Is the BBB trustworthy?
I have an issue with US Cellular. I went on BBB, and they have an A+ rating, despite many, many complaints. There is a common pattern of a consumer making a complaint to the BBB about US Cellular, and then US Cellular replies with a generic "we're sorry, customer service is our top priority blah blah blah" response, and the BBB accepts that is the company taking a reasonable faith effort to resolve the issue.
If you look at the US Cellular facebook page https://www.facebook.com/USCellular , it is LOADED with unhappy customers. I know many people locally that are extremely upset with their service. People are getting double or triple billed in one month, not billed at all, phones randomly getting shut off despite being paid on time, 3+ hour wait times on the phone for customer service, website login not working, or only working intermittently, etc.
Something is fishy there..

I totally agree with you, that BBB is not a trustworthy organization to rely on as to quality and customer service of a company, especially if it is a complaint against one of their members. An A+ rating is totally bogus, when Consumer Affairs lists 246 complaint against them, and 91% of the respondents rate them as 1 star (out of 5 starts, and some state that they would have rated then no stars, if that were an option.) Here is a sampling of them:

I have no confidence in BBB and believe your experience is typical. It seems BBB doesn't want to reflect a negative report on their members.
