customer service

Post by Bengt »

I have been having a issue to renew my phone number for the past 8 months. Many chats, and no result. "Your account is under review" is told to me each time. This for 8 mo. I am still unable to pay the $10 required to update my phone no. as my account appears to be frozen, MJ seems not to be able to "unfreeze" it, nor I to use it. My MJ has now been shut down and still nothing can be done. I have asked to cancel my existing account & then open a new one. The same answer " you account is under review"

You may want to consider switching to Google Voice's $0/year subscription free phone service by installing and trying out the GVJackApp with your MJ dongle.

To try it out free for 7 days just download and install it. You can then decide if it makes sense for your situation before deciding to buy it.

that "could" be your problem, you may have to get someone in Canada to pay for you with their credit card.

No, that is not the problem. My credit card is Canadian, with a US billing address. When the due date for the renewal of the phone # arrived, my credit card had expired, as well the arrival of the new card was delayed. I gave MJ the new card no., it was posted on my account statement, but for whatever reason the security code was not updated by MJ, & I also am unable to update it. MJ has been aware of this problem, but nothing is being done.

I appreciate your input, but the location of the phone # has nothing to do with the place of payment.

Sorry Bengt, but with you living in Costa Rica, having a Canadian credit card (that previously expired no less) and a U.S. billing address for the Canadian credit card there is simply no way that MJ will renew your account.
