      Dear **********:

      On October 19, 2022, we received your complaint, dated October 13,2022, filed with the Better Business Bureau.

      You said that you purchased a phone from a retail store on October 7, 2022, but you did not like its performance; therefore, on October 10, 2022, you returned to the store for a refund, but your request was denied although it was well within the seven-day return window.

      When we spoke on November 8, 2022, you said that the issue was resolved with the exception that you were not put on the plan you were supposed to be on and it cost you an additional $20.00. I offered to apply a one-time credit of $20.00 to your account, which you accepted. You said you now consider the issue resolved.

      If there are further questions or concerns about this issue,please feel free to contact me at **************.

      Sincerely,

      On July 28 of 2022, I order a ******* A03s for *****. Tracking # is 1Z52A2590304203209 The phone never was received. Upon checking the tracking number I found out the last it was being returned to the warehouse on August the 11th. I have gone to their chat place to talk to the customer representative and they confirmed it was in the warehouse and that I should wait 8 to 10 day's for a refund nothing happened. I contacted them again through chat . Again I was told to wait. After the third time I was told to speak to a live person the phone so I did. They in turn gave me this case # for a refund ********* on Sept 1 around 3 p.m. Nothing has happened. They say wait on computer to confirm warehouse received the phone. I give them the tracking number again, they look it up confirmed it there tell me to wait 8 to 10 day's. I call again complain, making sure they know I'm not happy asking what's going on and on Oct 3rd They give me a new case # *********. I still have no email's, no phone, no refund from this company. I keep being told to wait. I have been trying to get a refund for 2 months answering their questions. I'm told the phone is in the warehouse when they look it up, but then they tell me the computer says it's not. I keep telling them I never received the phone and that is the only tracking # I have for it. Why is it being so hard to get a refund for something I never received???

      The Merchant that I have a dispute with is Republic Wireless.The original transaction date is October 11, 2021.There are two (2) original transaction amounts of $236.42 for a total of $472.84 for one year of prepaid wireless service for two separate phone lines.In March 2021, television provider Dish Network agreed to acquire Republic Wireless for an undisclosed price. Originally Wi-Fi networks were used as the primary data and connectivity source to the network, while the cellular network was used as a failover if no Wi-Fi networks were in range of the device. The model relied on a proprietary VoIP application for the Android operating system that has the ability to switch quickly between Sprint's CDMA mobile network or ********** GSM mobile network, free roaming, and WiFi, depending on which access network is available.In 2022, The Wi-Fi first calling method stopped being supported for new customers or phones purchased on the "bring your own phone" program, or for phones purchased from Republic Wireless. Since I had brought my own phone to Republic Wireless, the service I purchased was no longer available.Sometime in 2022, because I was unable to reliably make or receive calls the service became unreliable and worthless to me.July 31, 2022, I called Republic Wireless to cancel. I talked to ****. He opened one refund ticket for each phone line, for a total of two (2) refund tickets.************ Refund Ticket # ****** ************ Refund Ticket # ****** Refund Calculation as follows:Original Purchase date Oct. 11, 2021.Cancelled on July 31, 2022, which left a total of 71 days of prepaid service still left on the account.$236.42 / 365 Days = $.647 per day X 71 days remaining in contract = $45.98 per line, totaling $91.97 Refund ow

      Dear **************:

      On June 20, 2022, we received your complaint, dated June 20, 2022,filed with the Better Business Bureau.

      You said that you spoke to an agent to request an extension on your payment date. During your conversation, they offered to apply a credit of $20.00 to your account; however, this was not done.

      I attempted to contact you at the phone number and email address we have on file. You responded to the email and requested a call at that time;however, it was received after my business hours and I returned your call the next day and left a message.

      The text message chain you included with your complaint does reference an offer of a $20.00 credit; however, it does not have a date stamp. Without this, I cannot associate it with a specific notation on your account. In addition, since the date of activation of your account (April 21, 2022), you have received a large number of credits, including one for $20.00. The number of credits applied to your account are well beyond what is normal for an account with your tenure. Therefore, no additional credit will be provided.

      If there are further questions or concerns about this issue,please feel free to contact me at **************.

      You said you ordered a SIM card from Boost Mobile, but then you decided not to activate the service. Although, you stated that your credit card was still charged for service on October 11, 2022.

      Hello, I am writing to express my frustration of trying to get my service working correctly. I purchased a 1 year plan promo . I was the wrong sim card to start and then sent a new sim card which got the phone partially working but it appears to only work on wifi. I called and was hung up on and told to wait 24hrs and still no service. Now the phone says no service and wont even work with wifi. I contacted online support via ******* and spent 2 hours with them and they ended by saying they could not resolve my issue and I needed to call the 800 number again. They refused to provide a refund and cant provide the service. I would appreciate any assistance getting this issue resolved.

      Complaint: 18199832

      I am rejecting this response because: I no longer have the phone number they called as Boost Mobile removed it from me. The fact that they are claiming to try to reach me on a number I no longer have when they have my records and can clearly see the new number their business issued me leads me to believe that they are continuing to play games. Further, I received an email from someone with a similar claim, however, their email said they were from Dish Network - I replied to the email and asked why someone from Dish Network was contacting me, this Kellen person never responded or corrected the email. What you are seeing here is not what matches what I received on Friday Nov. 4, 2022 1:01pm 

       

      Good afternoon, 


      I attempted to contact you regarding the BBB complaint you filed by calling **************. Unfortunately I was unable to reach you today.  Please reach out by email or phone at your earliest convenience so we can discuss your complaint.


      Thank you,

      Why is someone from DISH network reaching out? I'm forwarding this to the BBB as I believe this email to be a scam. 

       

      There has been no further contact. They are misleading you in their attempts to contact me.

      There has been no contact from Boost Mobile since the email that I received on Friday Nov. 4, 2022 at 1:01pm from ***************************;<**********************************>. They are lying to you. At this time, I desire to close my account and want a refund. This has been a truly horrible experience and I am disgusted with how they and interact with customers. Shame on them. 

       

      I provided a phone number in my previous response and have yet to receive a phone call from anyone at Boost *************)

      Complaint: 18198857

      I am rejecting this response because: I have been waiting for 38 days days to get my number activated. Do i need to wait for an year to get my number back??? I don't know why my number is ported to T mobile when I ported it to boost mobile. No one knows when I will get my number back. I absolutely discourage people from porting to boost mobile. You might loose your money as well as your phone number. 

      Sincerely,

      *********************************** where my number is right now. I have been waiting for resolution from past 10 days. All the reps are useless No one is willing to help. I spent more than 30 hours in these 10 days talking to customer representatives. This is really causing me mental trauma. Even filed a complaint through FCC.Attaching the email i recieved from mint mobile confirming the number has been ported out.
