Unacceptable!

I've Called 4 days & Spoken to 4 Representatives, asjed the last w times to speak to a Supervisor, waited patiently for 1 hour each time, was told I'd be called back & never was about the status of my ohone which I ordered over 1 week ago, which the representatives 1st said tgey couldnt find, but When I click on " status" on my Order Email it says "Still Processing"

I need my phone!

Otherwise, I wouldve traveled & bought 1 immediately. I need a 2nd phone & a 2nd line to launcha new online business.

My order # 3189-38L3E3LE78

I Demand to know What is taking so long?

I need a Supervisor to call me back with Answers & options.

I told them that I needed help activating my new phone and when it came time to talk to a representative a recorded message said a representative will be with you. It repeated it over and over again. I never got to speak with a representative.

Customer service FAILURE

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • On 4/15/26, 3 refill attempts failed.
  • No service afterward.
  • Card was charged three times.
  • Refund promised in 3–5 days, not received.

They RIPPED us OFF on a Mastercard payment!

4/15/26 made 3 separate attempts to 'Refill' plan

Each time their garbage website said 'transaction failed'...

Result -NO service

Checked card site, found Simple Mobile charged us ALL 3 TIMES

Still NO cell service activated

Called their 'customer service' number

NO SERVICE, just *** 5000 miles away in a sweatshop repetitively reading scripts in ESL unintelligibly... what a JOKE

Finally they claimed our card would be refunded in 3 to 5 days

Still NO REFUND on card

Simple Mobile is simply FRAUDULENT

User's recommendation: recommended? NO WAY

Customer support is unsupportive

Website says chat with an agent, 8am-3am 7 days a week. I send a message requesting assistance and was sent an automated response telling me chat support is not available, although I attempted to contact at 12:24am CST- Sunday (which is 1:24 am EST) makes no sense why I could not be assisted, and VERY inconvenient for a paying customer with a service. Probably they should change the availability info on their website, very disappointing to not get support when needed.

User's recommendation: Network service is "meh"- just don't have an issue that requires customer support
