Virgin Mobile USA - customer service is a joke!

I recently bought a Slider Sonic from Virgin Mobile. The next may be the mail communication. This could be laughable if it had beennot so typical.

Unique email delivered by me to VM:

I recently bought the Kyocera Slider Sonic for my boyis b day (nowadays). Nowhere in your website does it suggest that the hardware wire or even the memory aren't involved. Actually it says simply the alternative within the person's manual and also the aid which are published in your website. I should state that this really is deceptive and irritating at-best. Perhaps deceptive.

The wire is challenging to acquire elsewhere and both wire and card ought to be provided or even the price of every ought to be acknowledged to my consideration because it was mentioned to become incorporated with the telephone.

Thanks,

Christine H

E-Mail 2 from me:

Your reaction isn't appropriate. I've previously obtained a flippant, couldn't care less, what would you like me to complete about this, reaction in the woman that I talked with recently after I eventually got through the telephone selection to some live person. I recognize (today) the top features of the Slider Sonic have transformed which the Transflash expanding storage and USB Wire aren't any longer involved. Our level being that you simply don't reveal this everywhere in your website or at that time of purchase which I'd not need purchased the telephone had I recognized this.

It was bought like a present. I went around Friday night searching for some spot to buy both the card and/or wire. No body (Wal Mart, Radio Shack, Bestbuy, etc) bears these things or might they direct me to somewhere that did. I'd to provide the kid something special, which he was not able to utilize all of the functions on. He was many dissatisfied and that I was acutely irritated.

If you should be likely to direct an unhappy client to some 3rd party merchant or additional area you'd best be particular about wherever and sure them can be obtained for sale. I also did a Google research and was not able to discover anywhere that provided the things. There have been many websites that had Sandisk cards but didn't particularly suggest that these were to be used within the telephone. Nowhere may I discover the wire available. Kyocera doesn't actually provide them available at their online shop.

I've often suggested Virgin Cell upon reading that somebody was buying fresh supplier however, you have fallen the basketball with this one. I really hope as possible give a more acceptable answer this email.

Our last try to get an intelligent reaction:

Clearly no body is making the effort to really study what I've created or you are simply attempting to irritate me into quitting.

You've really accomplished nothing to solve my issue.

At this time I again braved their silly Telephone IVR wherever the Selection speech seems like it is giggling at you looking to get a live person about the point. Once I did so obtain a live person about the point, she (Adrienne) place me on final store simply to return about the line declaring the Flash wire was available on the internet site being an item. It was stated in a tone designed to make me feel silly. Obviously the wire wasn't not on the webpage after I initially bought the telephone. They still haven't explained precisely which card will become necessary. I plan to keep up with the support with Virgin mobile-only long enough for my boy to savor the uniqueness of getting their own telephone then both of our balances may be terminated. I'm going to be publishing this criticism everywhere it's related.
