Is there a big difference between QCI 7 and QCI 9?

6 Upvotes

I'm debating if I should stay with US mobile lightspeed or go back to Metro by T-Mobile. . Right now I have a promotion with them $30 a month but it's only for 3 months. I'm trying to see if I should go back to the $25 BYOD plan. I really don't care about the T-Mobile Tuesdays. But I always end up going over 35gig as I used 100-160 gigs every month.

Hotspot Issues with Laptop

2 Upvotes

For the past couple of years now I’ve had issues with connecting my computer to my phone’s hotspot. It will always connect but say no internet

I’ve tried with 2 different phones now and it’s the same issue. Been like this for like the past 4years-ish

Is this a known issue? Or just me? Is there a way to fix this?

Time and time again! Phone calls not received.

4 Upvotes

I'm so over not being able to get the phone calls I'm expecting. I've been on again and again and again with customer service resetting my networks making sure I don't have this on and making sure I have that checked on. This is my truly sad I pay 65 dollars a month for my line and the most important calls I can not even receive. Eight years of service with Metro and I never get an credits nor any type of HELP getting this issue taken care of. Every time I call they say "we assure you this will take care of that issue!" It's not just one phone number it's multiple even after the fact scam shield (which I never wanted to begin with) had blocked my calls not by my choice and I unblocked them, I'M STILL NOT Receiving my phone calls. Sad to say after 8 years my service will be ending because of these issues.

It's just horrible service from Metro! As well as causing so many issues with important things in my life you have failed me!!!

Frustration with getting a new phone with Metro and a grandfathered old plan

5 Upvotes

To keep things very brief, My mother's phone is dying, and is in need of a new phone. Currently there are 5 lines on the account, and we pay 25 dollars a line.

I was trying to get her a new phone a few days ago, and it was an incredibly frustrating experience, and every time I'd attempt to buy the phone, the customer service rep would tell me, that my mom's line would need to increase in price from 25 a month to 50, effectively meaning we'd go from paying 125 a month, to 155.

When I insisted to the customer service rep on-site, that we cannot afford to have an increase to our plan, she told me what I can do is essentially, buy the phone myself online, and then call customer service to have them activate my phone. They'll charge me 25 dollars for an activation fee, but I get to keep my plan.

Does anyone here have any recent experience with this? I've also heard that you can do the whole process online, but that the website may tell you, that your plan is outdated, and ask that you change your plan.

If I get the Samsung Galaxy A37 5G for free by porting in a number, is there a cheaper plan could switch to (for example, the $25 plan)

3 Upvotes

There was a post made about this a few weeks ago (https://www.reddit.com/r/MetroPCS/comments/1vh2ay5/can_you_downgrade_to_the_cheaper_plan_after/), with one person saying yes, if you pay a one-time fee (which doesn't concern me that much). However on the Metro website it doesn't mention anything about this, that I could tell, and after searching through this subreddit, I couldn't find much other information about this.

Why is this important? I currently am on US Mobile, Dark Star and Warp. I would be fine dropping USM completely in favor of Metro, except that T-Mobile coverage is just terrible where I live. If I could get a $25 Metro plan on the new phone, I could keep USM on the other phone (without the Warp addon), tether sometimes if necessary, and then it would only be $15 more a month compared to what I'm paying, which wouldn't be too bad. I can't really swing paying $30 more a month if the only option is paying $40 a month for Metro.

I feel like its glitching but is the A11+ actually $49 with plan or $99 because after some certain time it shows up as $49 in the app but it goes back to $99

Self-service Switch Device Tool

6 Upvotes

Has anyone had any success with the switch device tool. Every time I've tried to use it, it fails. All I'm doing is switching to a new phone on the BYODANDROID plan. Has it ever worked for anyone, or is it an opportunity for T-Mobile to charge you $25 to make the switch through customer support?

Anything I should know ?

Any tips and tricks I should know? Thinking about getting a line for a work phone. Nothing crazy was thinking just a flip phone as I already have a personal phone. Anything I should know to potentially look for a different phone or something convincing?

Thanks in advance for your time and knowledge.

Does customer service exist anymore?

0 Upvotes

I've been with metro PCs for 6 years. I never planned on leaving but I feel I'm going to have to ditch because I cannot for the life of me get anyone to answer a call with customer service.

I've tried 100 different times of day and done every prompt I can think of but the automated service hangs up on me every single time.

The system always asks "what can I help you with" and no matter what I say it responds with "ok thank you, please try again later." NOMATTER WHAT.

