Straight Talk Complaint - Customer Service - cell phone

cell phone - Complaint
Review by corona607 on 2011-06-28
They can barley speak English, then say they understand what your saying and they don't have a clue. If I hadn't already spent $200. on my phone I would change asap. No one there has a clue what's going on. I would go on and on but I have already spent 2 hours on the phone with customer service and still not close to having my problems resolved.

All these companies think they are saving money by going to another country for customer service where I'm sure my problems could of been taken care of within 5 minutes not over 2 hours.

Please learn from my stupidy before going with a cell company that does not have someone in the USA that you can speak with.

Well my husband did not want to go with another company that you had to sign a contract......WELL, it has been a complete nightmare since the very beginning with Straight Talk. NO ONE speaks english, they give you the run around, LIE - you bet they lie - After hours and hours on hold and over 26 personnel I have spoken with over a course of 2 months our problem has only increased. #1 my original phone ($179.99) worked for the 1st 35 days then started having issues. FINALLY after hours and hours they agree to take it back and replace it (you have a one year warranty but what they don't tell you) they sent me a refurbished phone...........my phone was NEW and they sent a refurbished phone!!! I returned it and was TOLD that once they receive it they would issue a check. Guess what NO CHECK, after more calls, etc. we were told that a check had not been issued and there was no record of this...what?!?!?!?! SO what they did was issue a credit on my husbands phone that will last until June 30th. We stopped the automatic withdrawal at that time. You won't believe this but they put a charge thru.yes, they did! Now after hours, once again, and being told we would be given a refund that would show up in our bank account within 24 hours. After 72 hours it's still not there. Today I spoke with 5 different people at Straight Talk, 4 told me the credit had been issued but could not send me an email stating that..........hummm.....so I called corporate office, once again no one spoke good english, this person said that there was a problem with the refund then after sitting on hold, again, she said she would send me an email confirming that a refund had been issued and that it was the "banks" fault that we are not showing a refund. NEVER EVER go with this company!!!
