Consumer Cellular

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:On or around 9/5/I had called Consumer Cellular because I wanted to terminate my account with them, at that time I was asked if the last billing I received was for the previous month or for SeptemberI specifically told the agent I was planning to terminate my serviceShe responded that "the money debited from my account was non-refundable" I said "I may as well keep the service active then"She agreed.This is why I made sure I called on the 29th September, because I did not want to continue with their service.When I signed up I picked a plan and paid for it, since then I've paid for the service I wantedOn occasion I supposedly went over and that charge was added to the current bill Sincerely,*** ***

Revdex.comThank you for inquiring on my behalf concerning the problem I had withConsumer Cellular.I feel Consumer Cellular did not stand by their quote to me,that I would receive my refund back in full for a check $108.11.This is what I was told over and over againBut, Consumer Cellular did something differently which I was not informed
aboutI was not told about the policy that they have when refunding your money.I feel they were dishonest with me.I will never do business with Consumer Cellularagain.I pray that no other person will have to go through this emotional stress that I had to experience.Yes, they paid me but not the way they quoted that I would get my refund They put my refund on my account and distributed that way.I only received a check back for $which I had to ask them to send to me because they had put that as a credit balance on my account.Then Consumer Cellular said they will send me another check for$0.72.B B B, thank you again not just for me, but for all the other consumers you are trying to help and you are helping.God bless your company always,*** ***

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because: I live by myself and was not in the country when the phone was delivered, I have provided solid proof to support the above. I have no knowledge what happened to the phone, who got it and what calls were made on it since I have not received it. I do not believe I should be paying for a product I have never received, that is the whole point of this dispute. You should go back to USPS to figure out what happened to your delivery.
I called Consumer Cellular on December 30, 2015, spoke with a supervisor who said would look into this issue. I think her name is Sherlyn, perhaps. She left me a few messages asking me to call her back, but she did not give me her extension, just a general customer service number to call. I called back a couple of times and were told I could not be connected to her because they cannot track down a specific associate. I tried to explain the situation to whoever I spoke with, I always received a generic answer asking me to pay. People do have jobs and are not available to pick up the phone whenever you decide to call, so it is incorrect to say I did not answer.
If you cannot proof you have properly deliver the phone and I have proof I was not around to receive it, I should not be charged the cost of the phone.Sincerely,*** *** ***

December 23, 2015 Revdex.com *** *** *** *** *** Dear Revdex.com, The account was cancelled and we did receive a check for the final amount of the last amount owed on 9/28/That invoice was due on 9/12/so by the time we received the payment a late
fee of $had accrued and when that was not paid a second late fee accrued. We received an email on 11/13/however there wasn’t enough information matching on the email compared to the account for us to release any information or take any actionWe did respond to the email and requested that either the information be provided or that they customer call us but we didn’t receive any further communication. Since the customer did pay for the service portion of their invoicing, I have waived both late fees and the account is at a zero balance. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to respond.

Dear Revdex.com, On 9/22/a SIM card for a new line of service was ordered through our public siteThe SIM card was sent to the customer active with a new phone number and was active until the customer called in to cancel it on 12/5/The customer did not need to do
anything, nor did we, to activate it as our service is sent active unless the phone number is transferring from another provider. Per our end user agreement the customer is responsible for the cost of the service that was provided, whether or not she chose to use itI do see that there was zero usage so as a courtesy I have credited the additional line charge for the three invoices that have generated where the charge appearedThe customer has a credit of $on their account. Thank you for contacting us regarding this complaint and allowing the opportunity to respond.

March 30, 2016 Revdex.com *** *** *** *** Dear Revdex.com, Thank you for contacting us regarding this complaint and allowing the opportunity to respondMr*** began service with us on 2/25/and cancelled on 3/30/When he began service with us he was on a fairly low data planDue to the usage, he exceeded the planOverages are billed at $per MB and this can add up fastThis is why we urged the customer to increase his plan to cover the usage as that is so much cheaper than paying the overagesMr*** still exceeded even our highest plan availableThere was usage on all lines of service and the invoice of $is valid. Our risk free guarantee states that if a customer cancels within days and no more than units of usage, we will waive any invoices that have been generatedMr*** far exceeded that with talk minutes and 4,483.83MB of data usage. I listened to the call between Mr*** and the agent who signed him upAt bout the minute mark into the call she did mention the risk free guarantee and the requirement to be within units of usage. We received Mr***’ equipment back and applied the credit for the equipment towards the invoice. This has left a credit of $on the account which will be refunded to the customer.
