Wing Tel for Android

I’ve been a wing customer for a few years now. I’ve switched back and forth between their services and they have worked with me to figure out which would be best for me. Have there been some issues? Yes of course. But I still love the company. Right now though, there is an issue with the app itself. They’ve been upgrading the system but the app doesn’t have the data usage part anymore. And it surely doesn't look like what it shows above. That is frustrating. As for customer service, I don’t call them, you can speak to customer service through the app. It works out fine for me. I love the service, I just hope they fix the app soon. Sure would be nice if the app looked like that above here. Maybe it will soon.

I’ve been with Wing a couple years now. Things have gone downhill drastically. I don’t like writing negative reviews, but I’m hopeful this helps warn people from signing up. My phone was shut off randomly from any service or cell data. I didn’t receive any notification that I was out of data in email, text, or on the app. I reached out to customer service and spent hours and days waiting for a response. Finally I was able to talk to someone who said there was nothing they could do. I couldn’t buy more data because they said it wasn’t possible. They said their app doesn’t support their system upgrade which is why I can’t see anything or do anything. I asked for my information to switch to another provider which would be half the cost per month and had much better reviews. No one responded to me. No one got back to me. Eventually I got in contact with senior management. She said that my concerns are absolutely valid and she’ll submit a request for a refund. With Wings “system upgrade” you have to pay for the next month the month prior. Since I was switching to a new provider, I wanted that month back since I would not be using it (I really should be getting almost 2 months back, but I only asked for one). I just got an email saying that they do not give refunds and that there’s nothing they can do. Please stay away. They’re going downhill and you don’t want to be caught in the mess or out of money.

Just be careful when you try to cancel and don’t subscribe to autopay. They will always take your money days ahead and their app and network have issues.

I have never left a negative review, but this is too much for even me to deal with. I’ve had Wing since 2018 and was quite happy until the past year. I finally decided to leave because it is near impossible to get a hold of a customer service representative. There have been times I’ve had to wait days to hear back. The last time I tried to cancel my plan, they promised me a lower rate, beginning with the next billing cycle. When that billing cycle rolls around, what do I find? The same rate as before—not the new one I was promised. Bc it’s so hard to get a hold of them, I decided it wasn’t worth trying to follow up over a ~$7.00 difference in cost. Oh, by the way: They’ve been slowly increasing their rates over the years. The final straw is they promised me a new SIM card to replace a faulty one (that they sent to me as part of their network upgrade) and I am still waiting for it a week later. That’s a whole week without cell phone service, while paying for said service. Currently waiting to hear back from them after both emailing and initiating multiple chats so I can port my number out and move on with my life. It’s really too bad, because I’m sure the employees work hard. I hope Wing sorts itself out so there are fewer customers in situations like mine.

If you never have an issue this may be a good service to use. If you like spending hours on a chat or sitting on hold for 45 min each time you have an issue, this also may be the service for you. Two separate occasions that took over an hour to fix(payment method issues, porting to another carrier) which should have taken 5-10 min tops. Their customer service reps are also rude and want to keep the chat going as if they get paid more for the time they take to address a customers issue! Don’t do it!
