Thank you for sharing your experience.

Activating a new device can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when creating accounts and learning how to manage everything from a separate device. We are so glad Zazi was able to walk alongside you through each step and make the process clear and manageable.

His patience and willingness to answer every question are qualities we value deeply in our support team. No one should feel rushed or unsure when setting up their Wisephone, and it is encouraging to hear that he provided steady guidance throughout.

We truly appreciate you taking the time to recognize his support, and we are grateful to have you as part of the Wisephone community.

The Wisephone II is a great phone…Techless as a company sucks

The Wisephone II is a great phone itself.
Techless as a company is horrible.

I do not recommend.

Customer service....frankly sucks. They have completely stopped reviewing third party apps for months now. Their billing system is a mess. They "issued" me a refund for the phone that I was not returning, then demanded that I had to pay them back. I asked for a few months of subscription for free to make up for the inconvenience. They offered me 2 months, but the last 2 months they still charged me, and I had to email them reminding them I was supposed to be comped the 2 months.

All customer service is by email, no one ever answers the phone and they refuse to call me back for an in person conversation.

Their emails always have excuses and never solutions.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. We want to approach it with the seriousness it deserves.

First, we appreciate your acknowledging the Wisephone II itself. That means a great deal to our team, who work hard on the product experience.

At the same time, we are genuinely sorry that your experience with billing and support left you frustrated. Refund errors, follow-up credits, and having to reach out multiple times to resolve an issue are not the experience we aim to provide. We understand how that can erode trust.

Regarding app reviews and communication channels, we have been prioritizing system stability and security improvements, but that should never feel like silence or avoidance.

Your concerns matter. We would welcome the opportunity to review your account carefully and ensure everything is resolved properly.

Great Customer Service

I just got off the phone with Anthony - he was great! I already have a Wisephone and bought a second Wisephone for a family member....unfortunately I screwed up the setup process, it was all me haha! Anthony was very polite and patient with me and helped me get everything sorted out. Thanks Anthony!

Thank you for sharing this.

First, we appreciate your honesty. Setup hiccups happen, especially when adding a second device, and there is no judgment here. We are simply glad you reached out.

Anthony does a great job meeting customers exactly where they are. His calm approach, patience, and clear guidance make situations like this feel manageable instead of stressful. It is encouraging to hear that he was able to walk you through everything and get both devices sorted out smoothly.

We are also grateful that you chose to purchase a second Wisephone for your family member. That trust means a great deal to us.

Thank you again for your support and for recognizing Anthony’s care and professionalism.

It is great to hear that Zazi was able to guide you through the portal with clarity and friendliness. Navigating account features can sometimes feel unfamiliar, so having someone explain things clearly makes all the difference.

The customer service experience and the…

The customer service experience and the return policy was not good. They charge a $25 restocking fee, which is fine. But they also charge a $55 "open box fee". What they don't tell you in advance is that to return the product, you have to provide them what's called an "IMEI number" in addition to the order number. Well, wouldn't you know it, you must open the box to find that "IMEI number". So even though I emailed back and forth before opening the box to ensure I avoided the open box fee, I was told I had to open the package to get that number. When the return was processed, they charged me for the "open box fee". I didn't want to open the box. The only reason I did is because they told me I had to so that I could give them this IMEI number. I don't know if this is intentionally deceptive but it sure seems like it. Not happy at all with this company and I would avoid doing business with them if I were you.

Right now I am very unimpressed with the customer service. It appears the phones are lost in the mail and they will not confirm that they will give me refund if I don't get them. My friend told me the customer service sucked, but I wanted the idea of getting rid of distractions. They even told me I had to follow up with fedex. As the receiver fedex won't give me more than what I can see online, that the package is essentially missing. They could have assured me they had my back but instead wanted to argue about everything. If you are even thinking of getting this phone don't do it, just take your iphone have your spouse take everything off and set a code so you cannot add it back, problem solved and Apple as way better customer service. They would have been like if you don't get it we will refund you or send you a replacement but wisephone refuses to put that in writing to reassure you that they got your back. At this point even if I get them and keep them I am only going to use it as a paper weight.

Yolani was very thorough and patient. She made herself available to me over several days and made sure I was all set up. I know I can still call if I need to still if something else comes up. I am over the moon in love with this phone. Freedom tastes so sweet. :-)

Zazi is the GOAT

Zazi is hands-down the best customer service rep I’ve dealt with in a long time. Clear communication, fast responses, zero runaround, and actually cared about solving the issue instead of just closing a ticket. Everything was explained in a way that made sense, no attitude, no copy-paste answers. Just straight competence and professionalism.

You can tell when someone actually takes pride in their work, and Zazi is that guy. He made the whole experience smooth, stress-free, and honestly way better than expected. If customer service were the standard, Zazi would be the benchmark everyone else gets compared to.

Give this man a raise, a promotion, or at least clone him, because if more reps operated like Zazi, customer service wouldn’t have the bad reputation it does.

First "grownup phone" for our 17 year-old

After looking at a couple of options, our 17 year-old daughter chose Wisephone II as her first "grown up" phone. Setup was easy, and so far it works great for our needs (basic texting/calls, Life 360, and Spotify). My husband and I Brick our smartphones but we wanted to essentially give our daughter a chance at the life we wish we could have, untethered from a smartphone.

We bought it during the Christmas season so it came with a code for $14.99 off a month of service and when I tried the code it didn't work. I received an email a couple weeks later reminding me to use it and I responded to the email saying the code didn't work and within hours the company had refunded us the $14.99. I was honestly impressed.
