I recently purchased a highly anticipated Boost Mobile I9 and here are the results of an email I sent them...(keep in mind that this is after 5 days of trying to get reliable service with them)


"I'm throwing in the towel with you guys. I'm not going to call customer care and sit on hold anymore. I am switching back to my old service tomorrow and I need to know how I can go about getting a refund on my phone and service. This has been a miserable experience, but I am willing to take a refund and call it a wash...please send me a RA number and address where to send the phone and advise me on how long it will be before my credit card is refunded. Just in case you want to know...here are the issues I had: 1) Texts come through between 5-15 minutes after they are sent (I had everyone who text me yesterday include the time they sent it in the text) if they even come through. 2) I called my my voice mail yesterday and it connected to to Goodwill Baptist Church...huh? 3) When I attempt to make a call it rings once then is silent...but apparently stills rings on the other persons end... 4) Tonight I tried to call somebody and it rang once then went to fast busy then a mexican recording answered...then the person I was trying to call called me back and said that they got a call from me but all they could hear was a mexican talking... 5) People try to call me and they get a message that says that please hold we are trying to locate the person...then it says that I cannot be located...hummm...I'm...I sitting in my damn house with a full bar of service... 6) I currently have 5 text messages sitting in my In box and when I try to retrieve them it just gives me a server error. 7) This phone is my home phone too...and I cannot afford for it to suck... Thanks..."

Wow...no refund after only 5 days for a totally misrepresented product...can you say wow?

I hope you heed my advice and stay away from Boosy Mobile and pay a few extra dollars and get a reliable carrier...trust me when I say your sanity is worth it...

Hi there, i have boost mobile service.And really, compare to my personal carrier, they don't stand a chance.i will suggest instead of calling every month to complaint, let's all but nex tel units from mexico.Let's see if that solve the problem.Cause that's the answer i get every time i call boost mobile."You live too close to the border, and the signals of antennas interfere with each other"my question is:I live in america, who cares what happen with mexican antennas, i am not paying for them, i am paying for my american service.tried time and time and again, looks like they can not solve their problems.I just hope the someone out there could read this and take some actions.
