I was grandfathered into Frontier FiOS via ***. I can "not switch" to *** because the FCC divided the area and only allowed "one" FIOS company to provide service to my area. Frontier just changed my plan without notification and or lowering my bill. They "removed" approximately twenty-five channels that I have been receiving for years and now made them "subscription only" channels, but they don't tell you what the subscription cost is for each of the approximately twenty-five channels that they removed. Is it US $100.00, US $1,000.00 or US $10,000.00. for each individual channel that they removed from my standard package? And they don't tell you which channels are subscription channels in their "New" channel brochure.
The Complaint states that:Mr. advises
that he lost channels on July 31, 2020 that he believes he should still be
receiving. Mr.
indicates that Frontier is a monopoly internet and television service
provider. Frontier has investigated the above statements and offers the
following response:Frontier advises that we apologize for the inconvenience this issue is caused. Frontier advises that beginning March 20, 2020 we began providing several channels as a preview to customers that didn’t currently have them as part of their package. That preview was an effort on our part to keep customers educated and entertained while at home and social distancing. That preview ended 7/31/20. Frontier advises that the channel line up available at Frontier.com is an accurate representation of what channels Mr. is receiving with his TV Local package.Frontier is not a monopoly provider in any of its service areas.All areas where Frontier provides service are open to competition from any provider that chooses to provide service, including wireless operators and satellite operators.Frontier is committed to delivering the highest quality Internet in its often rural and high-cost service area.Frontier advises that we communicated with Mr. via email on August 5, 2020 to discuss the above information. Direct contact information was provided.
Frontier Communications sent me to collections after months of not receiving phone service. I had asked for a credit on my bill and nothing. After a 1/2 dozen service request had been made to get the problem resolve I had to terminate my services. After disconnecting, I asked for a credit to be applied to my account, so that I could pay the amount I actually owed rather than the billed amount for services I never received. I was told in Mar ch that a dispute ticket was still opened and a new bill would be sent out. On April 4th I was sent to collections for non-payment. I have been disputing these charges and working closely with Frontier to get services working properly since I run an in-home child care and a working home line is mandated to operate. I am now waiting for Frontier to respond and its August 3rd!! I can not believe that I owe the $261 after being told time and time again they are working on my account. I have been paying for a service for months without it working and never received a credit from the company even though a service provider was in my home 5 times and could not get services working properly. They are a fraudulent company that is incompetant.

After cancelling my service through Frontier I received a bill for 464.46 stating that I cancelled my services early because I had signed a new contract. I know I didn’t sign a new contract to up my service because I knew I would be changing services. They have now sent it to collections. I have called them and spoke with several people and been told I would have an answer in 48 hours. No one has contacted me to date and it now shows on my credit.

We have not had internet for three weeks. I called to report the problem which is a damaged box along the side of the road. A local farmer that rents property has hit the same box for the past three years when doing his crops. Every year the box Is damaged and they take a month to fix it. Anytime it rains or the ground is wet we loose our internet. I called frontier to report it now 3 weeks ago. They had. Contractor put a garbage bag over it. It’s not just our house it’s the whole neighborhood that lacks service. My parents are my neighbors and have no service when they called in they were told they were the only ones so it must be their house. I’m told the same thing when I call in We go through this every year. I’m on auto pay and pay my bill every month and I’m paying for service that’s not provided. And frontier doesn’t care. Their customer service is autrocious. Bankruptcy and restructuring is a waste of money disband the company as they clearly lack any leadership, honesty or customer service

I have had three repair call tickets in the past few weeks. 1st was to be here before noon as I take my Brother in-law to dialysis 3 times a week, so I told them I would not be here afternoon. I was assured they would be here by noon. I got back from dialysis about 3:45 and their truck was in front of my house. Man told me there was nothing wrong with the outside lines and I should try unpluging phones and repluging. After trying this I called back and got an appt for a 2nd repair man to come on a day when I don't have to take him to dialysis. He was here and replaced an outside wire, which apparently fixed my phone, but in the process all the phones on the 1st and 3rd, and my kitchen wall phone appeared to be disconnected. I caught him and told him this, and he said he had to go to another call but would be back. After waiting 3 hrs I called Frontier and they said the call ticket had been closed, and I would have to open another one, which I did. Now they are due to come Monday between 8-12 and I hope whoever comes knows about land line phone systems! However when checking on the call ticket number it was not recognized by their system. Further there is no way for me to get a hold of anyone of substance who works for this company. I am almost at my wits end. They are quick to collect payments on the 4 different phone lines I have, but leave us in the lurch when they are in the wrong. Please advise if I have any other recource if this 3rd call is a bust. What if any land line
alternatives do I have.
Thank you for referring the complaint of Mrs. to our office for review. We appreciate this matter being brought to our attention.

