    This is the worst business I have ever dealt with. We want to cancel service because the home was damaged in Hurricane Laura and is unlivable.. The sales representative told us when we started service in 2015 that we would be able to cancel after 3 years. They will not return calls/email, and are continuing to charge us for a service we are not using at a place we no longer live. We have been dealing with them for over 3 months. The equipment/service is low quality at best. This business uses outside receptionists, so you can't speak to anyone directly. They take a message and say you will be called back, which never happens. It is the most unprofessional service.

    **************

    We regret any miscommunication that occurred on our part. Your home was livable after Hurricane Laura as of March 11, 2022. We visited your residence on this date, March 11, 2022, and installed a new cellular radio. You signed a Customer Site Visit Form and signed a new Service Agreement during this visit. Both documents are included below for your reference. Should you wish to cancel your service, please contact us at (888)642-4567 at your earliest convenience.

    Better Business Bureau:



    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 21837607, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. I called the number given and actually spoke to someone about cancelling the service.



    Sincerely,



    ******* ******

    I canceled my services in 2020 and the company has continued to auto draft monthly from my account until Feb 2023. I have attempted to contact the billing department or supervisor over 7 times within a 3 week timeframe and each representative states they will send over a message and the department will call back. I have yet to receive a call back.
