How to get rid of things I have never subscribe to!?? - General Topics

Come ON.. i know someone has to know how to get rid of this.. Everyone here is pretty smart.. well except me lol.. thanks please help.
Ok.. first i get charged $14.99.. for some stupid **** i didnt subscribe to.. where did it come from IDK!!
I DONT REMEMBER THE NAME OF THIS ONE..
But then i got a little code number to that thing and send STOP.. and it stopped charging me.. OK...
But then i just got this new bill.. now they are charging me another stupid thing for $9.99..!! its this one is called Jumpah Alerts Weather alerts..!!
Wth??? i never did this!!
I AM WITH SPRINT.. I have the HTC EVO..
CAN SOMEONE SHOW ME OR TELL ME HOW TO GET RID OF THIS THINGS??? PLEASE!! THANKS!

That happened to me once, on AT&T. The bill told me I could send a STOP text to a certain 4 or 5 digit number and I did and I ceased to be billed next month. Sucks that it happens but it does. I never sign up for crap like that.

At 4pm on the 25th of every month I get a text message offering the chance to win £1,000 in a FREE quiz and get charged £1.50 to receive it. I have never subscribed to anything so I do not know where they got my number from.
Every month when I get my bill I ring Vodafone and complain and they credit me with the £1.50
One VF that I spoke to told me NOT to text back to cancel as that would tell them that it was a live line and I would get plagued with more of them

It sounds to me like you've wound yourself up in a "spam trap" -- you need to call your local business authority (in the States known as Attorney General) and ask them how you can stop these messages that cost you money. I will warn you though, they will probably tell you just to change your number -- however they will want to take an official record on your behalf of the numbers that are bothering you. You will not have to go to court, but the AG will most likely take some sort of legal action. These "subscription" texters are pretty clever and sending them a "stop" message sometimes can get your number sold to other "subscriptions". I'd ask your carriers if they can change your number and waive the fee (most carriers will if the reason is harassment, which this definitely is). Of course, you'll have to send your friends your new number, but it definitely gives you the advantage of being able to weed out people you don't want to talk to...

I got it resolved.. a tech from sprint helped me.. n he called for me to block THE PREMIUM MESSEGES.. n this bill i didnt get that extra fee from the spam

So i've been getting calls from this number for a while. they call maybe once every 2 or 3 months. I answer and its a recorded message saying my auto warranty is about to expire and asks me to press 1 to speak to a customer representative. I know its spam and usually hang up. But today was a different. I pressed one and felt like having fun.
Spammer:Whats the make and model of your vehicle (without saying hi or anything.)
ME: 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo (bull****)
Spammer:How many miles?
ME: 21,000
Spammer: How much would you sell it?
ME: Now why the f*#& would i sell it?
Spammer: Cuz i wanna buy it! (really aggressively)
ME: How about you suck my D*#*!!!
Spammer: How about your dad sucks your D$*( !!!
and he hung up... i'm dying for this prick to call back, from now on i'm answering and just gonna mess with them.
I googled the number and theres a lot of websites about these scammers.
The point of this post? No clue! i guess to inform everyone about these guys and just dont give them any info! and please mess with them.
You should be careful. I remeber hearing about a scam on GMTV, whereby as soon as you 'press 1' or whatever, it reverses the charges of the phone call and charges you at a premium rate.

I started getting a lot of spam calls over the last month, especially after I signed up on the Do Not Call List!?
So I got turned on the YouMail.com where you replace your current voicemail with a really cool one. I added numbers with some nasty responses for certain numbers depending if its a machine or a life person.
And now I do not want my windshield repaired for the 300s time....
Check it out its really cool and free and people generally don't call you back anymore...

SPAM SMS from 702-524-6740

USA phone number sent me a text saying:
"Do you owe more than $10,000 to the IRS or state? Our tax experts can possibly REDUCE or ELIMINATE your back taxes. Reply HELP to see if you qualify!"
7025246740
I don't put my number online, so unless there's a clause I've been overlooking when downloading apps from Windows Mobile Marketplace or Android Market that they can sell your phone number, I don't know how my info got out. Not comfortable with this, had my phone for 8 years, only once before have I ever gotten a spam message.
I went aheaded and reported it on http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-702-524-6740 - can anyone find any details about this, what I might have done that caused me to get on someone's list?
I've already added this number to my Sprint blocked SMS list (the only number on my list!).
-NuAngel
I got them too, usually ones saying "Thanks for your participation to claim your $200 giftcard visit www.xxxxx.com To stop futher texts reply STOP". The area codes were from Chicago.
I got quite a few. They vary from website or rewards offered, I wonder how they got my number. I was asking my friends if they put my number on any websites. The only site that has my number is facebook (and I only add people I know), so that might be how these people might be getting these numbers.
I always replied "stop", and the past week I havent had any since. Id be pissed if I didnt have texting in my plan and I was getting charged to be spammed.

