Verified ReviewerOvercharge, spend nearly hundreds of hours to call and customer service cant get it right.

I was your customer for many years, i have 10 lines with Sprint, this happened once already back in 2016, every month i had to call customer service and spend 6 to 7 hours on the phone, getting transfered put on hold and no one pick up, to the point i was calling every week trying to help Sprint to take off over charge on my account, my bill was mid $500 per month, as i pay off the equipment payment of my 10 lines, my bill did not go down instead when up? In 2020 from March, couple equipment came off, and i work out of town so i told my wife to pay every month like plan, your system overcharged every month, to the point ypur customer service was telling my wife its not full payment, because due to 1 month over charge the next month carry it over plus that month over charge, so instead of fixing the issue, you tell my wife is not full payment so had to make payment arrangement and she didnt know why, while still paying the same payment and equipment cost one by one was paid off, but my payment never went down, because the over charge Sprint did on my account, i found out this, when you set up arrangement the auto pay drop off but no one explan to my wife, 2nd around June 2020 is when all equipment paid in full, and my bill also went to nearly $600, so you over charge me, and added late fee because what my wife paid it should be the right payment instead add the late fee on top the over charge, and my wife each month try to call and didn't know why auto pay keep getting dropped, my wife is from Taiwain, her english is not up to par, so each time she call, your customer service was rude and keep telling her that we are the one thats canceling Auto pay and the monthly bill is what it is, when my wife said no its less, your customer service got more rude and told her that if she pay a full payment nearly $600 and she didnt have to set up arrangement, instead of break down my account with 10 line and 1 is tablet line with promo, and your customer service removed the promo and over charged another device, and my son went got a iphone 11 and a cheap phone for my dad, than with promo my wife got a iphone 11 and a tablet on promo, so my bill should of been 9 phone line start at $45 than $25 each for 8 lines and $10 for ipad total of $265 plus tax and fees, but it didnt happen that way, still nearly $600 payment, once over charged happen this account just keep wrong direction, when your system removed the Autopay payment went up, and on top of the over charge you added late fee, payment went up and just got all the device paid off my family added $36, $8, $15, $29 on new device, that put my account way over because no one adjust the payment when the device was paid, than the 4 new device, not only you removed the promo what my wife signed but you over charged.
I got back in mid july, my wife is telling me about late fees, payment didnt change when the old device of 10 of them was paid off, and autopay keep getting dropped and we didnt get the promo price on the new device and late fee plus no autopay the payment was high, i ask her did she call Customer service and have them check, because if the amount i told my wife to pay is the amount i have been paying all those years with no issue, but than the payment should of drop once each device drop off the bill and that payment should cover everytning and i should have credit because i paid the same and devices all dropped off, instead that payment became not in full? And my wife had to set up payment arrangement? That is not right, so i call Sprint spend 4 hours teaching your customer service about Customer Service, at first the guy that i talk to has no clue, keep repeating about not full payment and late fees and he said i shouldnt get what i cant pay!! Wow, i just simply ask him to do simple math, what is $45 add $25 than add $25 and to get to 9 line than $10 for ipad, he was confused, because it was over $260 difference, so he said do it his way came up $180 differance, so he said because the late fees and no autopay thats why is that amount, i was like wow, by doing your way, you added late fee and no autopay discount still off by $180 what about that?
I also told him we set up auto pay somehow it keep dropping off? Why and if you do the math right you can see what we paid more than your number so how is that late fee? 4 hours i try to make this person your company hires understand the math, finally he said yea your right it should not happen on late fees because we over charged you and somehow it wasn't the same plan you showed me, i said i have the contract, just because i paid all the phone off and i never changed my plan somehow if your system try to fiqure how to bill and since my device is paid, it changed my plan? So fix it, he told me he will credit back this and that and put my promo back on and so fourth, and I i told him to cancel 3 of my line because i didnt needed, he said no problem, a battle wow, but guess what it was still wrong, in september i had to call again, 6 hours that time, my 3 line i ask to cancel wasnt canceled, and my wife promo ipad wasnt promo and again same thing happened, your people telling my wife wasnt full payment and now set arrangement and not only the first issue did not get fixed but hundreds carry to the following month, so i called every 2 week until in December, i just asked a supervisor this time, a very sharp and understanding person, before i can say anything, he said i can see what is wrong with your account, and yes he broke it down just like what i had it saved me 7 hours of headaches, he said some credit wasnt issue correctly and the 10 line shold of been less and i can see the new equipment charge, he ask me did i put my account on autopay and i said what is removed again?
