Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: they still want to charge me for a service that was cancelled within a two week period, and their local sales representative was grossly misleading and deceptive.?

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: I cannot in all good consciousness agree to what the response from ViaSat statedI have never ever received download speeds greater than the advertised speed of MbpsThe only way that could ? be possible would be at or AM when there is very few active usersI just ran several speed tests and the average download speed was Mbps.I noticed that their response failed to state at what hour their test was run.I read the page legal agreement and it does state that speeds are not guaranteedHowever, if they are claiming Mbps any reasonable person would expect to receive something similar to their claimsThat was simply a misleading statement.As to the nature of their service they know what the problem is as verified by their own technicians, they have too many users on this plan which they refer to as congestionHowever, they do not tell you that when you sign up for service.? However, I may take them up on their offer to discontinue my service if I can find a suitable alternative before their arbitrary deadline date of 02/16/At least they offered that solution.Thank you for your prompt attention to this complaint.? Yes, I read the page agr Sincerely, [redacted] ?

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: I honestly feel this is not an ethical way to take care of this matter? This company's service is something different than any others we have used in the past and I did not understand this difference when speaking with the Customer Representative I spoke with at the time I ordered their service...and he was a very nice person to deal with? I answered ? his questions and he said he thought the Liberty Plan would be good for my needs? With other Internet Services we have used, we always got the same service for the entire time, and I assumed this would be the same? I had no idea that the priority time (fast service) would last for only day and then change to the very slow serviceThis could be my fault...not understanding this since it is such a new and different concept than I had ever been aware of? As to the electronic signing, I did not really understand this as we have always had to sign the contract after the Installer finishes the installation and date it then? I did not look at the contract information online until after cancelling the service and it is pages of small print and I don't know who would read all that information and know what it said when they finished.I will be willing to offer to pay $to Exede for the few days I had the service in order to clear up this matter if that is agreeable with the Company? I feel that is more than fair since there is this misunderstanding and it will compensate them for their installation (we returned everything we were told to return)? I had intended that the first month's charge was ? to stay with the company but for some reason, my bank credited it back to my account Sincerely, [redacted]

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 speed to you.? Viasat discloses at the point of sale and in its Customer Agreement, signed by Mr [redacted] on December 9, 2017, that speeds may vary and are not guaranteed.Our records show Mr [redacted] is currently receiving Viasat’s Unlimited Data Bronze Mbps service plan at $a month, plus applicable taxes and a $monthly equipment lease feeThe Unlimited Data Bronze service plan provides unlimited data usage at regular speeds up to MbpsThe service is optimized for streaming at small screen quality or 360p.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 Customer Agreement provided to each new customer 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 term.? Customers 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.Our records show that Mr [redacted] first called about slow service speeds on March 20, A Viasat representative advised Mr [redacted] that at the time, he had used approximately GB of his unlimited data, and due to network congestion, could experience slow speedsThe representative also advised Mr [redacted] of the details of his data usage.? On April 23, 2018, Mr [redacted] contacted Viasat regarding experiencing slow speedsThe Viasat representative assisting Mr [redacted] advised him that he was experiencing network congestion, and offered Mr [redacted] a recurring discount of $off for the next monthsMr [redacted] accepted the offer, and the discount was applied to his next bill.? On June 24, 2018, Mr [redacted] contacted Viasat to request a disconnection of his Viasat servicesA Viasat representative offered to troubleshoot Mr [redacted] services, which Mr [redacted] acceptedIt was determined that a service call was necessary, which Mr [redacted] declinedMr [redacted] chose to proceed with his disconnection, and requested that it take place on July 11, The Viasat representative read disconnection disclosures, including information about early termination fees, and submitted the request.In resolution to this complaint, Viasat would like to offer Mr [redacted] a free service call in order to determine the cause of any possible issuesAs Mr [redacted] has not yet granted Viasat the opportunity to resolve any issues with his service as required per the Customer Agreement, Viasat does not at this time agree to waive Mr [redacted] early termination feesIf Mr [redacted] would like to take advantage of this offer, he may contact Viasat’s 24-hour Customer Care department at 1-855-463-9333.Thank you for the opportunity to respond.?

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: Viasat customer service had a DIFFERENT claim about the statements each time we talked to them 1st It was they are UNABLE to print hard copies of statements because the customer was supposed to do that themselves from their online account Difficult to manage when you have no internet service.2nd Viasat claimed the statements were in route....3rd Then later we found out no the statements were not sent But they will be sent....4th Online requests via email from my daughter requesting the statements to be emailed were ignoredAs of today's date...no statements have arrived in any form, mail or email.Also, I have two accounts, one that was compromised by my grand-son-in-law [redacted] at our winter home and another account for my summer home I have closed my other account that was not compromised because of the complete lack of concern for my situation from Viasat Customer Service And case you are wondering just how rude Viasat customer service representatives are? I invite you to pull the tapes of the charming lady I talked to on March 11th, We still to date Sincerely, [redacted]
