Beware of Bell Mobility

Jun 4th

Well the Bell Mobility issues never end. This is the most corrupt organization, not only are they throttling internet connection but time and time again they are ripping off their customers.

In previous posts I have detailed the issues with Bell and its billing policies. For 6 months they over charged me for my service by $20 dollars. Each an every month I have had to call the Bell customer service ( I use the term loosely) associates to get the bill corrected every month. I spoke with an customer service associate last month who stated that I would not be charged a cancellation fee when I switch companies because of all the hassles. After hearing this from the associate I went down to Rogers and signed up for a new contract with them.

A month goes by and I get a Bell bill, on this bill they have added the $20 that was credited back to back to me the month prior and again my bill is $20 more than it is supposed to be. After another 1 hour call with the manager of Bell I was told that it was Rogers fault for not canceling the account when the port transfer went through. Passing the buck yet another thing that Bell does well, no common sense in the company I tell you. If you don’t have the number anymore you have lost the client. Well I find out to no surprise that at this point Bell will try and extort as much money as possible out of you. “Watch this we’ll punish this puny client for getting fed up with our crap and going to a competitor!”. So during this call I am told that I will have to pay the $200 cancellation fee, OMG they have a recorded call with an associate telling me that they will waive the cancellation fee. These morons won’t pull the call and verify this information, of course not cause then you would HAVE to waive the fee for me. To bring this crap to a close they decide to give me the new cancellation policy which is $100 . Wow thanks for the crappy service and the reduction in the fee that I was not supposed to pay in the first place.

The manager on the line at this time tells me that he is only doing this because “I am a Bell family customer and even though I am with another provider now I will return to Bell!” What arrogance. If you think I will ever use Bell for any service again in the future you are either delusional or insane.

With any luck this whole ordeal will be done with once the cancellation bill is paid and I won’t have to deal with these idiots anymore. This article is a warning to all Bell mobility customers, I hope you don’t get trapped with this company. With number portability in full effect now you can keep your number and move to any other cellular service out there. There are so many to choose from in this day and age .

YOU DON’T HAVE TO USE BELL FOR ANYTHING!

Well after yet another bill error on Bell Mobility’s part this month I have decided to say !@#$%^ you to bell and switched to Rogers for my business cellular provider. For starters the phones are better, the lines are better, the customer service is better.

My new LG Shine Slider phone is a piece of fine manufacturing I tell you. The box has more design in it than I have ever seen. Intricate reflective design on the entire box with a magnetic top. A wealth of accessories comes with the phone including a functioning USB transfer cable. The phone is auto detected in vista as a mass storage device accessing both the phones integrated memory and the expandable memory card slot. Unlike on my Nokia 6275i the slot is on the phone case and not under the battery so I can swap out cards anytime.

LG PC Suite was a nightmare to get installed and connected to the phone on vista but once it is installed it works very well. For the daunting task of transferring all my numbers from my non SIM card phone to the Rogers LG Shine the PC Suite enabled me to use the Laptop to enter the data and the export to the phone. What a time saver that was. The USB port also charges the phone and allows internet access using the phone as a modem. NEVER USE THIS FEATURE IT WILL COST YOU A FORTUNE IF YOU DO….. Not from experience my self but from witnessing it when I was in the cellular industry.

Well its nice to have a shiny new phone and taking some business away from the Bell organization. What a bunch of idiots “HEY LETS THROTTLE THE INTERNET” “LETS MESS UP CUSTOMERS BILLS” then they wonder why they are losing money and business. WAKE UP!!!!

    This blog is just my random thoughts and like the thoughts the posts are random. The easiest way to be updates is through RSS. I try to post the good email jokes that I get and my rants about things in the world that bug me.

    I hope you enjoy what you read here if you do please share with your friends.