So we found out when your customer service dont listen correctly and tell a costomer what he or she is going to do plus acknowledge to remove 3 line but didnt do of course my payment will not match for what we discussed, so each payment became not in full again nightmare, this Supervisor said if i can give him until next day, he will see and investgate why my account wasnt done correctly and he will adjust everyrhing, so i waited his call back for a week, im thinking maybe he fixed everything and didnt have to talk to me? Dont know why he didnt call? So in Janurary 2021 my bill was more out of wack, now im mad because that supervisor know what happen and should of took care the mistake, instead he did nothing, i called the Loyalty Department and got hold of a nice lady, she is the supervisor for them, now imagine all i went through, frustrated beyond believe, and i had to explan everything to her again like every time i call, finally she removed the 3 lines i requested months back and removed late fee, and put me back on promo for those 4 new devices, put auto pay back on almost everything, but she said she couldnt credit the non autopay discount because she said we removed it, and nothing she can do, i told her this, we never removed autopay, because i get over charged everymonth and my plan got changed when my 10 devices wad paid off, but i did not change the plan and because of that i got overcharhed incloude my newer devices your people removed the discount and saud it wasnt the Sprint promotion at this point, but when my wife signed for 2 years because the promo was active a line iphone and get ipad 1/2 off at that time, since the promo was over but do what we signed at the time of your promotion just because is over so you wont honor what was signed by both party how do that work? And because that the payment was off, and than tell my wife to again set up arrangement and charge me late fee, i guess that is how Sprint operate, charge with dont care about anything, just play denial game and see if any guess catch it, than its so confusing anyway hoping there is not any guess complaint, than you will fix it, because the same issue happened to me 4 times, so how is that my fault if your system some how removed the promo and raised the payment amount!!
and again telling your customer the right payment is not a full payment than you add late fees on top of the mistake than set up arrangement to have your customer pay your company mistske plus "" let me teach you on auto pay because that has been a nightmare, it depend how many line a guest have, it will make a huge amount difference on the bill""" we did not ever cancel autopay, because your mistake on plan also promo change monthly bill to be higher and unstead of fixing it, you make a arrangement for us to pay your mistake and put a late fee with it? Everytime you set up a arrangement it cancel the autopay, i learned the hardway, so the autopay technically you set up autopay so your the one thats been canceling my autopay, and those customer service did not know, because your upper management told me!! So i had enough of using my time away from my family, i tried almost a full years calling Sprint each month to twice a month to let you know the bill issue, and its the same each time, i pulled my call log and nearly over 100 hours not include got lied to and you people never call back when they said they will, and i have health condition and i travel for work my job is to hire and train new manager for a company twice your size, are you going to pay what i make per hour? And the headache each month because its never right after i paid off my 10 devices, than i guess since i finished the contract and had no more use for me?
And i feel like how your people talk to my wife, just because her english is not yet good so you treated her with disrespect, because she is Taiwainess? She is a victim of racism by Sprint, and your company wasted my time on my only days off not spend with my wife and kids but with Sprint, and knowing because its your fault but refuse to make it right, if the promo was never removed, my plan didnt change for so reason, and what we have been paying with cost of those devices, when its paid my bill went up?? And thats why you had to make arrangement for me to pay your mistake and arrangement cancel autopay what your team did but acuse me or my wife that cancel autopay? This way you wont have to credit!!
I told your team, if in february 2021, if my bill is not corrected i will move from Sprint, and your company still owes me money, and i have a balance on those 4 devices has little over $1000 left if your company dont credit back nearly $1000 of my money than i will keep the devices and if your company send me to colkection than i will sue Sprint again for not deliver whats promised and the headaches and my time i will go after Sprint in full, back in 2016 Sprint did the same to me, would not admit any wrong doing but wanted me to pay your overcharge, i did the same, i went above and beyond pleaing to Sprint to make it right, instead Sprint came after me in something you did, i spend 4 month begging your team to fix, but i wasted my time, so i sue Sprint because you send me to collection, and i won, i could of have your company pay tens of thousands of dollars but i didnt to be nice, i told and called my last attempt to help your company in February 2021, and they hung up on me, i have all bills thats overcharged as well call log to show hundreds if hour spend, i will give Sprint one last chance to drop this, make this account gone and leave me alone because my health, last lawsuit i didnt even use my attorney and i won no question, this time i will use my attorney and are your company ready to pay? And i will makesure contact the news and share my experiance with everyone and im sure you will have people calling you on their accounts, today is Wednesday 4/28/2021, i need your respond by end of this week, if not next Monday you will be dealing with Morgan and Morgan Law Firm, my last attempt to help Sprint.
Thank You

