Good customer service after I emailed multiple times
I had a very difficult time setting up my phone at first - I accidentally put the wrong sim card in and did not know that. I did not know the white credit card looking thing held the new sim card, so I spent 2 weeks trying to troubleshoot and speak with IT and I did get very frustrated with the amount of time it took to get it resolved and that there was not a phone number I could find at first to call to speak with a person.
Zazi and I were finally able to resolve it and figure out I had the wrong sim card in, after a few days of working on it.
Thank you for your help. I did appreciate Zazi's help after I asked to speak with a manager. I do better with people who can respond to me like I am a human versus scripted responses. Thank you!

SCAM: WisePhone Charged Me Full Restocking Fee for Unopened Product
I purchased a WisePhone but decided not to use it. I followed the return procedures which required me to open the shipping box to enter the IMEI off the sealed tube. I did exactly this and then sent the unopened item back to them. I did not open the actual phone package at all. I was charged a full restocking fee. Jay from Wisephone LIED that I had opened the package. Called customer service line and got "cannot come to the phone right now."
I am warning you do NOT buy a phone from this company. These are serious red flags (lying about return condition to charge an erroneous restocking fee), having no customer service line. This is a fly by night operation. Steer VERY clear.
The long replies to complaints, don't trust them. It's the sort of thing a company does to appear responsive. Trust us when we say this company behaves in a shady and unacceptable way.

Hi Rajat, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’ve carefully reviewed your complaint. Based on your description, only the outer shipping box was opened to retrieve the IMEI number, but during the inspection, it was noted that the tube had been unsealed.
To ensure fairness and because the device was returned in like-new condition, we made an exception and only charged a $25 restocking fee for your unopened device return. Hopefully, this resolution reflects how much we value our customers.
We also want to clarify that our team would never misrepresent a return or deceive a customer. Every returned device is inspected by a professional third-party using strict, industry-standard protocols. Additionally, our customer support team is small but dedicated. If you reached voicemail during our business hours, it’s likely because we were helping other customers at that moment. But rest assured, we always make a point to return voicemails as soon as we can.
We understand this situation was frustrating, and we sincerely regret the negative impression it left. Integrity and transparency are central to who we are, and we care deeply about every customer experience.
If you’d like to discuss this further, we’re happy to connect by phone. Feel free to call us at 512-675-1820 or reply to your recently closed ticket.
Frustrating Setup Experience with Wisephone 2
Yesterday I got my new Wisephone 2, and I was really looking forward to starting my journey with it, as it would have given answers to a lot of addictive problems. Unfortunately, I've run into some challenges during the setup process. When I try to activate my SIM card through the app, it keeps crashing right before I can enter or scan the barcode.
I'm not bringing in my old number and completely switched from Verizon, but because of the SIM card issue, I'm kinda stuck.
I've tried a few troubleshooting steps, like restarting my phone, updating the app, and even reinstalling it, but the app still closes unexpectedly. It’s been a bit of a letdown, as I can't get past the setup stage and enjoy my new phone.
I’ve reached out to customer support for help and am hopeful they can guide me through this. Overall, I’m still excited about my Wisephone 2 and looking forward to resolving this issue so I can start using my new device. Here's to hoping for a quick fix!
UPDATE: got my phone set up and so far so good,
FIFA World Cup is coming up, and of course, the FIFA app is the only way to get in, and sadly, Wisephone doesn't have the app, and the vetting process is currently paused and has been for a while. So now I gotta get another phone just for game entry on top of the expensive tickets. SMH. I like my wisephone, but this sucks.

Michael, we’re so glad to hear your setup issue is resolved and that you’re now up and running with your Wisephone II! 🎉 We know how disappointing it can be to run into a snag right out of the box, and we truly appreciate your patience while our team helped get things sorted. It’s great to hear your excitement for the journey ahead—welcome to the Wisephone community!
Initially frustrating, but getting better
the customer support is terrible.
Update 10/22. I did receive a well thought out reply from Wisephone. It was very beneficial to get the phone going. It was a frustrating experience from the beginning as I felt I was getting "canned responses" that really were not interested in solving my issues (some which were self inflicted)
I believe I am now on track to use this phone. Hopefully it delivers.

