A little over a month ago, my internet service went out. The dish was damaged through no fault of mine. It cost me $62.50 for a technician to come and fix it. It still is not working correctly. I would send a detailed message, but the e-mail support option limits my words to way less than its needed to explain the issue. The technicians came out and replaced the dish (at least I guess they did), but did not come inside to test the connection to see if it was working properly and there did happen to be someone at the house on that day. They did not leave any paperwork that they had been here, nor did they ever speak to the person that was there, not when they got there nor when they left. My service has always been somewhat draggy at best so I figured everything was taken care of. I noticed a charge of $1.00 to my account two days ago and contacted them and they said that was just a verification since I had had to change my account recently. But my payments have been on time for the past two and a half years since it is an automatic draft so that they can make sure that they get their money. That prompted me to perform a speed test and I found out that my download speed was only 0.12. Again, my service has never been that fast so I had not noticed much difference when they replaced the dish. I called three times and talked to three different customer service representatives and, although all of them were as helpful as they could be, none of them helped to resolve the issue, other than telling me that since the 30 day warranty had expired and I would have to pay an additional $125.00 for another service technician to come out and align the dish. If they had checked the work they did that day and discovered before they left that the speed was not up to par, which they can also do without even coming in, there wouldn't be a problem. Somehow or other it is now my responsibility to pay additional money to have them come back and fix the problem that they didn't do correctly the first time.
