Verbal abuse
At approximately around 11:10pm I had called Alltel directory assistance for a 1-800 number that was supposedly to be in Main, the assistance operator had transfered me to another rep.concerning the 1-800. number, and it was a female that had took the call for an apparent malicious attack to verbally destroy a customer/consumer, for no apparent reason. When I asked to be connected to the local Authorities in the area that the 1-800. was from she engaged in THE WRONG VOCABULARY with me. She stated the comments of ...REACH FOR ME.., numerous times and stated she was going to destroy my HOLIDAY, . Another mistake. I stated I was going to record her and stated I did and did. I further called back to get her, the number that I WAS CONNECTED TO to have verification to where she was and just so happens I believe it was her again.

Thats the one I got on tape .No its not there on tape.

Over charging and bogus charges
I signed a contract with Alltel for my Son and Daughter-in-law to have cell phone service with Alltel several years ago. The problems started when Alltel started over charging on their statements. Alltel had added bogus charges to their bill that they had no idea what these charges were for. Their phone bill went over 600.00 dollars in September 2008. When I called and asked what these charges were for, Alltel could not tell me anything. Just that the charges were theirs and they had to be paid. I asked Alltel to put a hold on their bill until they could get it paid down some, , the lady from Alltel told me that they would do that. I asked the Alltel representative if any more charges would be added to their account and she told me no more charges would be added. Well, , , in November 2008, my Son's Alltel bill had went up over 1100.00 dollars, even though Alltel had disconnected my Son's cell phone service in September 2008. When I called to try to resolve this mess, I was asking questions about my cell phone account and the Lady from Alltel hung up on me, so I called back and ended up talking to 3 people from Alltel and none of them wanted to talk to me about the account or answer any of my questions. Alltel service representatives acted as if they did not know anything about the cell phone service. Alltel had turned the account over to several collection agencies in November 2008, even though my Son was paying a monthly payment to them all along. My Son was getting 2 seperate bills from 2 different collection agencies and a bill from Alltel every month. He had no idea which one of these companies he should be paying, so he kept sending Alltel payments each month to Alltel. I called Alltel and asked them where the money was going that my Son had been paying and Alltel said they did not know.. So I called the collection agency that had been harassing me and I paid the bill to get those people off of my back. I would suggest that people should stay away from Alltel, because they will definitely over charge you and there is nothing you can do, but pay the bill. I still don't know where my Son's payments to Alltel went. I can only assume Alltel was putting the money in their pockets and not adding the payments to my cell phone account.

Scam and stealing
Alltel is unwilling to help put a stop to identity theft. It seems as if it is a common practice for criminals to use your stolen credit and bank card information to replenish prepaid Alltel accounts. This happened to my husband after he used his card at an Outback restaurant in our area. He phoned the Alltel customer service number and the rep confirmed that the card was used with their company, but he would need to take that up with his bank. While reporting the incident to the bank the teller told him that this was an ongoing problem with Alltel. She said she has personally spoken with Alltel representatives, and they feel as if it is not their problem. How is the bank or the consumer going to stop this action if Alltel will not cooperate and disclose the information on the crooks that are doing this. I am currently an Alltel customer and it is really disheartening to know that I am affiliated with a company that sides with the thieves.

Fraudulent Accounts / Collections
I received a call last night 8-25-08 from someone claiming to represent Alltel Collections. The caller stated that I owed a past due amount of $101.00 on an account that I have never had. The account was supposedly opened in October of 2002. I have never received any statements of accounts past or present from Alltel and find it unfathomable that I would not have been contacted at some point within the six year time span they are claiming. I absolutely dispute the validity of this debt and request documentation to confirm that any such account does in fact exist.

Charges for unmade text messages!
I am being charged for almost 5000 incoming/outgoing text messages over a 30 day period that we did not make!! Alltel does not have any records of the incoming messages nor can they provide a copy of the number to where the alleged outgoing messages were sent. By Alltel's Technical Assistance own records, the most incoming messages ever received over a month's billing cycle for that phone is 7. Their records also show that no replies were made to those incoming messages. Suddenly in December 2007 the messages for that one phone jumped to almost 5000!!!

They will not admit that there is a problem and they are threatening to terminate my service if fI do not pay the bill of over $1100 immediately. Also if service is terminated, they will charge me $200/phone extra for not fulfilling my contract. (I have 3 cell phones.)

They will not let me speak to a supervisor in the Customer Service Department. In fact, one CS rep. claimed that they do not have supervisors!!! The Technical Service Department told me that a supervisor would call me back. (No call back yet!!)

The nature of my work requires that I am available via phone 24 hours per day, no matter where I am. I am at a complete loss as to what recourse I have other than to hire an expensive lawyer. (Which I can't afford.)

What more can I do? Please advise smb!

Thank You,
David E. Channell.

