“I've been a Genmobile customer for a few years. Communication with them was a bit strange but the phone service worked fine for $20/month. Then they told me I would have to get a new phone to stay with their service. So let me get this right. A company that attracts customers by their low cost is now requiring their customers to get new phones???? Talk about a bipolar business model! Some executive will get a few million dollar bonus for causing an exodus of customers. They keep rejecting the request to port my phone number to the new carrier.”

Hi Alex, Unfortunately, the CDMA network is being retired across the country. Your CDMA phone cannot be used on our newer and faster 5G/4G network. We are very sorry for the inconvenience that this has caused you. Please reach out at (833) 528-1380 so we can assist you with moving to our faster, upgraded network. Sincerely, Gen Mobile Customer Care

“Worst service ever!!! Paid for 3 months of the $15 service that include international plan. Two months service has been down. Called about every 2 day for update. Get same answer every time, still working on the problem. Was promise refund for a month and no refund yet. Like to talk to the highest person at the company. Going to report to the BBB”

“AGGRAVATING!!!!Already a Gen Mobile customer . I needed a new phone. Checked compatibility before purchase . Ordered new Sim card. Wanted to Port old number. I thought it would or shpuld be a seamless transfer. WRONG! Already no service for over 2 days, Phone not recognizing the Sim card. Keep telling me to remove card. Reboot . Try this and that already for 2nd ,3rd, and 4th times Now I am told I need to wait another 2 days for them to continue to trouble shoot. Other carriers you can walk in to their store and walk out with a working phone . SO WHAT TAKES 4 DAYS ?? Mean while I am cut off from calls and receiving important calls I was expecting. I encountered a multitute of issues when I transferred to Gen Mobile 2 years ago for over 3 days. They really need to fix these transferring issues .”

“I was satisfied with GenMobile until I needed technical support and they just didn't perform. I have been waiting over a week for a phone number transfer and am still waiting. Totally unacceptable. I would not recommend GenMobile because they don't take care of their customers.”

“bad customer service, agents do not have sufficient knowledge of of the job. They hang up on you when you ask a question they do not have an answer or do not know. Your credits disappear without an explanation, what's goin on?”

“Really good costumer service ! The only main issue I had with this line is that group texts stopped working when I ran out of data, even if I was connected to a wifi. Customer service wasn't able to help me with that. Everything else is great. Greatest deal I've found so far for international calls.”

Hi Kelly, Thank you for your feedback. With regard to your issue with group messages not working on WiFi, please try the following steps to receive group SMS messages when you are out of data: 1. Make sure iMessage is turned off in your Messages setting. Send as SMS, MMS Messaging, and Group Messaging should be turned on. 2. You may need to delete the thread and start a new one in order for the other iphone and android devices to recognize that it needs to send you an SMS. 3. Here is an article which explains the difference between Group iMessage, Group MMS and Group SMS. You need data in order to receive Group iMessages and MMS. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202724 I hope this helps. You can also purchase additional data on our Gen Care app or online https://www.genmobile.com/pages/easypay. Sincerely, The Gen Mobile Care Team