- Promise alot before you sign
- Friendly at begaining
- Snd great promotion
- All as mentioned

Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Keep everything you sign, when Sprint promise you anything have them put it in writing, fix any issue at the same call because they will not return your call ad promised, this way the next person would have to deal with your big issue not him or her, denial is what they do, check your bill every month, because if you has a promo or a special deal through work, their system will remove it and your payment will not be in full so they set up arrangement and add a late fee to the issue done by Sprint, also will cancel your auto pay so that mistake become hundreds, Sprint will also blame you that canceled the auto pay because they dont even know

Verified ReviewerBroken promise promotion
Im writing following many many phone calls/chat sessions trying to get my issue resolved.
I have been given different answers, promises, credits/charges adjustments yet no one has been able Or willing to fix the problem once and for all.
I have been a Sprint customer for 17yrs! Thats a LONG time to be loyal to 1 cell service provider!
I have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars over the last 17yrs, always having at least 3 active lines and 6 currently.
I have also always taken advantages of offered promotions.
In Oct I was offered a promotion for upgrade on 3 of our line with a reduced mthly lease fee.
I was told numerous times when I began calling/chatting to ensure the lines had been coded correctly for the offered promotion, that it was indeed and i should begin seeing such following 1-2 billing cycles.
I contacted support at least twice in Nov, 3+ times in Dec, and now twice in January so far.
I believed it had been resolved following a lengthy conversation with a customer care supervisor on 12/15.
Nicole assured me that my lines would be coded with a broken promise credit, and adjustments would be processed each bill for the 3 lines in question for a total of 19mths.
I was issued a credit($110.70) for the dec statement to reflect said promotion.
I was told both on 12/15 by Nicole and in 12/28 by Briana that the additional credit for the overage($110.70) i paid on the Nov bill would be credited off of Januarys statement as well as seeing the adjustments for the promotion.
I called early this week when not seeing the credit of $110.70
Once my statement was available. I was told again that after going over numerous notes throughout my acct that I was in fact owed the credit of $110.70
For the Nov overage, I was told it would be credited within 24hrs.
I asked the rep to check again to just verify that my lines were coded correctly to have the credits applied following the 15th, which is when Nicole had applied the broken promise credit in Dec.
Once again I was given the run around, being told the promotion wasnt showing correctly on the acct and again being told I may not have actually be eligible for said promotion.
I was transferred to a few different representivives and after nearly 3 consecutive hrs on the line, no one was able to offer a solution.
I have chat interactions ids, phone call dates as well as who Ive spoken to and conclusions.
I dont know what the actual problem is but this is definitely no way to treat a loyal customer.
I am so fed up with the run around that I have indeed reached out to other cell service providers to obtain options for switching service for our entire family.
Im requesting someone contact me to get this issue resolved ASAP.
Preferred solution: Price reduction
SCAM ! FREE PHONES TO CUSTOMERS INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM BUY NEW PHONES !-
NOW THE WORD IS SPRINT IS MAKING THEIR CLIENTS BUY NEW PHONES FOR THE 5G NETWORK BECAUSE OF MERGING WITH T-MOBLIE... MY THEORY IS THE OTHER COMPANIES HAVE MERGED WITH T-MOBLE AND LATER SPLIT WITH T-MOBILE GOING TO THE NEXT- WHICH MAKES ME BELIEVE IT'S A SCAM FOR CLIENTS TO BUY NEW PHONES.
User's recommendation: NEED TO GET A PETITION GOING SO SPRINT WILL KEEP EXISTING CUSTOMERS AND GET NEW PHONE BY GIVING FREE 5G PHONES AT NO COST OR NO CONTRACT!
I Hate Sprint
Trying to pay off phone and switch over to T Mobile is a freaking nightmare. Its easier to buy a house. Hope they go bust.

