Recently a few months ago I started an account with ******************** and they was suppose to come out to my house and install my internet they did not. They rescheduled it a 2nd time and once again did not came out, they kept giving me excuses and had to reschedule and I was suppose have it on yesterday because the tech himself called me and told me he would come out since he "resolved" the issue! And now they're trying to say that he tried to call "which he did not call" he never showed up! I've been lied to for the 3rd time and I want to file a complaint against frontier!! I would hate to take this ** In court but I didn't appreciate some of the agents attitudes towards me! And I believe frontier has the right to make it right with me! I needed.

Six months ago I called Frontier communications to upgrade my speed since I was having problems with it. They told me they couldnt help me. So I found another internet provider that could provide me with better speed. I then called Frontier to cancel my service with them. I was then hassled for over an hour to try and keep my service. I was so upset I finally agreed to putting the account on vacation hold just to get off the phone. Then in August, I believe, the vacation mode expired. I was charged ***** for a service I wasnt using. The modem was not even plugged in. I called to cancel the service and asked for a refund, which, after speaking to a couple of different people, they finally agreed to the refund, which I was told would show up in my bank account within 10 days. After 10 business days I still did not have the money, so I once again contacted Frontier. The woman I talked to said she had no record of the arrangement made by the man I talked to previously. I was not happy and told her I was promised a refund of *****. She finally agreed to put it through and said I would receive it in ***** hours. That was a week ago. I contacted them again today. I was told I was being charged a $50 restocking fee for the modem I am sending back. So I would be getting approximately $35 within 2 weeks. I believe I should receive the complete $*****. No one seemed to know what they were doing. This is terrible, terrible customer service.Business Response

Frontier Communications changed the platform for FontierTexting without any warning on August 31st. As a result, we lost the bulk of our old text messages. There are other aspects of the text service that no longer work either. I have spent hours on 9/1/23 and today on their chat service, only to be passed from one department to another and none of the staff seem to know anything about the Frontier ************ or which department is in charge of it and can fix the problems. I am the business owner and short of cancelling my now 12 year old account with ******************, dont know what else to do. They are just incompetent, This is not the first time I have had issues with Frontier. Multiple times over the years but have been hesitant to switch.Business Response

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
1) The transition to the new platform occurred without any warning2) The problems at the time were brought to Frontier attention via their CHAT and via phone (spent hours on this): was advised that it will be fixed within a few days. Has not happened yet. There were other issues too such as loss of auto reply. Also the number of letters allowed was cut by 1/3. So it regressed to an inferior service
3) New problem that came up was the service stopped working for one whole week. Contacting frontier via Chat and phone on a daily basis was completely futile. They finally told me to do a 10DLC registration which had been done previously and several days after redoing it, the service was back up again.
4) ********** did not tell Frontier that all is ok. They called in the middle of clinic and we advised them we have nothing to add to our previous complaints as they have not yet been fixed.
Overall, Frontier service is way below what is expected of a telecom company and I have had multiple of them in 35 years of having my own phone service across multiple states....

I have reviewed the business response and accept this resolution for THIS PROBLEM ONLY... They are still not a recommendable communications company , with poor customer service, poor communication to clients when they make drastic changes, and their representatives are not helpful or knowledgeable and primarily function to pass the client to other departments like hot potato.

I wanted to file a complaint on Frontier communications, internet provider. My family and I bought a camp in *** **. There is no cell service or internet there. The only provider is Frontier. They were scheduled to come set up internet on Friday September 1,2023 between 8am-12pm. I took off from work and drove up with my two small children 1.5 hours. Well no one came. We waited all day until I drove to find service. I had not received a call but rather a text to confirm service September 2, 2023, 8am-8pm. Again, no one came or called. I drove to get service around dinner time. I called Frontier who tells me they cannot get in touch with the service men because the customer service department was closed. They told me to call Monday. I stressed the fact that I waited two days without any one calling. I risked my familys health because if anyone got hurt, I couldnt reach or call anyone. I then called multiple times wasting hours for them only to put me in the back of the line for service set up which is September 26 or 29. I cannot take off from work again to go up there and wait. I asked for the service fee to be at least waved and one person told me yes and another one said no. I feel that this company is taking advantage of rural areas and monopolizing on this. It should not be legal.Business Response

Friday 8/25/2023 around 12:00pm, my fiber internet service stopped working. There was a possible outage in the area. I called 8/26/2023 and spoke to a person, did all the necessary firsts steps to resolve the issue. I had a service ticket created to have a tech come out. 8/27/2023 my ticket was canceled without notification, by their computer system, because the outage nearby resolved. Even though it had already been discovered the issue was the line underground from the junction across the street to the box out back of my house. After numerous attempts of chatting and calling, the automated system made me a service ticket for 8/30/2023, this ticket was also canceled without notice. I called again and the automated system set me another appointment for 9/4/2023. Each time I communicate with the humans they claim to have no recollection and they have no techs available. I had a 3rd appointment today 8/31/2023 from ****. At 10:00am I checked the status and it said "completed" when no person came to the house. I work remote. I have missed 5 days of work thus far and cannot get a human on the phone to resolve this. Each person I spoke to in the past few days assures me it won't be canceled, assures me there will be no more confusion. I was offered $2.17 for the inconvenience of the service being out. I feel I deserve more compensation. Not just loss of wages but for all the incorrect actions and lack of communication. A manager is expected to call me within 2 hours (8/31/2023 10:30am - 12:30pm. This is completely unacceptable, unprofessional, negligent, and as disrupting as I can think of. However they decide to compensate me it should be equivalent worth of what I am continuing to loose. They now claim the only available appointment now is 9/4/2023 from 1-5pm. By then I will have been without any service person assessing my issues, and without connection to my job, for 11 days!Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
I was offered (and I received) a credit to my account for $39.89, which I will agree does cover the loss of use of services. I do not agree that this resolves all that I endured during the 10 days I was without service. I included screenshots of correspondence with Frontier, being reassured time and time again, apologizing, etc.My concerns are that I am a remote employee. I was without connection to my job from Fri. 7/25/2023 12:00PM until 9/4/2023 1:00PM causing tension with my superiors as well as lost wages, not to mention the stress and anxiety I endured for more than a week while trying to reach a solution.
When the technician arrived issue was corrected in less time than it took to get a human on the phone. I switched from cable to fiber specifically to avoid this situation. It is absolutely unacceptable the way all of this was handled. When my appointment mysteriously got canceled (more than 1 mind you). I call to find out why and the automated system tells me there's no outage in my area (the reason the 'automated' system canceled my ticket). I call back, the automated system detects my service is out, makes me another ticket and cuts me off. This happened many times. I had to use the chat feature just to get a human.
I was provided a direct contact extension with Frontier, ***** is her name. We spoke briefly 9/8/2023 but it was a bad time for me. I left a voicemail Monday 9/11/2023 5AM citing my availability etc. I also inquired what 'number' she would think is appropriate for compensation to me for everything? She has not returned my call. Shortly after I received the $39.89 credit, and then I received this response from BBB.
ZIP file of screenshots are included, merely to show the run-around treatment I received.

