Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: The facts are incorrectThe first replacement phone stayed at the post office until they returned to consumer cellular. The phone I returned was new as I just bought it the damages consumer cellular claimed were not there when I shipped itThe second phone sent to me I had my husband pick it up as I needed a workable phone, however, consumer cellular lack to tell that they were charging me in the next couple of days for a second phone. The second phone should have been a replacement and should not have been charged to my account without notifying me. Consumer Cellular automatically debit my account for $for a phone that I needed to set up. When I called them, they said to send the other phone back leaving me without a device since the first replacement was defective. They took advantage of me, they charged my account without my consent putiing a financial burden on me. I was not able to speak to any reasonable person. I explained many times that if I send the second phone back they will leave me without a working phone. To add insult to injury, they will not unlock the defective phone they forced on me so I could not sell it or have any family member use it with their service. my so contract with them was one phone, one line not two phone one line. I was forced to cancel the service as I wasn't getting anywhere with them. I am an honest, hard working senior citizen and I pay my bills on time. They should pay for all my inconveniences, refund the last payment I made, and not be allowed to do this to any senior citizen or any other person. And I am not the only one that they have done this toI posted on Facebook and these are a few responses. *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** * *** *** * *** *** *** *** *** *** *** * *** *** *** * *** *** ** *** *** *** * *** ** ** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** ** *** *** *** ** *** ** *** *** *** *** ** *** ** * *** * *** *** ** *** *** *** *** ** *** *** *** * *** *** *** *** *** ** *** * *** ** *** * *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** * *** ** *** *** ** *** *** *** * ***I am sure there many more that had bad experiences with themIn addition, they should change their Terms and ConditionsThe terms and conditions states: 'If you bought a Device from Consumer Cellular, it may have been programmed with a SIM lock" This statement is misleading it should state that all devices will be locked with a sim lock until you have been with them for monthsThis is an example of advertisement as you have to be with the company for months for your phone to be unlocked meaning is a months contract, They advertised there is no Contract. Their response is a classic example of bad customer service

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:
I did not receive either of those emailsIf I had I would have respondedThe statement that they went through Consumer Cellular's servers and therefore I must have received them is questionableThose emails were never sent to meA usage alert sen Novwould not have any impact on an October billI was not monitoring usage because I was recovering from a heart attack and surgery
Consumer Cellular is not the kind of business I wish to deal withExtra fees crop up all the time, and Customer Service lies about its actions when complaints are madeIt is clear this cannot be resolved, and customer goodwill is not important to Consumer CellularAll the ads in the world don't make up for poor customer service or angry former customers
I will pay this bill today, and begin the New Year with a new carrier.Sincerely,*** ***

Dear Revdex.com, We sent Ms*** a SIM card to switch to the ***serviceThe new SIM card will arrive in just a few daysI’ll have someone reach out to her today to give her further instruction. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to respond

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:
The telephone conversation transcription Consumer Cellular came up with is completely fabricated. I talked to a female employee on February 20, and she is the one who came up with the idea that the $monthly charge for January would be waived. There is no reason that Consumer Cellular would not have charged my credit card for $on March unless it was because its female employee had waived it. Someone at Consumer Cellular did not like the idea that the $charge had been waived, and that is why they sent me another statement showing a past due balance of $35.80. Sincerely,*** ***

Dear Revdex.com, Thank you for contacting us regarding this complaint and allowing the opportunity to respond. Consumer Cellular is a no contract serviceThe customer may cancel at any time without a penalty chargeWe do bill the customer after service is used, similar to how the electric
and water companies bill, but we do not have a contract. The amount that was left on the account which Ms*** was being charged was late fees from previous invoices that hadn’t been paid on timeSince the remaining portion of her invoices was paid I have removed the late fees and her account is at a zero balance

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:
tHAT WOULD BE INCORRECT FROM THEM I HAD ACCOUNTS WITH THEM WITH PHONES AND EVERY TIME I HAD A NEW PHONE BECAUSE THERE FREAKING PHONES DIDN'T WORK I CANCELLED THE ONE OUT COMPLETELYAlso as far as them being on drugs and speaking with one of there reps in ***These people in *** on separate calls were really hyip to Weed being legalized in ***, so I would completely say that sense they are coming to work on weed and obviously smoke it for recreation and not for a medical purpose is why they screwed up within there office's and the rep in *** supported meAlso upon one occasion, the phone did not work and this woman could not fix it from there office which is strange, so they had me freaking drive miles one way to there own sales manager at *** .*** ** She was not only rude about it, but refused to touch it for any kind of defect it might haveIn her words the work that she does is *** people into the sale of the contract and that is itShe also expressed that in her opinion this phone company besides trac is the worst two get sign up forSo then I drive to *** *** *** and the is in the phone center are about as A.D.Das you can getSo the store manager shows up and calls Consumer cellular to fix it on his timeWell he had his own opinion of 3rd party operations in *** and other department stores, he said they are a nuisance for anyone
They have inappropriate people working for them and on weeds , plus A.D.Dso I cancelled them out and each time that I canceled them out of phones and you can look at my visa to prove it for the purchases of phones, I should of quit after of them.
But yes all of the business's are on Stolen Indian properties, there is not one Euro with a receipt from them and they say praise the lordWell Jesus or any other Holy Lite being does not teach invasion and slaughter plus slavery and ownership with self written papersso now that there is a issue of world actions, it is there own karma coming back to them, universal law
The years of christ of to were in the middle east learning and teaching in India, tibet and Nepal etcHe has not trails of slaughter or slavery or teaching of it in anywaySo in these days upon the world, universal laws are in swing for these one's whom think there actions are free bird rightsIN A.D., A.Dand A.Dit is documented that the Catholics took out 50% of the original writingsChrist taught universal law not christianity, the catholics created that vibeUniversal law is from all spiritual nationsChristians made there own vibes and now it come back to themthey are so addicted to sin they are blind to there own actions coming back to them for karma., what a shame
Nothing is owed from me!
