Frontier internet provides phone and internet to my house I lost service for 3 days made two phone calls and got the run around for 4 hours on the phone I simply asked to get a tech out to my home to fix my internet as all my surrounding neighbors have there internet working fine . I was told that I would need to pay $75 for them to come out . After speaking to a supervisor I was told I would need to wait an additional 45 minutes to have her look into it she was extremely rude and did not care that I was on the phone for as long as I was and gave no reason as to why it would take so long to simply put in the request for a tech. I have never been late on my bill and have had service with them for 6 years I was told by her that it didn’t matter how long I waited or how much of a run around I got that I would not be compensated for my inconvenience of requesting them to simply send a tech out .
Thank you for referring the complaint of
*** to our office for review. We appreciate him bringing this matter to our attention.In the complaint Mr. expressed
concern regarding being without service for three days and making calls to
Frontier but receiving no resolution.Our records indicate a trouble ticket was
created on February 24, 2020 due to no Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) sync. On February 26, 2020, our records indicate a
technician was dispatched to the premise and replaced a bad drop. The trouble was cleared when the technician
departed.The customer stated in the complaint, he
was without service for three days, as of the 24th of February. A credit for the time out of service, from February
21st – February 26th was applied to the account on
February 27, 2020. The credited amount
is $13.25. Attempts to reach Mr. have been
unsuccessful.Should Mr. wish to discuss this
matter further, I can be reached at EXT***.Thank you,Felicia TExecutive Customer RelationsEXT ***FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS

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 still have no internet it intermittently comes and goes so far a total of 21 times with varying times on how long it took to come back on.
I spoke to Felicia T last week and she was suppose to get back to me last Friday but never did so I contacted her today and got ahold of her on 4th attempt. She said she is going to speak with whom ever she needs and would try to get back to me today march 3rd or 4th.
On top of all of this we had Fiber optic cable installed at my house on February 22, 2019 so that I could receive there Fios 100/100 which is what the Tech said he installed but somehow the main billing and customer service department still has me down as having dsl even though I paid $75 to have the new service installed last year. I do not under stand how the tech installs a service that I paid on my bill but they still keep telling me I don't have fiber optic and that I need to upgrade and that will take care of my problems last week the same tech was out and again verified that I do have all the needed components set up for the Fios and have since February 2019
I run a small business out of my home and have now been with out internet for 12 days and there has been no priority been put on to getting everything restored properly, let alone addressing the fact that they don't even know that I have fiber optic line already installed I have spent easily 5-6 hrs on the phone trying to simply get my internet restored and it has been nothing but a fight for a service that I pay for on time every month it is unacceptable and the fact that they wont give some sort of significant discount is also absurd I should not need to spend countless hours on the phone getting my internet back in working order or have to explain to them dozens of times that I already have the fiber installed. I am beyond frustrated with this entire process
I would like my internet restored ASAP and I want to see some sort of compensation for the lack of customer service and understanding, and I mean more than the $13 discount that they were going to give me
REBUTTAL RESPONSE:Mr. advised he continued to
experience issues with his internet and is requesting further credit.Our records indicate a technician was
dispatched to Mr.’s home on February 27, 2020, but the service went back
out on February 28, 2020. There was
confusion regarding what type of service was customer’s residence. The customer had an order created to upgrade
to the 200/200 internet speed. Unfortunately, my request to expedite the date was denied. There was no capacity to dispatch a
technician out sooner. The technician confirmed Mr. did
have fiber; however, they have cut their fiber drop twice now, knocking out the
service. The technician pulled a new
fiber drop through their customer owned conduit. The customer confirmed all lights were on
both devices. On March 9, 2020, Mr. advised he is
receiving slow speeds and not getting the 200/200 he was upgraded to. Mr. advised he was contacted and
informed in this area he would not get the speed of 200/200. The 200/200 shows available to be sold in our
system but the technician confirmed it could not be provided. Mr. was contacted and informed he
will received internet at no cost for one month ($29.99), and a courtesy
adjustment of $50.00 for the trouble he experienced. The account now reflects a credit balance in
the amount of $93.30. Mr. accepted
the credit adjustment.We sincerely apologize for the difficulty
Mr. has experienced as a result of the above matter.Should Mr. wish to discuss this
matter further, I can be reached at EXT ***Sincerely,Felicia TExecutive Customer RelationsFRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS

