    I am beyond frustrated with US Cellular and I am not one who falls for promotions where you get…read morelocked into something you don't want or need. Last October I walked into a US Cellular store in Des Moines, Iowa to inquire about switching services from Verizon to US Cellular. The sales associate was very friendly and explained that not only could I save money on my plan but I could trade in my current phone and get a new one. I would pay $23.30/month but receive a promotional credit of $19.95/per month after the first three months for 2 years. I explained that I am in Mexico for several months each year and need cell service there. She told me that I can suspend my service and get a sim card there. So, I was going to save money on my current plan and get a new iPhone for under $100. Everything sounded good, so I agreed. As we were going through the paperwork, she then told me that my phone was not eligible for a trade in because it was an iPhone 6 not 6s but no worry, I would make an initial payment of approximately $100 but could sell my phone to make up for the difference. Sounded good, right? First I noticed that my cell service was MUCH less reliable "in the middle of anywhere and everywhere". I was somewhat surprised when I couldn't get service in Sioux City, Iowa and was shocked when I couldn't get service in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota. I had to turn on roaming to call US Cellular to find out what was going on. The representative told me that they are continuing to expand their cell service coverage. He told me that I could use up to 512mb of data roaming for free. I was NEVER told that I can turn on voice roaming and not get additional charges. Second, after the first three months of payments, I was not seeing my $19.97 credit being applied to my account. I called US Cellular and they said they didn't see a promotion on my account. I had to go to the store to talk to my sales representative. She explained that she would have to do a little finagling to get my credit applied on my account. It took an additional 3 months and multiple phone calls before the credit started being applied. Third, I found out that I can NOT suspend my account under the current promotion unless my phone is stolen or lost. The representative I spoke with implied that I could "lie" about my phone being lost. So I will be paying monthly service for FIVE months while in Mexico without the ability to use my phone. I called US Cellular to see if I can cancel without paying any penalty. They told me that I would have to pay $419.40 for the phone and there was nothing they could do. My statement states that I am available for an early upgrade if I pay $279.60 which I was willing to pay to get out of this. So I went to see my representative at the store to straighten things out. She no longer works there! I talked with another representative who told me there was nothing she could do. Calls to US Cellular customer service and retention department were no help. I was totally mislead and I can't believe that there is NOTHING you can do to alleviate this situation with my having to pay $419.40 and report this to the Better Business Bureau and other agencies. FYI it was the U.S. Cellular located at 3801 Merle Hay Rd in Des Moines. And I will add that the sales associate could only say "sorry" and as I was leaving, I saw the store manager returning from lunch. He would not make eye contact and quickly walked by. Must be used to this.

    update: a few months later, and it seems some changes have been made, most likely completely…read moreunrelated to my poor review. however, despite the loss of actual customer service/repair personnel, the staff has been friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. although they are still busy at times, if you go at whatever the off hours might be, it's a snap to get in and out without killing your day.

    I do like walking into a business and having someone greet me and ask how they can help…read more It's also great to have a cell phone store that has adequate staffing and customers don't have to stand around and wait all afternoon to be acknowledged. I'm not a Verizon customer and the reason I was there was for a deceased family member, but if I decided to change service, I'd go back here.

    I have an iPhone 14, an iPad Pro and home Internet and I signed up for another home Internet…read moreservices yesterday and went to pick it up. when I got there, I told the manager that I had a lot of problems with the last one trying to train the modem to the service at my actual address so I asked if she would do it at the store instead and she claimed that it could not be done. I told her my first modem was programmed right here in this very store, just as im asking you to do now, so I know that is not true but she continued to say she is the manager and that is the protocol. I wasted my whole lunch hour and several hours after trying to do something that Verizon should've just been happy to help me do in the first place. I went to the store to get the help I asked for the first time and the manager tried to give me a phone number and send me off again and I told her if you don't want to help me you can just take this thing back and then she said "that will be fine" because she clearly didn't wanna help. well, it's not fine because you wasted a whole bunch of my time, and didn't try to help me at all when i was trying to prevent abunch of wasted time and then when I got upset about it, she told me that I have to leave or she will call the police. I really cannot believe this happened to me, but if something doesn't get straightened out and she doesn't get reprimanded I am seriously considering canceling my service because there is no way I am going to let my phone company treat me like that.
