Today my husband and I had an adventure trying to obtain a new phone. Unfortunately, my husband lost his phone and needed a replacement. We went to the Spectrum in Springfield Spectrum and the customer representative recommended we go to another Spectrum as they did not have the specific phone in stock. We then went to Spectrum on Atlantic Avenue and we were told by the guard that Spectrum has moved to Queens Village. The parking was atrocious, so we drove to Spectrum on Austin Street. My husband was prepared to pay for the phone but the customer representative stated that the card did not go through after she swiped it two more times without telling us. My husband called the bank and the representative stated that nothing is wrong with his card but there are three pending charges on his account. We left Austin Spectrum without a phone and good customer service. The sales rep was not empathetic and did not make an effort to troubleshoot the matter. She was not helpful at all. I am not sure if we plan to stick with Spectrum. Our intent is to return to T-Mobile as we never had an issue like this before.
Part 2- So today, my husband still did not have a phone. From Saturday the three charges of $320.00 was still pending. My husband believed that could no longer be with out a cell phone, so he paid for the lost cell phone via phone and went Spectrum on Jamaica Avenue. The customer representative at Jamaica Avenue stated that he did not pay for the phone. He informed the representative that it was paid via phone. We contacted customer service and the representative stated that the charge was still pending. We decided that there was too much drama with Spectrum when it pertained to cell phones, so we went to T-Mobile Metro, purchased two new phone and opened our account. There was no issue with the card being blocked or waiting for a pending charge. We received everything we need with no stress. Finally, after a week my husband has a cell phone. Now, we have to see out the four pending charges with Spectrum. Hopefully, Spectrum will improve in...

Read moreI subscribed to Spectrum Residential TV/Internet Services in Oct/2022 when I moved in to a new apartment. You get to choose 15 à la carte cable channels, Spectrum throws in available local channels, and with Internet service, for $119.98 a month for 12 months. But curiously, Spectrum increased my monthly bill to $122.40 only after 4 months in Feb/2023. I must say I was not entirely surprised, as this is a typical practice of deceptive advertising used by most American institutions to attract the public by offering low initial subscription prices and then increasing them shortly thereafter.
OCT/2022 $119.98 FEB/2022 $122.40 / $2.42 increased AUG/2023 $123.47 / $1.07 increased OCT/2023 $128.77 / $5.30 increased FEB/2024 $135.93 / $7.16 increased OCT/2024 $160.43 / $24.50 increased FEB/2025 $167.17 / $6.74 increased
*At the end of 2024, Spectrum made fun of me on my monthly bill, claiming to have saved me money, when in reality, it increased my bill. THAT is the biggest joke of...
