I for the last 2 months trying to disconnect 3 cell phones.  They have found out a way every month to mistakingly reconnect me every month!  AND charge me $25 to reconnect!!!  I PAID $200 to be disconnected  (why would I reconnect) yet each month I have to sit on hold (Right now as I type) and try to get a statement that states 0 balance.  JERKS!!

Also file a complaint with the BBB. That usually gets results fast!

I guess it doesn't really matter what company it is, No company can keep everyone happy, There are going to be issues sometimes. I've been with Sprint for 10+ years and I love the phone service as well as the customer service. Yeah, I've had to call  before to get something reversed or credited but they always take good care of me. I'm happy with them overall.

I had a major issue with Supra Telecom.  Called the Public Service Commission. Got a call from Supra the next day wanting to settle.

I am happy with them, but not there hokey billing. I have had to call customer service a few times on there billing. What you need to watch is your so called " Free mobile to mobile time" because they haven't lived up to that with me even though its in my plan. Angry

I have heard of stuff like this too.  I will be calling them when I look through my statement a little more. I want to get as much money taken off that I can.

I am not a picky person or hard to make happy with service BUT as a small business owner myself it really bothers me when a big business makes "misstakes" that ALWAYS favor them even if it is only a couple of dollars, multiply that by millions of people who might overlook it and poof millions in revenue!  If I am successful in my business it is going to be my way of "sticking it to the man" by showing big business what customer service is.  Sorry about the rant LOL (and the run on)

I agree! I don't have a bussiness, but you make a valid point.

Ok, I called Sprint tonight and spoke to someone in billing and was on the phone for 20 mins and knocked off $110 off of my bill   Smiley I will stay with them, but I will really be checking into their monthly statements better for hidden charges. This was a lesson learned!

Its a pity you have to work to fix their problem!  I am sure most all companies do it (screwing up your bill) at least you area step ahead of Sprint right now.  Good luck on the next bill I know I am going to need it AND I don't even have sprint anymore. LOL
