I bought a new Samsung phone via the internet to avoid the activation fee. Sara at US Cell told me…read moreto bring the phone in and she'd be happy to help transfer the data over. So I did. Our first encounter was a wrong esim on the box compared to the actual phone. Tried to fix that. All should be good after 24 hours. Nope. She called again. Wrong ticket created so a new one done. This went on for 3 days. Got the manager Lynette involved. Beteeen the two of them, they finally got the right people involved. They went above and beyond helping me get my phone activated. I can't say enough good things about how they worked with me. My hat is off to both of you. Thank you very, very much!

(kind of a strange way to title a yelp location, but it is a US Cellular store) We had a really…read moregreat experience at this U.S Cellular location! We went twice, both to look for a new phone and switch onto my husband's phone plan. The staff are really friendly and energetic, especially for it being the end of the day. Both team members were very knowledgeable and helpful but also didn't put any pressure on us to get the more expensive models/plans or buy every odd and end in the store. I've loved U.S Cellular already for years, the plans have changed over time and all of our questions were answered. Very bright and clean store. It is nice that they do have a giant variety of phones for your price range; from a basic $8/month to a techy $60/month. Any cons? When we bought the phone, one of the newer expensive ones, they only had one in stock and since I needed it right away I had to get the only style they had....bummer. Also, it's frustrating that most phone/computer stores don't have many of the the actual phones on display to play around with. Who wants to look at a plastic cutout? I understand that they want to show off the newer, fancier camera phones but not everyone can afford those and people deserve to try the ones they can. Overall, it was still a great experience and the best one I've been in yet. Pop in and take a look!

Event date: 8/19/24, around 3:15pm-3:50pm…read more Hello, I was called to translate for one of your employees today and was appalled at their service. I hope you will take quick action to make sure this never happens again. Here is a summary: A Spanish-speaking gentleman came to the Verizon store to pay his bill in cash. According to the female employee, she "explained to him" that she could not find his account, but also told him she would take the cash anyway. In addition, apparently, she told him that if she took his cash, it could not be refunded. Clearly, the Spanish-speaker didn't understand the interaction. Once he realized there was no receipt or that his account balance hadn't decreased, he asked for a refund. The employee would not refund his $50. This is when I was called by a bystander to translate (who will be closing her account with you after this incident). Also, I did not personally know the Spanish-speaker. I spoke directly with the Verizon employee and attempted to ask the following clarification questions: Why did you take the money if there was no account? Under what account number did you credit the $50? Why can't you give the money back? Can I speak with someone above you? Now that there is confusion, do you understand that there is a language barrier? It was very difficult to get through these questions because your employee was constantly speaking over and interrupting me, did not value my translation services, was hostile and disrespectful, and disregarded his English proficiency. Then, she forced the bystander who called me AND the Spanish-speaker to leave by threatening to call the police. Once I realized that the Verizon employee could just pocket the money since there was no record or account, I questioned where the money would go. Finally, after bystanders took charge and stood up for him, the client was refunded as he departed. This location needs anti-racism education and training on customer service and how to open a register to refund cash.

I was formerly the general manager for the ZAGG kiosk in Madison WI for Leslie and Mike Walker, the…read morefranchise owners. Please keep in mind that this was a franchise location and NOT directly involved with ZAGG as a company outside of selling their products. After being open since September the owners had hired an insane trio of worthless employees who had been stealing from the location, treating customers rudely and basically running the place into the ground. I was hired in January to fix the situation. Right away, none of the employees liked me as I was tightening security, not letting them screw around or steal and scheduling and trying to get them off their motivated to work instead of diving into their cell phones all day. Needless to say all of them quit or I had to fire them. So then I replaced them with more reliable staff. Even to the point of hiring a good friend who needed work and driving him to and from work each day he was on as he had no car. Then it became clear that the problem with sales wasn't just the previous staff. While the zagg products are good, the screen protectors are far too over priced at most franchise locations compared to those available online, at franchise locations in other states and with other brands at other store fronts in the very same mall we were in. The location owners were also charging an insane warranty replacement price that most zagg retailers and the mail in service with ZAGG do not charge customers. If they had put this kiosk in one of the stores or outlets closer to UW and kept a more fair price point on the screen protectors and warranties, they wouldn't have had a problem selling screen protectors at all. There are hardly any screen protection retailers in the UW area and collage students are a prime market for the service. The west towne mall location where this kiosk was is simply a place students do not shop in Madison. It is too far from the campus area and there is a larce commercial street mall right on the campus. I tried to tell the franchise owners this several times and even found three locations on the UW campus willing to host us in their stores on cross promotional deals but the owners simply ignored it. The franchise owners were also asking us to fake warranty returns to zagg for screens that were defective, did not properly attach to a customer's phone or ruined by the on demand screen cutter which was defective. The franchise owners refused to repair or replace it. Eventually the franchise owner's wife rolled into town on Feb 10th, 2017 to lay everyone off and closed the store with no prior notice even though it was obvious the choice had been made weeks before when I submitted the sales and market reports showing that the place would never be profitable on it's own. THEN the franchise owners (keep in mind this is not zagg corporate but a group of people franchising for them) tried to accuse us of stealing from the location and not properly administrating the location. It is a good thing I began collecting evidence to the contrary only a week after i was hired and noticed things were fishy. I have every sales report, bank drop report and even pictures of the fake warranties they were trying to pass over onto ZAGG. The last and final sale completed at the kiosk was a screen replacement for a woman's tablet that had been ordered weeks ago but never arrived. The franchise owner's wife put it on and it was full of dust when she placed it on the customer's tablet. She then told the customer to come back in a few weeks and she would replace it. Not even telling her that the location would be closed by then. It is likely that you will not see another ZAGG location in Madison ever again. I honestly DO NOT understand what these people were thinking or why ZAGG would allow people so incapable of running a business to run a franchise location for them.

A ROTTEN APPLE…read more Today I had my first negative experience with Apple. Sorry for the long read, but I'm angry enough to relate what happened. About two weeks ago, I bought a new iMac. The 2019 model I had was working fine, but I wanted to upgrade. I was told BOTH online by a consumer shopping assistant and in the Hilldale store that my current Mac was worth $100 in trade. (Not great, but at least something, for a computer with no issues that was babied). I ordered the new Mac. I picked it up 9 days ago. I was told "you have two weeks to get the data off your old iMac and reinstall the operating system". I took 8 days to get it wiped and ready for trade. Today, taking it in, I was told by the manager at Hilldale... "Oh, it's worth zero now... but you can leave it here and we'll recycle it." I argued the point that they had given me a period of two weeks to get it in for the trade, and he said "Well, I guess in that time it went from $100 to zero. Sorry." I brought it home. I went online with Apple. Talked with "specialists" online about the order who told me, "It looks like 15 hours ago the value dropped from $100 to 0." I said...."You gave me two weeks. I took 8 days. This is a bit ridiculous." It may be the last shopping experience EVER for me at the Hilldale Apple Store. Man, I miss the helpful people at Graphite. I doubt this would have happened.