Hi Jeff, we’re really sorry to hear that your experience with our support team didn’t meet expectations. We reviewed your ticket and escalated it to ensure you received the attention you deserved. Our team took great care to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, and we truly appreciate your patience throughout the process.
I agree with Peter V
I agree with Peter V. This phone is designed for young people. I bought this phone not knowing what I was in for; I just wanted something to help me stay off of IG and FB. I understand Techless' concept and am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and work out the issues. I figure if I want to go back to a browser-based phone I have that freedom to do so.

Not What I Had Hoped
I’ve come to Wisephone 2 from Wisephone 1, and I do have to say it feels like a significant downgrade rather than an upgrade. What drew me to Wisephone in the first place was the fact that it was NOT a smartphone: no browser, no apps, no complicated interface with layers and layers of settings, no Google anything. Just a modern-looking device for the bare essentials of calling and texting. That is what I wanted, and three years ago I was delighted to find it. This new iteration seems like an abandonment of that simplicity, and I am quite disappointed. Wisephone 2 is merely a (fully enabled) smartphone with a customized launcher… which I could have gotten elsewhere for far less than $400, if it were what I was looking for.
I can’t fault Techless for introducing a new product that aligns with its vision as a company, but had I known how different that vision is from what it appeared to be when I first purchased my Wisephone 1, I would have opted for a different device altogether.

Thank you so much for sharing your honest feedback and for being an early Wisephone supporter. We completely understand where you’re coming from – Wisephone II represents a new chapter in our mission. While it opens the door for more functionality and security, we know that some users truly value the pure simplicity of the original Wisephone.
Our goal has never changed: to provide phones that help people reclaim their time, attention, and peace of mind. Wisephone II builds on that foundation with more flexibility and longevity, but we truly hear and respect your desire for a simpler experience. Feedback like yours helps shape how we continue to grow while staying true to our roots – thank you for being part of that journey.
You are on the right track!
The personal touch was great since I was having porting issues. It took a while to resolve but the temporary (and refunded) phone # helped bridge that gap. My workgroup (IT) had a "fireside chat" with a professor/researcher/author who had a lot to say about internet addictions....your company is on the right track....keep forging ahead!

Rude and unhelpful customer service, charged for site error
For context, wisephone purchasers can pay either through the techless website or the shop app. When I was trying to buy a wisephone, I originally tried to buy through the shop app. However, I received a message that the app could not accept my credit card. The screen did not advance to a confirmation page.
So, I instead paid through techless and received a confirmation that payment had gone through.
A week or so later, I received two wisephones. When I checked my credit card bill, I saw that I had been charged twice: once through the shop app and once through techless, despite only reaching one confirmation page.
I contacted techless and told them about the glitch. They told me I would still have to pay shipping and restocking fees. I finally managed to get a hold of a manager, who told me he would investigate the issue and that I could return without paying shipping and restocking fees.
That should have been the end of the issue, but a few days later another manager (Robert) called. He was exceedingly rude, frequently interrupting me and informing me that I was clearly at fault. As I work at a tech company, I'm quite technologically competent and recognize a technological error when I see one. However, Robert insisted that it didn't matter that there was only one confirmation page or that I had received a message that my payment couldn't go through--the issue was clearly my fault. Now I'm being told that I'm only going to get a partial refund, despite the first manager's assertion that I would get a full refund. This company seems to care very little about customers or their experience, despite their assertion that they are trying to protect customers.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Heather. We’re very sorry for the confusion and frustration caused by the mix-up during your return process.
After reviewing the situation, we see that your initial conversation with Zazi was handled correctly - the restocking fee was to be waived, and we are honoring that commitment. A subsequent conversation with another manager, Robert, occurred before the tickets were fully merged, and he wasn’t yet aware of Zazi’s arrangement. We regret that this created the impression of inconsistent guidance and caused any stress.
We want to emphasize that the full refund for your second order is being processed as originally promised. To show our appreciation for your patience and understanding, we also offered a complimentary month of WiseOS subscription.
We value your support of Wisephone and are taking steps to improve our internal communication so that future customers don’t experience the same confusion. Your feedback helps us ensure that we continue learning and improving.
Thank you again for your patience and for being part of the Wisephone community.
