2 starsSpectrum Mobile retail staff in ****************** store in fron of ****** were very disrespectful and rude. I was told by them when I asked for help that they were retail only and did not have to help me retrieve my prior phone's data. THeir very odd person waiting on me kept talking to herself and had trouble with everything. I asked her to stop doing that as I could not tell if she was speaking to me. The other retail girl came to her aid and called my rude and that i should not speak like that. I left with a working phone but with no data. They tole me to go to GMAIL to back it up but would not give me directions as to how to do it. I AM SWITCHING TO T-MOBILE. I don't deserve their attitudes.Review fromShannon G

1 starThis company has lied to me AGAIN. I bought my mom a cellphone through Spectrum and and was told that I would be billed through autopay $5.00 per month. Everything went fine until today when my autopay was charged from $5.00 to $35.00 I called and was told "The $5.00 charge was for a promotion." I tried reasoning with them but it fell on deaf ears. NEVER trust this company because all they do is run one scam after another. Every 3 months my mother receives a $40.00 charge for "Streaming" yet she has Roku and doesn't even know what "Streaming" is. I call Spectrum, explain that she doesn't nor has she ever streamed anything. They apologize, remove the bogus charge yet within 2-3 months they do it again. I believe they prey on the elderly hoping that they won't notice and pay anyway.Review fromTimur Nomad S

1 starSpectrum Mobile charged me for mobile phone service that was never activated. I signed up, but they never assigned me a phone number, and I was never able to use the service, not even for one day.For over two months, I tried contacting their support. I eventually gave up and agreed to pay only $5/month for internet standby mode. Despite that, they added me to the billing system and are trying to collect over $160 for mobile service that I never received.Their support is practically nonexistent. They removed all email addresses, and phone support is unhelpful. After posting a public review, they responded with generic links to ******** and *******, asking me to message them but those links do not work and lead nowhere.This behavior feels fraudulent and disrespectful. *** already filed a complaint with the *** and will consider further legal steps if necessary. Companies like this should not be allowed to operate without real accountability.Review fromShirley S

1 starWhere to start. So I got the Internet and a phone plan thru spectrum. Then I added my son to my plan for unlimited 30 a month for his line cool! Everything was fine til a couple months ago. Never missed a payment never paid late. I get online to see when the bill was due and I had a bill from ***** a month for both phones to ******. I have every receipt for every month. Called and spoke to them and they couldn't figure it out at first then they said back in January that I disputed a payment which showed I paid the bill but then my bank cancelled payment and took it. what? First of all I never disputed any of it and second I pay with cash app card so what bank? Never showed one time online when I paid my bill that there was a disputed charge from back in january. I have the receipts I never got any money put back into my account but had to pay it or lose my service. It don't matter what proof you have he said because I disputed it which I ******** I had to pay it and still do not know where the monthly payments went too plus the ***** charge and this went on from January. I am so ****** right now at them it's ridiculous. Now the same thing is happening with my internet! Do not use Spectrum. That money never came back to my account like they said and how can a bank or anyone take back a payment after you were given a receipt showing it was paid grrrrReview fromSharon V

1 starSpectrum technical support is practically non-existent and it provides no way of changing the number of rings for incoming calls on phones without this setting available. ******* tech support said it was Spectrum that controlled the number of rings. In the past I was able to get Spectrum tech support to fix this but after half a year it defaults back to a few rings before going to voicemail. Basically my phone is practically not functional for incoming calls and Spectrum is no longer willing to fix this.Review fromBenjamin G

1 starSpectrum mobile is the worst phone company out there, do not get this service. If you want dropped calls, no service, sketchy customer service, and an overall poor service experience, then choose Spectrum. In my personal experience, they dropped the number that I transferred to the service, the manager made it seem like it was my fault that it happened, made me pay to reconnect my line, and got an attitude when I needed my number back on immediately. I transferred my business line, a line that could not be off, and it is taking more than a half a day to get it back on. Nothing in return for the loss of business, just "wait for processing". I'm going back to T-Mobile even though they now cost 40% more, you really get what you pay for.Review fromCheryl Y

1 starBuyer BEWARE! Spectrum Sales *** advised me to add cell phone line plus another line for iPad to my account which already had an existing line for my spouse , in order to then qualify for cell phone balance buyout with uploaded paid receipt. I followed all instructions exactly as presented only to have Spectrum add a requirement for yet another (4th) line of service to qualify when I called to follow up for the third time for their promised Buyout Form!! I spent nearly $1000 out of pocket to payoff my phone with another major carrier and Spectrum scandalously let me down. DONT TRUST THEM! They refused to listen to playbacks of recorded conversations I had with their sales *** along with a second ******** that wouldve proven my claims hand down. I spent considerable time with their Sales *** who understood exactly what the plan was . He misled (or was misinformed himself) and his employer couldnt care less . NO compromise of any sort was offered when they were clearly in the wrong. Truly shameful!!Review fromMark A

1 starNEVER - THEY SELL YOUR NUMBER TO MARKETING COMPANIES - 20 SPAM CALLS PER DAY.Just don't buy their service, even if they TRAP you by giving FREE for a year. THEY SELL YOUR NUMBER TO MARKETING COMPANIES. You will get minimum ***** SPAM calls per day, majority from your AREA CODE.I filed a complaint, they gave me a website, saying "Go to this website and block all numbers one by one. How senseless, who has time to go to a website ***** times a day after every call / spam call and block SPAM numbers. **** CALL companies uses thousands of different numbers every day, everyone knows that.Unless they don't provide a FREE SPAM SPAM CALL BLOCKER, like other competitors, DON'T BUY their service.
