Just so you know the company will never provide you with a reps last name. You can ask for an id# and first name only will be provided ever.

Anytime you have a tech visit there is a possibility of charges. When you accepted the tos for those who didnt read it replacing the battery and any wiring inside the home is yours just as if you are buying a car and making payments you have to replace the battery or any other maintance. Its not covered by a warranty unless you have inside wiring maintance plan. In most areas is $90 for first $30 min 45 each additional 30 min. This is in your contracts read the fine print because its all there

My internet and TV stopped working so I called and they tried to fix it over the phone. They couldn't so they sent out a technician. The technician even came out on a Sunday to take care of it. It turns out that the router had stopped working through no fault of my own. So the technician changed the router and I was good to go. I was very pleased with the speed with which all of this was taken care of, however, I was very upset when I looked at my bill and noticed a $50 charge for the tecnhician to come out. I was not told about this fee. Although I probably would have said yes because I needed my internet, it is very frustrating that nobody bothered to tell me this fee would happen and even more frustrating that I had to pay a fee at all considering it was their router that was malfunctioning. Why should I have to pay to have somebody fix something when I didn't break it. If I did something to break it then fine. But I didn't. I am paying $50 for somebody to switch out the router. Something I could have done myself.

I have a great one to add to the pile.

I ordered gigabit FIOS, for four months I monitored the speed coming directly out of the wall. Getting about 200mbs, I even told the original installers something did not seem right and they were unconerned. After those four months I fainlly called a tech out and they ended up replacing the box on the side of the house, didn't even talk to me or ring my bell, but I happened to notice them doing it from my window. After that my speed has improved significantly. Later I get a charge for $50 for the service call, this blows my mind because the issue was obviously with the initial install and had nothing to do with any issue on my end. I think this is a pretty crappy way of doing business and I am pretty frustrated. Currently trying to get the charge removed but I am getting the run around from support.