Alltel Wireless is robbing their customers
I have been an alltel customer since 2003 around the 1st of January 2006. We made a trip from South Georgia to Mass. and back (round trip) my billing cycle ended on the 14th and to my shock as i opened my bill and i was charged over 500.00 in roaming charges but i was suppose to be on the national freedom plan where roaming is suppose to be free on that plan so I call alltel with my complaint and i was told they would make the changes to my account and check on the roaming charges so i give it a couple of weeks an called back just to be told that all the roaming calls we made not one hit an alltel tower and there not covered if your call hit someone else's tower you have to pay for those it's only free roaming if you hit an alltel tower. I guess they forgot to tell me that part. So i paid more money for more services for my phone at no extra charge. So i ask the supervisor at alltel customer service did she real want me to believe that not one out of all the calls we made and received on these phones used for our business not one of our calls hit an alltel tower. I told her to come on she wouldn't believe that her self if it was her hard earned money that was footing the bill. So the end result was i say i call in to report being over charge on my bill and when i was finished with my complaint. Alltel came out on top and ended up coasting me more money than it did before i called because they change my bill to what i was supposed to have which cost more money but my free roaming didn't apply because i didn't know a little light on my phone will flash when i have an alltel tower valuable information that i never got told. Then in December 2006 i went into our local radio shack where they setup alltel wireless accounts and in January 2006 we also add two more phones to our account under 2year contracts where in December 2006 i went into radio shack and ask to have them disconnected and was told it was a 200.00 early disconnected fee and told the lady at the counter that it was costing me more than 150.00 a month phone bill on those two phones with no one using them told them would rather pay the 200.00 disconnect charge than keep paying 150.00 per month then I'm told on my second trip back next month to ask again to have those phones turned off then told it's 200.00 per phone which is 400.00 and i agree and tell them to switch the two phones off at radio shack and i saw them call alltel and ask for the request and still March's bill came in and guess what again charged for those phones so i call alltel about the charges with tax and all and no activate one phone was $76.26 and the other was $67.26 which is $146.52 per month bringing the total over charged $439.56 so they tell me there going to give credit for the $49.99 they charged me per phone per month which comes to a total of $299.98 so i ask about the other charges so then she gives me credit for $80.89 and $6.90 so that brought my total credit to $392.69 and I'm still owed 46.93 once again alltel came out on top. And if this wasn't bad enough this is really going to knock you down I was talking with a friend of mine my cell phone bill and when i telling her about how many phones we had and what it was costing us she ask if she could see my bill because she though we where being over charged so i did and she went to saying oh my god oh my god she ask me why where we all up under separate contracts i said were not and she says your husband has 4000 peak min's and pays $149.99 and everyone else is paying $49.99 per month and they get a thousand peak min.'s per phone which brings the total min.'s to 8000 min.'s per month at the cost of $349.95 plus tax then don't forget mr. rescue is $3.00 per month per phone that i never ask for but if you don't call them and tell them to take it off your bill you keep paying for it. And if you are a BIG traveler save your self the money. Then i was hit with the shock of you'll don't have the family plan and i said yes we do and she said no you don't either because the family plan is 9.99 per month per phone and we would all share the 4000 min.'s on my husbands contract and we all where only using around 3000 peak min.'s which is 1000 below my peak min.'s At $149.99 plus 4 phones @ 9.99 which is a total of 189.95 plus tax so i paid $160.00 more every month $1920.00 per year over 4 years $7680.00 so i go to radio shack and they said I needed to call alltel because they couldn't do anything with them. So i did and as the young lady answered the phone i just didn't know quite where to start but that i needed someone to lesson to my concerns and to try and put them self in my place putting alltel aside just one person talking to another person and give me there honest opinion on my situation and she did she told me I had a real mess and she told me if she was me she would try and talk with a supervisor but i could tell in her voice that it would have to be a act of god to get a good turn out so i explained all to the supervisor and you'll never guess what she said after I tell her everything I'm SORRY alltel has robbed me of $9,396.93 that i know of and have found so far. She said i should have noticed my bill better and i told her that i had trusted alltel to take care of there customers as we would take care of ours they say alltel don't stack contracts well i beg to differ i even told the lady that she had my phones cut off for non payment and i have done nothing but stay on the phone with alltel trying to get them to understand they have robbed me of almost $10,000.00 dollars and she informed me they needed 1300 and something dollars to restore service so i answer her in a way to let her know she's lost her mind if she thinks I'm paying alltel anymore of my thousands hard earned money i even told her alltel didn't need my money just to meet me half way that heck i meet them over half way i even suggested wipe the slate clean and start over alltel would still come out on top but i got nothing now you see how much alltel appreciated my business and they appreciate your's just as much as mine i believe somebody has alltel get to big for there britches. My closing comment to this supervisor was did she know how may people my 500.00 in roaming charges could have helped not to count all the rest i paid alltel and i told the lady did she even have a clue how many family's i could have helped with the money they over charged me. And i left her with this If this was a test she failed and god bless her.

Bad service and support
They Lie! Cheat you out of your hard earned cash. Flip Flop on agreements they make with you.Numbers on my cell phone that I did not call,to make it look like there was no problem with my service. Starts at HEADQUARTERS and trickles down to costumer care, Ha. What a joke they are. Anything to get your money. I am asking people to file their complaints to the CONSUMERS AFFAIRS and the Better Business Bureau to fight the RIPOFFS.

They charge for everything
I have been a customer of Alltel for 9 years. I recently changed plans, and soon after received a bill from ALLTEL. The bill was a partial bill had I had changed prior to the bill cycyle ending. No Problem. I paid the bill, and continued to use the phone. About a month and 1/2 passed by, and I received a text message on my phone telling me I needed to pay my bill. I contacted the office, as ALLTEL had recently closed the office in our city, and was told they would mail me a bill. I received a bill for the entire month and 1/2, but only a statement for part of the bill. I called ALLTELL again. I was informed that they would send the additional statement this time, but in the future I would have to pay $2 per month to get the statement mailed to my home. They also charged me for the text message they sent, as well as a late fee. I informed the lady I was not paying the text cost, nor the late fee, and that I would find another service that would mail the statements to me at no cost. I am presently try to find another carrier.
