Repair Irony
So "Distinguished Professor IV" "GabeU" said that "That the second tech tried to remove the original pole was Kind." and that they are not required to move it. So then I asked why the first and second tech felt it was part of their job to move it? Which is the whole reason why the first tech did not complete the work, because he was unable to get the pole out!
So then "Distinguished Professor III" "Maratsade" responded to my question "So why did the first and second tech feel it was part of their job to move it?" by saying "Because relocating the equipment is part of their job." Seriously? Can you all get on the same page?
By the way, were you asked to sign off on the job, and if so, did you? No and No
You have complained about the relocation (as is your right as a consumer), but you have not said what redress you expect from the company. You may have noticed that no rep has replied to you; this may mean they are waiting for you to state how you would like them to address the situation. I just do not want to pay for a halfway complete job. Can I dig out that pole with a mass of concrete on the end of it? I'm sure I can and will have to. Can I dispose of it? Sure, I can haul and pay the dump fee. Just don't feel like I should be charged the full service fee for an incomplete job.
Also, I am just bitter that I am locked into a service agreement paying by far more than I ever had for internet service and receiving the absolute worst internet service in return. I would not mind paying the astronomically high bill each month (I knew what the price was when I signed up) if I was getting something in return. What I get in return is terrible internet service that is metered and ends up burning through most all of my data trying to load a webpage or buffering a video usually all before timing out and having to start all over. Yet Hughesnet customer support says "I show you're connected and are receiving great service." Garbage! There is obviously a disconnect.
I sympathise with your frustration. Hopefully a rep will get involved.
Next to your name it says "new member." That's a system given label. So is "distinguished professor." We have no control over the system labels.