ZERO STARS IF I COULD . I called them on July 27, 2020 and they were going to upgrade my internet service on July 29. Received confirmation email from them including a bill. On July 29 the order for upgrade was cancelled. No reason given. Chatted online for 1.5 hours on July 29 trying to get an answer on why it was cancelled. No reason given. I printed off the chat and it was 18 pages of me simply trying to get a reason why it was cancelled. They rescheduled the upgrade and order for July 31. Today I checked again and it was cancelled. No reason given. We did not get any communication from Frontier on either occasion that it was cancelled.
This has been ongoing for many years but we have no other options in our area. Frontier will speak to you about upgrades and they never follow through. Our internet service from them is 3MBPS... that is horrible.
DO NOT GET SERVICE FROM THIS COMPANY. THEY HAVE 12, 000 COMPLAINTS TO THE Revdex.com IN THE LAST 3 YEARS. Their new CEO said the company is now committed to customer satisfaction. He is lying. Customer service reps are not helpful and simply say "that is not my department."
We canceled an account and transferred service to a new address for our business. We purchased a new property and added Frontier Internet and phone Acct # 8133509524. We used a different provider for our phones and went cloud based. I receive a collection call from a company that says we own Frontier $1100 cancellation fee! This was never explained to ME! I feel this was a terrible business practice and want this fee and collection credited immediately!!!!!!!!! Frontier never mentioned we would be charged this fee and I am being told by Nathan that I have to add 4 more lines in order for them to credit the fee and remove the account from collections.
Frontier had found that the customer had
established the account under *** on the date of July 3, 2019. The
customer had agreed to a bundles package of 4 phones with unlimited calling and
frontier broadband on a 12-month commitment.The customer had taken the 4 phone numbers to
a competitor on the date of October 28, 2019. The customer was billed an early
cancellation fee of $1,120.93 for terminating their contract before it was
fulfilled. The closing balance was left unresolved and was referred to an
outside collection agency on the date of January 6, 2020.The customer had called the Frontier executive escalations team
and was advised that the termination charges could be reversed and the account
under be pulled from the collection agency if they were to reestablish
4 lines and internet on a 12-month basis.The customer agreed to add four lines on a 12-month basis to have
the penalty fee credited and pull from the collection agency. The customer
added the four lines to a separate existing account under .Installation of four business lines on a 12-month commitment
completed on August 4, 2020. Frontier was successful in pulling the account
under *** from the collection agency and crediting the account on August 5,
2020. The account now reflects as resolved in full.Frontier contacted the customer on August 6, 2020 to advise the
actions taken to resolve the account and that this account is
considered resolved

Again no show, I call and they said the ticket was closed and do not know why. They then send me the new router through the mail. I hooked it up still no service. I call again for the third time. Got another ticket for 7-31-20 for 8 am to 12 Pm then another message changed to 1pm to 5 pm again no show. Call again they said technician was over loaded. Again got another ticket for 8-7-20

I called Frontier to order internet service in the beginning of March 2020, they took my social security, date of birth, phone number and service address. They scheduled a technician for installation on March 31st, the service offered was Simple Internet, $27.99 before taxes for 3 mbps. The technician showed up and installed a modem but given that I live in a rural area, he couldn't get the speed to 3mbps (he was barely getting 1/2 a mega bite per second). I called the next day and was informed that they couldn't service the area after all. They tried for 2 weeks to make it work but on April 17th, after speaking with 5 different customer service agents, the service was cancelled. The last agent I spoke to was Carl B (1-***). On July 30th I received a call from a collection agency telling me that I have an outstanding bill for my internet service. I was redirected to Frontier's billing department and spoke to Beon (department v_dss100) who informed me the service was current and I owed several bills that were sent to an inexistent address (***not sure who came up with that address at Frontier). Beon was able to verify the calls I made and the cancelled service but mentioned that I could still receive a bill because of some "processing" delay. I am hoping the Revdex.com starts an investigation about Frontier practices as I feel vulnerable when a company, that has all my personal information shows such a level of incompetence. Thank you for your time.

