bad service, bad customer support
I'm still flared up hours after cancelling my services with this company - they make you pay full cost for a phone, but in the long run it pays for itself is the claim. Unfortunately the product they sell in the form of their phone service isn't anywhere near par with regular larger companies. I bought the phone and used it Atlanta, GA with the hopes of being able to use it while on assignment in Washington DC and now later, here in Pittsburgh PA. The phone though listed as a both cities on the website as an available to their plan didn't work at all in DC, and only was able to use my text and basic phone services in Pittsburgh. Now the operator tells me that would have been additional charges under a 'roaming' fee (something not mentioned when I asked the salespeople initially).
In addition - the insurance I bought monthly for the phone should it be stolen wasn't much of insurance - the phone was stolen at a restaurant and my 'deductible' was an additional 80.00US dollars. After this debacle, and trying to talk with poor English speakers on the phone on a bad connection - it's never again will they have my business. Anyone I know now considering it will get an earful from me as well including my patients. I may even put a small plaque out in the waiting room advising them to think twice before using this poorly put together 'service'

cover are refund
I went to metro pcs dealership to purchase a telephone line and I transfer my service from AT&T to the new company. They promises cover are with a map, but the area that they promises was not cover. But the issues is the costumer have to purchase the telephone, I buy a telephone for the amount of $386, because I need this telephone in order to have internet, text message, email. But because is not cover in my area I lost the money of the telephone they sale to me so I am stuck with a item that no order telephone company use, and also no service so I lose $386. X 2 because I purchase two telephone.

bill in text
Metro pcs sends your bill in a text for free, but what they don't tell you is that we may change the amount at any time. I received 4 text from metro pcs stating 2 different amounts and 2 different due dates, so I paid the last amount text to me. So why was my svc turned off for non payment. When I called customer svc I was told I needed to make an additional payment to have my svc restored and that they don't know why I received 2 different bill and due dates, just pay the money and move on. Do these csr's not know about the economy.

Rude Behavior@ Store Location (DeSoto, Tx)
Metro PCS is fast becoming a rude and non caring company that has had me fooled for quite a while. I am a very unsatisfied customer right now. I have called customer service on several occassions about my rude service at their Desoto location (Polk and Pleasant Run). The Pakistani gentleman who owns this company and another in Lancaster that I know of, has no regard for mannerism. It seems the only care is in getting money to support his company; this is a difficult task without proper patriotism, and the customers are the ones who keep the doors open. This store is fairly new, and it won't be here long with customer service like that.

Not informing customers of the change number policy for refunds?
I decided to change phone companies and wanted to take my existing cell phone number with me. When I called Metro Pcs regarding this situation they (customer service employee) felled to inform me that if I cancelled me service after 2 weeks into my cycle I would not be able to get a refund. So, basically I just gave this company after talking to too many people over the pass couple of weeks almost $45 dollars. That money could have went on my 11 year old daughter's first cellphone this she will use while away from home. Man, this company needs alot of customer service classes. They also refused to give me any of my refund or at least put half of it on my daughter's account. Yes, if you are thinking that she needs to contact the main office? I plan to write to them regarding this problem, because like all other American's I work hard for my money and don't have any to give away when I have 4 kids to feed every day.

Horrible Company
Metro PCS is the worst company I have ever dealt with. They rip people off and no one does anything about it. An attorney really needs to file a class action lawsuit against this company. I have had Metro PCS service for over a year now. I switched from Sprint as I was paying around $150 per month for unlimited cell/internet and it was too costly. First, the service through Metro PSC is horrible. My calls are dropped all time when I try to use my phone. There are times when it will go into roaming and it should not be roaming as I am in my coverage area in Florida. When it goes into roaming, I cannot use my phone; eventhough I have paid twice now for "roaming minutes" (which I should not have to use in my coverage area) Even if I wanted to use my "roaming minutes" in my own coverage area, I cannot acces them.
The 1st time I paid for roaming was when I travelled out of my coverage area. I did everything the sales person at the store told me to prepare the phone before i left my coverage area. I was out in the middle of Kansas and my ohone would not woork. I had an emergency situation and needed to use a phone (no pay phones were available anywhere, and I was not able to use it. Customer service was non-existent as one keeps getting the same automated message that goes into a loop. It is nearly impossible to talk to a live person at Metro PCS. Next I went to Nebraska. My roaming minutes wouldn't work there either. I finally got through to their tech support. They farm their tech support out to Panama and I spent 1/2 hour arguming with the tech person that Nebraska was part of the US; as he kept insisting it wasn't and that's why I did nto have coverage. Unbelievable! I have lost money by purchasing "roaming minutes" I could not use, on a cell service that does not work much of the time, and nearly froze to death on a Kansas roadway when I had car troubles and I could not use my cell phone to call for help.
I wonder how much money this company makes by not being accessible by phone to the public; especially when customers try to reach them to disconnect service and they cannot get through to anyone??? This company is blantantly ripping off customers. Are there any attorneys out there who are even remotely interested in filing suit against this company that is ripping off so many people???

