Terrible
I thought Cmobile was a good company until they told me they don’t want me as a customer just because my number kept getting ported out when it was not my fault the providers that was trying to port my number didn’t cancel the ports

Waste of Money
They never provided the 2MB of data as promised in our plan, and even went so far as to brick our phone when we reached 1MB of data (so we could not even use the phone credit we had already paid for). Total waste of money and no customer service at all.

As to pay more with no additional benefit
Lost my phone number as I was not given enough time to migrate

Bullying tactics when bill is overdue
They use bullying tactics when bill is overdue and seem to forget we are not on a contract NOT HAPPY
You are correct, you are not on a contract and may leave at any time by either contacting us and requesting that we disconnect your service or porting your service away to another provider. Here at CM...
Read moreobile, we don't feel that is unreasonable to require our customers to pay for the service they are using as we're not able to provide a free service. When a bill is overdue, we send a friendly reminder text. If payment isn't made 7 days later, we send a reminder email. We advise of the due date and also advise that the service will be barred and a late payment fee placed on the account if the bill isn't paid by a certain date. We then send a reminder text a few days before this date and we invite customers experiencing financial hardship to contact us to discuss their account if they need help. We feel these reminders are polite and courteous but if you would like to contact us at support@cmobile.com.au to point out any perceived "bullying tactics", we'd be happy to review our overdue account reminders. We are a small business and we cannot afford to allow customers to continue using our service if they are not paying for it. If you'd like to contact us on the email address above to discuss your account, we'd be more than happy to work with you to resolve the issues.
Even though I'm now with another service and had my number ported you somehow managed to keep my service restricted please remove this asap and my account with you should be closed, so stop charging me for a service that no longer exists immediately
CMobile has no control over another service provider porting your number and we cannot restrict your service if you have ported away to another service provider. Please get your facts right before making false and misleading comments.

Scum Rip off Merchants Avoid.
This is meant to be a prepaid service yet i am straight away ripped off $12.95 for a application that was not approved due to a poor credit rating. why do you need a credit check for a prepaid service scum ripping of a pensioner. avoid this company they take your cash and dash. dont belive all the positive reviews i can guarantee you they are all written by c mobile themselves. now contacting consumer affairs
Hi,
Due to the entirely false nature of your review, which we have detailed below, we have requested ProductReview remove this report. However while they are investigating our report, we'll address your complaint here publicly....
Read more Firstly, we are not a prepaid provider. We have never said we are a prepaid provider so we're unsure where you got that idea from. We are a postpaid provider with no lock in contracts. Secondly, you were charged $12.90 because you requested your SIM card be sent out to you via Express Post. It is very clear in our application process that selecting the express post option will incur an additional fee so we didn't hide that from you. We've offered to provide a copy of your application to ProductReview to evidence your request for express post. Thirdly, your application was not rejected. In fact, you were sent an email yesterday advising you that your application had been approved and that a SIM would be mailed out to you via express post. Again, we've offered to provide a copy of this email to ProductReiew. We would be more than happy for you to go to Consumer Affairs as we can provide the evidence referred to above. Your false and rude review gave us cause to reconsider your application and we've decided not to proceed with bringing you on as a customer. We appreciate all reviews of our business, including the negative ones, provided they are genuine, and your review is not genuine. The $12.90 you paid has already been refunded to your credit card and you should see that back in your account within the next day or so. Best of luck finding a telco provider that can make you happy. Regards, CMobile

False Advertising!!
Was promised much by [name removed], the owner of CMobile but sadly he did not deliver.
I was on the blue plan which was falsely advertised on their website as having great network coverage. In reality this is not the case.
[name removed] buys wholesale networks from Telstra Wholesale and Vodafone but i sense they are giving him the bottom of the barrell.
My experiences consist of virtually zero coverage outside of a metro city. This is not just for calls, or texts but also vital internet needs.
Much much slower than the old dial up!! ...
Read more Then i was switched to their red plan but although was slightly better, it was taking much time just connecting to websites that it was actually eating away at the data allowance. As a result, excessive data charges were applied to my account!!
No sorries thanks just honesty.
Hi Yis, sorry to hear of your problems with our services. Our wholesale network access on Telstra (Blue plans) is the same as any other mobile service provider in Australia providing the Telstra netwo...
Read morerk. The Blue plans are now 4G and cover 98.8% of the Australian population so you are unlucky that you fall into the 1.2% that we don't cover! There is no "bottom of the barrel" of these services. We wish you the best with your mainstream carrier.Load of bollox

Not impressed with their Vodafone coverage and performance!
On a red plan and getting hardly any coverage where I am located which is a regional town. Calls dropping out and as for internet, well zilch! Not even one bar on the H+ symbol! Rubbish.
Sorry to hear of your coverage issues. Our Red plan uses the Vodafone network and as such may not be the best for users in a regional town. Have you considered our Blue plans which use the Telstra net...

Unreliable text messages
Talk service ok.
Every time i try and send txt message i get a notification it failed (90% of times). Try again, notificafion failed. Keep trying...failed.
Exactly the same thing happens to my partner who is on the same network.
Sometimes the recipient gets the message even though we are notified of a failure...embarrassing when they have received it 3 times even though you have had 3 fail notifications!!!
Moved to cmobile from slimtel who went in to receivership. Bad choice. Worst network experience ever.
