    Status:
    Answered
    I purchased an RV with a Winegard device for accessing the Internet. I purchased their mobile plan for $59 on 6/20/23. The plan stated you purchase 10gb for $59/30 days. After purchasing the plan, the device cease to work. Over the course of the 30 days, I called the company and emailed several times to get the device working. I succeeded in correcting the issues on 7/21/23. I checked my account and it stated I had never purchased a plan. I contacted the company explaining the situation, and requested a credit or a refund, preferably a credit, since I was unable to use the data due to the device not working. They stated per the plan, it expired 30 days from the date of purchase, so they were not going to give me a credit or a refund.

    The company is awful. im a technician thats been working on their stuff for 30 years.. they kept me on the phone for 6 to 7 hours, arguing with them about a defective satellite dish. They had a problem with bad LNBs years ago and theyre having the same issue again. Years ago, they would send you a replacement LNB. But now they want the whole dish back and they give you nothing but c*** abut sending a replacement. Their tech-support team will waste everybodys time and money. It doesnt matter if you give them step-by-step instructions on the diagnosis. Is Wineguard going to pay me $1085 for staying on the phone with them all the time? They refuse to pay the labor to change one of their dishes out because of their defective products. I guess everybody supposed to be grateful that they actually gave you a replacement..
