Cancel my account without ETF
I have been writing to you by mail, online chat, phone, and B-- complaint (won't allow me to add the other two B's) since we signed up for your service and we still have gotten nowhere. We sent screenshots of all the downtime and problems we've experienced with our service from day 1. We want out of our contract without penalty and have been patiently requesting this since early last year. We were lied to about the service tier we purchased and what it included versus the lower priced package. We have not received what the higher price package promised, and we have provided evidence of this numerous times. The representatives tell us what to do to fix the issues and we have tried each one. The representative we have been in contact with on the B-- complaint keeps saying there is no record of any of our correspondence by phone, chat, or otherwise. He also said that our dish showed as misaligned and kept wanting to send someone all the way out here. It seemed ridiculous to me because that would cost the company more than just letting us out of our contract which was never honored by your company from day one. I finally said sure, I will schedule them to come out but if that didn't fix our issues than we need to start arbitration. So, I contacted the online chat to schedule. The first one just "hung up" on me and the second one was very rude saying our dish was perfectly aligned so we could not schedule a representative to come out. She then "hung up" on me and they called my boyfriend who is named on the account. The rep he talked to ALSO said our dish was perfectly aligned and his "fix" (they all seem to have one) was that we need to turn the modem off every 24 to 48 hours and should have been doing that the whole time. Nobody ever told us this of course. So, again, we tried their "fix" and put the modem onto a timer to go off every night. Same problems. No fix. We have had to pay for Frontier internet this entire time we have had HughesNet so that every time the HughesNet goes out we can switch back to the Frontier. Keep in mind, our Frontier internet only provides 6MB service, yet it often works better than our HughesNet which usually provides 180MB or so. We've explained from the get-go that we spoke at length to the woman on the phone when we signed up about what would happen in rain and snow. She insisted it may slow down a bit but not to where we would notice. We laughed because we were like "yeah, even if it slowed by 50 - 75% speed it would STILL be faster than our Frontier's 6MB service!" She never said no, it would absolutely shut down completely in wind, snow, rain, and have latency so bad you can't do a Zoom meeting or play simple phone app games even when the weather is great. We bought the higher tier package because it said we could stream HD, do Zoom meetings on higher quality video, play streamed games, etc versus the lower priced tier that said we couldn't do those things. We did our due diligence before signing up to be sure of good internet regardless of weather. If our internet service was good from HughesNet and we were just people trying to renege on our contract for no good reason, we certainly wouldn't be paying our bill month after month patiently waiting for a resolution AND paying for Frontier 6MB internet the ENTIRE time and still paying for it to this day. Name one good reason we would still be paying for our Frontier 6MB internet these 13 months if our HughesNet was reliable?? I've already read the contract, and know we have the right to be granted out of our contract with no ETFs due to deception and broken promises on your end. We've done everything on our end. How do we get out?? We've tried online chat, phone, postal mail, B-- complaint, and here. I read here on your forum that it is up to your reps on this forum as to whether or not you "believe" what we are saying. Does this mean you are independent parties? Thank you
Need proof that I signed a 24 month contract
I need a recording of my sales call that proves they were transparent about the 24 month contract. Never was I pointed to the user agreement, or told I was signing up for a 24-month commitment. I have zero emails confirming this commitment. Without this evidence, I will be filing a complaint to the Fed. Trade Commission that HughesNet is misleading and predatory. The commitment is not made clear, it is not documented to individuals clearly, the service provided is intermittent and does not match their commitment to me, and now they are trying to charge an early termination fee. Sounds like fraudulent practice to me and I believe the evidence on my end and within this community will verify that for the Fed. Trade Commission.
bait and switch from what the sales rep said, he said unlimited high speed data and no contract
Now im stuck for 2 years with a service with a ping and jitter that will give you the jitters. youtube buffers, forget gaming which i was told by the rep would be excellent for gaming.. Hughesnet you have one chance to make this right. I have text messages from sales with proof so they lied and mis represented hughesnet or something but i will not be another victim