Take it down. Doesnt matter if you only add people you know. Facebook is a clusterfuck when it comes to privacy settings.

I got the same junk SMS today, and I don't put my cell number online. I am not going to reply STOP, because that may do more harm than good. Thanks for the link to report the SMS, and good reminder that you can block SMS at Sprint.

[Q] Charged for a "Free" phone

Hey guys,
About a month ago (Jan 20 I seem to recall) T-Mobile had an offer where you could get a free upgrade to a G2, only on their website.
My family had three G1s on our plan that were past due for an upgrade, since December, so we jumped at this offer.
We couldn't get the site to work, however, so we called in and a representative assured us that we would be able to get the three phones for free. We would have to call back the next day to do so, though.
After calling back the next day, we received another representative who told us that the offer was an error and shouldn't have been put online. Our response was simple- That's your problem, we agreed with the other representative in good faith and we should not have to pay for an error on your end.
After waiting about a week for that other representative to look at the call logs (which he never found, by the way), he called back and told us that since we've been waiting for so long and he never found the logs, we could have all three phones for free. We already knew there was an upgrade fee of $18 that we would have to pay, that's fine.
Now, a month later, on our bill we have three charges of "One Time charge for Handset Upgrade Revenue" that amount to $199.00 each. That makes our total bill for this month a whopping $1000.
This is far from "free" that we were promised. I am hoping it's a mistake on their end, but if I call them up and they start throwing in all of these excuses and explanations for why a "free" phone isn't free, is there some sort of agency for Customer Fair Treatment or something that we can report them to, or is there legal action that we can take?
Please, if you have any other advice or tips, it is greatly welcomed.
Hope to hear a response.

Sorry to hear about this. I've had a few issues with tmobile in the past 5 years i've been a customer, they've always been pretty good about resolving things to my satisfaction. I'd suggest a few things:
-If you have a twitter account, tweet something about your problem to @tmobile. It might not sound like much, but tmobile has some very active people working on twitter. When i had an issue around a year ago with my minutes and texts vanishing without being used, a tweet was really all it took to get the ball rolling. I got a direct message back within an hour, and recived a call the next day to let me know the glitch was fixed and offered me compensation.
-The Consumeris (consumerist.com) is a consumer advocacy blog. I've seen lots of stories on there similar to what you're dealing with (many from other providers too). From the stories i've read companies such as tmobile pay close enough attention to the site, and are quick to resolve any kind of issues that could result in bad press.
-If all else fails, last i checked tmobile offers a buyers remorse period of 30 days (might be less), if you arent happy with your phone for any reason, you can return it within that time.
I'd reccomend calling them and telling them if the issue can not be fixed you would like to return the phones. Another thing to maybe metion, if you where up for new phones, then your contract must have also been renewed, perhaps this could be considered a breach of contract on their part and you could mention that in a way that suggests you're thinking of ditching your contract over this (just say something like "verizon has the same deal in store").
Hope some of that helps. Good luck!
Honestly, if they can't fix the issue, tell them you want to be transfered to the loyalty department because you want to cancel. Those guys can fix anything. If you still aren't happy, file a claim with the better business bureau.

Agreed, call customer service and get with the "omgtheyregoingtocancelwtf" department and they will likely fix it. That or give the phones back. If they made a mistake they made a mistake, it doesn't entitle you to anything... if they are willing to fix it and let you keep them, then awesome.
More importantly though...

File complaints with both the BBB and FCC. I had an issue with Sprint not honoring a discount coupon I used when I signed up and kept getting the runaround, but a BBB and FCC complaint led to someone higher up to contact me and get the matter resolved. Based on some google searching, it does appear T-Mobile responds to FCC complaints.