I fulfilled my contract with Frontier communications. I found a different internet service provider (ISP) in my area that better suits my needs for internet service. I contacted Frontier to cancel my service. I was informed that they did not want their equipment back, however I will be charged a $9.99 fee for disconnecting my service. I confirmed I was not still in a contract with them and Frontier insisted I am still required to pay the fee to discontinue my service with them. Now billing. Frontier stated that they will not prorate my service and I must pay for an entire months. I informed Frontier that I am upset by the fact they are charging me to stop service with them and switch my ISP. I was not willing to argue that charge just to move on, but I refused to pay for an entire months service that I will not, nor I did not use. Frontier customer service representative calculated what my prorated amount would/should be based on when I canceled; further stating, if I only paid that amount, late fees would be added and the account would be also marked delinquent. I request to be be re-billed for the proper amount. Frontier has not billed me for my proper prorated usage. I contacted them and they refused to re-calculate my bill and insist to be paid for a full months service.

I am writing with a concern to Frontier Communication scamming myself and potentially other customers.
I joined frontier in December 2015. After being a customer for ~4.5 years and my service price going up I decided to switch providers. I had called up on 1/2/20 and requested all my services be canceled on 1/18/20 which was the last day of my billing cycle from my 12/19/19 Bill. That bill covered the period 12/19/19 to 1/18/20.
On 1/19/20 I received a Bill for a full month of service, ie $166.89. When I called and questioned why I was told frontiers billing system is 1 cycle behind and to ignore it. The following month I would receive the final bill. (Seems like a scam to get more money from people on autopay but I said ok as I was not on autopay)
Then on 2/19/20 I received a bill for $27.57. I called on 2/23/20 to question why it was not “$0” just showing my account close out. I was told there was a $9.99 disconnect fee and also “prorated charges”. When I asked how could there be charges when I requested my service be disconnected on 1/18/20 which was the last day of my billing cycle the representative could not explain why. I asked to speak with a supervisor, after waiting ~38 minutes the frontier agent said all supervisors were busy but guaranteed me a supervisor would call me back sometime that day. This did not happen.
I called back on 2/24/20 around ~7:30pm spoke with a different agent explained situation with the same response. I did get to talk to a supervisor with no avail. The supervisor even tried to say the prorated charges were for when I made a payment on 1/15/20 and the disconnect date of 1/18/20 of which I explained the 1/15/20 payment was from the 12/19/20 bill but he could not comprehend.
The rep for this call name was Marlie and the supervisor was Manbi. I got a case # of *** from the call in case any legal action has to occur.
In the end I am not sure where the $27.57 comes from. It would mean there is $17.58 in some mysterious “prorated charges” and $9.99 in a disconnect fee. When I signed up back in 2015 there was no $9.99 disconnect fee in my 2 year contract and therefore I am not liable and/or held to this fee.
Overall I am looking for the $27.57 to be wiped and have the Bill read $0 as it should have.
I am glad to provide any Bills, etc I have to help resolve this matter.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. The executive customer care rep that called did a excellent job explaining what occurred and apologized. What I learned is frontiers billing system really needs a overhaul and customer care reps need some training. In the end I was happy with the outcome and detailed logical explanation from this executive customer care rep.

At 1:00 pm today I called Frontier communications for an upgrade on my current internet I was looking for something a bit faster after being on the phone about 30 minutes I was told my internet can be upgraded from 12 mg to 25 mg but I would have to pay an installation FEE OF 75.00 DOLLARS when I already have service that paid up to date sounds like a RIP off to me and it should be stopped

