Boost Mobile's reputation is significantly marred by consistent complaints regarding customer service and product reliability. Customers frequently express frustration over long wait times, inadequate support, and unresolved service issues, including poor coverage and delays in order fulfillment. While some positive feedback highlights helpful individual representatives, the overall sentiment indicates a lack of cohesive support and organization within the company. Additionally, concerns about misleading information and billing practices further detract from customer satisfaction. This combination of factors suggests a pressing need for Boost Mobile to enhance its customer service protocols and improve service reliability to retain its clientele.

Boost mobile does not value their customers. I have been with them for years and had a line that I couldn't use, they could see that the line had not been used and refused a refund and then was giving a free month if you pay your bill on time I pay on time every month never received a free month. Also I have a credit on my account and have had it for months but they have been taking the full payment off of my debit card. They just don't value their customers!
This is why people switch right here because of this company it is ridiculous you can't even call and get your own account number my phone was stolen how in the hell am I going to get a verification to that phone or what are they call it SIM card number if I don't have the phone like you're ridiculous this is why I'm switching I can never get a hold of my stuff again ridiculous my opinion is for anybody out there go to a different service and I'm saying that nice and kindly I promise you you won't like it boost sucks
They only thing you can do to make them honor their promises is to call incessantly and write down EVERYTHING, every time they lie, every time they try to pass the buck, every name, and keep calling until MAYBE you'll get at least an offer of compromise. It took me about eight months to get their attention when they owed me over $200 in overcharges! Keep calling! Make a weekend of it while you binge your favorite show. Welcome to the Boost Customer Service Jungle. :)
They suck all the way around, Your service don't work half the time, I have unlimited internet but still have to connect to my Wi-Fi in order to get on apps. Also they do not do payment extensions as where if you go to Metro pcs they give those kind of things, in other words run and run fast cause their service suck.
Also you can never get anyone that speak proper English very frustrating.
Boost is the worst phone company ever even worst then cricket and that is saying a lot.
They do things like change your number without your authorization.
All they do is constantly apologize for basically nothing, cuz they never fix anything or do anything to solve the problem.
You always have dropped calls or never get your calls or if you do get them you get them hours later or days later.
I had my previous number for about 6 years they took it upon themselves to go ahead and change my number without even asking me or me authorizing it.
Which in turn cause problems with me being locked out of my Microsoft I had to change my number with all my doctors.
They don't really seem to care about their customers at all any sense of the matter. They figure why should they there's always somebody right behind us dummies that will fall for the same BS. Then they pose to give you the best deal which is really not a deal they're actually ripping you off for service you really don't get, if anybody out there is interested in doing something about this horrible company we did some research. Morgan & Morgan is one of the attorneys that handles what we call cell phone fraud, because that's actually what they're doing is ripping their customers off for a horrible service that they so proudly stand behind. I used to be a customer of cricket and thought they were horrible they are actually probably 100% better than boost could ever be not that I would ever go back to them but just saying. They also have my address wrong I'm 57 years old they had my birthday as July 16th the 2002, which would make me approximately 20 which would be nice and all but that just goes to show you how they do business. I would not recommend this phone company in any way shape or form. No wonder they have a no wonder they have a star rating of 1.38 I can see why. We have since then changed carriers I do not plan on paying this company not one cent not one penny. Which they actually did shut my phone off one minute after midnight goes to show you where their minds are, they're quick to want their money but they are horrible at giving your money back so again if anybody would like to speak with an attorney that handles this type of situation remember Morgan and Morgan.
These pictures are what I'm posting of what they said my number did not exist it will show my birthday that they said I was born and so forth.
I signed up on July 23. Had to go to a boost mobile store to activate as alone it was impossible. On August 31 service cut off as I was driving to a job interview so no directions, arrived 15 minutes late, did not get the job. Three more trips to the store, 3 new sim cards, still nothing. Went through online customer service no help. Called 1-866 number and the system did not recognize the phone number I brought to them which was tied to my job and security verification. Caught in circular computer loop so presses 0 a dozen times to speak with a human. After 42 minutes was told that I had to call back from a landline. Called back from a landline and after 45 minutes was told to go to a store. Asked for potal pin to leave and was told that was not a possibility so insisted upon transfer to supervisor. After 55 minutes supervisor put me on hold. After 105 minutes, different person came back claiming to have the ability to fix things, After 128 minutes and much insistence was given portal pin and ability to leave boost after weeks of no service and a phone that sometimes worked as a phone but no internet service.
I've had boost mobile for 5 years and now my account is randomly suspended for going over my hotspot? Note i just payed my phone bill. 109$ wasted. And they said they can't do anything.
So I got this email on the 13th of October n my bill wasn't due til the 29th I've called at least 10 times customer service keeps saying your service should be reinstated within 72hrs, still not fixed. I would have had my phone bill money but because I got this email I went shopping n don't have it because I clearly have something in writing saying u can use this credit towards your bill. I'm so upset I will never use boost ever again.
I hate boost. They never have anyone who can help. Or anyone in the United States. They truly are a waste of time! I will not be paying for this $#*!ing $#*!ty $#*! service again!
Your my boost app is worthless. Getting ahold of an actual operator is impossible. $35.00,10 gigs. Other phone companies give fifteen gigs for the same price.
