      2 different associates Told me my phone was compatable with there network so I ordered there service. After getting sim cards in the mail and trying to activate them i called and was told that the phones are not compatible. And now they refuse to refund my money. They want me 2 buy different phones. Why would I buy different phones when I just bought these and your company employees told me they would work???? Refund my money now

      If I could give a 0 stars I would. Worst phone providers ever. From lies to promises to fraud. On November 18, 2024, I went to a boosmobile store. I purchased a new phone and ask for the activation to be with the $25 unlimited plan. On November 22nd, 2024, I registered my son's new line and noticed that I was charged for I service that I didn't ask for. I proceeded to call Boost Mobile about this situation, at first I couldn't do nothing because I was not given a code for this number and without it they couldn't help me. Eventually, I had to talk with the department of security to unlock this account. I was told that the information connected to my account was not my information, and that this person posted your credit card. They proceeded to change the information on file with my own information. I was told that because of this inconvenience that I was going to receive a refund for the $40 charged. She then charged me $13 for a new *** card. The representative told me before you cancel the line make sure to ask for the $40 refund and when you receive it then activate the *** card when arrives. The department that works with deactivating or canceling lines was not having it. They refuse to give me the refund and was making it impossible to deactivated the device. I hang up the call after 2 hrs, and called again. This time a refund was filled and a ticket number was giving to me. She told me that I was receiving the $40 around 3-5 business day. I received the new *** card, but did not opened the envelope to activate the card. Called on December 13, 2024 to see why I haven't received the refund back and was told to wait until Dec 18th, 2024,. On, December 23rd, I was charged for Iservice I did not activate or have a number for. I called boost mobile again regarding the $40, plus unauthorized charges without activation of new card. Now, they say that the refund ticket was never created and that I need to call the bank to dispute the unauthorized charges. Total $79usd

      They violated my consumer right and their legal compliance. I was told I was unable to downgrade my plan and was given false information on plenty of occasions by their uneducated team. I was falsely charged by their system and that is where it all started. The 4th representative provided a credit and promised a refund. After the 8th representative I was told I would not be getting a refund and unable to do anything about the price of my plan. So boost thinks they can force me into a high paying plan and overcharge me at their leisure. Boost can take some of those billions and invest in better training. I was then denied any escalation and told that there is no corporate number or address. What kind of business denies consumers the right to escalate?

      THEY DONT EVEN DERSERVE A STAR AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!This company is AWFUL!!! All they want to do is SCAM PEOPLE OUT OF MONEY!!! Ive had boost for many years which in the past had no issues. For the last 3-4 years have been doing nothing more than failing with customer service who refuses to solve problems and scam people out of the money owed back to them or the money they put in the account! This company needs to be shut down!

      I am concerned this company has harvested my social security number to verify my id, which is not what I signed up for on website for prepaid service, as well as after, they still did not help. They charged my bank a week before receiving sim. I am into tech, and the whole customer experience felt like a bait and switch. I received sim, and went to activate on website, which sent me verify id codes to email. I did that successfully, and the activate said successful. I click back on dashboard after to try to see what phone number is, still saying line needs to be activated. I chat thru website, which has no help even thou prompts imply its the right people to connect to. I am forced to call in, in which they refuse to help unless I provide my social security now. The customer service was terrible, as well as website chat "hung up" when I tried to ask how is someone supposed to use sim for prepaid service to call to activate? And how come they sell it online without informing customer this will be a requirement. ********************** got the money, told me I had to call and bank to reverse cause they cant refund, and to set up a brand new account and call in again. It moreless was because of there system? Yet I research the company its 4th largest of its type, which is technology. I dont know how I havent heard more about it, or the very recent data breach until after I research it because of giving them my ssn to verify and then they still not fixing problem. This prepaid service, which was already paid and this is very concerning!

      Placed an order for my daughters phone and was instantly approved. Received a phone call 2 days later asking me a ton of questions. Afterwards I was told everything was good and order would be sent. Next morning I received a email saying my order was not processed please send in again. Reached out to customer care and was told order was cancelled and they have no information on the reasoning why. I have a great credit score and income. Two days later received another email saying it would be shipped out next week. Today they are saying its cancelled but I still to have yet seen a refund. Also 2 weeks until Christmas. ***
