Kudos to. Mary and Marcus at the Boost Mobile store at Ottawa, Illinois. My wife and I went in on Tuesday July 14, to purchase a mobile phone plan. We were interested in 4 lines for $120. Everything went smoothly until the fourth line setup. The person that this line was being set up for was coming from Sprint. We started running into snags that werent clear but Marcus persevered and jumped through all of the hoops. Mary realized that the problem wasnt Marcus but that it originated from Sprint, asked to speak with a supervisor. Unfortunately they were disconnected and it wasnt until later the supervisor was on the line. Long story short, if it wasnt for Mary and Marcus hard work and tenacity we wouldnt have become customers. Mary and Marcus, thanks again and job well done!!!!!

Salesman was nice for the most part Mark, he is definitely smart. He tried to outsmart me in pricing . I know boost very well. The kid is smart about the phones I will give him that. I just did not like how he was trying to be pushy with giving me higher plans for the same service. Mark refused to take my tip money after fixing my phone . He was just trying to get me to buy a new phone . I did not need one. I walked in this store a year ago it has definitely changed. The people before was very lazy but these people they have there now are definitely different, there like car salesman. Boost I have no problem with your people there no keep them, but please address my concerns . What if I was a person that did not know about boost he could have took advantage of me please and thank you. I am a customer not a walking cash cow.

I came into this boost mobile not to happy, I got the run around over the phone. The employee name marcus was pretty compassionate. He told me my service matter. He is very talented that’s all I can really say . I have switched to a lot of different carriers before but never once have I got customer service like this .

Marcus is wonderful! His customer service is fundamental. He went over and beyond to help me. I havent had service like this ever. Marcus definitely gave me hope and reminded me theyre are still good hearted people in the world. He definitely deserves a raise and a bonus.

Marcus was great!! He helped my daughter get a phone after 3 times of us coming in and trying. He did everything in his power to make sure she left happy. It means a lot to have employees that care about the customers.

:( i am a transgender female, and got called a guy at the time i was there by a customer, the boost mobile guy there yesterday did not laugh, he ask the people there whats funny,they stop laughing at me. He asked them to leave, and told me dont you ever for a second doubt who i am, and told me smile because for every dark day there is a brighter one ahead. We just began talking and laughing, he treated me as a actual person should. thank you whoever you are i am now smiling because of you :)

They all stick together! Don’t like going to the Pontiac location so I always go here. Had a issue with my phone, the guy told me I need to network reset it, I did . I began to explain how I dislike the other store In Pontiac and the experience I had and I know the manager Mary . He did not want to hear me out, refused to talk to me about it . Completely ignored me! Never see him at this location before he is very tall and a African American male . He was nice and all but I think he needs to go. You don’t ignore customers when they are tell you there problems with the store! He kept saying anything else and smiled and told me to have a wonderful day ! Could not tell if he was being sarcastic. Something is going on I don’t know, Mary is the ring leader they all follow what she says without a doubt .

Anytime i go to any other boost mobile i dont get good service. Boost mobile you guys need to mirror how this guy here treats people. He needs to train other people, because other places they just dont care. Boost mobile please keep this guy. My only complaint is this guy is to hyper. i told him i was thinking about adding a line and he damn near followed me out the door talking about all of the options i had. for the most part i will be back.

Ive been very fortunate with my prepaid phones... And once again Boost has not disappointed. I needed a way to tether my laptop as I unfortunately had paid straight talk $50 for 5 gigs data thru a hotspot for over 2 years... Makes me sick when I think about it. When I saw Boosts $60 unlimited plan which offers 20 gigs of tethering + unlimited mobile I bit the bullet an went for it. Now Im almost tired of the internet Ive got so much data. And top notch coverage. Even getting it at a friends farm in Ellsworth, WI which is situated in a valley where none of them get service... With a big grin I do. Most the time, very happy with my LG X- charge phone as well for the money.

It shows theyre open right now but yet when you call nobody answers and if you go there no one is there. This is not the first time as a matter of fact this is the third time and over the last year since Ive had their service that they have not been in the office during office hours. One day I called ahead of time the lady told me they would be there till 6 I got there at 5 and they were closed they already left. Im having issues as we speak with my phone cannot even access my own account or pay my bill. A new phone store just came into town I may have to check it out this is terrible absolutely no customer service.

I would give it no stars if I could DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!!! Definitely do NOT TRY and order a phone with them, when your phone gets in after three weeks Plus of waiting they will try and charge you more money for it even though you already paid half of it down and they told me the price WOULD NOT change no matter how long it took to get inAll they will tell you is Im sorry, Im sorry Im sorry Im sorry Im sorry, if I had a dollar every time they told they were sorry I would have the 300 plus dollars they tried to SCAM me out of, but there not sorry enough to do anything about it. If you enjoy getting talked to and treated like an idiot, and enjoy trying to be scammed come here,,, IF YOU WANT THE BEST SERVICE AND PRICES I would DEFINITELY TAKE YOUR BUISNESS to the PERU STORE!!! TRUST ME Youll be happy you did. I dont see how they are even in buisness treating there customers the way they do!!!!!
