I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 11772647, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
Regards,Thank you for your response. 
 I see we have reached a stalemate.
 I would like to reiterate again.  That my concerns were the misleading sales
tactics you all use.  Under the law, you
cannot offer things and not provide them in which the way they were offered
(excluding additional charges and facts would be considered deceitful).   To say that a sales rep for your company does
not know to disclose terms and conditions of a service for a customer is asinine.
 I also, in that call said will
everything be included for that price so there are no excuses. 
Furthermore, you never addressed my customer
service issue.  Your representative did not
answer my request for manager, instead kept me on hold for over an hour.  Another representative completely
disconnected my call.  I found that to be
very unnerving.  Since, I am a paying a
customer to a service provider that I never signed a contractual agreement with,
which is another issue.  I plan to
continue on with my disconnection at the of this month.  I have offered a date of cancellation well
over 30 days. I will continue to share my experience about your company.  Hopefully, I will gain some traction thru
another forum
Thank you,

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 have never received any messages in early October until an email received this morning. The recent issue I called this past weekend is completely unrelated to the bad customer service issue ocurring in August 2016. I sent a clarifying email with the same specifics written in this complaint. It appears that the business is confusing my recent tech support issue with the bad customer service issue occuring on August 26, 2015. I just would like this incident to be known so that myself or another customer doesn't have to go through this again. Thank you.

The credit is appearing on the August 1, 2016 billing statement. Frontier did have an order placed to downgrade to the FIOS 50/50 but there was an error on the order so it did not complete.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
The initial call I made was earlier than the business suggest more toward the beginning of March 2018. Additionally, if they search the records they can add additional calls I've made over the year about the spotty service of the their internet. After the most recent call they had another gentlemen visit the house and come to find out the was a line issue first identified by the company in early February 2018. The company worker stated that when first discovered the original repair man didn't have a latter that was needed to fix the issue so it went unfixed until I finally pushed the issue that there service was not operating at all. I would be interested in someone investigating the company records of downtime details of their internet service. When [redacted]'s customers are without service they know and deploy resources to fix it. The company had access to downtime records and I firmly believe based on personal experience and those relayed to me by other Frontier customers that the service is routinely interrupted and they need to fix this. I researching the company on the Revdex.com site this appears to be a systemic issue as the Company settled and paid the State or Virginia for this same issue. There needs to be some consumer protection when the internet service we are paying for cannot be delivered in a reliable fashion.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.The information last posted here from Frontier Communications is not accurate. The post states,  "Mr. [redacted]’s refund was processed on June 28, 2017. I advised him that it does take seven to ten business days for the refund to reach him.  We trust that this information will assist you in closing this complaint.  We apologize for any inconvenience that  Mr. [redacted]  has experienced as a result of the above matter."  However, on July 3, I received a phone message from Debbie (from Frontier's "Presidents' office") stating that I 'need to "reach out" to Citibank at 877-855-7201  because they 'show that you should've received your prepaid card for the 20.60' (I have a .png copy of this transcribed message from my iPhone and have attached it here).  Nevertheless I called Citibank on July 7 because I had still not received the refund and  I was informed  they first received the request from Frontier for my refund on Thursday July 6 (not June 28) and that it would take 7-10 business days from the July 6 date before I receive my refund in the mail (in the form of a Citibank Visa gift card).  This is different from the various responses I received from Frontier.  In May 2017 when I first called Frontier and asked for a refund, I was told to expect a Citibank Visa gift card within 7-10 business days and I never received it.  Then, when I called again on June 2 2017 I was told  I would receive a Citibank Visa gift card within 7-10 business days and again I did not receive it. When I initially called Debbie on June 27, I advised her that, although I was pleased that it sounded as if she was going to help with the refund due me,  I was still planning to open a complaint with the  Revdex.com because (a) Frontier has twice promised the refund in the mail and I did not receive it, and (b) one day earlier a representative from Frontier named 'Wendy' claimed we had a 'bad phone connection' and promised to call me right back on a better line; she never did not call back.  On June 27, Debbie  (from Frontier's "Presidents' office") very nicely asked that I do not open a complaint with the Revdex.com because it would "delay my refund for approximately four weeks" and she  could process it immediately and I would receive the refund much faster without my contacting the Revdex.com.After many calls to Frontier, and subsequently to the  Frontier "Presidents' office" Citibank told me that the very first time Frontier authorized Citibank to send me the Visa gift card refund was on July 6, eight days after I filed a complaint with the Revdex.com and subsequently made several follow-up calls to Frontier Communications.I would, therefore, like to request this complaint against Frontier Communications  remain in an open status until I receive the refund due to me.  I will update this complaint with the Revdex.com once I receive the refund.

Frontier has reviewed the account of Mr. [redacted] and can advise that Frontier’s refund policy is that it takes approximately 90 days due to allowing any charges/credits to be applied to the account such as long distance calls, early termination fees, etc. This also allows the account to cycle out of our billing system, however as a courtesy, Frontier has submitted a request to expedite Mr. [redacted]'s credit balance in the amount of $46.69 and he can expect to receive this refund by mail within 14-21 business days.
