Thank you for bringing Ms***’s complaint to ViaSat’s attentionWe apologize for any confusion or frustration this situation may have caused Ms*** contacted ViaSat’s customer service department on February 4, to discuss the disconnection of her ViaSat account as she believed she
was misinformed at the time of saleDuring her conversation with ViaSat’s customer service department it was agreed that her account would be disconnected with no early termination fees, and a service call scheduled to retrieve the leased equipment with waiver of the $service call charge The Customer Agreement signed by Ms*** on February 03, authorizes ViaSat to charge a credit card or initiate electronic funds transfers from a checking account for automatic monthly payments for any fees including monthly service fees and equipment lease fees.? As ViaSat has already issued a free service call to retrieve Ms***’s leased equipment, and waived approximately $360.00, not including taxes in early termination fees, ViaSat does not agree to refund Ms*** the $collected on February 3, However, ViaSat will agree to refund $of the $collectedA refund of $will be issued to the payment method on file and should be received within three to five business daysThank you for the opportunity to respond.?

Thank you for bringing Mr*** rebuttal to our attention.? The Customer Agreement provided to each new customer, and signed by *** *** on March 10, 2018, and also available at exede.com/legal, commits each customer to a 24-month minimum service term, and states that early termination fees will apply if service is canceled prior to the expiration of the minimum service termCustomers are advised of this commitment at the time of sale and are reminded of the early termination fees at the time they elect to disconnect prior to the expiration of the minimum service term.? ? As stated in the response to Mr***’s complaint, $has been credited to his account for the service interruptions that he experienced.? As a resolution to this rebuttal, Viasat would like to offer Mr*** the option of disconnecting his account with no early termination fees.? Per Viasat’s policy, a customer must call into to customer care to officially request disconnection of the account so that all required disclosures can be read.? This also provides the customer with the opportunity to ask questions about the disclosures before finalizing the disconnection of the account.? If Mr*** would like to take advantage of this opportunity, he may contact our hour customer service hotline, 1-855-463-9333, and reference ticket number ***.? ? Thank you for the opportunity to respond.?
Thank you for bringing Ms***’ rebuttal to our attention
Due to the nature of satellite-based internet service, there are many variables that can affect speeds, including, weather at Viasat’s facilities or at the customer’s home, network congestion, a misconfigured home network or outdated computer equipment and software Because of these many variables, Viasat cannot guarantee any particular speedViasat discloses at the point of sale and in its Customer Agreement, signed by Ms*** on January 13, 2018, that speeds may vary and are not guaranteed
Further review of Ms***’ account shows that she called on January 21, advising that she was experiencing slow speedsShe also advised that she’d attempted to transition her service to an unlimited plan, but was unsure if it had processed throughUnfortunately, the call dropped before Ms*** could be fully assistedMs*** called back shortly after for assistance; however, the call quality was poor and the line ended up droppingWe apologize for any frustration this may have caused Ms*** to experience
Ms*** called back again the same day, at which time the Viasat representative reviewed the plans available to Ms***, at which time she elected to transition to Viasat’s Unlimited Data Silver service plan at $a month, plus applicable taxes and a $monthly equipment lease feeAs this service plan required a new modem, Ms*** was informed that one would be delivered to her for self-installationDue to a backlog in orders, there was a delay in the shipment and delivery of the new modemWe apologize if this was not communicated clearly to Ms***
The Unlimited Data Silver service plan provides unlimited data usage at regular speeds up to MbpsThe service is optimized for streaming at DVD quality or 480p
Viasat’s unlimited data service plans do not have a monthly data allowancePursuant to Viasat’s Unlimited Data Policy available at www.exede.com/legal, if a customer uses more than GB of data during their monthly billing period, Viasat may prioritize their data behind other customers during network congestion, which will result in slower speedsStarting on the first day of the customer’s monthly measurement period, all uploaded and downloaded data transmitted using Viasat Internet service will count towards the GB thresholdAt the end of the monthly measurement period, the data usage resets to zeroCustomers are informed of this information when they select one of Viasat’s unlimited data plans, and it is addressed in Viasat’s Customer Agreement and Unlimited Data Policy available at exede.com/legal
