I never called that number and they have since billed us for service. I called and told them we never used the phone and gave it back to the neighbor, who stashed the phone in a drawer. Greatcall said they would look into the matter and call me in a couple of days. A month later, we were billed for another months service. They refuse to settle this, and just to be done with it, my mind numbed mother is only too happy to give her money to this evil company.

The customer service people have always been pretty good with us. Always very friendly and helpful. They allowed us to drop down a level when mom and dad didn't use as much minutes to save them money. When my dad passed away they let me pass the one phone on to my handicap sister and she used it up until her passing this last year and now her husband is using it still. They are very understanding and have no issues .. we have never been billed for minutes that were not used. When my sister was in the hospital dying and the only phone charged up to call the family to come to the hospital was the jitter bug .. we ended up going way over on minutes.. we called and they raised the minutes on the phone to avoid a very excess bill. It was so kind of them. They didn't have to do it because we had already used the minutes. We just called and explained the circumstances and they were very understanding. I know this sounds like a commercial or something for them.. but it is the truth. I am very grateful to them.. it gave me peace to know that my folks and my sister had a reliable cell phone service when they were out going to doctor appts. and such. We had tried others and it just wasn't as reliable of service. Sorry others have not had the same experience.PMAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09041502267996188183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808086014191117410.post-29497948814264339862011-12-01T14:48:59.309-08:002011-12-01T14:48:59.309-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Edwin Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876122926945629202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808086014191117410.post-21023503610771826722011-12-01T14:47:47.953-08:002011-12-01T14:47:47.953-08:00Doing business with Jitterbug

in October...Jitterbug has odd definition of fraud <br /><br />in October my mother went to a nursing rehab facility temporarily. Two days in her jitterbug disappeared. We have no idea if it was lost, accidentally thrown out or stolen. We called jitterbug about how to replace the phone and if we held service till she got a new phone, would she be able to use her old number. Due to costs and time (it would take as long as two weeks to ship a phone verses going to a local store and buying one.<br /><br />We made sure that knew that they knew, until we picked up a new phone her old one was missing and to make sure no calls are allowed until we get the new one set up. This took about a week. At least $200 worth of calls were made after teh old phone was reported missing and teh new one wa sstarted. They want us to pay for these.<br /><br />Ahh no. we told you not to allow calls to be made or billed. Why is this so hard..OHHH you are trying shake us down for $200. Jitterbug are theives get rid of your phone use a real service. They show no evedence of "fraud" yet calls were made from a phone reported missing. Well it wasn't mom. She lost the phone must be unauthorized or FRAUDULENT use.Edwin Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876122926945629202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808086014191117410.post-30119523753823568732011-02-10T09:51:04.998-08:002011-02-10T09:51:04.998-08:00Great posting!

My five year-old daughter and my 69-year-old dad are using it. One time my daughter was able to use the emergency response feature of the phone when she was locked in the school’s bathroom. She just dialed the SOS button and her classroom adviser received an instant message that she’s having an emergency.
