1 star is 1 too many
1 star is 1 too many! I used them for cell phone service and it was fine. I had internet service with another company and had problems with them so I went to US Cellular since I did not have troubles with them and my cell service. Boy was that a mistake. I went to the store and the girl told me it was $39.99 a month because of the promotion. Great! I signed the papers and she sent me home with equipment to set up myself (not happy about that but, okay). I began my service on 12/30/22. My first bill came and it was fine. Then as time went on every bill was higher and higher. I'm talking double and triple the amount! Then my internet started buffering towards the end of the month. I called and they told me I used up all my gigabytes (or whatever it is). I wasn't using my internet anymore than at the beginning...but okay. I went to the store and the associate could not figure out the problem. After a half hour with him, he got the manager over and she said that I could not get any more data in my area. Her solution was to turn off my phone when I wasn't using it!! Huh?? And she said I needed to call the 800 #. I did and they told me I can't get any more data, so I said I will have to go to another company. When I went to cancel they told me I owed $350! For what?? Equipment charge was $12.50 a month for 36 months. I had no idea what they were talking about. NEVER did the girl tell me I would be paying $450 for equipment that I had to install. I even asked her if it was just the payments of $39.99 a month...YES, M'AM...she said. I would never have gotten it if I was told about a $450 fee of any kind. When talking to a supervisor later, telling her how they are scamming people, one of her responses was, every company does this. I had 15 days from purchase to return the equipment but the charges did not start on my bill until 22 days after I had it! Now I have to pay the $350 because I did sign the sneaky contract but I want everyone to know how awful they are.