Frontier internet service has sold my household a 12 mb service and has not provided that service. We have had multiple technicians come to the house to repair the service, who have informed us that the service that was sold to us should have been denied due to our range to their closest service point. We have been informed that our service could be improved if the speed of the internet was reduced, but it has not been. Frontier has continued to charge us for a product that they have failed to deliver, multiple of their technicians have stated that the service could be improved if it was throttled. Frontier continues to reduce our internet connection and charge us more for a service that we have not received in a year and a half. We have no other choice in direct connect internet service.

that even though his speed was changed he is currently paying lower than he
would if he changed so he is better off with what he currently has. Frontier reviewed past
billing and found that Mr. has not had 12Mbps only 9Mbps, so no billing
adjustment was warranted. Frontier informed Mr.

Executive Relations :
Internet services were installed on May 15th at my residence by Frontier Communications. (Account # ***-5 TP N)
As part of the oral agreement over the phone with the agent, Mr. T (Contact # , ext ***), the installation charge of $75 + $10 would be waived. I was told to contact him when I receive my first bill.
Repeated efforts to contact T to get the above charges waived was unsuccessful. Similar efforts with Customer Services and Ms L at the Office of the President was also unsuccessful.
As part of my effort to substantiate my claim,
a) I'd provided to Ms L in the Office of the President a list of the twenty five (25) incoming and outgoing calls totaling 242 minutes between myself and Frontier Communications with a request to review the calls and also provide me with the corresponding audio files of the calls. The audio files has not been received to date.
b) I've been served with a disconnection notice effective 07/29/2020 for non payment of the installation charges.
c) I've also been additionally charged $9.60 for late payment of the additional dues. Ms L had specifically told me that late charges will be waived.
d) I'd also brought to attention that my son is on Medi-Cal program. At the time of installation, Frontier Communication had a special that states that if any member of the household participated in the Medi-Cal program, then there would be "Free Frontier technician installation" and a "Free Chromebook" will be provided. I'd brought this offer to the attention of the Customer Service supervisor.

I have had at least 10 tickets generated just this year due to my phone service. Every time it rains my phone shows the error message of no line. I have a disabled son so it is imperative I have phone service. The technician never comes to my house, he goes to the main box at the bottom of my street and the leaves me a message that he has fixed the problem. I would love to change phone company but unfortunately noone else comes out to where I live. I can never speak to anyone in the main office to get resolution. But it is ridiculous the amount of time I am without my phone. I have had over 100 trouble tickets in the last 5 years. More than people have in a lifetime. Please help me to get this resolved.

Been paying for internet at the same location for around 10 yrs and now they are trying to say I live in a congested area and there's pretty much nothing they can do to get my services up and running like they should be but they still want their money. Why should I have to pay for something that I am not getting

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. They had the internet working for 3 days on and off and now it is off again. Yes I do have other options of internet and they know as well as I do that satellite internet will not work any better in my area because of the trees. I tried it. Also the only other company that is even close to my area to provide internet service is Shentel and everytime I try to get service it says it is not in my area. I would not be as unhappy with the services that I am if it would not continue to go down hill like it has. When I moved in 10 yrs ago the services was really good then it slowly went down the drain. I was paying for high speed internet for several years and a tech came out and said I wasn't getting the speed that I was paying for they lowered it to a 3 and paid for that for several more years tech came out again said I wasn't getting that and lowered it again. So they over charged my internet for several years. I got so frustrated that I canceled the services a couple years back tried satellite and a little cloud come over the sky and it would go out. So I have to according to my custody agreement have a phone for my sons biological father to get into contact with him. I paid and got services from frontier back in my home and it was working good then again it started going back down hill I have been told they were going to upgrade the service in my area and here we are years later and still nothing. Was told by a frontier tech himself that the main box needed new equipment installed and they will not allow them to fix it. I am here again without the services I have been paying for and they just keep getting more rude everytime I call. The credit they issued is no longer going to work for me because the service works maybe 3 hours a day and thats on a good day. Its been off more then on since they issued the credit. IF they would just do the upgrades that the techs know they need they wouldnt be so many issues.

My landline phone # is ***. This phone is constantly non-functioning and has no dial tone. In the last 6 month the repair Service was called at least 6 time. The same problem is the box outside the house. They have replaced the box several time and also replaced the case of the box as well. Latest issue we lost dial tone on Friday July 24 2020. The repair person replace the box yesterday Monday July 27, 2020. Today we have no dial tone again. This is so frustrating and unacceptable service. Keep in mind I pay my bill in full even month and I am not getting the service Frontier is contracted to deliver.