LAS VEGAS METRO PCS DEALER
June 29, 2009
Customer Complaint
I have been reviewing many Metro PCS customer complaints and its dificult for me to agree with every complaint because many of the complaints are irrational. A few, only a few complaints are acceptable.
I am the only representative/owner here at my location and many customers like my quality of service in comparission to other locations they have visited even the corporate centers here in Las Vegas.
There was one complaint how the customer was set up with a rate plan that they did not select. The customer selected the $40 plan and was subsequently set up with a $45 plan. According to the customer that was a mistake. But the error was with the customer because we are all adults here and it is no one's fault that you didn't view the billing summary before you left the store nor did you site the error within the first 30 days of free service that was provided to you for you yourself to catch the error.
Their are two people to blame. One is the sales representative who did not establish service that customer initially requested. Yet the responsibility lies upon the customer as well. I mean humans make mistakes but this is what receipts and other documents are for to inform customer.
Another complaint was this a customer who is stating that it is impossible to pay your bill online and you can only pay in the store. What is this? here is the link for all to see http://www.metropcs.com/customer_support/pay_your_bill.aspx
You can also set your credit card up with auto debit on your billing cycle if you wish
Simply enter in your telephone number and enter your credit card information. THERE IS NO SERVICE FEE!!!
You can save one dollar by calling 611 from your Metro PCS handset and paying your bill through an automated payment system which charges a $2 servicing fee.
There are options.
When customers are having any complaints many times I am discovering that their are many indirect service complaints that are not directly connected to Metro PCS Corp. I am not defending corp. just letting customers know that many of their issues can be resolved through management at the location of complaint.
For the customer who stated that they cannot reach a corporate location via telephone, most corporate location business numbers are accompanied with an extention number as well. You can just simply drive down there. You act like the corporate store in in China somewhere. OMG!!! Are adults really that stupid.
For those who are having customer service problems, here is some advice. I like to handle the problem for the customer because most times customers are so emotionally charged up they are incapable of seeing things in a rational matter so I deal directly with the problem myself. They interpret that people do not want to help them yet that is not always the case. If a customer service represtative hung up on you, you need to do the responsible thing by getting their DEaler I.D. number and name when they pick up the call. So if the customer rep. was rude the call was recorded and it can be traced.
As a customer you can't just get on here and complain you have to do your home work as well. You cant just walk trough life aimlessly. The only mad customers who walk in my store are those who did not start up service at my location because I am discovering that many of them were not properly educated about our services.

Unauthorized charges
I had signed up for the $40 plan, but the salesperson entered me in for the $45 plan. Of course it says $45 on the contract, but I didn't review it since I had trust in the rep doing the right thing (incidentally all you get is the bottom line with the taxes and all so you couldn't tell from the bill what plan you're in).
I went back to the branch seeking a 3 month credit for the the rep's mistake, but they couldn't accommodate me there, telling me to call customer service. With customer disservice it's like hitting a brick wall. I wanted to continue but I also wanted to correct their mistake. So I figured since I overpaid by $15, I would drop down into their $35 plan for at least 3 months to make up for the difference (I already did this for 3 months and I plan on doing this for at least another 3 months to teach Metro a lesson - the services at the $35 level is adequate for my needs.)
I will continue to see how it goes with Metro. They're getting heated competition from Cricket and magicJack and I may jump.

customer service
when I first purchased my phone the store charged me twice on my debit card. I had to go through my bank to get my money back as the store would not reimburse me they stated that they were not over according to their books... nevermind that I brought in all the bank statements and records to prove they charged me twice. they tried to say maybe I purchased two phones! Today is the 2nd time I my service was disconnected because of non payment. I pay the same every month online and the payment was cashed and in time before it was due on the 25th of the month. I just do not have the energy to go through all the craziness to prove my payment was sent this month. I am just cancelling and going to another more reliable provider. Trying to get throuh to talk to someone is a joke, they do not answer the phone. You have to talk to the computer and all that does it get you no where real fast. This company is the absolute worse service I have ever had! I would NEVER recommend anyone using this cell phone service it is run by a bunch of monkeys for sure!
