  This company apparently doesn't want customers. They refused service to me because they say I have a balance from 1999 which is 24 years ago! Ohio law states that a company cannot hold a person responsible for a debt which is over 6 years. From what I even remember back then, they gave me a cable modem that wasn't even remotely faster than a dial up modem so I cancelled my service with them, returned their shoddy equipment, then they claimed that I never returned the equipment. Terrible company. What is worse is that they have a monopoly on cable service in this area so I can't even choose another cable provider so I'm stuck with *** internet. Even if I did have a viable "balance" to them, I'm sure that they've written it off as any other company would've. What a joke...

  In regards to the above-listed complaint, please let me explain our policy. While we do not pursue court action for delinquent accounts after 6-8 years, we can collect any past due balances from a previous customer who contacts us to reconnect service. It is also our policy to run credit checks for all new customers and previous customers who have not had service with us within the past six months. We are happy to work with customers who have previous balances – we can set up a payment plan to spread the amount over a certain agreed-upon set of time. I understand that our Customer Care Representative tried to contact you last evening to discuss the options with you. We would like to work with you to get service started for you so please call our office and Alisa or another supervisor will be able to set everything up for you.

  I have internet, cable, and home phone through MCTV. For the past month plus we have been without internet, cable, and home phone. I have called MCTV over a dozen times. They have sent techs out. They determined it was a connection issue with the lines outside. The neighbors next door were having the same issue. They replaced the lines. I had to call back twice because the cable was not fixed after they were here. The internet has never been fixed-and is still not fixed. We have been without any internet for going on 2 months. I have called and asked to speak to a supervisor. One is never available. I want my bill credited for the extended amount of time we have went without service, and I want my internet fixed. My router reset itself and won’t allow me to connect-because of MCTVs connection issue. It’s a new router. They say it isn’t their problem but it very much is!

  In regards to the above-listed complaint, we have been doing some research into the issue. We are able to listen to the phone conversations over the last couple of weeks. Mrs.  called in on May 1 5^th and spoke with Adam. She told Adam that there were some issues with the downstairs TV and internet service after the new remote for the upstairs TV was programmed. Adam scheduled a service call for after 5pm on May 15^th. Joe was our technician who came to your home that evening and, among other things, he exchanged the modem, changed the connectors, and checked the signal levels. As far as we can tell, everything was working properly when Joe left your home.

  From our phone records for the phone numbers we have for your account, we found another conversation that took place on May 20, 2023 - one day after this complaint was made with the Better Business Bureau. Mrs. called in and spoke with our Customer Care Representative, Bobby. She told Bobby that her son had called in and made a complaint but Mrs.   wanted us to know that everything was working fine and there was no need for an additional service call. Looking at the bandwidth for your modem over the past few days, we see that it's running properly and has not had any issues.

  If you have any service issues in the future, please feel free to call our office. Thank you for being a valued customer since 1996.
