TLDR; you get what you pay for. If you have demanding network needs and want a well engineered…read moresystem with service to match, I can't recommend Alee and HiTek Telecom enough. I contacted Alee with HiTek Telecom to get a quote on a complete network job for my home. Not only do my spouse that I work from home, but I also do a lot of photography and video that I transfer back-and-forth on my network and into the cloud. I was tired of poor and drop connections with my consumer level Wi-Fi system. In addition, I wanted a local security camera system that I can control without relying on a cloud service. After receiving a quote and agreeing on the scope of work, I scheduled the installation. Alee came out on time on the date scheduled and we walked through the plan of installation and confirmed what all my needs were. Alee and his team worked through the day and completed the install job in an incredibly professional manner. The installation and the cable runs, and all of the final product was exactly as described. After the install, Alee walked me through downloading all of the software that I needed, how to access and navigate the system, how to navigate and operate the security cameras, and ensure that everything was working properly. To be sure, this was a relatively large install for a residential application. I wanted ethernet drops in every room of my house, a new professional grade network cabinet, in-ceiling WIFi network, and a new suite of security cameras. I couldn't have asked for a better end product. I am quite pleased with the attention to detail of the install and making sure everything was perfect, workmanlike, and care was taken in my home. Alee came back out to adjust a couple of things for me after the fact and install an additional camera. Again, he was on time on the scheduled day. The workmanship was just as good and the communication has been stellar throughout. I truly can't recommend HiTek and Alee enough. Top-notch product and top-notch service.

I'd recommend Shawn to anyone: his knowledge, efficiency, customer engagement, and outcomes…read moredelivered are outstanding. He's a networking and IT superstar. Costs: If you are upgrading your home network or other capability, and need to buy new/more gear, Shawn doesn't charge a markup on the equipment. In fact, once he's designed your solution he will provide you with links to the exact products required and let you buy them directly from the vendors if desired. Or he'll buy them himself and present you with the receipts. Hourly rate: With the skills Shawn possesses, his hourly rate is substantial. And it should be. However, you can still bring your project in at a very reasonable cost PROVIDED you can be a smart customer. By this I mean you must be clear on the capabilities you want to achieve--or at least be able to listen to Shawn describe what's possible and then make rapid decisions. If instead you want a lot of customer education, Shawn can do that too because he knows an immense amount about IT and can communicate effectively. However, it's a bit like paying for a neurosurgeon to teach you about the types of aspirin available to treat a headache. That doesn't make sense; get a nurse instead! In my case, my wife and I work from the house. My goals were to increase the reliability of our home network. We wanted better maintainability (so when the internet goes down I can rapidly identify the problem and fix it). We wanted better network security. I wanted to add a home security camera because of problems with car prowls, etc. And finally, I wanted to move our networking gear out of our super-hot furnace room to a cooler and cleaner location. This was a lot. Other vendors had previously failed to come up with an affordable solution--or any solution at all. Shawn showed us how to do it for a very reasonable sum. Once we had a plan, I was able to control costs by getting a carpenter friend to open up the wall and pull wires through to the new location for the gear. Shawn also kept costs down by allowing me to provide extra hands as he mounted gear on the wall, connected all of our wireless access points to the new console, etc. These steps all require two people. Shawn was willing to let me help and he even maintained a high level of wit and good-natured ribbing throoughout the long day of work. In sum: great outcome, great satisfaction, great price. Photo: New network system including: cable modem; device handling routing, security, network management, and recording of camera images; 24-port switch; and backup power supply.

I refused to pay so they sent a bill for 600.00 to my mom who was literally on her death bed and she paid it. It's the last I've heard from them. The remainder owed was sent to a collection agency.

I switched to T-Mobile from Verizon because I was told it would save me money and simplify my bill…read more At Verizon, I paid about $150 for two lines. After switching, my bill jumped to nearly $300 with multiple add-ons and services I never clearly agreed to, including home internet that has been unreliable from day one. The home internet service constantly drops in and out, making it difficult to work and use basic online services. What's most frustrating is that I feel like I was sold services I didn't actually need, and the final cost was nowhere near what was presented when I signed up. This experience feels misleading and extremely disappointing. I went in expecting honest information and left with a much higher bill and worse service than before. I would strongly advise anyone considering switching to carefully review every line item and not rely on verbal promises alone. I am actively seeking resolution and considering filing formal complaints if this issue isn't corrected. This situation needs accountability and better transparency for customers.

Look out Customers, this store is not legitimate & operates on a Bait & Switch policy! I am a…read moreretired professional & was looking to work within a retiree budget so went here. I totally regret moving from T-mobile to Metro. After being with Tmobile for over 10 years, they said due to changes they could no longer offer the $30 federal Lifeline rebate to me & referred me to MetroMobile which Tmobile owns. They said I could still get the $30 rebate per month at Metro. Same great service, right ? Not even close. In fact, It's been a total nightmare. Thinking it was time to migrate to 5G, I upgraded a new Samsung A13 phone at Metro. Flat out, phone was a 'lemon'. Could not stream Amazon Video on it, and the 5G never worked. I spent 2 weeks bouncing from Amazon to Metro tech trying to make it work. Finally I was told it had a bad chip or power problem. Worst part was no tech help from the store which is privately owned & could care less. I really & truly wanted my new 5G phone to work.. Returned to store to return the phone within the advertised, guaranteed 2 week 'Buyers Remorse' period. Here is where things really go downhill... A. I was told because I did NOT return the phone the SAME DAY I bought it,, they could only issue partial credits & then to add insult to injury they did not even give me back the partial $27 credit as Luis, the Manager promised, a discount that was supposed to be applied to my monthly bill. Never happened. B. Have tried numerous times to get resolution from Luis, the Manager on my returned bill credits promised..no cooperation. Bottom line: I lost over $50 in the A11 to A13 phone return transaction.. which wasn't even my fault, it was due to their bad phone. C. I decided to keep using my 1 year old Tmobile A11 phone. Why? Because the managers of this 'privately owned' substandard Metro store could not guarantee me that IF the factory replacement A13 phone they offered me for the bad phone turned out to be faulty AGAIN thenI was stuck with it.. they would not guarantee it. That's illegal. THIS Marysville Metro store is the worst. I have filed a complaint with T-mobile/MetroMobile & reported the Marysville store to WA state Attorney Generals office for fraud. ZERO stars.
