kiosk where he then tells me it's easier to pay in person - now what is easy about that?! Now I am going to try to get this cancelled altogether and get my money back for 3 useless phones. Hate these guys!!!

customer service
I have been with metro pcs for two years and this is the frist time I have had to call customer service. I bought a new phone less than a month ago and have been unable to send text messages. After spending an hour on the phone and going to a local store my problem is still not fixed! Now I'm being told I have to go to a corprate headquater and see if they can fix it! Did I mention that I have insurance and the phone is less than a month old! Two weeks and still nothing! Metro PCS SUCKS!!

REBATE SCAMS
I purchased 2 phones from Metro PCS authorized dealer on 2/28/11.
There was a Rebate Promotion for $50 Visa Metro Card (Presidents Day Promotions). When I was about to fill out the rebate form today, it states purchase must be between March 1-March 31. Last time I checked Presidents Day is in February. The real kicker is when you click on the Terms & Condtion button, it states must be purchased between 2/1/11-2/28/11.

That is only one of the issues, other issues include:
1. Salesperson only put the insuarnce on 1 phone when I specifically asked her to place it on both.
2. Received a text shortly after making purchase that changes have been made my new balance is $188. ($45+$45+$4+$4=$98)

Then when I called the store where I purchased, they said don't worry about it, should be okay. What does that mean?? Am I supposed to just take this persons word for it. And when you call the 800#, once you do finally get through they have no answers either. They said I should go to the corporate store. When I called Corporate, nobody answer the phone.

Keep in mind I only had the phone for less then 24 hours and all these problems already.

Please do yourself a favor and stay away from METRO PCS. It os truley not worth the aggrevation.

Remember, when it sounds too good to be true, most likelly it is!

Online Order
I ordered a phone from the Metro PCS website. I got an order number and was told they would email me when the phone had been shipped. Never got ANY email from them. Went back to website to track order. The site said they were "reviewing" my order and i would be notified when it was "approved". However, when i called to check my account balance on my debit card, they had already debited my account for the full amount. So, they took my money but have not sent the phone. Every time i have ever bought anything online, i was NEVER charged until the product shipped. So, i called metro pcs to see what the deal was. Once i FINALLY got ahold of an agent i was told they could not help me because they didnt deal with online orders. I said well give me someone who does. I was told i needed to go back to the website and write an email if i wanted help. Did that, and got NO response. So now, i am out of my money, have no phone and cannot get in contact with anyone that will/can help me. I plan on getting an attorney.

Bill Matrix Sux and Metro PCS WILL lose me as a customer
Nothing but problems the second month in a row trying to pay my Metro PCS bill using Express Pay by Bill Matrix. Customer Service Rep and her supervisor Alycia were obnoxious and condescending. System times out too quickly and locks you out. If you put it in once as a debit and your card needs to be processed as a credit you end up locked out for 24 hrs. because you attempted it too many times. Seems no matter what you do incorrect, such as miss inputting one field it comes back with a message to try again but counts as an attempt meaning that very, very soon you will be locked out for 24 hrs. unable to pay your bill unless you go in person to a Metro store and pay an additional $3 for the privilege. I am not slow and I am not old. Two months in a row they had me chasing down the information from the US to the Philippines as to why my card was not accepted and I was locked out. Finally this month talking to a customer service rep, then a supervisor from Bill Matrix proved an absolute waste of my time. Once again, headed down to a Metro PCS brick and morter to pay my bill because Bill Matrix has a crappy system! Metro PCS will lose me as a customer over this and I will post on Facebook to my 600 contacts all about my bad experience with Metro PCS and Bill Matrix. I don't really care who's fault it is. I want to talk to a live person when I need to (nearly impossible on both Metro PCS and Bill Matrix) and I want to pay my bill quickly without problems online and without any extra "convenience" fees. People don't use Bill Matrix and don't go Metro PCS unless they drop Bill Matrix and provide a way to pay your bill 1. without an additional convenience fee 2. without having to auto pay it 5 days before it's actually due. RIDICULOUS!

Dishonest company
I've been a Metro PCS customer for roughly a year now. Two days ago, my phone broke. I went to my local Metro PCS store and purchased a new phone. My first question to Michelle, the woman who helped me, was if I could return the phone. She told me I could, so I purchased a new one.

Now I carefully read the return policy on the receipt. I was very careful to follow all the instructions so I could still return the phone. Two days later, I brought the phone back to the store and was told that I couldn't return an upgrade phone.

I talked with Michelle and reminded her that she told me I could return it. She stated that she never said that to me. My return was denied and I'm out $120.00.