I bought my iPhone out right and informed the store I wanted a mth to mth plan cause I was going to another carrier. They never sale I would be held hostage for a yr with boost until my phone was unlocked. Now I'm stuck with terrible service can't even have a clear FaceTime. Runs outta data fast and terrible reception. If I knew I would have never came to boost I hate this. Free my phone so I can leave and be happy again. Stuck with an exclamation.and a triangle during FaceTime. Never will I spend money with boost again. A 1 is too high for this. You shouldn't be force to stay with a company when you own your phone
My advice don't do long term never thought it would be this bad but it was. Time to wake up and go with another company any suggestions
Was promised for $60.00 a month unlimited 5g added $7.00 a month for insurance so $67.00 a month then throttled hard on video. Was told I could not reboost at store with Walgreens re up pin already purchase was given another 1800 or 1888 number to talk to customer care that was diffrentd than on reboost card from wag.if you just need talk text for $67.00 month this plan is for you.
I have been a BOOST customer for 20+ years. The last 2 months there has been an issue attaching a new Debit card to my autopay. I spent 45 minutes on 3 different calls last month until I finally spoke with a young man that could assist me. Everyone kept telling me it was card that had the problem, well I'm having the same issue again this month. I went into a store to see if they could assist me, unfortunately they had the same issue, they called their CS number and got the same answers. Even spoke with a so called manager (pretty sure it was the same person we were already speaking to) they basically told us there's nothing they can do that I need to call back a day before my due date to add a new card. So I paid at the store where I was charged an additional $4 fee. I will be calling a day before my due date but not to add a new card. Will be shopping around for better service prior to that call.
They cut the use of our phones at night, they saying it's due to high volume use period. We couldn't make emergency use call if the need were to arise heaven forbid if there were a breaking or a fire. All this had arose after we had a conflict with the store owner manager what ever he is. He had threatened us and ever since we've had crappy service. As soon as we can find a new provider we are switching.
I asked to pay for a month ahead of time so I'm ahead of schedule they never put it on my bill kept my money and then charge me for two phone cases when the lady told me that the phone cases were free with the phone will never use this carrier again and will not recommend it to anybody
I went to one of the Boost mobile stores and they sold me on a lot empty promises. The coverage is horrible I can hardly get through a call with out some type interruption weather its a dropped call or just dead spots. I cant call from my house and I live in Bloomington Mn. It has been 3 months of horrible service I could not take it any more. I have been looking for a different carrier and found one that will work period. But Boost mobile will not release my phone that I paid big bucks for. They say you don't have a contract with them and you can leave any time you want. But after paying 375 dollars for phones that work very well they will not release them so I can use them with another carrier. When there service doesn't meet there promises and you need the service you were promised at least the ability to make uninterrupted calls. They should allow you to leave with your phone. After about 6 hours on my home phone with there customer services team because my cell phone doesn't work. They said you need to use there service for 12 months before they will release the phones. I will now have to purchase new phones with a carrier that will work for me and throw out the phones from boost mobile. Be very care full that you don't make the same mistake I did and spend 375 dollars on phones that you can only use for 3 months.
If I could give boost a zero I would. I PURCHASED 4 PHONES FROM BOOST ON OCTOBER 18,2022. THE 2 IPHONE XR THEY CANT GET ACTIVATED. ITS NOW OCTOBER 22,2022 STILL NO PHONES ACTIVATED. I PAID $492 I ASKED FOR REFUND THE MANAGER SCOTT IS A COMPELETE $#*! AND DENIED ME A REFUND. NOW THEY WANT ME TO DOWNGRADE TO IPHONE SE THAT ARE FREE AND THEY WANT GIVE ME THE DIFFERENCE IN PAYMENT THIS IS A $#*! SHOW. AND THEY ARE BASICALLY ROBBING ME AND THEY ARE GETTING AWAY WITH DOING PEOPLE LIKE THIS. SOMEONE NEED TO INVESTIGATE THIS COMPANY THERE ARE SCAMMERS!
This phone is sh**. It keeps deleting apps without permission, with or without the updates. There is a little gremlin inside and he does whatever he wants! I absolutely would not buy this phone EVER AGAIN!
Do not get boost in Minnesota.
They drop calls.
You don't get calls.
The internet is the worse.
There is not a day that goes by that my blood pressure isn't raised due to this phone company.
I've been to the boost store in person many of times to complain.
It's always the same line they give me.
The satellite in the sky is on over drive that's why you have bad service.
I personally would say they do not have enough towers to be in Minnesota.
So much so my local boost store has a eviction notice on the door.
I can't go complain no more.
But I can get a new phone company.
Do not get boost in Minnesota
Answer: I hope so. I want to join. Its not right how they steal money from hardworking people like me.
Answer: You can contact them, but do not bother, they all are trained to act like they know what they are doing but in reality they DO NOT CARE!
Answer: They are worthless. I would not ever recommend them. While their promotions are legit, their service quality sucks.
Answer: Need to change phone to another PHONE. My phone was stolen
Answer: Metro by Tmobile is definitely a step up from Boost. As with all cell phone companies in the store or on line make sure you check out reviews like You Tube before you purchase.
