“On hold over an hour, only to be disconnected 1 minute after connecting with tech, who did not call me back (had my phone number And a land line!). Got thru second time (long hold time again). Tried everything with tech, only to be told I'd have to purchase a SIM, because mine is a Sprint, and they do not work with them anymore. Been without phone service since May 29th. Now July 19th. The Chat feature simply goes unanswered....just turn it off!! Noticed today, they have reduced their hours. Guess there was no need??????”

“As far as setting up service and receiving my phone everything was very quick. However, I am enrolled in the ACP program and they sent me a free device. I didn't anticipate anything extravagant because you get what you pay for but I did expect it to be more than slightly functional. With no apps downloaded plenty of space available the phone is the equivalent of dial up connection. Opening the pre installed apps takes at least 5 min after you click on it. Like text messaging etc. Picture quality is that of a 2004 flip phone the only thing missing is the black and white snake game.”

“I am with Gen Mobile for over 2 years. They used to be really good. Since the change to TMobile it's the worst service ever. I purchased the 3 month plan and have nothing but trouble. Most of the time it doesn't even get a normal phone call through. It never connects to the internet when I leave the house. I (and others) have checked all the settings. I haven't used ANY data that I paid for all the 3 month. I called several times and nobody picks up the call after more than an hour on hold. The on-hold music is torture. I left a call back number and someone called back the next day to tell me they can't help unless I have another phone to give instructions. I am alone and have no other phone available. When I bother other people to let me use their phone no one picks up again. Never mind they had me buy another phone when they changed to TMOBILE. The phone is just like their service, the WORST ever. I want my money back!!!!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! BAD BAD BAD”

“Won’t respond to email, online chart service doesn’t work, won’t respond to Instagram dms, won’t answer your calls. A terrible, terrible, terrible company. This company will take your money and run. It is a scam and I am disgusted.”

“Terrible Terrible Service!!! Took 13 days to finally receive my phones after having to email them a few times but they sure took my money right away.. Now.. Ive been calling for over 2 hours to activate them and no one answers. Their chat does not work and emails take awhile for them to get back to you. I keep calling and wait for awhile and hang up and call right back and still nothing. And they have really crappy music playing while on hold. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!! Doesnt seem like a good company!!”

“I'm fed up with this company. I came to the USA for an IMPORTANT reason to which I NEED a US phone number. I was told this was the best provider and oh- I WAS FOOLED. I have paid for special shipping in order to receive it in 3 DAYS-4 DAYS. IT'S BEEN OVER A WEEK- IT'S IN CALIFORNIA for partial shipping. I'M IN MISSISSIPPI. What a joke. I have asked for my special delivery to be refunded and an update on my order- they haven't replied. My friend is also in the US with me and we are currently on customer service and have been on hold for so long with the most irritating music. She has also had trouble with the delivery and activation of her sim card. We desperately need our US numbers for work. It's affecting our clients. What would happen if there was an emergency? Pick up and sort it out.”

“Moved to the US from the UK as a young 20 something girl who has never travelled all this way on my own before - desperately needed a phone to be able to call home, call for services out here, and just generally have a working mobile phone that can use should I be in an emergency or in any other need. Two weeks later - yes, two whole weeks - I receive my sim card. So I go online to be able to chat and activate it - well, guess what! Their online chat function does not work. Okay, so ill try put the sim card in and see if I can phone GenMobile to activate it - guess again! I can't make any calls so i cannot activate it! Waiting currently to hear back from the email support team to see if it can be activated there but very disappointed. Shame on you GenMobile for marketing yourself as a provider that cares about its customers, especially those who have travelled from other countries to the US, and letting them down like this. Will never, ever, purchase again from here and will be warning friends who wish to travel to the US.”

“Ive called customer service THREE times and have not been able to reach ANYONE! The first time i choose "receive a call back when its your turn" ...i never received a call. The next time i sat waiting for 38 minutes and NOTHING. The third time which was today i waited a total of 1 hour and 12 min before i hung up. Im trying to get in touch with them to let them know it wouldn't let me choose the "bring your own phone" option...it just wouldn't allow me to press the button on the page. The phone they sent me is SO messed up. The speaker is messed up so if you want to use social media you cant hear ANY videos nor turn your phone on speaker phone when your on the phone.... Next problem is you have to keep it on the charger almost all the time. When you take it off the charger it goes dead within a hour and on top of that it freezes ALL the time and you have to take the battery out and turn it back on. PLEASE SOMEONE ANSWER MY CALLS OR CALL ME! I dont want to put my number on a REVIEW but my email is rebeccagarbler@gmail.com . This is ridiculous.”

“I was sent a phone without a SIM card not in box nor in phone. Customer service sucks. Customer service rep was useless to me. They refuse to assist me with my problem. Tell me there was a SIM card sent there wasn't. I don't recommend this company at all.”

“Ordered two phones and two plans. received one phone. said it would take another week or so to get second phone. Seriously? Then tried to activate 1st phone, no sim card which was supposed to have been installed. Now waiting for credit on one phone and two plans. their back office is terrible. long delays, can't verify anything. Comedy of errors.”

“Terrible customer service. Can't even say if and when a shipment was actually shipped. USPS says waiting for package and that was a week ago. Not even willing to call USPS to find out status. I paid for expedited shipping. Very disappointing.”
