  In June 2005 I decided to change my cell provider from T-Mobile to Verizon. This decision was primarily due to the face that coverage by T-Mobile was poor or non-existent in some areas where I needed service.
I checked to verify my contract period had expired, and then paid in full. Next I setup new service with Verizon who said that they would take care of notifying T-Mobile of the change in service provider.

The switch was made, and then about 4 days later I decided to call T-Mobile myself just to make darn sure that the account was closed properly. I was assured that yes the account was cancelled and it was paid in full.

The T-Mobile account had been setup for automatic monthly billing to my American express card. Anyway time went on and in March 2006 I noticed that there was an extra T-Mobile charge on my American Express card. I did still have one account with T-Mobile for my wife's cell phone so when I had been glancing at the American Express bill in the past I just assumed the charges were for her account.

Not so! T-Mobile had continued to charge my American express card each month for 9 months. Yes I felt very stupid for not catching this much sooner, but figured I could simply call T-Mobile and have them check their records and reimburse my money.

When I first contacted them the representative seemed very helpful and yes she did see in the record where I had called to cancel the account on June 28, 2005. But somehow the representative back then failed to properly close the account. She also checked for any usage on this account and could not find any calls made after I had called to close the account. She said she had to check with her supervisor before any refund could be authorized. When she returned she said that T-Mobile's "policy" would only allow a refund up to 90 days! I reminded her that it was T-Mobile's error and that she said herself that the record showed that I had called to cancel the account. I also reminded her that it was T-Mobile that had been automatically charging my American Express card, and that I hadn't been actively involved in paying each month. She said she knew all that but the maximum of "...a maximum of 90 days was T-Mobile's policy".

After that I called many times, and sent many emails to T-Mobile and every time hit the brick wall stating "...T-Mobile's policy". I then decided to contact American Express to ask that these unauthorized charges be removed. The people at American Express were extremely helpful and courteous, however after contacting T-Mobile they were told by T-Mobile the records only go back 90 days. Apparently T-Mobile lied to them because in the many conversations I had with T-Mobile representatives they were all able to go back and see that I had called to close the account on June 28, 2005.

I just cannot believe that they can admit that the T-Mobile representative made the mistake in not properly closing the account, per my instructions, and then state that they will only reimburse 3 out of the 9 months of charges to my American Express card. Isn't taking money without authorization (I instructed them too close my account) illegal, and otherwise known as "theft"? When I mentioned small claims court, one representative said I can't do that because the T-Mobile contract does not allow it. I then told her that as of June 28, 2005, when I directed that my account be closed, I no longer had a contract or agreement with T-Mobile.

  I strongly beg everyone not to get T-Mobile and not only from my bad experiences but from other friends who has T-Mobile. It has the worst coverage compared to any other carrier. I couldn't even call out from my own kitchen. I constantly would get a call failed. I couldn't received calls either and then I would get a voicemail alerting me that I had a call. I also hate the fact that one has to ask for the mobile to mobile service if not you will be charged. They were charging me mobile to mobile usage charges for calls to my daughter using T-Mobile as well, b/c I didn't request the mobile to mobile service. I can't believe it! I learned with other carriers it is already in the plans. All the time I thought it was the phones, it's not the phones, trust me, it's T-Mobile service. It sucks and customer care are not helpful at all. I cancelled my contract. I rather pay the $200.00 term fee rather than to be miserable calling them every second and missing my calls b/c of the poor coverage.

  I am a crossover to T-Mobile from Sprint. T-mobile is great! The coverage is iffy here and there, but so are the other carriers'. The customer service is wonderful. They are helpful and sweet. Best of all, NO surprises on my bill. It's what I expect it to be each month. You really do "Get More" at T-Mobile.

  In the begining i loved t mobile they had so much to offer but now i realized that i have wasted alot of money on not so good service.The service is not good the customer service or shall we say 611 its not very helpfull at all most of the time they have you on hold for so long that you just get tired and hang up the call.To top it off they have now put a machine that picks up the customer service line and i dont think that she is helpfull at all and when i go to pay my bill at a naer t mobile store i have to put my money in a machine.I have been a t mobile costumer for three years never late on a payment and the cut my service off once for having a 10 doller balance that was only over due for one day.Sighning up for t mobile was a big mastake i mean come on i have a cammra phone that i paid 304$ for and i cant even recieve or send pictures or vidieos that really sucks. Honestly i dont not recomend t mobile to anybody there service sucks and you want to get what you pay for and with them you dont.
