      My husband and I went to update my ******* Galaxy cell phone on4/7/25. I updated mine and my husband bought a new phone. The manager, *****, explained to us that if we bought those new phones, we were given the wrist watch for only $5 ***** did not give me a receipt that night. Next week, on 4/14, I went to the store to get my receipt. The wrist watches were not $5. My husband wrist watch was $281, mine $374.

      Hi *********,
      Thank you for contacting us through the BBB, I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. After conducting further research, we have confirmed the details of the promotional credits for your Galaxy watches.
      The Galaxy watch 7, associated with the line ending in #****,was quoted a $170 Buy More Save More promotional credit. This credit is indeed being applied to this line. Similarly, the Galaxy watch FE, linked to the line ending in #****, was quoted a $250 Buy More Save More promotional credit, which is also being applied correctly.
      These promotional credits are distributed throughout the duration of each line's device agreement with ******* and are applied as recurring credits towards the monthly device payments. Below is a breakdown of each line's monthly device payment after the promotional credit has been factored in:
      Line #****: Monthly device payment: $10.38 - $4.72 promotional credit = $5.66 new monthly device payment while the promotion is attached.
      Line #****: Monthly device payment: $7.80 - $6.94 promotional credit = $0.86 new monthly device payment while the promotion is attached.
      If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to email us at ********************************** We are here to help!

      I bought a 9th generation ipad at the ******* Victra store in ******, ** on 5/29/2024. I also bought other services at the same time. Since the price of the ipad was such a good price (under $100) I decided to buy the ipad. I did not receive an itemized bill. I paid total bill using my debit card. I tried to return the ipad soon after I bought because I regretted my decision to buy. But the vendor would not accept the return. ******* Corporate will not let me return the ipad. I have never used the ipad. It is still in its original package.Complaint: According to ******* customer service, the vendor charged me $1 for the ipad and $11.90 per month, until I paid the total amount of $637.21 for the ipad. I did not agree to this. I already paid in full for the ipad according to our oral agreement on 5/29/2024. Since I haven't paid their bill of $637.21, now they think I should pay them $726.11 as of April, 2025.I have all my billing information from *******, which is quite confusing. I don't know how to attach the billing information. I will be happy to send these documents by mail if needed.

      Domineke D told me I was paying activation fees and sales taxes when I bought 4 phones with him for $500. That was a lie. Later I noticed they were actually set up and go fees. 1) He never disclosed these fees ahead of time 2) He didnt set up any of the phones. When I came back to the store to confront him he claimed he waived the activation fees to make up for it. Now Ive learned thats another lie. Im still getting charged by ******* on my next bill for $160 for activation fees. Liars crooks and scam artists work here. Go anywhere else. Just took another look at the receipt and noticed another scam charge $10 per phone Remaining Phone Balance . $200 in scam charges in total.

      On February 8th, 2025, I went into a ******* wireless authorized retailer to open my business account. Upon approval I told the *** I would like 4 lines for two ipad 12s 1 TB and two iphone 16 pro max. The *** tells me he doesn't have those devices in store, but he could run to the the *********** location to get them. I had told him that I could just order them online and have them shipped to me. He then said if he closed it now it would freeze/lock my application. He also stated in order to start the account he had to put Ipad 10th gen onto each line. Once he gets the actual devices I want then he would exchange them out. So, he proceeds, I then pay the taxes on the four devices. Initially I was going to leave the devices since he was just going to swap them out, but I was getting shady vibes. I never received a phone call. The next morning, I went back into the store to return the devices and cancel the account. Before leaving the store, the manger makes a remark saying "leave the account open". At that time I did not know he was referring to my account that I had just asked him to close. I then go to a corporate *******. Once there, I was told that my account was frozen. was told to give it up to 48 hours, it could be from the return and cancellation I just did. I was told that she couldn't give me a reason, she just sees that it was flagged and I'm not able to open a business account with *******. Today April 7TH I open an email saying that I owe ******* $400 for service dating back in Feb. Blew my mind because the last thing I was told was that I was not able to have a business account. I received my refund from the return on Feb 12th. Not only is this negatively affecting my business credit, Its also affecting my actual business. Along with this complaint, a police ***ort has been filed against the location.

      I went into the ***********, AL store at 10am on 4/2/2025 to pick up a phone I had ordered online. The guy that was working was on the phone and as soon as I walked in looked at me as if I was inconveniencing him. Then as he supposed to be helping me he answers his phone again to tell someone he needs to call them back. There was zero customer service put forward by this guy. I asked about the trade in I had submitted with ******* and he proceeds to say that's through ******* and how I should've come to the store cause "you just gave someone in ********* $1.50". First, how I choose to upgrade my phone is none of his business. Second, he could've just been polite about it.Finally, throughout the entire interaction it felt hostile and very comfortable. Almost like I was putting him out being there.

      My wife purchased new phones for our family. They charged us twice for brand new phones. They were made aware that day our account was debited twice. ****** claimed the charge would fall off a midnight which it did not. She messaged and called all day and he never responded. She went up there before they closed (Clio) and he claimed he was busy and stated the charge was pending which is a crock being that a debit transaction is taken instantly. She asked for a refund and he claimed it couldn't be done and that we now have to contact corporate despite this place taking $2200 from our bank. I emailed Mr. **** multiple times and he will not respond. This does constitute theft and we will treat it as such if our money isn't returned.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      It took 3 weeks and me writing the BBB complaint before this company did anything. I sent 3 emails to their employee with zero response after he took my money. For anyone reading this, please take notes before doing business with their facility. And be forewarned, Victra is not advertised on their outside display, they fool you by appearing to be a direct ******* outlet...This cost me excess time, money and stress...We went to the store multiple times yet because you "Eventually" returned my money you think this is acceptable? This is disturbing you people think you can just reply and return money as it benefits you. You can pay my next phone bill for the ignorance displayed by your staff and upper level management.

      I went to the local ******* Victra store to get a new phone for my partner who has ALS. He was told he needed a newer phone to do voice banking. There was a promotion going on at the time get a new iPhone 15 on us. I was told by the person working with us that by **** would not change by more than $5/month. Nothing was mentioned about changing the plan. My next bill was well over $300. I was told the next bill would come down which it did to just below $300. Since I received this free phone, my bill has been about $50/ month more than it was. I went back on 2/25 and was told by the person working with me that I wasnt credited properly. She called someone and was told that I would get a credit on my next bill for everything I overpaid and that bill would probably be close to $0. I did reluctantly sign up for automatic draft to save $20/month. I just got a bill that was $265. I was credited $20 for signing up for automatic draft but thats it. No one seems to care that I was told one thing and it was not true. I called the *******.Victra customer service number to speak with a supervisor. I was told that he was busy and I would get a call back which hasnt occurred yet and it has been two days since I was told that I would get a call. Basically there has been NO customer service and I was lied to about the free phone. It seems that long-standing customers (Ive been with them 25 years) are punished while new customers are given great deals.
