GetHuman-scottp5: I was tricked into leasing a phone that I can't afford to lease at Best Buy, and neither they nor Sprint will do anything to fix it.
GetHuman: Can you tell the rest of us a bit more from what happened on 11/27/17?
GetHuman-scottp5: I went to Best Buy last April just to look at phones. I told the employee that, and that I wasn't due for an upgrade yet. He said that I could get a phone, and it would only be $* more a month. He never said that it was a lease program. I'm on my daughter's account, but I am not an authorized user, but they let me sign the contract anyway. That $* more is now $** more a month, and I can't afford that, as I am on disability. I called Sprint a couple months ago, and they said for me to go to Best Buy and tell them to change it back to an upgrade and cancel the other charges. When I did that, they said they can't change contracts and they wouldn't do anything. My daughter is very busy, and can't devote days at a time to fight this. I'm doing what I can to get answers, but I'm not a user of the account, so I'm limited. meanwhile, she's been covering these extra charges for me, but that's not right. if this doesn't get fixed, you stand to lose * cell phone accounts as our contracts expire.
