I appreciate your potential cooperation Jorge and I believe the 1 year term of my lease was mentioned during sigh-up with the sales representative. That said, whether or not I was aware of the potential, or did or did not have intent, to move prior to the full term of my commitment doesn’t absolve the representative of responsibility to provide complete information and allow fully informed decision making on the part of a prospective customer.

Ultimately however, I do need to cancel my account by June 19 to avoid further service fees when my suspension term ends. Are you able to facilitate that through this format as well?

MolliWog, I can assist you with your termination. I would like to also inform you that the Early Termination Fee is applicable from the day you started service with us, so the recommendation to suspend the services was not nefarious. Your Early Termination Fee currently stands at $295 for the internet and $150 for the voice service totaling $445. Further, you must return your HughesNet modem, power supply, and radio in good condition within 45 days of cancellation date or be charged a $300 Unreturned Equipment Fee ($100 for the modem and power supply and $200 for the radio transmitter). 

 

If you are ready to cancel I can process the request. Please send me your address via a private message so we can make sure we have the address to send a return kit. Here is a link with more information on the equipment that needs to be returned, http://support.hughesnet.com/sites/support.hughesnet.com/files/inline-files/1041328-0001_a.pdf.