The new modem was installed at Ms***’ home on February 20, Ms*** called Viasat on March 12, because she was experiencing slow speedsAt this time, she was informed that she had reached the GB data threshold and her service had been de-prioritized, as described above and in the Customer AgreementThe Viasat representative also informed Ms*** that network congestion in her area was impacting her serviceThe representative guided Ms*** through troubleshooting to see if her speed of service would increase, but the issue persisted
Ms*** called on March 16, 2018, at which time her account was disconnected, per her request
Regarding Ms***’ claim that Viasat was going to charge her $in service coverage fees, Ms*** was not charged any such monthly fee, nor was she receiving Viasat’s EasyCare program at $a monthViasat does not have a $service coverage fee
Per our previous reply, Viasat has issued Ms*** a refund of $for a monthly service fee collected on March 16, Viasat has also waived half of her early termination fees of $328.55, leaving her responsible for early termination fees in the amount of $Viasat does not agree to waive the full amount of Ms***’ early termination fees
Thank you for the opportunity to respond
Thank you for bringing Mc*** complaint to our attention.? Per our previous response, Viasat internally escalated a request for Ms*** to receive a new return kitThis request was processed by Viasat’s logistics team the same day, and Ms*** should have received the return kitWe apologize if Ms*** has not received that return kit yet.? In response to this complaint, Viasat has internally escalated a new request on March 20, for Ms*** to receive a return kit via an overnighted serviceThe request was processed the same dayIf Ms*** would like to track her package, she may refer to tracking no***.? At this time, Viasat believes that all appropriate actions have been takenIf Ms*** has any further questions or concerns, she may contact Viasat’s 24-hour Customer Care department at 1-855-463-9333.? Thank you for the opportunity to respond.?
Thank you for bringing Mr***’s complaint to ViaSat’s attentionWe apologize for any inconvenience this may have causedOur records show that Mr*** is receiving ViaSat’s Liberty GB service plan at $a month, plus applicable taxes and a $monthly equipment lease fee Mr
***’s Exede Liberty service plan provides GB of monthly Priority Data allowance for use at regular speeds of up to Mbps download and Mbps uploadsPursuant to ViaSat’s Data Allowance Policy, once the customer goes over the Priority Data allowance the customer receives Liberty Pass, (at no extra cost) which allows them to continue using more data at download speeds of up to to Mbps when the network is not busy until their monthly Priority Data allowance resetsWhen the network is busy, customers in Liberty Pass will receive significantly slower speeds which may greatly impair their ability to use the internetCustomers are told this information at the time of sale and it is incorporated into the Customer Agreement signed by Mr*** on February 29, 2016.? ViaSat does not offer an unlimited service planThe most common causes for high data usage are typically downloading or streaming media content (e.gonline videos, music, and internet radio), downloading full-length movies, and downloading or uploading large files (e.gviewing pictures on *** or through ***)Customers have the choice to purchase additional data under ViaSat’s Buy More option at $per GB on an as-needed basis, but are not required to do so.? Our review of Mr***’s account as of April 5, shows that Mr*** has used GB of the availableHis usage is set to reset on May 1, Mr***’s previous bill cycle shows that GB of the available were usedMost of Mr***’s usage is coming from httpsViaSat has researched this issue and had their Network Operations team look into this and they were unable to detect any issuesViaSat is not showing any usage issues as different sources are showing the same data Mr*** will want to do some research on his sideFor example last month GB of download and GB of upload were consumedWeb Browsing was GB’s and which were HTTPS sitesThe next biggest usage type is storage at GB’sIf Mr*** is using this service for VPN purposes, ViaSat does not recommend the service for VPN usageMr*** should check the browser history and download files as he would have better visibility than ViaSat does to the HTTPS sites as to where the data is goingThe dates Mr*** would want to start with are 4/4, 3/10, 3/ViaSat is showing the following devices connected: *** ** computer*** smartphonesAnd one unknown device.? ViaSat does not agree to issue back any refund for the services that were used and no extra data will be providedIf Mr*** feels that the service is not going to meet his needs or expectations ViaSat is willing to let Mr*** out of the contract with no early termination feesShould Mr*** wish to disconnect the account he can contact Customer Care at *** and reference ticket number ***Thank you for allowing ViaSat the opportunity to respond
Initial Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2015/10/14) */