I started service with Frontier in August of 2019 because they said if I went with them I would get a $100 *** rewards gift card. They sent me an email stating I would also get another $50 *** rewards gift card. They have not sent me anything. I called and they would put me on hold and then hang up on me. I finally talked to Ruth Flores and she said the person that did my order didn't close the order and that's why they didn't send me anything. She said to call corporate. I have all the emails to prove this.
Thank you for referring the complaint of Mr. to our office for review. We appreciate this matter being brought to our attention.
Frontier has investigated the above statements and offers the following response:· Frontier advises on August 29, 2019 an order was initiated for Frontier internet service effective September 6, 2019.
· Research determined that the order was incorrect and missing the promotional code for the *** gift card.
· On March 5, 2020 Mr. provided a copy of the redemption email for the *** gift cards totaling $150.00.
On March 5, 2020 I spoke with Mr. regarding his concerns. During this contact, I explained to Mr. that the *** card promotion is no longer available and therefore; a *** card cannot be generated. I advised to Mr. that a manual credit of $150.00 can be issued to his Frontier account. I explained to Mr. that if his bill was current and no balance due that the credit could be issued. I explained that there must not be a balance on the account when the current is issued. If there is an account balance this balance would be debited from the credit amount. If the account is paid in full and no account balance, the credit can be issued and a manual refund of the credit balance could be mailed to him. Mr. advised that he would consult with his wife and contact me back.
We trust that this information will assist you in closing this complaint. We apologize for any inconvenience that the customer may have experienced as a result of this matter.

The internet service is not what was promised. And the customer service is is deceitful. We were lied to when they claimed we would have 500mb internet service, that was never the case. We were lied to when they said we wont be charged extra for the improved service after troubleshooting but they just upgraded the service and charged us additional without our consent. I had asked if theyre "troubleshooting" improvements was going to cost us extra and the representative said no.
Then when cancelling, I was charged twice for the same last months bill that they haven't resolved.
And they termed our service 3 days earlier even though by contract, they made me pay for those 3 days.
SO in total they’ve charged me $360 for 2 months of terrible internet service, when contractually I had agreed to $53/month.

I called Frontier back in July 2019, I asked if they could transfer my internet services from the location I was in to my new address(current address) on 08.06.2019. They said they could do the transfer and gave me a confirmation number to use #*** after 08.06.2019. After I moved to my current location and got to the place were I need to use my internet service, I contacted Frontier and talked to customer service, gave them the confirmation number and they turned me over to Tech support to get me connected. Tech department told me my services were suspended and they couldn't help me, I need to talk with Customer Service. So I did, they gave me a new confirmation number, 039237519 and said I needed to wait 48 hours, then call and have tech support connect my services. I waited, called, and again I was told my services were suspended and they couldn't help me, would transfer me to Customer Service I said no. I tried again on another day, This person said she closed the account and had to open a new account. She told me a Tech had to come to my location to get my services connected. I took half a day off from work as they were to be there around 2pm. No one showed up. By this time I was done with Frontier and signed up with *** in September. I needed service. So now I call Frontier again on 09.12.19, I asked them to close the account as I could not get my service connected. I was given verbal confirmation the account was closed, final order# ***. I was told that there would be a disconnect charge on my final bill at the end of September. I paid the bill this cause at this point I just wanted to be done! So then another bill came with another account number, so I called Frontier again. This time I talked with a gal named Jasmin on 10.20.19. I asked if she could do a look up not by account number, but under my name to see how many accounts were under it. She told me, I had four accounts, two for my old address and two for my new address. I can't remember how many accounts were still open under my name, but I asked her to close them all. And told her I had sent a payment for the disconnect fee on one of the accounts. I told her my story and how I never received any services for this location as no one was able to get the service connected. She checked with the Tech department to confirm what I told her. She said the Tech department confirmed no services were ever connected on the two accounts for my current location. She closed all accounts that were still open under my name. I asked for a confirmation number, and she provided me with #*** a cap ticket. Also, that I would receive a 100% credit. I thought everything was done, finished. Then I received more bills for one of the account's that was suppose to be closed. I called again and got the same run around. I am filling this complaint as Frontier is threatening collection and I am done asking for Frontier to closed the accounts. I can't believe what they say anymore and I have nowhere else to turn. I am asking for them to stop billing and close this account with no charges.

I recently purchased frontier internet for $50 per month. Frontier advertised this service as 500mbps speed. Yet I am only getting 6mbps. I called the service center hotline and they said its because they dont have availability in my home. Yet they continue to charge me 50 dollars for 6mbps when they charge the same for 500mbps. They did not notify me I would receive 6mbps and made it seem I would be getting the 500mbps. How can they charge the same price when these speeds are drastically different? Many people I know have th e same exact problem. They pay 50 dollars for a service that is 6mbps when they advertise the 500mbps for the same price. I feel like I am being robbed and I would like this to be investigated. I feel like they are just saying to everyone that the 500 is not available and giving 6mbps by default. I realize that TIME WARNER has recently come under lawsuit for a very similar reason. I hate to see people being taken advantage of and this is huge issue for me. I work hard for my money and I dont see how they can charge me the same price when clearly the internet speed is such a huge difference. 6mbps vs 500MBPS IS A VERY BIG DIFFERENCE.