Interesting... I don't think the buyers' remorse thing would work, cause we have had the phones for over 30 days... and offering to give them back would be bad on our end because honestly, we love these new phones!
But yeah, the breach of contract you mentioned is a good point. We renewed our contracts so that we could get these phones, and if they take the phones back yet keep us locked in contract, I'm certain that the groups mentioned by the other posts (BBB and FCC) could help us out.

That Does make it look like less, haha. To clarify-
$199 x 3 = 600.00
+ 120.00 tax
+ 250.00 phone bill
+ 18.00 upgrade fee x 3
plus various charges
= $1000

Thank you very much. I hope either or both of these can help if the situation turns into something nasty.
I have to harass them to make sure they apply discounts or whatever, and they tried to wiggle out of my student discount when I activated my line...
Ah well. They're almost half the price of Verizon and my service is pretty good here.
We just called T-Mobile and a representative confirmed it was a mistake and dropped the charges.
We still have to wait until the next billing cycle to see for sure, but I think this has been resolved.
Thank you all for your advice and replies.
Best,

uppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
yeah ://....happened to me a couple of times there..

What would you do if you were sent 2 g2xs for replacement instead of 1? :/

Ok I got a freezing g2x monday as a new web online purchase. I then called this morning to get a exchange and they wanted to charge me and blah blah it was a hassle. Took two hours for them to finally agree to give me a new phone, not refurbished, no fees and overnight shipping. Except his boss was out and he needed him to sign off on it.
Well anyways, once before I had a replacement not get ordered so now I check my **** 5 hours later. Well, I called back and got this lovely rep, she didn't see the new order and I said, "well the gentleman that helped me before had to wait on his supervisor to sign off and maybe that's why you don't see it yet?" She then just kinda kept blabbing and said, "Well, ill make sure ones ordered right now so we know, Ill get you a confirmation number as well". I said "thanks".
Well I checked my emails about a half hour later for the confirmation email and there was 2 order numbers. One at 2:03 pm and another at 2:28. I figured well ****. I read before where this happened but forgot what they did. I also got ups tracking numbers for each one. So Im assuming 2 are on there way.
So if they send 2 what do I do? Well I was majorly jacked around today and have spent many many dollars to tmobile. LOL SO im thinking sounds fair. I mean how can they know and charge me? they both were free and say free on the order page, and they only need 1 device back right?
So im thinking about keeping them both, and selling one. I just got a photo radar ticket and could use the 300 bucks for that.. lmfaoooo
SO, I think If there's no way for them to tell, and I get two, (PRAY) and they only need one back. HOW CAN I GO WRONG?
WHAT WOULD YOU DO WWYD? lol
Yikes not this type of thread again. Massive debate

if it's in their system that they sent you 2 they'll know and will probably ask you eventually
Personally, I think its morally wrong, but if you're in desperate need of the money, say you only received one...
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
If I knew there was no possible way they would know they sent me two than I would do what any working man in this type of economy would do. SELL ONE!
Chances are their system knows you have two so I would just call them and let them know. Or call and beat around the bush. Ask vague questions to see if they know you have two.
I know there is going to be some people on here calling ne immoral but o well. Unless you've never done anything wrong in your life than your just preaching to the choir.

If its not in their system that they sent two I'd keep it. No shame in my game.
I agree with the majority. Times are hard and T-Mobile screwed us over with the G2x by offering most of us a myTouch 4g or a G2 as a replacement. Do what you gotta do!

