Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: Unwilling to troubleshoot?? REALLY!?!? I have called TIMES! I troubleshooted the first times with no complaint! Then the other times THAT SAME DAY I told the rep I had already done that! I have even tried calling from SOMEWHERE ELSE to resolve this issue (as stated above), but your reps were unwilling to assist me if I weren't home - thus the disconnect EVERY TIME problem! If anyone is "UNWILLING TO TROUBLESHOOT" it is EXEDE! They have been unwilling to resolve the issue and have allowed a CUSTOMER to call back times for the SAME issue with no resolution while they themselves make the EXACT SAME MISTAKE EVERY TIME and disconnect the cal by resetting the modeml!!Again, I find it HILARIOUS that you continue to blame our speed issue on the Liberty PassDo your research! RIGHT NOW, WE ARE NOT IN LIBERTY PASS AND YET ARE RUNNING AT MBPS!!!! FAR, FAR LESS than the advertised 12! I realize that it is "up to 12", and could justify a difference if we were running 8-MPBS, but 3!!! REALLY!?!? Additionally, AS STATED PREVIOUSLY, We did not use to have this issueFor OVER A YEAR we were running between - MBPS, then the last few months and you want to try to pretend there ISN'T A PROBLEM!?Wow, just wowI have no other words! Sincerely, [redacted]
