      The Ritter tech was in the middle of installing extension lines to our rooms when I noticed he was using Cat5e cable. We need direct hookups because their Wifi isn't strong enough. When I noticed the 5e cable I told him we needed Cat 8 since he's hooking it up to the fiber modem. What good is fiber if you're just hooking it up to old tech cables? I told him ok but if it's not giving the speeds we need then they'll have to replace what he's installing. He then said refused to continue at all, he knows it's not as effective as Cat8 or even Cat 6! I told him I want the fiber speeds were paying for and 5e cable isn't effective, it's old tech! The tech just gathered his stuff walked out. His supervisor and manager called but not helpful. I asked for upper management to contact me. No wonder people complain about their *********** speeds, they're connecting sub-par cables to their high speed fiber! They had a 5e cord connecting our wall fiber connection to the modem, that was slowing down the already slow internet as well. Every professional installer I talked to said they should use Cat 6 at the very minimum with Fiber. RITTER needs to know this because it hurts their reputation when they use old tech cables with their high tech fiber. I'm still waiting for someone with corporate to contact me to resolve this! What good is fiber if you're having old technology Cat5e connecting it? Meanwhile, I have cords all over the floors connecting the modem to our computers because their wifi isn't sufficient for high gaming speeds and the tech didn't install our wall hookups.

      Re:BBB# ******** *************************


      This letter is in response to BBB ticket # ********, *************************, regarding the request to install five (5) Ethernet outlets to support internet gaming.

      **************** is an active customer of ********** and currently subscribes to our 2 gig internet speed package.

      On February 2, 2024, **************** called to request five (5)outlets to be added to her existing service for Ethernet connections.

      Although it is not our standard policy to wire Ethernet outlets, we were willing to make an exception to accommodate the customers request and scheduled a technicians visit for February 8th. On February 8th the technician called ahead of his visit to give an estimated time of arrival and spoke with ****************. Per the technicians notes,**************** inquired about the wiring that was to be used. The technician explained that he was installing Cat5e wiring, detailing specifications including the transfer rate and assured her that it was sufficient to support her 2 gig subscribed package. When the technician arrived, he was shown where the outlets were to be added. As he started the work, **************** continued to question the wiring to be used asking if it was fiber optic. The technician again explained the capability of Cat5e wiring to support her services and noted that *************** became upset-demanding upgraded wiring and threatening to cancel services if she was not accommodated. The technician then explained that due to her dissatisfaction with the wiring to be used, he would not be able to complete the work she requested.

      The install technicians supervisor and manager also spoke with **************** to detail Cat5e wiring specifications and on March 20th,our VP of Field Operations, *******************, spoke with **************** and explained that although we did attempt to go above and beyond our standard installation practice to satisfy her request, it would now be advisable for her to employ a low-voltage or structural-wire contractor to install the wiring to her specifications and conditions.

      At **********, we consistently strive for customer satisfaction and meeting our customers needs for ********** provided services. We will continue to focus on making sure Ms. ******* concerns are addressed as well as continuing to strive to provide her with the highest quality of services.

      Sincerely,
      **********

      The response from Ritter is not accurate.  First untruth by Ritter is that they assume it's only for basic gaming.   It's not just for gaming, it's for business.   My husbands company requires high speed, reliable connectivity.  I require it for my personal business as well.  My college children require it for very competitive gaming, trading and for school.  The nonchalant attitude I get from upper management at Ritter is embarrassing!  

      Initially, when I ordered this service in Nov, I told them we needed the full 2g speed and worst case if the wifi wasn't sufficient that we would need direct outlets.  I spoke to their manager in Dec ************************************************** at least 4 rooms.  He agreed to cover half the install cost. He even emailed me the splitter to purchase because Ritter did not provide the splitter.  This information is well documented in their files that we needed ethernet connections and they agreed to install it.  They agreed to it and were here at my home for 3 hours preparing the ethernet install until I saw they were using Cat 5e cables to connect to try fiber optic!

      The Ritter install tech must be friends with the upper level VP that's handling this complaint based on how he is handling this.  

      I'm filing a further complaint with the *********** **** of ***** and Commerce,  FCC, etc. and will have them obtain all of the system notes that Ritter has on file.    It's outrageous how Ritter management has refused to work this out.   

