Latest edit: Excuse me bob, I DID TELL YOU OVER THE PHONE. I told you windows locked up at whatever % . Our first phone call,when you ask for any other issue. I told you it locks up at whatever % and you recommended to back things up as best I could with it shutting down every 5 minutes. IT WAS LITERALLY THE ONLY OTHER ISSUE I HAD. 2nd phone I even said won't update it get stuck. The only thing you got right is I didn't mention Minecraft. At the end of the day, I'm down $227 and still had the issues. Felt no difference when I checked it in. Frankly, I will rather be refunded that $100 than go with any service. This is a real experience people. Never trust 5-star ratings. CBU STUDENTS BEWARE! 2nd Reply: Replying to bob's remark, the windows is still not fixed. It still stuck at 61% when trying to update. Nothing changed (see attached photo. excuse me if it posted twice, Idon't know how yelp works), I still can't install windows Minecraft. My experience so far is Charged $200+ just to pop out the graphics card and run it a temp for 2 hours is ridiculous. Students beware! ORIGINAL: I will give credit, owner was fast to respond but the price did not match the service. If you are a student and it's an emergency, take a deep breath and search for more places. I didn't feel like I got the bare minimum. Over the phone said they "could" save/clean the graphics card or replace the fan but end up just replacing it out of pocket. The key word is could, but that business. Would not recommend.

See all

He was friendly, fast and very professional. I live in a two-story home and Chris was up on the roof no problem and had my Starlink installed super fast. He also helped me with the setup process so I could connect my devices. I highly recommend Empire Satellites. Chris was great and the price is a great value for the service Empire Satellites provide.

Practically everything in the follow up response by the owner is a blatant lie, further proving my…read morepoint that the guy has no integrity. 1. Original quote given did not specify a "covered cable" install. I would have declined right then and there. My router is located inside a room with no exterior walls. 2. I never "insisted" on using the mount that I bought. If it was indeed not suitable (which of course was not the case), it should have been explained exactly why. All this particular mount needed was a small block of 2x4 behind it, to clear the edge of tile roof. But Chris was too lazy and rushed to think it through. Instead, he claimed that it needed "an extension" (nope, it didn't), and proceeded to butcher my brand new fascia by driving six (!) lag bolts through the mount at haphazard angles. When I re-mounted the dish properly myself a few days later, I was appalled at the damage that was inflicted. 3. He is obviously not used to his customers checking the quality of his installs. He came up with "oh, it's not finished yet" line only after I showed him the photo of the shoddy work he has done, got up the ladder myself, and demonstrated how wobbly the mount still was. Before then, he kept insisting that the mount was installed perfectly. 4. Before he left, he did offer to install his "professional" mount for $100. It was NOT free of charge, as he claims. This sleazy used car salesman's last ditch upsell was the final straw for me. That's when I knew I had to post my review. I have nothing more to say - it is up to the reader to decide who is telling the truth. If you still decide to hire Empire Satellites to work on your home, be prepared to live with the consequences.

I called Hughes net to repair their equipment and they once again dispatched this company to repair my service. On my first service call, the technician never showed up and left my wife and I sitting around the house all day with no call and no show. I then called Hughes.net to cancel my service on the following Monday. Hughes.net assured me that this was an isolated incident and to give them another chance. I gave Hughes.net another chance and they then dispatched the same company to perform the repair. The original service appointment was from 8am-12pm. My wife worked from home in the morning and waited for elinkers to show up and they never did. I called Hughes.net and they contacted elinkers to find their location. The technician said that he will come to our house after his last appointment. The technician never showed. This company has a complete disregard for people's time and I almost feel as if they said they would come after their last appointment as a joke. I recommend if you need any communications service, you go somewhere else.

Please make it a point to visit this location by appt only. I walked in just to return a router and…read morenothing more. I figured it would not be too busy on a Sunday, I was so wrong. I was here about 90 min. There were about 15 customers ahead of me and they were all walk ins as well. And because a few of them wanted to either buy a new phone or watch, that caused a longer wait. There were only 3 employees working at the counters, plus, they had to take their breaks, so it was basically two employees working through the line of customers. I saw a few customers leave, they were tired of waiting. When I was finally called, the employee let me know an appt is always best because they are the only Spectrum store in Riverside. so it's a busy store. Side note, I was a little perturbed a customer walked in while some of us had already been there over 30 minutes waiting. He then walks past everyone and goes up to the counter and asks to replace a cable remote control. The employee gives him a new one and took the old one back. He then walked out. I didn't think that was right, he should have waited his turn like everyone else. So that chapped my hide a little. But I digress, the employees were nice, it's not their fault Spectrum doesn't hire more employees at this location. They do the best they can and they do take the time to help each customer with their requests. Just remember, if you walk in without an appt, especially on the weekends, expect to be there for awhile. Lesson learned for sure.

There were features I loved, but the longer I had it, it seemed to have some weird problems, too. For instance, it would overheat. The battery seemed to need charging far more frequently than advertised. And, strangely, my reception was not nearly as good as my husbands older S5, even when we were in the exact same location. This called for action. Twice I complained about these things (at another store), I was given a song and dance, and nothing was fixed. It wasn't until I visited this store that Ayne (pronounced eye-nay) took me under her wing and made things right. I now have a new Sim card and a new phone, it was still under warranty. All fixed, she even re-synced it up to my Honda once I realized I was too techie challenged to figure it all out. This young lady gave me undivided attention, exceptional service, took the time to show me some additional tricks, and even reviewed our current phone plan and found ways to get a better plan, yet save us about $30/month with their current specials. She is a great asset to this company and to this store.

I went in there the other day to purchase a phone and I will not be going back, the staff lacks proper communication, throws #s at you quickly and expects you to understand their plans with out proper clarification. A young girl (who works as a representative) there was throwing numbers inefficiently, seemed impatient when trying to explain and also did not give the proper calculations according to the plans and was very dismissive. It was frustrating to sit there and have my time wasted for hours. I had to calculate and figure out the proper plan myself when it is the sales reps' job! Please hire representatives with actual expertise or give them proper training... especially regarding this sales rep- as she was under-qualified for the simple basics. She struggled to properly explain the basics and would speak over instead of allowing the client to ask questions. To top it off her attitude was not friendly through out the process as well. Needless to say I walked out of the store and they did lose a sale that day because of the whole experience. I did try and speak to the manager regarding the rep but he brushed it off instead. Very frustrating experience! Please supervisors look into staff training as it makes or break the clients' experience.

I kid you not it was a 1 minute interaction. I was not gonna let my NFL Sunday ticket go that easily. I called satellite pros and spoke with Orlando. I told him about my experience and he educated me on not being able to have a line of sight for signal, he asked me some questions about the way my patio is facing and I gave him full detail to the best of my ability. He said that he would have no problem sending a tech out to give me a second opinion. The tech came the following day he was very detailed and said it was a 50/50 chance but he was willing to try, 40 minutes later the dish was installed and aimed at the satellites (apparently there's more then one) he showed me the device he used to aim it and there was all checks which he stated was a good thing the whole job took about a hour and my experience with the tech was great he covered everything and now I'm an extremely happy camper :) Orlando called after the install to follow up, which was a nice touch and shows that he cares and his customer service is outstanding!!! Thank you so much Orlando for being patient with me, taking the chance on the install, being very informative and welcoming me to Directv with a great experience.