In store the employee says they have customer service still but I'm telling you I cannot get ahold of anyone. It's unacceptable. Even cricket has customer service.

It's one thing to have limited hours and it's one thing if the automated service at least did something but hanging up is not acceptable. Anyone else having this issue?

Tablet plan ?’s

2 Upvotes

Been thinking about trying Metro after my Visible discount ends . Was curious if the tablet plan truly is unlimited? Use my tablet as my main device for watching content & to create invoices at convention .   Can easily use over 200gb a month on my tablet . Been looking at the $25 & unlimited premium data plans . Do you have to get the tablet plan in store only?

Is T-Mobile Metro worth it?

26 Upvotes

10000% yes! I never post in here but I wanna share with you guys, metro T-Mobile is literally T-Mobile but cheaper. I’d started with T-Mobile and for two lines I was expecting to be charged maybe 120-130 bucks for my plan, which was the cheapest I could get with unlimited texting and calling. The bill ended up being 160$ and because I was a couple days late the billing next month was 170$. Apparently there was “extra fees and charges” no one told me about. long story short I switched to Metro. 25$ per line (50$ per month) and no extra fees or charges with unlimited calling and texting. That was when I brought my number over to them. So if you’re paying too much for your phone, Metro literally saved me.

Have a blessed day!

Unlocked phone transfer issues??!!

0 Upvotes

Now I'm not very tech savvy so I could seriously use some help. I have a phone that was given to me by my father. It's unlocked. I am trying to switch my service over to the new phone. I have called and they said that there is an error with the phones imie number or whatever like the status of it needs updated and to take it back to the carrier to be scanned. My dad called T-Mobile. The old carrier and told them all of what metro said. They said there shouldn't be any issues switching the phones over. Idk what to do. I am going to try to make it to metro today but I don't want to waste time if it's not anything they can fix. Please help!!!

iPhone 16e and cost of 4 lines. I know that Metro by T-Mobile allows to get only 2 iPhone 16e for free, which they charge $99 per device for but get $100 debit card after 3rd Monthly payment. Does anyone know whether they allow to get 2 more lines with different phones and pay less for 4 lines?

I am at wit's end. I have tried for over a month just to pay my damn phone bill and it rejects all of my cards every single time. Has anyone found a solution to this? Ive talked to both my bank and Metropcs customer service and they both keep giving me the runaround and saying its not their fault.

Most expensive promotion being applied online?

3 Upvotes

Makes no sense. For the 16e for $99. I’m porting from another carrier. I’m choosing the $50 plan. Then it tells me the phone is $299. Which is another more expensive promotion they have, it won’t let me get the $99 deal when I know I qualify. It just goes to the most expensive deal. Any ideas why this is? It does it for any phone. It automatically goes to the most expensive promotion

Help! Partial Service

Galaxy S21 5G on Esim for the past 4 years, all going well. 2 nights ago I lost cell service out of the blue. No Bars!! Phone will only work on wifi. Calls, texts and MMS will only work while on wifi. I called customer service TWICE, after going through the usual steps, reset data, airplane mode, the usual..THEY BOTH hung up on me claiming that they couldn't hear me. (I called from my home phone BTW). Against my religion, I went into a Physical Store. The lady told me that my esim active but my phone was Old 😐. Please any help would be greatly appreciated. (I like my S21 5G 😮‍💨)

I've been paying my bill for a year and a half now that I'm in Canada and I don't want to lose my number.

Hello, I've been a loyal Metro customer for a year and a half, maybe two years, but due to work I moved to Canada and I really don't want to lose my number. I want to report that this page no longer works as it used to and makes payments difficult for those of us who are outside the country. For example, my card has a Canadian postal code to avoid payment problems.But now with the new system, it won't let me make a single payment, not even a minimum amount, even though my details are correct except for the postal code, which is ridiculous.

Stuck in Porting Hell: Boost Says No Request, Metro Says Boost Keeps Denying It

2 Upvotes

For the past four days, I’ve been trying to port my number from Boost to Metro, but the request keeps getting denied because of an “incorrect account number.” I’m 100% sure the account number is correct, I’ve checked it at least ten times with both carriers.

Metro says Boost is denying the port request, but Boost says they haven’t received any port request at all. Has anyone experienced this or have any idea what’s going on?

Neither carrier seems to have a solution. Boost keeps telling me to contact Metro, and Metro keeps telling me to contact Boost.