      Customer response

      04/01/2024

      Cat 5e does not provide the speed we pay for.  Professionals know this.  Simply pull up the stats.  

      Additionally, the tech absolutely did NOT tell me this was what he was installing until I looked and pointed it out! I hope every conversation I've had with Ritter has been recorded because I was clear about what was needed up front.  Why on Earth would anyone waste time, over 3 hours of my time if I had known he was trying to install something sub-par? Anyone in the industry knows Cat5e is sub-par to use with fiber.  It's the bare minimum for basic use.   It will be interesting to see if someone higher up at *********** will recognize the issue with using sub-par cables to connect as needed ethernet to their state-of-the-art fiber.

      This letter is a follow-up to ********** BBB ticket # ********.

      Wiring Ethernet is outside of the scope of our normal business practice and is not necessary for delivery of our services to the customer. As outlined in the previous response, **************** should seek to hire a low-voltage contractor to complete the work to her specifications.


      As there is no further action required on our part, we consider this matter closed.

      We had Ritter installed august 2022 for internet service we always had trouble with our service the wires outside were hanging so low when wind blowed the wires just swayed very dangerous for wires to be that low . We found new service around may 2023 and disconnected Ritter communications they told me the man would be out there the next Wednesday to disconnect from pole and to get all equipment he picked everything up and he was even mentioning the wires were way to low to ground and he disconnected all wiring . I did not have a balance when I disconnected services and approximately a week after the equipment was picked up I received a bill for $131.50 for another months worth of service. I told the lady when I called I actually should have a credit on my account which she responded no I owed another month I didnt even use the service it was horrible. I am still getting letters about this amount and they are sending to collections. I dont owe this amount to Ritter .

      Re: BBB 20427627

      This letter is in response to our former customers dispute regarding a balance owed to Ritter Communication after disconnecting services in May 2023.


      Ritter Communications services are billed one month in advance, with the billable charges beginning on the ninth day of each month and ending on the eighth day of the following month. Any service changes made during the month that generate charges or credits will appear on the following billing statement.


      Once a customers services are disconnected, it takes two additional billing cycles to finalize an account. The next statement reflects any prorated credits or final billable charges. This allows the customer to submit payment if needed and return equipment if necessary. The final statement will then be rendered and if required, collection efforts will begin.


      On April 9, 2023, Ms. ********* April 2023 billing invoice in the amount of $112.00 was mailed on April 9th with a due date of May 1st. Though the due date was May 1st, Aprils invoice covered billable charges from April 9th May 8th.


      On April 13, 2023, Ms. ********* account went into a non-pay suspend status because of a past due balance in the amount of $60.00.
      On April 13, 2023, ******************** processed an online payment for $60.00 to have services restored from non-pay suspend status. The restoration of services caused a $50 reconnect fee to be billed on May 2023 invoice.


      On April 24, 2023, ******************** called Ritter Communications to request her account to be closed and equipment picked up.  On May 3, 2023, all services were disconnected,and equipment retrieved by a Ritter technician. Due to the disconnect order being completed around the same time as our May billing was being processed, the prorated credits of disconnected services were not applied until June 2023 billing statement.


      The Final bill amount of $131.50 reflected on the June 2023 bill statement.  The final charges were for services rendered on April 9th April 24th, and a reconnect fee due to services suspended and restored on April 13th.


      Thank you for the opportunity to address and respond to our former customers BBB concern.

      Ritter refuses to update it's "remote" service areas to cost equivalent internet speeds/latency. Those of us that fall into the previously mentioned category are still stuck with DSL 20 years later. Ritter has a monopoly on the region and refuses to let any competition come in and update our infrastructure. We are also paying more per month for this terrible internet than we would be for high speed internet within the city limits right up the road.

      This letter is in response to BBB Ticket ******** received on August 3, 2023, from Ritter Communications customer *************************************** concerning lack of competition and infrastructure improvements.  


      Mr. ********* complaint states that Ritter Communications actively prevents competing service providers into the Ritter service area and that we have made no infrastructure improvements in the last 10 years. This is, in fact, not the case. Competing service providers are allowed to deliver services if they so choose and we have proudly invested $14 million dollars in the last year to improve our ********* areas network quality. Also, we are excited to have recently accepted a ***** for the Shelby ****** area in Millington that will ultimately allow us to provide fiber optic internet with speeds up to 5 gig. Although the timeline for upgrading to fiber optics has not been established, we have confirmed that Mr. ********* address will be included in that future upgraded area.