Verified ReviewerHorrible Customer Service
We have been Sprint customers for 10 years, we were part of the Galaxy Forever plan. While on vacation, I dropped my phone and it will only work with the S Pen detached and used on the screen.
I went onto my account and saw that we are eligible for "early upgrade". We made an appt with T-Mobile/Sprint to exchange our phones, the sales girl said it would cost me $29.00 since my phone needs repair, $0 down and $55/a month for phone. After an hour, she stops and says, " you need to pay off your phones". Wait, what??
That is not early upgrade, of course if I pay off the phones we can upgrade, we have NEVER had to do that before. I was told that since the merge between T-Mobile and Sprint, that they cancelled the Galaxy forever plan, we were not informed, and now we are on an installment plan that makes us pay off the phones before upgrade. That the early upgrade does not apply to us even though it says we are on our account. Fast forward, I spent 11 hours being hung up on, disconnected from chat, multiple phone calls in and speaking to "senior supervisors", every time I was getting somewhere, I would be disconnected and get no call back and would have to start the whole process over and could never get back to the person I was working with.
We are grandfathered in with the truly unlimited data, no throttling, and I would hate to have to change carriers but is it worth the poor customer service?? I am making one last attempt to get this resolved and then I'm moving on to a new carrier.
- Truly unlimited plan
- Terrible service
- Poor customer service
Preferred solution: Upgrade both phones without paying off the old phones, get the $20/a mo charge for the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G with returning the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 plus phones
User's recommendation: Use a different carrier
Beth's lack of being an asset for Sprint
Customer service calls are a huge factor in the whole face of Sprint.... my only complaint is with her our phone call was approximately at and or around 7 pm when she refused to transfer me to a manager not once but approximately 9 times she then told me to hold and proceeded to not transfer call and instead terminated the whole call and give or take 30 minute process
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution
User's recommendation: Do not speak to Beth she is rude and non-assetable not helpful in any form

Verified ReviewerPorting number out of Sprint is ridiculously painful!!!
I wanted to port my dad's line out of my Sprint account into my BILs T-Mobile account. I figured, they are now the same company, so it should be a piece of cake.
Boy, was I wrong!!! First, my BIL goes to T-Mobile store to get a new SIM card for my dad's phone and get the number ported to T-Mobile. The rep there says, they cannot do that because they have been advised not to. Huh?
So my BIL takes the SIM card home and calls T-Mobile. The rep then informs him I need to get the number released first. I call Sprint - put on hold for about an hour (!!!!) and when rep comes on line, she does not understand what I'm trying to do. I tried "port my number", "release my line" and few other terms, but she keeps putting me on hold to check something (maybe a dictionary?).
Finally she comes back and tells me she needs to transfer me to another department. This is about 20 minutes after I started talking with her. I have a meeting coming up, so ask her to call me back after 30 minutes. No luck with that return call.
So I call back again, and so far am on hold for 32 minutes. Hopefully by the end of the night I'll be done. At this point, I'm just gonna port all my lines to someone other than Sprint!!!
And will NEVER even think about going back to Sprint if they give me free phones and free lines. Just not worth the stress!
Preferred solution: Apology
User's recommendation: STAY AWAY FROM SPRINT!
To see if I have international calling
When I go to Cabo I want my calls covered. I dont want a high bill when I come back. Will my calls be covered

Outrageous bill that I do not owe.
I received a bill from Sprint in the approximate amount of 1800 and some dollars. When we cancel the service we turned in all the devices, two cell phones, one tablet and one hotspot.
We had been told by the manager of our local store at Richmond Avenue in York PA that we do not owe anything else. We had experienced a lot of problems with the phones and the staff and Im very upset that this has not been resolved.
- Cons you never really pay off your phone
- Representatives that lie
- Customer service and support

I purchased a Samsung 20 ultra. Two weeks later phone didn't work, so I, took it back to sprint.
They fixed it, and 2 weeks later phone not working. I was told that it was to late to change for another new phone. So this went on for a few months back and for so then I was told to go to samsung they was unable to fix so they gave me another phone I thought was new. Turns out that phone didn't work either.
So I'm stuck with a used phone and paying for a new phone. This is not exceptable.
The camera doesn't work on this phone so they sending me another used phone and im still paying for a new phone and i have been with sprint for over 20 plus year. Thanks

So true! I was told my iphone6 would be accepted.
Clean rose gold. I loved that phone, but ! A free phone in exchange sounded pretty good. I got $15 credi.
Said phone was damaged. I have screen protector and a expensive case, no scratches. I was unable to get my phone back from the company. I knew what mailed but once mailed, it’s gone.
I’ve had service for 17 months. That iPhone still hurts. Keep your phone! Also had been accuse of owing more than I did 2 different times I was told skipped a month.
Only way to resolve is to stick with LONG call till they locate their error.
Then call back in a couple days to ensure you show current. Hate spending the time but it’s the best solution.