I cancelled service 11/2019. I keep getting billed. I have contacted them three times in the past; once to cancel service, once to dispute that we owed for equipment ( that we purchased) and about getting another bill. I received an email today that I owe 199$. I called them AGAIN today and they are saying they don’t have any record of any of my previous telephone call. They also sent me to collections. We are going to contact our phone service to see if we can get phone records of the telephone calls.

I have contacted Frontier several times over the past few months about NO internet service. I have opened multiple tickets and they have not resolved the issue. They scheduled a time to have a tech come to my house on 2/21/2020 but DID NOT SHOW UP. I then called to speak to a manager on 2/22/2020 and FRANZ hung up on me. I had to call back and open ANOTHER ticket. They have told me there is a high speed 'commercial' box that was installed close to my house but have NOT connected me to that box. Instead they have me pinging off a tower in TORONTO CANADA. I have spent numerous hours on hold and explaining over & over again my issues. They have only credited me 8 days but service has not worked for MONTHS! I had a ticket #*** then ticket #*** was created on 2/19/2020. I then called on 2/22/2020 for ANOTHER ticket #***. On 2/22/2020 I spoke to a SECOND supervisor Louis who admitted that I had OVER 1000 DISCONNECTS so far in February 2020 and that should never be more than 5 in 1 month. They obviously know there are issues with the internet service but can't seem to resolve this. I have used my cell phone as a hot spot for months which has increased my cell phone bill.

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.
The third ticket I again sat home ALL DAY. I saw the Frontier truck drive by several times but NO ONE ever called, texted or showed up at my door.
They closed the ticket without letting me know and have NOT resolved my issues.
I have had OVER 1000 DROPPED connections in the month of February 2020.
I have documented several dozen dates and times that the internet was NOT working.
Frontier has ignored my issue but continue to charge me.
I should get at least a one month credit for all the issues so far in 2020.
They get a FAILING grade from me. As a consumer AND business owner I am unable to rely on Frontier service for emails and working from home. The internet drops off nearly every 30 minutes requiring me to unplug and restart the router.
The last ticket issued they were suppose to come INSIDE and test THEIR EQUIPMENT. They did NOT do that.
I am not satisfied and this is not resolved.

I had a bundle with frontier that was about to run out. I was told to call them in October, in order to avoid high payments. After calling them about 3 times to shop around, ( All calls recorded ) , finally on the last call the salesperson offered me a great price, good until Dec 2020. They offered me Internet and cable ( I dropped the phone, since I dont need it and got it just for better value last time, this salesperson told me it would make taxes much cheaper without a phone). I then, happily agreed to pay $75 a month plus tax, making my bill around $87.44 a month. That was I paid maybe for 2 months, and when I was going to make a payment for February, it was " magically " changed to $139.88 a month, showing my agreement had ENDED on January , and that great price I was offered was valid only for a month instead of the one year promised ( I have it on recording ). Also I was told I would get charged even more in the future, around $164.00. Very upset, since the customer service said they didnt have my last call on file , I asked to speak with the supervisor. The supervisor ( I have her employee number and my case number if needed in the future ). She then , found my last recording and said it would be sent for evaluation. I was given a case number, I had my bill for February ratified $139.00 - $52.44 = $ 87.44 for this month while awaiting for them to call me, and let me know I would keep what it was promised me, $ 75 a month plus tax. I keep checking on my bill, and still says I own the remain of $ 52.44. They have not call me back, and are still overcharging me. My bill is due on Feb 25. I have been on hold with them while writing this complaint, for 44 minutes and still going. I am very upset because I have been hearing the same complaint from other customers over and over, upset they seem to be harassing the elderly . I just want what they promised me until Dec 2020. I will then cancel my service since I do not trust them anymore. Please help . Thanks .

I especially appreciate the help from Nadia ( Retention Department and Sandra ) who took my complaint seriously after I have been mistreated and given false statements by Frontiers employees over the phone .