      Customer satisfaction is ********************** top priority, and we are 100% committed to providing reliable service to all our customers and quickly responding to service affecting issues that impact the customer experience. We will continue to focus on making sure Mr. ********* concerns are addressed as well as continue to strive to provide him with the highest quality of service.

      This letter is in response to ************************ concern regarding debt owed to Ritter Communications per credit reporting agency.

      ************************** account status with ********************** is currently inactive as of June 7, 2022. At the time of disconnect, there was a past-due balance owed for services rendered and the following billing cycle shows she was billed an additional $164.24 for unreturned modem equipment. Our records indicate that a payment of $214.40 was received September 7, 2023, and we have confirmed that the equipment was picked up at the residence by our install technician on September 9, 2022, when the new tenant installed services.

      As of Monday, July 31, 2023, the equipment charge has been cleared and the credit reporting agency has been updated with this information. We advise that it may take up to 90 days for the credit agency to reflect updated information.

      Thank you for the opportunity to address and respond to ************************** concerns.

      This letter is in response to our former customers concerns regarding Ritter Communications policy and procedure for billing,prorates and inactive accounts.   

      Ritter Communications services are billed one month in advance, with the billable charges beginning the first day of each month and ending the last day of the same month. Any service changes made during the month and that generate prorated charges or credits, will appear on the following billing statement.

      Once a customers services are disconnected, it takes two additional billing cycles to finalize an account. The next statement reflects any prorated credits or final billable charges. This allows the customer to submit payment if needed and return equipment if necessary. The final statement will then be rendered and if required, collection efforts will begin.

      On October 27, 2022, the customer placed a request for his late fathers account to be closed effective immediately and the cable TV services merged with his account located at the same address. Due to the disconnect order being dated and completed after our November billing had been processed-his fathers prorated credits of disconnected services were not applied until the December 2022 statement. The disconnected prorates applied to the December statement left the customer a balance of $10.45 which was paid on December 12th. The fathers January statement shows a $0.00 balance.

      After the sons request in October to transfer his late fathers cable TV services to his Ritter account, no further payment was received on the sons account causing the account to go into non-pay suspend status on January 10, 2023. The services were completely disconnected on January 17, 2023 and in addition to the unpaid balance, there were unreturned equipment charges billed on the March 2023 statement. Our records show that the customer has now returned the equipment, charges were reversed, and the account balance is at zero. This will now close-out the customers account with Ritter Communications.

      We cancelled internet and phone service with Ritter Comm. on Nov 23,2022. Ritter would NOT release/port my phone no, to new carrier resulting in NO phone service entire Thanksgiving weekend into the following week resulting in us having to get a new phone number. This resulted in major issues with authenticating many *** ****** Credit accounts, etc..Seems like they were holding my number hostage. Now it is Feb and Ritter owes us a refund of $6.27 and in spite of many phone calls, talking to many people, and promises to expedite request, it is 3 months later and we have NOT received our money. Now it seems they are holding our money hostage. It was expected of me to pay my bill to THEM within 3 weeks, and we did so without any late fees for 15 years. I expect my refund NOW.

Any service changes made during the month and that generate prorated charges or credits, will appear on the following billing statement.

This allows the customer to submit payment if needed or sets the expectation for the credit amount. The final statement will then be rendered,and any remaining credit balances are distributed to the customer in the form of a check that is mailed out.

      On November 23, 2022, our customer placed a request for all services to be disconnected on Tuesday, November 29, 2022. Due to the disconnect order being dated November 29th and after our December billing had already been completed-the prorated credits of disconnected services were not applied until their January 2023 statement. The prorates from the November 29th disconnect date gave the customer a credit balance of -$6.27 on their January 2023 statement. This credit carried over to their February statement which was their final.

      Our accounting department has issued a refund check for the full -$6.27 that was mailed-out on Thursday, February 8th.This will now close-out the customers account with Ritter Communications.

We do understand her frustration during the process and have applied a credit amount of $ ******.

