Want to cry over HughesNet

My bill is $150 this coming month. There's only two of us. Most of the time we have very slow speeds and can't watch Netflix or Amazon Prime shows. Just one or two an evening is all we are hoping for...

Hughes Net SUCKS period , cant wait till contract ends , have a problem .......call  another country where they read from a script , that really doesn't answer any questions , get someone in the U S A & just get **bleep** , gonna tell everyone the truth about this joke of an internet provider , wasted alot of money over the years on them , would be better going to town to the library to use internet than keep putting up with this garbage !!

Just one or two an evening is all we are hoping for. Got a "not enough bandwidth" message last night. Nothing was connected to the net but the tv. Nothing. 

I teach online 2 days a week and the last two sessions were horrible. There is nothing connected to the internet except for my LAN for the computer I'm using when I teach and yet the connection is terrible. 

HughesNet was beautiful and all I hoped for (a few glitches were to be expected) the first 20 days and now I just want to cry that we spend so much money on a service that has definitely not lived up to the hype. 

Oh and my usage meter thing that I downloaded to my desktop no longer works. It has some sort of malfunction. (Yes, I already posted that in another area.)

    Neither does twice posting a complaint on a support community, yet never taking advantage of the purpose of that community... the aforementioned support.  

     

    When you're having an issue with your vehicle, do you go to the dealership, walk into an area that's nowhere near the service department, rant for a while, then leave and go back home?  I doubt it.
