This review is not for the actual store but rather for the actual company and their customer service.
I applied for the new promo they had ( 1gb internet + their mobile service) which seemed a good idea. Man let me tell you, that was a terrible idea after all. Plan was supposed to be $65 a month and that's it. They told me installation was free. Free. Not that I'd be credited or anything like that. Free. I decided to go with them. I prepaid $80 because I didn't feel comfortable enough to give my ssn thru the phone. They said the $80 would go towards the next bill. All good till there. Installer comes on the 10th of February does the installation, all good. On the 13th of February I get my first bill. Damn that was quick, lol. Guess how much my bill is ( it was supposed to be under $68 in two separate bills, one for the internet one for mobile including taxes) ? Actual bill is $197and that's just the internet one. Can't wait to get my mobile bill. What ?! I call 'em up. The first rep doesn't do great job to explain my bill so I ask for a supervisor ( thinking they'd know how things work and would be able to help me). Her name Aynne , she couldn't provide me with her employer id but she gave me the "conversation id: 9425. Man she told me I could get more help in their website than actually talking with a supervisor at their billing department. Crazy. She told me that they charged me for the installation. It would reflect in my next two months or so! I told her that doesn't make sense, her response: bill is already generated. Damn. Ok.
197- 100( which I'll be credited someday)= $97. Again that's just for the internet. Aynne told me that there a partial charge 02/11-02/15 in the amount of $14. I asked her why she said you're supposed to sign up either the first of the month or the 15th of the month. Well, no one told me that. But still not a biggie. $97-$14= $83. Again ( I can't say this enough, just the internet, the mobile will be a separate bill), price doesn't add up. I told her I'm supposed to be charged only $48 max for the internet only. She again replied: bill is already generated, can't do anything about it. I told her, in their website and in their tv adds this was the plan they were offering. Aynne apologized but seemed like she couldn't or didn't know how to change it. She told me in the next month I should get a credit in the amount approximately $30. I guess I won't get the $100 credit for the installation next month?! She could even tell me the exact amount. And she's the supervisor of the billing department. When I told her that she offered to transfer me to the mobile department. OMG. What on earth could they do?!. Now I can't wait till my next bill. See that nothing has changed, call them again and hear from them : bill is already generated, can't do anything about it.