      On August 6th 2022, the lights went out in our house around 9:20 am. Not only did the lights go out, the fan cut off, along with the fridge. We went outside to see if anything was out of the normal, and noticed a guy in a Ritter uniform on the pole. We asked him did he do something to cause the outtage. He became confrontational, jumped in his truck, and left. Due to the companies being closed, we called a local electrician on Aug 7th who determined it was a "loose ground due to low voltage on one side juxtaposed to the other side on the breaker box where it connects from the pole to the house." Monday (8/20/22), I went to main ****** of ************************** and explained the situation at hand. Southwest sent the maintenance crew out to assess the situation, where it was determined that "Ritter must have knocked a wire loose that caused a power outtage in the house.' We then reached out to ****, Manager of Operations at Ritter to inform him of what Southwest had discovered. Both companies have placed the blame on one another and are refusing to cover damages. The damages sustained were a dyson fan that no longer works, sockets and reception had to be replaced, along with the purchase of a new fridge. Below I will attach the bill for the electrician who replaced the sockets and fixed the reception, along with the bill for the fridge. Due to costs, we have been unable to replace dyson fan, but can give you costs from a local lowes or *********** We are requesting the BBB review this claim, so that we may be reimbursed for the fridge, cost of the electrician, as well as the dyson fan.

Mr. and Ms. **** are currently subscribed to *******' 200 mbps download speed for $104.99 per month. Each interaction with our customers is documented and our records indicate that prior to the BBB action that was filed on September 22, 2020 there were five (5) reported internet issues over the last 12 months with all but the most recent, Trouble Ticket # XXXXXXX, resolved and closed with the resolution notated. The most recent Ticket # XXXXXXX opened on September 10, 2021 is currently active with high priority and a referral to our engineering and maintenance division for further diagnosis and resolution. On September 28, Ritter Communications' Technical Support manager ****************** spoke with Ms. **** to update her on the current Trouble Ticket's resolution process and to let her know that we have applied an account credit of $104.99 for her trouble and inconvenience. Until this issue is resolved, we will keep Mr. and Ms. **** updated on our progress and continue to focus on making sure that their concerns are addressed. Thank you for the opportunity to respond to and address Mr. and Ms. ****'s concerns. Sincerely, Ritter Communications Consumer Response /* (3000, 7, 2021/09/30) */ (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.) Sadly the Manangment team at Ritter has missed the point. We are painfuly aware of how many times the internet has gone down. (We also know what services we pay for) We did not ask for any credit. What we want is the issue resolved. Now Ritter has told us we don't need to keep calling when it goes down they are aware of the problem. We will continue to call until this is resolved. What we want is the issue fixed and considering the amount of elapsed time since this started i am shocked that ******* Maintenance and Engineering team has not resolved this. And for the record we are not the only people affected by this. Ritter Manangment what day will this be resolved? Business Response /* (4000, 9, 2021/10/15) */ October 15, 2021 Re: BBB# XXXXXXXX ******** **** This letter is in response to BBB # XXXXXXXX customer rebuttal received October 4, 2021 from Ritter Communications' customer ******** **** concerning unresolved internet issues. As stated in the initial response-customer ticket # XXXXXXX was opened on September 10, 2021 and is currently in active status with high-priority and was referred to our engineering and maintenance division. Per our engineering department, the existing power supply components have been replaced and upgraded and any related internet issues in the Old Millington Rd. area should now be resolved. A new pole had been erected at that site with a new power supply attached however the transition from the existing power supply to the new one was placed on hold while we wait for Memphis Light Gas and Water to complete their work to transmit power to the pole. We have been monitoring Ms. ****'s modem activity and there have been no recent indications of dropped or intermittent service issues within the last 30 days. Although every effort has been made to take the appropriate steps to ensure that Ms. ****'s issues were addressed as quickly as possible-due to the nature of the issue multiple divisions within Ritter were required to diagnose and resolve the matter. We do understand her frustration during the process and apologize for any inconvenience. At Ritter Communications, we consistently strive for customer satisfaction and meeting our customer's needs for Ritter provided services. We will continue to focus on making sure Ms. ****'s concerns are addressed as well as continue striving to provide her with the highest quality of services. Sincerely, Ritter Communications Consumer Response /* (2000, 11, 2021/10/19) */ (The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.) Glad it fixed - Sad it had to come to this to get Ritter to do their part
