Getting a new phone overall took 1.5 hours from start to finish. The worker was kind, but they do…read moretry to tack on all of these "deals" to your quote. It was better than buying a car, worse than trying to checkout at a store that wants you to open a credit card.

This was one of the worst experiences I have ever had with purchasing a product, cell phone or…read moreanything else. The whole place smells of arrogance. They walk around like some king on a throne. I had purchased the phone online to be picked up in store, seems simple enough. The concierge met us at the door and asked if we had an appointment and I had. She then handed us to another sales associate who went and got the new phone. She asked if we wanted them to transfer the data from the phone we were trading to the new phone? Thinking it would be best to have everything taken care of on one stop I agreed to pay the $29. We were transferred to a different even more arrogant "A" who asked for a photo ID so they could except the traded phone and transfer the data. I showed it to them. After standing there for about 45 minutes thinking we would be finished soon they said, "this is going to take three hours". Maybe could have led with that in the beginning. We agreed to come back later and pick up the phone. When we returned, they seemed oblivious to the fact we were trading a phone in. They said they needed a photo ID to do that. I did not have it with me because I was only going to pick up the phone, right. So we took both phones and brought the trade in back the next morning. So yes, that worked well, three trips to the store. Don't do business with these people unless you want a challenge.

Pretty messy and frustrating experience at the Ames US Cellular. I wanted to create my own account…read moreafter sharing a joint plan with my mom, who lives in another town. The process to create this new account was not well explained and required two trips to the store and several phone calls outside of those trips just to transfer the paperwork my mom had signed to an associate at this store. When I went in the third time to finally set up my account, I was told the paperwork could not be accessed even though I had been assured by another associate that they would have no problem getting to it. Fortunately, an associate called the out-of-town store and got an image of the paperwork transferred so I could finally sign it and start the process to open my own account...and then they had technical issues and STILL couldn't open the account. So I left with the understanding that I still did not have my own account or service plan with US Cellular. I went to Verizon to open an account there. Of course, they also had technical issues and did not get my number ported over for another two days. Within those two days, I got a text from one of the US Cellular associates, Joe, saying that my account had been created and that I could finally upgrade, which I took to mean, upgrade to a better phone and choose a plan for it. Lacking the time to once again visit the store and being already invested in Verizon, I did not respond. Once my Verizon service had been activated the next day, I called US Cellular and learned my service had been cancelled. Last week, I got a bill from US Cellular for a full month of service. I did not believe I had signed up for a service plan in the first place and had not signed anything aside from the transfer paperwork (which I was not given a copy of). When I called this store to ask why I had been charged for a month of service, Joe said that by signing the transfer paperwork, I had agreed to sign up for their basic plan. This was not explained to me in store or ever. I assumed I would sign the transfer paperwork, create my account, sign up for a plan, pick out a phone, then get that phone activated with the new plan and on the new account. Nobody at US Cellular told me otherwise. Furthermore, two days had elapsed from the time I was texted about my account being created to the time when my number was ported over to Verizon. So I had inadvertently used two days of service total. And was then charged for the full month. Joe said it was policy to be charged for the whole month regardless of what I had actually used. Great policy. Fortunately, the US Cellular customer service folks were very helpful and got my bill down to less than $5 for my two days of surprise service. So, I guess be careful what you sign at the Ames US Cellular, be prepared to waste a ton of time trying to figure out basic things, and be prepared to be billed for a lot more than you expect.

Nov 4, 2019 we went to upgrade our phones..Sales Associate Danny Thomas was friendly, personable…read moreand very helpful. I honestly dread the the whole update the phone process, it never flows well! Well, I still dread it and it didn't flow well, it was a very lengthy process due to all OUR circumstances. Danny eased some of the pain of it as he was patient and made several calls to ensure the best for us his customers. Thank you Danny!
