    For the books — The most terrible AI helping at in the entire world no customers service help and response timing is garbage compared to any other company I’ve dealt with they need to hire customer service reps

  • Mint Mobile1star· Sep 5, 2026

    Shameless — The app doesn’t even work lol. They “send you a text” to log in, and proceed to send no text at all. The Customer service is among the worst I’ve ever seen and I used to to work it. It’s cheap and that’s all it has going for it.

    Out of service — I want to make a payment but app,websites,customer service and support all out of service.

    Boost rip off — Not only did they add fees onto the reup charge, the unlimited data is just a scam. There are many companies out there that have true unlimited plans at a better price with no new hidden fees. Leave or don’t sign up with this company.

    Plans — The worst service in America. This is the only carrier that still has plans with GB’s that don’t last. Why not give your customers unlimited data like the rest of these carriers. I’m definitely switching to Metro PCS. Thanks Boost Mobile for robbing my pockets.

    Do NOT use. — The service started off slow but picked up after a week. Although i still had random slow downs (this is supposed to be unlimited, prioritized, data) at times, it proved to be more a hit than a miss. I only signed up for one month before possibly going all in and, let me tell you, I'm so happy that i did. When it came time to renew, which i was going to grab the longest offer, it t

    Not a — I thought by upgrading my phone system it would be better. However, it is actually worse. Whenever I receive a phone call on my cell, the app cuts off the call mid conversation with a re-login screen. The call workflow I meticulously set up, randomly gets deleted and I have to recreate it! Dragging the workflow back and forth across the screen to see the entire flow is cumbersome and r

    Keep saying authentication is wrong — There is a bug with login you need to fix it, it keep saying authenticator app code is wrong, but when I go to set it up, no key is provided from “the previous page”

How this is counted

Every number is arithmetic over the reviews we hold, re-counted weekly: nothing modelled, nothing scored. Themes come from a frozen pattern classifier rather than a model reading reviews, so the same review always lands in the same bucket. A market rate is pooled across every app here; the store rate is the same count across 12,743 apps. A complaint is only called a gap when at least half the market carries it, at least 20 reviews are behind it, and the market’s rate is elevated above the store’s, the same cutoff used everywhere on this site, because a problem concentrated in one app is that app’s bug, and a problem every app on the store shares is nobody’s gap. This market has no full report yet, so the per-app notes are absent rather than estimated. The anger axis is counted either way: mean star of the reviews carrying each theme, from the same classifier as the counts above.
