I didn’t sign up for the Trump Mobile cellphone plan. I still haven’t received my gold plated Trump phone. But the company just charged my credit card again.

I also don’t know how to make the charges to my credit card stop because other parts of the (since updated) website also return errors and the customer service number I called on the website couldn’t help either.

I recall that the “stop the steal” donations continued billing people who thought they made a one-time donation. Hahaha. Stupid MAGA idiots will get fleeced and thank Trump for the privilege. Rubes! You deserve to be conned. Enjoy uncancelable recurring fees while you pay your medical bills that used to be covered by Medicaid, fascists.

    Chargeback, then let them know it’s a duplicate.

    The credit card company will get really pissed if it continues and will eventually remove the companies ability to use their services.

    I had to do this with Verizon.

      We’ve already seen how willing companies are to stand up to Trump, even if he is in the wrong.

      I’m totally sure T-Mobile or the Credit Card company would be willing to defend this in court…

          One of the comments above said they were the parent carrier offering MVNO services to Trump Mobile.

          I’m pretty sure TACOmobile is using Tmo’s towers, sort of like how Mint Mobile does. There’s a term for it that I’m drawing a blank on, hopefully someone else knows and replies

          Edit: I still don’t know why the commenter included T mobile, it’s definitely a broad shot against an otherwise mostly uninvolved party. TACOmobile is the one doing the billing as far as I know.

          Edit part deux: Or it’s a superPAC or other donation collector taking the money right now maybe? Either way, not Tmo

            I believe the term you are looking for is MVNO, Mobile Virtual Network Operator.

            I mean, there are only two other companies with which to do that here so there’s a 1/3 chance it’s Tmo to begin with. But yeah, I’m still not sure what they would have to do with the credit card charges for Trump Mobile, as opposed to Mint, Tmo owns Mint.

              That’s exactly the term (phrase, I guess) I was searching for, thank you. I also missed the news when Tmo bought Mint, so double thanks there.