Ok so why would they check my system? And just look for a issue?
I don't see them finding out even with it in the system.... cause what's that mean? Ok in there system? How do they go, oh woops we accidently sent him two. Hell they barely know anything ....
Even if in system how will it get back to me when they get a original back...?
Tmobile.com doesnt even show any order placed... They did it directly through the loyalty department and telesales...
If they get there phone back and there not charging for either, why would they hassle me?
I get there system could show they sent me two, but if they don't catch it now, why would they later? And why would they just search my account going huh? Lol especially if I lay low and not call em...
I'm gonna take my chances and play dumb if they find out... not my fault, hell maybe they told me they were sending me a free one for my troubles? Lol
EDIT: Hell if anything ill just hold onto it for a bit and see if they catch it within a couple weeks. If not, I should be good. If so, Ill just send back.
MEH, I think if this is their fubar. I just play stupid. HUH, I have 2 lines with g2xs, I thought they were sending 2. lol
also, wouldnt it be better their both in their system? instead of 1 not being in it? cause then that phone disappears and now its got to be tracked and theres a signature? Where as this way, its accounted for, and not missing. Its delivered?
I dont know. I think Im gonna hang onto it for about a month and see what they do. I just dont see how they can make 2 orders send them, get the phone back they wanted and still catch it. If 2 was just sent with only 1 order, that IMO sounds worse.
Like Jw had happen, Tmobile told him to keep his G2x when he got a sensation also. Maybe they sent me 2 for my troubles hell. Like I said, maybe I said I even called and they told me dont worry about it and just keep it. Now im being charged?
Tmobile and their notes are so all over the place I think I could even get out of it If I needed too.
WHO knows.
IF both phones are on a separate order, and both are delivered, and the defective one gets back. Wheres there a issue to them? like I said they dont know what a rep did for me. The last rep could have hooked me up. Like they did JW
If you got tracking numbers for both, they will know for sure you received two. Not worth the risk of you selling it only to have tmobile suddenly slap an over 200 bill in your account.

again. how would they even go about finding out? both phones are sent, delivered. Paid. Dont see how they could charge me later.
My point is, ok, they see 2 orders. Now what? and who sees it? Is there a person just randomly looking at accounts for weirdness?
I just dont see the scenario where they all the sudden just randomly audit my account and go hmmmm . Why are there 2 phones sent.
BOTH PAID, sent, Delivered. Now bam its just notes in the past now. They get the phone back they wanted. HOW CAN THEY TELL? ya the notes or online will show 2 phones sent, but again, bills and etc are computer automated generated. So if it shows no charges. HOW CAN I BE BILLED?
I can see if I paid 249 for one. Got sent two and was like ****. the paperwork also says 249. THEY BOTH Say PAID.
SCENARIO: rep just randomly looks, sees 2 phones, and just sends me a bill? The phone is out of their hands.
If two have been sent separately then each is going to have its own RMA number. If that RMA number is not scanned in by T-Mobile's receiving department then in all likelihood your account will be hit with an unreturned item fee.
So in order to avoid a lot of unnecessary hassle with your account you need to call them and tell them what happened. They will then tell you to either refuse one or which package to use for your original phone and which one to use for the extra.
Ideally it'd be nice to receive both and test each to see which is the least problematic (I just don't have faith that any G2X is actually fully reliable) and then return the buggiest. However you only have a one week before they'll tack on that unreturned item fee, and while I'm sure they'll refund it once they get the phone, it's just more work for you.

No I dont think thats true. Cause the phone Im replacing now, which was brand new, came with a RA number/sticker and I didnt have to send anything back. So, if they didnt get anything back but sent a RA number, why didnt they charge me?
Also the new phones are coming just like this. NEW, not exchanges. So, just like this one I have now, With the RA number, Ill keep one, just set it aside for a bit and see what happens, and then the other one ill send my replacement back.
I see what your getting at with the RA number but again, my new device had one also and it needed no return. So I dont think the new package would be treated any different.
EDIT: so, again ill cover my tail. Not open the box just hold onto it. Then if charged or issues Ill just return it. They will credit my account back. Ill just say I forgot about it, been very busy and should have returned it. Give it till next billing cycle and if Im in the clear. Do what I need with it. You would think that if they will find out after the fact. They would have found out before they were sent. I mean, same time within 20 mins of each other, they couldnt figure that out, but yet they will figure out after the fact? MEH call me a believer but I think Im golden.
I wish i could get sent 2 that way i could hold up the wobbly legs of my table on both sides.

After I received my replacement I sat on it a few days before doing anything with it and waited 6 days before returning the original and then 1 week to the day from which I received it I got a text from T-Mobile kindly reminding me to return it. No charge was put on my account as they received it that day or the next.
Just because there was an RMA sticker with your first doesn't mean anything. In the fulfillment department they would probably scan the box they are shipping you and enter it as a new or replacement device. If it's a replacement then there is a timed event placed in their database set up to activate on the RMA sticker that is being sent to you. If it is not scanned within a certain period you'll be charged.
This is an automated event. No one is sitting around looking at people's accounts to determine if something is expected from them.
You can play dumb and try and pretend that you didn't receive it, although I received e-mails from them telling me my phone had been delivered, so they are tracking it. You'll know within 1-2 weeks whether or not they are expecting two phones returned from you. If you try to rip off T-Mobile just wait before doing anything with the spare phone.