Thank you for bringing Mr***'s complaint to our attentionWe apologize for any frustration he may have experienced with ViaSat
Pursuant to the Customer Agreement, signed by Mr*** on November 13, and available at
exede.com/legal, ViaSat's subscribers are responsible for returning ViaSat's modem and transceiver within days after their disconnectionFailure to return this equipment within the allotted timeframe will result in an unreturned equipment fee of $300.00, not including taxesA prepaid UPS box and illustrated instructions, supplied by ViaSat, is delivered to a customer's home within a week after their disconnection for the return of the equipment
Our records show Mr*** contacted ViaSat on June 23, with questions about disconnecting his account because he would be moving soonDuring this conversation, the ViaSat representative advised Mr*** that if he disconnected his account, he would be responsible for returning ViaSat's modem and transceiver within days and that he would be charged an early termination fee of approximately $Mr*** advised that he would call back to disconnect
ViaSat received another call from Mr*** on July 16, because he'd been charged $when he hadn't had serviceMr*** advised that he believed his account had been disconnected even though he said he would call backAt this time, the ViaSat representative advised Mr*** that his account was still active and processed the disconnection for him, per his requestWhen Mr*** asked for a refund of the $60.78, he was advised that ViaSat did not refund for prepaid services and that ViaSat had not been informed of any service issues he'd experienced prior to this interactionPer his request, the ViaSat representative escalated a request for the equipment return kit to be sent to the following address:
*** E *** ***
*** ***
*** ** XXXXX
Our records show ViaSat alerted UPS of the address change on July 17, Review of the tracking number (no1Z6ERXXXXXXXXXXXXX) shows that UPS attempted to deliver to Mr***'s home, but there was an issue with his apartment numberUPS attempted to contact Mr*** to update the address in their systems, but there was no responseThe UPS box was returned to sender on August 5,
The Customer Agreement requires subscribers to commit to a 24-month minimum service term, and early termination fees will apply if service is canceled prior to the minimum service term Customers are reminded of the early termination fees at the time they elect to disconnect prior to the expiration of the minimum service term
On August 16, 2015, ViaSat collected a payment of $for Mr***'s early termination feesViaSat was advised on August 19, that Mr***'s equipment had not been returned; subsequently, on September 16, 2015, ViaSat collected $in unreturned equipment fees from Mr***
Mr*** contacted ViaSat on September 17, regarding the charge, at which point he advised that he had never received the box to return the equipmentThe ViaSat representative requested a second box be delivered to the above-mentioned addressThe request was placed to UPS on September 21, Once again, issues with Mr***'s apartment number prevented UPS from delivering the shipment, and the box was returned to sender on October 9, This was explained to Mr*** during a conversation with a ViaSat representative on October 13,
As UPS has been unable to deliver the equipment return kit to Mr***'s home, it is recommended that he provide an alternate physical address to which the box can be sentMr*** can provide this address by contacting ViaSat's 24-hour Customer Service Department at X-XXX-XXX-XXXX
In order to come to a resolution to this complaint, ViaSat will refund Mr*** for the unreturned equipment fees of $and the monthly service fee of $paid on July 16, This refund has been issued to Mr***'s payment method as of October 14, Mr*** should be advised that it *** take three to five business days for the amount to be deposited into his account

My address as listed as, once again, incorrectI included my apartment number on both occasionsHowever, the number is failing to be seen hereThat being said, I accept the return of the sum offeredIf the equipment would still be returned I would like to do so
Thank you for bringing Ms*** complaint to ViaSat's attentionWe apologize for any confusion or frustration this situation may have caused

fees, equipment lease requirements, and certain limitations Each of these points is also addressed in the Customer Agreement signed by Ms*** on December 7, and available at exede.com/legalAn account cannot be established without the customer's electronic signatureWe apologize if Ms*** feels these points were not communicated to her satisfaction

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because:
Sincerely,