Without a consecutive report of the ticket numbers and their creation dates, the tickets mentioned in the reply are not all tickets involved. It appears that it may be fabricated and or deceptive.
I understand per policy, loss of wages is not compensated. I do feel that I am owed something more. Please understand, when automated systems schedule and cancel tickets for service, often without notice, and I was calling to get a human. The only way to get a "human" was the chat feature and this ended the same way. Nothing about changing tickets to deferent things. Communication was ridiculous, and often non-existent. This has caused more trouble than help.I appreciate your consideration to compensate me further for the incredibly dysfunctional and chaotic situation that was brought upon me.

Thank you for referring the complaint of ******************************* to our office for review. We appreciate ******************** bringing this matter to our attention.
The Complaint states that:
******************** advises that he ordered a ********** subscription from Frontier and added the *** Sunday ticket on August 11, 2023. After contacting Frontier on August 29, 2023, he was informed that the *** Sunday ticket add-on subscription was not showing on his account.
******************** advises that on September 1, 2023, he called Frontier again after the promotion had ended and was told that the *** Sunday ticket was indeed reflected on his account. His concern was that he would not receive the promotional rate, and he would like to be credited for the difference between the current price and the previous promotional rate for the *** Sunday ticket.
Frontier has investigated the above statements and offers the following response:
Frontier advises that the order was issued on August 11, 2023 to have the ********** subscription added to Mr. ********* account for a monthly rate of $57.99. Frontiers system is unable to display any add-on subscriptions, but once the September 13, 2023 bill generated, it showed the one-time charge of $299.00 for the *** Sunday ticket.
Frontier spoke with ************************************ on September 18, 2023 and informed her that the *** Sunday ticket billed out at $299.00. She advised Frontier that the agreed-upon rate was supposed to have been $289.00, so Frontier issued then a credit for the $10.00 difference. The customer was satisfied with the resolution.

There was miscommunication, my husband still does not have *** Sunday ticket WITH RED ZONE. This was a part of the package he initially signed up for on 8/11/2023 for the price of $289. This matter is not satisfied.

Customer Name: ****************************;
Thank you for referring the rebuttal of ******************************* to our office for review. We appreciate ******************** bringing this matter to our attention.
The Rebuttal states that:
******************** advises that when he ordered a ********** subscription from Frontier on August 11, 2023, he signed up for the *** Sunday Ticket at a discounted rate of $289.00 that should have included the *** Red Zone at no additional cost. Although the *** Sunday Ticket is available for him to view, he still doesnt have access to the *** Red Zone.
******************** advises that he had to pay extra to add the Red Zone to his package and would like credit for the $70.00 difference.
Frontier has investigated the above statements and offers the following response:
Frontier advises that prior to August 22, 2023, the promotional price for the *** Sunday Ticket was $249.00 without the Red Zone and $289.00 with the Red Zone. ******************** was billed $299.00, which is the price of the *** Sunday Ticket without the Red Zone that went into effect after August 22, 2023.
Frontier advises that since ******************** placed his order on August 11, 2023, he should have been billed at the earlier promotional price of $289.00 with the Red Zone included.
Frontier advises that a $10.00 credit had already been applied to the account, so an additional credit in the amount of $60.00 has been processed. That comes to a total credit of $70.00.
Frontier spoke with ************************************ on September 27, 2023, advised her of the above information, and provided her with the remaining balance on the account. She was satisfied with the resolution.
We trust that this information will assist you in closing this complaint. We regret any inconvenience that Mr. and ********************* may have experienced as a result of the above matter.Customer Answer

I canceled my service 3/26 and paid the final bill. I moved into a new apartment 3/25 that had free internet and cable included. Then my house was sold 4/14 frontier is trying to charge me from 3/26 until 4/25.I have screen shots of the representative telling me that a mistake was made, and they see me canceling 3/26 but that it was not put in until 4/6 which i do have an email of disconnection for that date even though i canceled before. I would like what was said they would do, and the report update waived. Otherwise, I will file against them as well and show the screen shots. Shame on them for trying to make pennies on the dollar from former customers thinking it is too small for someone to take action.Business Response

Also please see screen shots the company admitted I canceled I canceled on the 26. I also went through my phone records no call was made 4/6 it was done 3/26. Also I was told that they would have the collection agency they reported me to for *****'s on the dollar would be cleared and taken care of. Please reach back out, I heard no call back since speaking to the initial representative that said they would look into this.
