Avoid this store at all costs. Go to Verizon instead. Verizon was super helpful. I went to this store to buy liquid gold as a screen protector for my new phone. Was told they no longer have it. The guy recommended the glass screen protector instead. Fine. As I was putting my phone in my purse which was sitting on the floor I missed the pocket. It fell 2 inches to the floor. When I got a case to put on my phone 20 minutes later I noticed the screen protector was shattered. Proceeded to go back to US Cellular and was informed to send it in under warranty and they'd send me a new one. When I went to Verizon I was told it should have been marked as defective and sent back to the company and my money should have been refunded. SKIP THIS STORE AND GO TO VERIZON. This store has horrible customer service!!!! read more

About four years ago I walked into this store to set up new phone service, and the guy that assisted me set me up with the wrong plan (after trying to up-sell me by lying). I went in a few days later when I realized the error and was told that I had to come back again when he was scheduled to work. I did so a day or two later. He did change the plan to the correct one, but not before trying to up-sell me again. I can't prove it, but I am nothing short of positive he did it on purpose based on his demeanor and response when told what happened. I made the mistake of not calling him out on it right then and there, but I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. However, since I was getting a prepaid plan and the original plan he gave me was a postpaid plan, a new account had to be created. Instead of closing the original account, he just made the new one and a month later I get a huge bill for old one. When I asked about it, I was told that the account would be zeroed out and closed, but that it might take a month or so, so I should just disregard any future bills. Which is exactly what I did when I got the next bill a month later. A month after that, the bills stopped coming so I assumed the account had finally been closed. A couple months after that, I get a notice from a debt collector for it, and when telling the debt collector that it was a fraudulent debt, they reached out to US Cellular for "proof of debt", and all I received was a copy of the original invoice. I reached out to US Cellular, but all they told me is that once it goes to collection it's out of their hands. For months afterward, I received multiple calls daily from the debt collector and additional notices threatening to report me to the credit bureaus. Fortunately it never appeared on my credit, but just today I received another notice from a different collection agency for the same thing. I have wasted at least two hours this evening calling the US Cellular store where I initially set up service, calling US Cellular customer service, and chatting with US Cellular customer service online. I have been transferred, put on hold, told I would be called back but wasn't, and just given the runaround. All I've gotten is "you need to talk to someone else" and they give me a number and tell me that it's the "dedicated Fraud debt reporting" number, or the "Financial Services" direct number, but it's just the regular customer service number which is almost completely automated. When I did get through to a human, all I was told is that it's my problem and there is nothing anyone can do since it's already gone to collections. US Cellular, if this goes on my credit report: watch out. read more
