We understand *** *** frustration; however, a large majority of the comments provided to the Revdex.com by *** *** do not fall in line with the information documented on her GreatCall accountGreatCall can only speak to the documented history shown on *** ***’s GreatCall accountBecause of this, we cannot justify or merit the billing credits being requested

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID *** and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
Regards,*** ***
I am sick and tired of Greatcall's lies You notice they say (and I do not see a signature of who sent this email) that "IF" the returned cell phone is "deemed" to be in "like new" condition, Greatcall will still only refund me the $I do not trust them at allThey keep contradicting themselves about the factsIf they will not refund the balance of $which is rightfully owed to me, and which is a drop in the bucket for their company, but would pay for my food for a month, there is no way I would believe that they would check the cell phone, see that it is really new and never been used, and tell the truthIn my opinion, they are an unscrupulous and deceitful company, taking advantage of seniorsThis whole horrific situation has been going on since June 10, 2015, but if they want to keep it going, fine If they think they will win by insulting my intelligence and demeaning my integrity, "Bring it on"

To Whom It May Concern:
On behalf of GreatCall, Inc(“GreatCall”), creator of the Jitterbug and 5Star Urgent Response, this letter is submitted in response to the above-referenced complaint*** *** *** is has
expressed her dissatisfaction with her Jitterbug Smart phone and our customer service
We appreciate the opportunity to respond to *** *** complaint and have completed an audit of her GreatCall account
Our records indicate that *** *** service was established on 8/5/with the direct purchase of a Jitterbug Smart phoneThe initial order, totaling $199.58, was processed using a *** card ending *** and consisted of the GreatCall Jitterbug Smart phone for $149.99, a one-time service activation fee of $35.00, a non-refundable ground shipping charge of $10.00, a free case, a free car charger and $for applicable taxes
On 8/14/*** *** called our customer service and we have reviewed the audio recording of the call*** *** stated she set a swipe to unlock on the phone and could not remember what she choseOur representative asked if she had set up a google account, she said yes, but didn’t know for sure, she gave the password that we have on her account and our agent explained the difference between our password and what she may have set up with GoogleWe explained that we can reset the phone but it is important to know if she set up a Google account
We advised that if we reset her phone and she did set up a google account there would be a prompt to enter the Google information and if she could not, the phone would be stuck on that screen*** *** stated that she did not think she set it upWe further explained that if we reset the phone and she cannot enter her Google information she will have to purchase a new phoneOur representative asked if she may have wrote down any information about a google account and *** *** again said no, she did not think she set up a Google account
Our agent reiterated that if she did and we reset the phone, she will be stuck on that screen, she will not be able to move from that screen and she will need to purchase a replacementOnce again *** *** stated that she did not set up a Google accountWe proceeded with a reset of the phone and during the process the phone stated she needed to enter her Google account information that was previously synced with this phoneWe explained that she did indeed set up a Google account needs to have the information she used in order to proceed
*** *** entered her name and the information that she thought she may have used to no availOur agent made many suggestions to her as to what she might have used and still *** *** was not able to recallOnce again we explained that the only way to get into this phone would be to enter the Google account information, that she should contact Google for her information and if she cannot, she would have to purchase a new phone*** *** stated that she did not want to purchase a replacement and asked about the day trial or warranty
We explained that the issue is not a defect in the phone but that she created a Google account and doesn’t know her login or password and as advised prior to the phone reset this information would be requiredOur agent suggested that she check her records to see if she could find where she might have written the information down and attempt to get beyond this screen, *** *** understood
On 8/14/*** *** called our customer service and we have reviewed the audio recording of the call*** *** informed our representative that her phone wasn’t working due to a password she could not remember and she was not going to pay for a replacementThe agent processed an order for a free, pre-activated replacement and it is scheduled to deliver to her on 8/18/Additionally, during this conversation *** *** stated that she has filed a dispute with her credit card company
As a reminder, the security settings on the Jitterbug Smart phone, manufacture by Alcatel, require that any Gmail account logged in and synced at the time of a factory reset be verifiedIf a customer is unable to verify the Gmail log in information, they should take the steps to recover they’re log in and/or password information by visiting the Gmail log in page or calling Google directly
Because GreatCall has replaced the phone free of charge, the initial purchase price of the phone, $199.58, is a valid chargeIf a chargeback is filed with the credit card company, GreatCall will take the appropriate steps to seek recollection for the phone payment
