Scam Artists; Zero Support
Last November, I signed my parents (who live in an assisted living facility) up with this company, Town Broadband, for rural internet service and up until August, it worked relatively well. In July, Town Broadband contacted me to buy a new router and I specifically asked the person who called me about this (it was a girl) if this needed to be done right away because I would be going out of the country for 6 weeks starting in August and my parents would not be able to troubleshoot any issues that may come up without my assistance and the girl told me that it had to be purchased to replace the current router (which I had just bought back in March for $199 which I was told needed to replace the router I initially bought at the time I signed up last November for $399). I authorized the purchase and upon receipt, installed it for my parents on August 2 and at the time installed it, it did appear to be working, but about a week into my trip abroad, while talking with my parents on the phone, they told me it was no longer working. My parents are very limited on what they can do so I handle all of their affairs now and troubleshooting a router isn’t something either of them would be capable of doing. Upon my return home in September, I confirmed that the router was not working so I contacted Town Broadband for assistance--I called them and "John" told me I would need to open a ticket online (which I did: Ticket #56996) and not a soul responded to me to help. I called many times, followed up with E-Mails, and not a single person would respond. After a few weeks of not getting any response, I called and asked them to cancel the services all together and indicated that I wanted to return the router and was told I would need to talk with a supervisor and I would need to open another ticket (which I did: Ticket #57073) and to date, no one has called me to discuss. I have called their number so many times and have followed up with E-Mails but no one will even reply to them and the people who answer the phones there are not authorized to discuss the return of this router. I filed complaints with the Better Business Bureau and with the Attorney General's Office. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!
