Look here, bot... I said and I quote...

``` If "AlexTrac" replies... Sorry but my decision is final. Your copypasta vomit here is unhelpful. I'm not staying with a service that offers such ridiculous data caps and pay the same while Boost and Metro by T-Mobile offer really unlimited with no caps (deprioritization maybe) for the same price.

Never again. ``` (I'm using Markdown style formatting used on Reddit and GitHub.) No. I'm NOT chatting with your incompetent customer disservice. I should report you to Pissed Consumer staff for spamming.

I filed a complaint with the FCC and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. (That is a public figure Pissed Consumer do not censor). TracFone is a headache and a liar. The CEO of America Movil, Carlos Slim, who owns TracFone, needs to be fined insanely.

I'm sick of bad service with bot replies. Do not reply again, "AlexTracBot." Howard Forums banned you from their site.

Well, there IS such a thing as a happy ending, despite all the problems I had getting there. After all was said and done, I was finally transferred to a "manager" who actually had the "authority" to give me what I was asking for.

This "manager" was in Colombia (South America), all I had to do was explain my situation ONCE, she took ownership of the problem, fixed everything, and actually seemed glad to do it. Her name was Belen. I sent a letter of recommendation to Corporate Trac Fone complimenting her on taking such good care of me.

I haven't received any type of response, and actually I didn't really expect one considering how I was treated along the way, but how hard could it be to write up a small email thanking me for taking the time to recognize one of their employees? So, bottom line, the phone works, I got the extra features I wanted at a better price than the promo code offered, and I pray to God that I do not have the same problems two years from now when it's time to renew service.
