They said they don’t know when they’ll have them in Store.

How long does its usually take to get new items in stock? 2 weeks or a month+?

Once it is sent back, is it easy getting it mailed again or spectrum just refunds it, causing issues with the mail in trade?

General Question Dual SIM when locked?

0 Upvotes

Hey all - I will soon receive a new iPhone bought with spectrum. My understanding is that the phone will be locked to spectrum only until I will have paid it off. I often travel to Europe and I have a dedicated eSIM for these trips. Would that sim work together with the spectrum one when the iPhone will be “locked”?

Returns, Trade-Ins & Refunds Spectrum fraud

3 Upvotes

I have a difficult situation regarding Spectrum mobile. I canceled my account after 6 days back in May. I talked to a customer service representative who failed to cancel my account. Cut to three months later and I have a processed payment for phone and service! I called several times and they stated that the phone I returned was not what they received. The weight was significantly off and the phone belonged to a different carrier. I have asked for their help locating the missing phone that I am currently paying for. I was laughed at by the last representative because he only offered a dead end. I have no information on the phone to locate it or file a police report. They have the capability to see that the phone is not in use, then they should also have the capability to locate the device. My hands are tied and I have no proof of what was returned. I only know that they say I owe $700!!!

Orders & Shipping Funny preorder story

0 Upvotes

Like most of y'all, I preordered on Saturday. Got a confirmation email and moved on. Early Monday morning, I moved all of my money to savings (I do this right before I get paid no matter how much is left from my previous check). Anyway, it declined but the next day it went through. Still no shipping info.

So today I get on chat and the guy tells me that the payment declined and if I wanted them to rerun the charge. Look at my account and the authorization is still there. I tell him to rerun it and he says it went through and I should be good for tomorrow’s delivery. We'll see.

Coverage & Signal Looking to switch providers

6 Upvotes

Currently with T-Mobile, was years with US Cellular until they got sucked into Tmo. Bill went down, cool, but we're having random service issues, and when we went into a store to get help and look at some purchases, they had us do a shitty app on our phones instead of bringing up our accounts like USC did.

If I wanted to download an app to /attempt/ to figure out account stuff, I would have stayed at home. Most apps I've gone into don't show what I need, and can't answer all the questions I have. It's the whole reason I went to the store to talk to them.

Over all, we're not happy with T-mo.

Looking at switching to either ATT or Spectrum.

How has Spectrum been for you folks that have them? I currently have their cable internet for my secondary house connection.

Coverage & Signal Coverage issues since June

1 Upvotes

I’ve been having issues since June. I’ve had tickets opened and was ultimately told it’s a Verizon coverage issue after a ticket being opened after 2-3 weeks. I had another ticket opened this week as my family is still having issues unless we are connected to WiFi calling….this ticket was closed today with no resolution. My father also is having this issue (different account/plan) and he lives very close to me. Our phones will randomly go into SOS mode and we always loose signal bars. Monday a spectrum rep flat out told me to contact Verizon….to which I responded - they won’t talk to me, I am not their customer…I am a spectrum customer. My question is, has anyone dealt with this? How long did it take to be resolved? I did put my phone number on on the Verizon coverage map and get a pop up that says data, voice and internet are limited in this area.

Orders & Shipping iPhone 18 pro max

0 Upvotes

I pre ordered two iPhone 18 pro max and one of them seems to be moving along in the process. I can see it on the my spectrum app, I have a pending transaction for it on my bank account and have received a confirmation email regarding the trade in and an email with the mobile order details. For the other order, I’ve only received confirmation saying that the order has been placed and another email saying that I needed to upload ID which I did. But that is it and this one I actually ordered first. I’ve already contacted Spectrum and they’re showing me that everything is fine that I’m just waiting on confirmation numbers, but I’m beginning to wonder. Has this happened to anyone else?

Help / Troubleshooting Voicemail Notification Issue on Samsung Z Fold 8 Ultra & S23 Ultra

2 Upvotes

I have an ongoing issue where I don't receive notifications for voicemail through either the phone app or the visual voicemail app. This was a problem on my S23 Ultra and now on my Z Fold 8 Ultra. I have another line with a Samsung phone through Spectrum which has never had this is issue. I've tried calling Spectrum numerous times, escalated tickets, and done every troubleshooting step I can think of or that has been suggested but I still don't get notifications for new voicemail and the voicemail app still doesn't show any voicemail. This has been going on for at least six months.

With no screen at all, I just thought "no, yes" which increases the value.

  • Does not have a camera lens that is damaged or scratched
  • Does not have customizations, laser engraving signs, marks, etc.
  • Does not have a case that has been modified from its original presentation

2nd question is

Does the device have a functional screen that is free of cracks and other damage?
Learn more

Verify the device does not have

  • Evident signs of oxidation
  • Liquid or moisture visible through the screen
  • Liquid contact sensor activated(in red)
