As a first time customer I was extremely dissatisfied.
Summary: Liars and Rude associates.
I bought a phone at Kore Comm LLC. (indirect retailer of T-Mobile, NOTE: this review does not reflect my opinion of T-Mobile Company.) I bought a phone and extended my T Mobile Contract, but I didn't like the phone so I was trying to return it before T-Mobile's 14 day return policy.
I came back to the store 7 days after I bought it to return it. One of the associates working at Kore Comm LLC said I COULDN'T return my cell phone because the rebate bar code was cut out--EVEN THOUGH I had never claimed that rebate, and had the bar code with me. (I found out today that this was an outright lie--it is against T-Mobile policy and state law to deny this specific return with these circumstances.)
Bummed out and confused, I called T-Mobile Corporate directly to ask about their return policy and told them my situation (whether or not I was allowed to return a cell phone with all its original accessories and the rebate bar code cut out). T-Mobile said it was OK to return the phone. so I did today.
Today, I went back to Kore Comm LLC to try to return my phone. At first they were going try to tell me that I couldn't, but I told them that I had called T-Mobile, and that they said it was okay to return it. So the associate got on the phone, and a few seconds later he got off the phone and proceeded the process of returning my cell phone.
After I returned the phone and left the store, I realized I forgot to format the SD card. So I went back to ask if he could format it for me while I witnessed it. So the associate got up from his seat reluctantly, and handed me the phone I has just returned and I pulled out the SD card so he could format it. (As if he couldn't do that himself...) I handed him the SD card, and he said "Do you really need to format it? Trust us, we'll do it." and I told him that I just wanted to make sure it was done. After I said this, he disdainfully threw the SD card on the counter-top and proceeded to look for an adapter so he could connect the SD card to his computer to format it. After finding the adapter, he tried to format the SD card. But he couldn't get the computer to read the SD card, so he took it out and said it's not working (and there was silence...what am I supposed to say to that? Obviously I want it formatted), so I offered to bring my laptop from my car and format it. And then he proceeded to chuckle, and gave me a " Are you serious." look. and said "Look, trust us, we'll format it for you."
Completely baffled and annoyed that this incompetent associate was so friggen lazy to do his job and help a customer, I just gave up and left so there was no further escalation.
Immediately, I drove home, called T-Mobile and filed a complaint on this branch.
Sucks for you, Kore Comm LCC., should've played nice :) read more
