We had several different people telling me something different each time I called with a problem or concern. Finally a wonderful lady named Melissa fixed everything. She … understood my concerns and explained everything to me. I even got a new phone at very little cost.

Our monthly bill is supposed to be $60/mo, but over the past 4 months, it has varied between $80 and $140 per month, so very inconsistent. Customer service is not able to give us an explanation for the inconsistencies or a reason why it hasn’t been $60/mo., what we signed up for.
