I refill my minutes every month on a card but they switched it with out telling me. They wanted to take it out of my bank account, but I had already spent the $50.00 on the card. So, I go into the store and they inform me that the would not activate because they switched my account over to take the payment out of my checking account. They did not have my bank account and I was not going to give them my bank account. So, I called the customer number on the back of the card and a gentleman told me that they could fix it , if I would just ready him the number. The gentleman ended up hanging up on me. I called the number back and no one would pick up the telephone. I would like to be refunded in the amount of $50.00Business response

Dear **************:
On July 24, 2023, we received your complaint, dated July 21,2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
You said that you purchased a Re-Boost card, but a Boost Mobile retail store declined to take it as payment. You requested a refund.
When we spoke, I requested the number from the card you purchased, which you provided later that day. I forwarded your concerns and information to the appropriate department,but they were unable to locate where we had received funds for that card. As we did not receive the money you paid for it, we are unable to provide a refund for this issue. You may wish to contact the retailer who you purchased the card from regarding a refund.
We sincerely regret any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
Sincerely,

I was just done with the company and stuff because they werent doing anything for me. I was paying for service that I could never use I can give you bank statements about it and stuff and show you what I did pay for it , but they refused to do anything for me. I did the troubleshooting with the phone and they still wouldnt help me about it because the local company did not know what to do and I actually switched over to my old phone and everything was completely fine. The phone itself would never connect to Wi-Fi if I had the mobile data on but when I switched it back over to my other phone, it was completely fine so it was the phone itself and the other phone that I did have it actually connected to the Wi-Fi when I transferred my number back over to my old phone I want all of the money back that I have spent of not having a workable phone for the month not the previous ones but from the December to feb and get a resolution of my moneyBusiness response

On March 12, 2023, we received your complaint, dated March 11, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
You said your Boost Mobile account was activated on January 30, 2023, but you did not receive your tablet until February 11, 2023. You requested an adjustment for that timespan.
On February 23, we experienced a cybersecurity incident that has affected some of our internal communications, customer call centers, and internet sites.
Our teams are working hard to restore systems as soon as possible and are making steady progress. Our records indicate that your account and device are showing usage. If you are still experiencing issues, please contact us.
As a courtesy, I applied a one-time $5.15 credit for service between January 31, 2023, when your account was initiated, and February 11, 2023, when you said you received the tablet.
Thank you for your patience as we work to resolve this.

I am rejecting this response because: Re: Boost/Dish tablet ************I am rejecting this offer because I am still without service, and every time I call I am being told that they can't check my service, so I made it easy for them, I took the tablet to a Boost Dealer Store #***** located at ********************************************************** ************ where ***** assisted me in calling Boost/Dish through her dealer connect line to discover the following:
***** at store ***** makes the call on the Dealers Connect Number and places the call on speaker phone so that I can hear what the representative of Dish has to say. Dish rep asks ***** to restart the tablet, then to change the sim card which she did, and after an hour and half of trying to get the Internet and **** services turned on the Dish rep concluded that the tablet is indeed defective and WILL NOT WORK. WHILE i HAVE PREPAID FOR +6 MONTHS OF SERVICE WHICH I HAVE NOT GOTTEN TO USE, IN ORDER TO USE THEM I HAVE TO OBTAIN ANOTHER TABLET!!!
I would like to believe that Dish did not know the tablet was no good when they sent it to me, but seeing the behavior I have experienced through the weeks from Boost and Dish, I'm inclined to believe they knew it was defective and sent it out in efforts to steal my monies, and I have to wonder how many other consumers are suffering in the same manner. What I would like for Dish to do is the following:
I want a new tablet that works, and
credit for all the unused time due to their failure to provide a working product instead of a "lemon". I have since filed a complaint with THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE IN MY STATE ALONG WITH THE **** ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE. WHILE DISH CAN KEEP ON CRYING WOLF ABOUT RANSOMWARE, THE REALITY OF THIS MATTER IS THE FOLLOWING:
WHEN THEY TOOK MY MONIES AND THOSE OF OTHERS WHO ARE IN THE SAME SITUATION AS THEY COMMITED THEFT VIA CONVERSION AND FRAUD THROUGH A FALSE SALE AND SCHEME. IF THIS MATTER IS NOT RESOLVED NOW, I WILL BE SEEKING TO FILE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AS THERE ARE ENOUGH OF ** IN THIS SAME SITUATION TO WARRANT THE ATTENTION OF THE MANY ENTITIES LICENSING DISH AND BOOST TO CONDUCT BUSINESS....AT WHICH POINT THEIR LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ***** WILL COST THEM MANY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS MORE.
