psybelle: (shit.)
I checked the activity in the account Speakeasy just billed, and they did *not* bill me in March or April - this is the first charge since February. I'm still going to abuse the billing staff at length and at volume - I want the refund I never received for what was taken out of my account in January and February as well as this most recent charge.

And I'm still going to write letters of complaint. Speakeasy, Megapath, assorted Chambers of Commerce, Better business Bureau... Who else?
psybelle: (. . .)
And all that smooth just evaporated got incinerated. I noticed that a name on a credit card billing statement actually wasn't what I'd been reading it as... Speakeasy is still billing me for the services I haven't had since the beginning of January.


Apparently, there was something unclear about, "Please cancel my account, I no longer wish to do business with you."


Of course, it being Sunday, there's nobody in Billing... It's time for another letter, as well as hot&cold running phonecalls on Monday.
To whom it may concern:

I'm trying something new.

  Since my emails to customer service people seem to be pretty useless (an email with the correct address to ship a loaner modem did not result in me receiving said modem; emails to THREE different email addresses requesting a return label for said modem, since it didn't fix the problem, got NO response whatsoever; and an email requesting that my bill be prorated to reflect the lack of DSL service was likewise ignored)....

  And, since I never had anybody contact me about any of the notes left on various trouble-tickets, demonstrating that that's not a good avenue for communication (not that I place much faith in the website as a whole - the website claims that the "legendary" customer support is located in Seattle, while all the customer service people I talked to were 4 time-zones ahead of me - Quebec? Then again, maybe that much is true - the legendary people are still in Seattle, just not working for you anymore?)...

  And, since the people I talked to on the phone have been, for the most part, remarkably unhelpful and somewhere between misinformed and untruthful: A service rep should be able to correctly interpret solid and flashing lights on a modem. It really should not take TWO phone-calls and A WEEK for a modem to be "overnighted" to me (two days after the latest promised delivery date). And a service rep, when given windows of availability in which to schedule a technician visit, REALLY should be able to schedule that visit in one of THREE four-hour windows (and if that's not possible, NOTIFY THE CUSTOMER rather than schedule the tech visit for some random time)...


  ....I'm resorting to paper. After nearly a decade, I no longer wish to do business with you. Please close my account and void my Speakeasy email addresses. You are fired as my ISP.

Very sincerely,
(not customer number xx801 anymore)
