I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ***, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
1)Many companies do prorate their services especially if you have had their services for many yearsI previously changed cell phone companies and my services were prorated even though they bill for the month ahead also. 2) The notice was written in small print on the second page which is the back page. There were no colorful banners, bold print or captions mentioning the change on the front page. 3) All the representative did was mainly restate that according to company policy at the corporate level nothing could be done and that he would give all info/complaint to the department that is monitoring all complaints submitted. 4) Already stated the wifi is not accessible in Florida and those apps/programs don't give Florida news/weather. 5) Optimum states that they are for there customers but this doesn't show it. If they were they would not charge anyone for services that they are unable to use. It would understand charging someone the full amount if they were constantly disconnecting and reconnecting their service with Optimum. Not a senior citizen who has been a loyal customer for many many years and 99% if not 100% monthly payments were made on time and in full

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ***, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because: Dory, Optimum representative, admits that, although the name change form was submitted on 8/**, they did not "get to it" until 9/**So, this begs the question, how is this MY fault? The form itself says it takes business days to processThat would be 8/** the first fax which I have confirmation of and 9/* the call/letter, and second fax receiptTherefore, the form should have been processed and in fact I was told in my third call that it "finally" went through and all was wellNow Dory says that as of 9/** the account became past due so they refused to accept the formNumber 1, no one called to tell me this and number 2, the form should have been processed by 8/**, or, 9/* at the latestbasically, they are grasping at straws at how to make this MY fault and collect for services I was not even receivingTo further illustrate this point, Dory actually said to me yesterday that had I not listened to their representative this would not have happenedI told her I was glad she was recording the call as she may need it in courtthat is the most ludicrous thing Ive ever heard and proves one of my original points that this company does not want to take responsibility for anythingI explained that their representative advised me to complete the name change form rather than cancelling service and she said, "yes and you agreedhad you not listened and just cancelled this would not have happened"UNBELIEVABLE!!!lastly, she informed me that even if all went through I would have been responsible for this bill until 8/**, not 8/** as agreedI then, in fairness, agreed to pay the balance through 8/Dory, and Optimum, said that was not an acceptable resolutionI agree as I should only be responsible through 8/** but I was willing to do that to avoid court and the mediai advise anyone in an area where the dish is to use that as Optimum is not reliable and their customer service is horrific.
