RevDex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. Sincerely, [redacted] ***It seems that this matter has been resolved with Excede. We wish to keep the original... complaint as it stands because we feel the company practices poor business judgments and are lacking in their communication skills and customer service. We incurred direct expenses due to their poor practices and would not recommend their internet service to others. Thank you for your time regarding this matter.

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: First, thank you for disconnecting the service. Secondly, I would appreciate a tracking number for the box that is being sent for the collection of the modem and dish. I attempted to chat with customer service to get this information and of course I was not able to. At this time I have not received any box and I will not accept any resolution until I have. I have seen on numerous accounts that people have gone back and forth for months trying to get a box sent to them. I would appreciate any tracking information that you could give me to verify that a box was indeed sent. I am doing everything I can from my end to ensure that you receive your hardware back. It has been sitting here boxed up and ready to go since an hour after it was initially installed. Sincerely, [redacted]
Thank you. What else I wanted to say is that I really dont appreciate being called a liarI called the number on the welcoming email, which is the screen shot that I provided. I called another number the day I was told I couldnt speak to anyone higher up about this charge so I tried to call any number I found online hoping to find a corporate number. Im not trying to be difficult at all, but it is very insulting to be told I didnt do something when I know I did. As far as being told I would be charged up front, that is also falseI was never told that while signing up. Judging from the reviews online I am not the only one who was not told this. This needs to be fixed within the company because its making myself and apparently other customers not very happy. Also, today at 4:pm I got another email from Viasat telling me I would be charged another today when I just charged last week! This is insane! Especially after them saying on here even that I have no credit card on file now. Im not sure what is going on and why they are the ones not telling the truth but this needs to get worked out. This is so very unfair to the customers. I am not trying to be a problem customer but I dont want to be lied to and about by someone who is supposed to appreciate me as a customer.
We apologize for this confusionThe payment collected of $has been refunded and a stop payment has been confirmed with our finance department Mr [redacted] should receive his refund in three to five business daysThank you
Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me Independently of this conversation with Revdex.com, we have been speaking with Customer Service at Exede, and also reviewing online forums regarding the particular problem we experienced with Exede, namely the mysterious use of bandwidth allowanceMany people consider that bandwidth loss is the result of errors with modem firmware/software updates and failure of the modem to communicate successfully with Exede, resulting in "looping" as the modem keeps trying to establish links with ExedeCustomer bandwidth they say is used up in this processIndeed, MyEsvt, see below, reported a problem of "packet dropping" on the day of the mysterious bandwidth loss.We still maintain that we could not have used the bandwidth that we were charged with, nearly 4gb in hours or less because we don't stream videos, or use other bandwidth hogging activitiesExede Customer Service continue to tell us that we must have used this data allowanceOur fear was that this will continue to happen and that we will have our use "throttled" by ExedeSince we rely on having a usable internet connection for our rural livelihood we were scared by the fact that we were tied in to two year contract that would not work for usSo we thank ViaSat for their response to our complaintWe now have a way out should we need it.However, we do see advantages of our relationship with Exede over our previous six years with Hughes Net satellite internet, namely faster connection speeds and the unmetered period between midnight and 5amWe have also done a number things: we have installed data monitoring software on all of our devices, we have registered with Satellite Restriction Tracker, we have purchased a new router with monitoring software, and Exede has given us access to MyEsvt.So our plan now is to keep with Exede to see how it worksIf we have another episode of disappearing bandwidth, which other users have branded as theft (Exede using our bandwidth for their maintenance work) we should have the ability to see it and report it to Exede using the monitoring software we have installedWe also have the flexibility of using the unmetered period each day so will be changing our daily work habits.We thank Revdex.com and we thank Exede for taking the time to help us and we will report back to Exede and on public forums of how this systems work for us in the futureWe will be remaining with Exede in the short term at least Sincerely, [redacted] ***