Yea, sounds like maybe they could know in that mannor, but, will see. Hopefully they are sent as new devices and not a replacement. Ill do my research up till then and see whats up. Ill definitely See whats up but your post made good sense. THis is why I made the thread. To see which actually happens..
EDIT: the way they had to do the exchange/new phone was like just having a new order. Not replacement. cause of some loop hole. So maybe since the had to do it that way they wont have the replacement RA number. WHO knows. LOL
but interesting and Im gonna play a lil
also, i just remembered that I before have gotten order placed/ replacement placed texts also. Ive yet to receive these. I think because were going around the usual way to get me the phone. So I dont know. cause even online under recent order info on MYTMOBILE.COM it doesnt show any orders placed either. VERY strange.
even when I call 611 it doesnt have any info on orders. It just says my old order that was already shipped that im replacing. GONNA KEEP A EYE ON THAT. I think the way they had to loop around may help
If you are a thief, you are a thief. If you are a honest good person, you are a honest good person. This should not be a difficult decision.
If I can screw you out of a few hundred bucks, should I? Based on many responses I should rip you off for all I can.
Give them 60-90 days from when they shipped you the phones. after that, they don't have a leg to stand on. (this is of course unless they contact you about it prior to 90 days)

lol I love your response. HEHE Make me sound like a theif and if I do this im no good. LMFAOOO. that said. Im doing it. Hmmmm I think like this. Ive spent hours of time fighting just for a replacement. Bought a g2x full price, vibrant full price, sensation for 300 and had it replaced like crazy in which they also forgot once to send a replacement so I waited a week for nothing. Pay 160 a month. Blah blah. So in a year ive spentttt?
about 1300 on phones alone. 160x12= 1,920 dollars. Waiting for mad time for replacements cause they put out crap (sensation) and half the lgs lol. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Im gonna play a lil
ALSO, IF I screwed you over half the time, overcharged you, throttled you for what your paying for, had service shotty, rude customer service, forgot some orders, charged you fees etc. Then yes, BY ALL MEANS PLEASE IF I DROP MY WALLET, take that ***** I deserve it

The Unlock Pros = The Scam Pros
They've done the same thing to me. They got me to send my $900 phone in for IMEI repair after they've screwed it up remotely. They use a UPS Store mailbox as shipping address.
Once they got the phone they started ignoring my emails and phone calls. When I finally got someone with the username "Scott" one their website live chat, he was rude first and later mocked me, called me stupid, dumb and all the f words for asking about my phone.
Never do business with these guys. They are thieves and they continue to steal phones because they assume people won't waste their time and money to sue them for stealing their cell phones. At least that's what the Scott guy told me after insulting me online. Also they think or assume your phone is stolen so you won't do anything if they steal from you.
They do provide the remote unlock and IMEI repair but this is just their way to make their business look legitimate. In reality the look for opportunities to have you ship your phone in. For example they will intentionally screw up the phone then as you to ship it in.
By the way, they will show you a mail label to make you think that they'll ship your phone back to you soon. This is just a trick, Kiss your phone goodbye if you've made the mistake like me to ship your phone to these scammer.
Just so you know(no offense) but to unblacklist means to hack into the phones database. And I feel really sorry for you. Hope you get your money back.

Update:
Exactly like this scumbag told me, Paypal will not refund intangible goods. This pos "merchant ' had bragged to me about that & told me I'd never get my money back.
Paypal did refuse, at first... but they changed their minds after I sent 'em the tape of the guy they gave my money too threatening me and my kids.... (Thank goodness fro rooted phones!) I may have also mentioned that I would report them (paypal) to the Office of the Inspector General for aiding in interstate criminal this and that, extortion, etc etc.
The next day, I got an email saying Paypal had refunded my money from Paypal funds.
They did not take my money back from the Unlock Pros AFIK. The Unlock Pros is one scumbag ripoff artist using Paypal to do it.

I am sorry that you got scammed, and glad you got your money back.
But on THIS site we do not discuss anything to do with IMEI changing for any reason, this includes services or hack methods.
Closing this up.