*** ***? Per the response received from ViaSat, *** *** did not sign anything at anytime in conjunction with the order for services, the installation of services or at any other time? After receiving my confirmation letter from DirecTV which stated I initiated the request for services, and after the technician installed the services, I signed the documentation with my signature, not ** ***, I believe that ViaSat continuously fabricates their information? I wish to see the documentation they have with *** *** signature and not mine? ? To further assist in complaints against ViaSat, we did agree after discussions with ViaSat, to keep the account in *** ***'s name? We have been totally dis-satisfied with the quality of service provided by ViaSat? The installation technician stated we would not have any problem connecting in our bedroom, We never got satisfactory service in the bedroom? We constantly complained about slow internet speed, we signed up for speed up to Mbps and constantly was seeing speeds in and around 5-Mbps? On the 9th we were informed that we had expended our GBs of data and thus we would not see an increase in speed until after the next billing cycle? On at least one occasion, I specifically requested to speak with a supervisor and was informed that the supervisor refused to speak to me? ? I do not intend to disconnect the service, vice I will continue to hound customer service to try and receive the service that we are paying for? I will further continue to complain with the Revdex.com if the service remains substandard? I will, however insist that they remove their advertising signage from being proximal to my property? I do not wish to advertise for a company with such shoddy customer service and poor quality of service that they are providing? If we provided the type of customer service that they are providing, I would be forced to close the doors to my business within days.? ?

ViaSat does not recommend the use of Virtual Private Networks (VPN) applications with ViaSat’s serviceSection of the Customer Agreement, signed Nancy
Soltow, authorized signer, on March 4, 2016, clearly states, “VPN applications may not perform or may perform poorly and are not recommended.”
The Data Allowance Policy is meant to ensure all customers have equitable access to the network and that heavy data usage by a small number of customers does not negatively impact the network performance of all customersCustomers are made aware of ViaSat’s Data Allowance Policy at the time of sale; it is also addressed on the first page of the Customer AgreementPursuant to the Data Allowance Policy, speeds may be slowed or restricted for a period of time when customers use their entire monthly system usageThis means that web pages and email will take significantly longer to load and most other internet activities will not work
Ms*** was receiving ViaSat’s Liberty 18GB at $a month, plus applicable taxes and a $monthly equipment lease feeBecause Ms*** ordered this service plan under a promotional offering, she was receiving 36GB of priority data per month for the first three months, after which it would revert to the advertised 18GB of dataIt also came with a promotion of $off the bill per month for three monthsThe Liberty service provides download speeds up to 25Mbps, upload speeds up to 3Mbps, and a Liberty Pass, which offers customers download speeds up to 1-Mbps once they have exceeded their monthly priority data

During her call with the Technical Escalations representative, Ms*** advised that she was experiencing slow speeds, and that the service was not meeting her needsWhen asked what she used the service for, she explained that she needed it for VPN, at which time it was explained to her that the use of VPN clients on ViaSat’s network was not guaranteedThe call ended shortly after
Ms*** called back a second time on March 7, requesting the disconnection of her account with the early termination fees waivedThe ViaSat representative escalated Ms*** account to a supervisor for review and a call back regarding the early termination fees, and Ms*** account remained activeWe apologize if Ms*** was not contacted by a supervisor
On March 12, 2016, Ms*** called in about using a VPN client on ViaSat’s networkAt this time, it was reiterated to her that ViaSat did not guarantee or recommend the use of VPNsOn March 16, 2016, Ms*** called ViaSat to disconnect her account, at which time she was reminded of her signed Customer Agreement and early termination feesHowever, based on her issues, a ViaSat supervisor approved a waiver of the early termination feesThese fees were waived from Ms*** account later the same day after her disconnection
We apologize for any frustration Ms*** may have experienced We feel the resolution previously agreed to and the actions taken by ViaSat adequately address Ms*** complaintMs*** is responsible for returning ViaSat’s modem and transceiver within days after her disconnection, or she will be subject to an unreturned equipment fee of $300.00, not including taxes, per the Customer Agreement A UPS box with a free return shipping label will be delivered to her home address within a week after her disconnection, and will include illustrated instructions on what equipment she will need to return
