Resolved: Non fuctioning MJ

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Feb 22, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. I received the transfee port #I needed and went to a different carrier. MJ, in my humble opinion, is just above the outright fraud line.

Original review Feb 06, 2025

I was sold a renewal on my MJ. It did not work.

the splash screen is the size of a postage stamp on my computer and is not adjustable. I cannot click the button for using my phone with MJ. Tech support is only by email and exgftremely sporadic. I asked for my money back and was refused and given a list of things to try.

I did all that and then was asked to do the same thngs again.

MJ is the worst. It is cheap and you are still paying too much not usedo

MJ is Awful

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Since I filed a complaint with BBB about MJ, I decided to change carriers. MJ will not tell me what my port transfer number is.

There is only one function that seems to be working with MJ. That is to collect money.

I was a customer for 10 years. I had ups and downs with them, but nothing this bad.

Service doesn't work

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

It's okay when it works but if you ever have issues, good luck getting it resolved. Chat doesn't help they send you to another company (Howly.com) that charges you to fix the problem.

Don't think you will ever talk to an actual person. I have been a customer for several years with little issues.

There app is not worth the download.

Matter of fact, it was after I got the app I started having problems. If I wanted my calls to go straight to my cellphone then why would I need a home phone.

They hung up on me!!!

I called (3) times, having to listen to all the prompts multiple times. Finally talked to a human in tech support about my being unable to use the device sent to me because the jack connections were too large.

He transferred me to the billing dept, to Jay, who seemed unable to help me so he hung up. What do I do now???

User's recommendation: They could make it easier to talk to a human when you DON'T have a COMMON problem with a Magic Jack device.ck.

Service still not working

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have paid twice for a years service. Magic Jack confirmed by email that they received my payment.

And still, I get calls in but, cant make calls out. I have tried to renew my phone number but, instead my only option was to pay for a year again.

Not happy at all. I can see no way to contact them directly.
