@Consumer_Cell They've been EXTREMELY GENEROUS with their DATA PLANS, and I really am feeling bad that because of my financial situation i was approved for a FREE plan and almost feel like turning down the free plan to stay with Consumer Cellular. Unfortunately I don't have an income,but much๐

@Consumer_Cell has been THE BEST of ANY service provider I have tried and I've tried just about ALL of them. They have the best prices hands down, their website is extremely user friendly and contains any and all usage/stats data freely available in easy to understand formats.

@Consumer_Cell A woman from corporate responded to my BBB complaint. Like everyone I spoke with, she was very respectful & apologetic. She had the ability to issue me the credit. THANK YOU. If I could have been transferred to her this morning it would have all been solved right away.

@Consumer_Cell @TMobile @grandpad_social I have followed up at least a dozen times since Friday. I was promised a @TMobile sim card to see if that would fix it. Then a @Consumer_Cell leadership member rescinded that offer. That is terrible customer service, especially after learning that it's a known issue.

@Consumer_Cell @ATT @BBBureau @TMobile 10+ hrs of support in 3 days & still no better off than b4. I shouldn't've had to waste that much time, especially when you know the problem is compatibility btwn Grandpad & @ATT & it affects all users. Customers pay the bill anyway even tho you know the issue.

.@Consumer_Cell were blaming AT&T for the issue but come to find out, they know there's an issue with Grandpad compatibility on @ATT network. That seems like something the @BBBureau should look into since they haven't done thing one to actually address the problem in over a year.

@Consumer_Cell @FreiermanS This shutting down of the customer service line is straight up insane. The one thing I've never once worried about with your company is getting a good, competent, live person on the line quickly when I need.
Now the line tells me to call back tomorrow and hangs up??? Insane.

Is anyone else having issues with 4G phones not being able to send or receive calls/texts because of @ATT towers? I'm very disappointed that @Consumer_Cell cannot provide a timeframe for resolution of this issue. Customers are expected to just wait for a signalโfor days or weeks?
