      Hi Nona, I’m really sorry to hear that the phone didn’t work with your plan. I completely understand how frustrating that must be, especially with the restocking fee on top of everything. The best way to handle this would be to reach out to Best Buy directly, they should be able to help you with returning the phone.

      Again, I’m really sorry for the inconvenience and hope it gets sorted out quickly for you. -Elle MotorolaMobility

    For $109, this phone isn't even 5G. When I bought it I asked about buying an Otter box or another protective case. Best Buy didn't have any, and could not tell me where to find them. Next day the phone fell off the bed and shattered the screen. Ive had my old phones survive this many times. I told Best Buy, but they just said it's my fault for not buying an an Otter box!

    Bad experience. I still haven't received my product. The roadie put it in front of the wrong door, it wasn't my apartment or the condominium's storage room. I've already contacted the chat 5 times and nothing has been done so far. I've even been to the physical store. Without success. If nothing is done, I'll take the appropriate legal action.

    Paid $140 for this phone had it a month and a half it’s no longer returnable and still brand new. Went to a ecoATM and got offered $8. What a joke. I didn’t take the offer needless to say since this phone is clearly overpriced trash. Then I saw this at Dollar General for $50 bucks new. Rip off. Camera sucks.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback, TrishaR. We’re sorry to hear that the performance of the phone hasn’t met your expectations, and we understand how frustrating it can be when a device doesn’t perform as expected. Slow is sometimes caused by too many running apps in the background, use your recent apps button to close apps you're not using. It is also a good practice to restart the device periodically (every 2-3 days) to clear out buffers and memory that may lead to intermittent issues. If the concern persists, kindly go to this link: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/mcp/landing_troubleshooter/g_id/5059 > Next > Display/Touchscreen > Phone is slow/unstable and try the recommended steps there. Should there be any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to email supportforums@motorola.com. We'll be glad to help. -Mitch MotorolaMobility
