Have been a customer for 14 years. My sister was on my plan and passed away. Her husband transferred her phones to a new plan. I am billed a month in advance and they won't credit my account and have billed my brother in law. For his new account. Customer service won't help in fact Lisa told me to be quiet so she could talk. When I was trying to explain. She didn't want to hear it. No compassion for a death and will not credit my account for phone not used. Shame on you. I will be leaving becai after all these years. You won't help at all.
so that I understand what happened.... your sister passed away and the account was moved from her name to your brother in-laws right? You wouldn't necessarily get any credits for the old account which is why I'm confused. Why would you be getting the credits? I'm sorry for your loss
NANLEE83, we are so sorry to hear of your loss. When is comes to the lines of a deceased family member we take care of things for you. In this case it depends on when you called to notify us, and when the line was moved to your brother's account. Mflandshark's logic is correct. Moving the line from one account to the other wouldn't credit you if you had already been billed for the previous month's use.
Did you get charged a month after switching the line?

I think you meant time of grief... I'm glad you are trying to help the OP. Reps should never be so interested in hearing themselves talk that they forget to listen, and be compassionate, under all circumstances, but specially during a time when a customer in good standing has lost a loved one. It's particularly those times that exceptionalism in service means going above and beyond and taking extra-ordinary action and taking extra-ordinary ownership in resolution... That should be valued, re-enforced, and recognized customer service management.