I moved to a new Apartment on January 1st, 2020. On January 4th, 2020 I called Frontier to disconnect my Internet FIOS service in the old apartment because I no longer wanted to pay $58 every month for a 25Mbps/25Mbps speed. The rep gave me a counter offer of $48 for 100Mbps/100Mbps to keep the business. I said no because I know newer customers were signing up for $29 for the same speed. The rep then made another offer for $38 a month to which I said no again because it was still higher than $29. Then the rep puts me on a long hold and came back one more time with another offer of $33 and some change per month for the same speed. I agreed, he gave me an order number and said that the new pricing will reflect on this months bill but the next month's bill. Well it didn't, I'm still being charged the same exact $58. The only thing that changed was the speed. It was increased from 25/25 to 100/100. When I called back to complain, they said the order was for speed upgrade. I composed an email to Frontier customer service to complain about this and to go back and check the recording with this rep and I have got no response from Frontier. Instead of resolving the issue, they today disconnected my service on the new address for moved it back to old address. Not sure what triggered that. They have now opened a new order to move it back to new address yet again. This company does not deserve to do business in California.
Frontier Communications abruptly shut off our telephone and internet service. When I called I was told that it was because we owed a balance of $535 from another account from 2014. They would not tell me what the other account was. Frontier also told me that they would not restore my service until the mystery account was paid. Frontier said that I could dispute the debt but that service would not be restored.

I was a long time customer of Frontier for broadband services. In October 2019 I attempted to upgrade service. Expanded service was not available so I requested termination. After a couple of phone transfers my call was dropped. I was billed in Nov of 2019 as usual. I sent the bill back and in writing requested termination. Billed again in Dec 2019 for continued service with penalties. Requested in a formal letter to terminate services again and refused payment for the 2 months. I was called and informed I would have to pay. I declined citing previous requests to cancel. They suggested they would review phone logs and let me know. I did not hear back other than to be continually billed. I feel this is deceptive billing tactics as I attempted resolution.
Thank you

appreciate him bringing this matter to our attention.The
Complaint states that:Mr. is stating that in October 2019 he was not able to upgrade his internet speed so he opted to cancel his Frontier service. Mr. says that he was not able to reach an agent for the processing of the disconnect so he returned his November 2019 billing statement with a notation of the request. When he received his December 2019 billing statement he sent a formal letter for the termination request and refused payment. Mr. is requesting to have his balance of $166.95 waived and removal of any negative credit reporting.Frontier
has investigated the above statements and offers the following response:Frontier records show that Mr. subscribed to Frontier Broadband Max which was the fastest available speed at his location.Review of the account history confirms that Frontier received Mr.’s letter on 12/9/19 and his account was disconnected on that day per his request. There is no record of a request to disconnect prior to that date. Frontier shows that the last payment posted on the account was for $48.98 on 10/15/19. The final balance of $166.95 is valid and a credit is not warranted. We trust
that this information will assist you in closing this complaint. We

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.
Frontier has not acknowledged that I attempted to disconnect in October, November and December. I feel they essentially ignored my disconnect requests and continued to bill me after those requests. I have documentation that I requested the disconnect on my November and December bills. I sent said documentation records as requested by email to them. They have not acknowledged those request.I have offered to pay the $9.99 disconnect fee but no more.

Years ago, I moved from *** to Frontier for my home's web access. However, they for some reason registered my home as a business account. Simple googling would show that my address is in residential zone. It did not matter earlier because the bandwidth/price ratio was similar to residential. I have been paying $39.99 excluding some fee for 30 Mbps access to internet. However, in my area, they now have a $29.99 plan for 50 Mbps access. I called them twice regarding moving me from the business to residential account and signing up for the new residential plan with no extra equipment. Worse, the business account's promotional price is going to be over; i.e., I will soon have to pay more! The calls failed #1 because their business and residential domains are almost two different companies and #2 they recently moved processing of NW internet access to some other part of the company. To their credit, the latter call almost worked after I was about to reach the 4th person but my headset's battery ran out; and my situation is probably not common.

Frontier guaranteed internet connection and it did not work. I called to cancel after three days of service and they transferred me to a salesman who convinced me to let them fix the problem and we would not be charged if they didn’t fix it. We had 2-3 technicians come out. They did not fix the problem then charged us for the month and for the frontier techs to ”time and services” when they said they wouldn’t. No one can help me when I call and no one knows where to transfer me.
