Last month I received a notice I owed this company over $400 for unreturned equipment associated with my internet account with this company. Upon further investigation after calling the company I was told my service had been cancelled and disconnected as of Sept 1 2022. The date I called was Sept 20 or so and I still had service well beyond the date of disconnection. I was told I was being disconnected for a insufficient funds e-check I had drafted to pay my account in August. I did in fact draw a non sufficient fund check by accident when I selected the checking account I wanted the funds taken from was an older account I had since closed through my bank. I didn't realize my mistake until I received a voicemail from the company about a week later. When I realized what I did, I got online and paid using my current checking account. After going back and forth for some time, I finally got my service turned back on. However, after two requests I made, the company has yet to remove the extra charges and still says I owe over $400 on the account. I would like these extra charges immediately removed and have only the correct current balance showing what i owe. No further payments will be made until this is done.Business Response

***** ******* that is my internet provider, stopped providing the Internet from Aug 27; the service was recovered on September 2. During the period from Aug 27 - September 2 my family members and I spent hours on the phone trying to obtain help and information from the customer service representatives. The representatives made us to participate in testing our equipment, and after testing it assured us that the problem resulted from our router, not from the Vyve. The representatives encouraged us to buy a new router to resolve the problem. When we expressed doubts in the correctness the advice, the ******* send to us - on Aug 29 - a technician to inspect the internet. We spend hours waiting for the technician. When the technician came he assured us the we lost the internet only because our router is antique. From his cell phone ************* ) the technician send us a picture of the specific router that he recommended to buy. It took us 6 hours to go to *************, we spend $140 for the new router, spend probably $30 for gas. When we came back home and connected the router we still didnt have internet. Next day we call to Vyve against, again we spoke with the representatives, again tested internet under their directions. On September 1, 2022 two technicians came to our house to find the reason for non working internet. After inspecting it, they told us that that the line outside our house was cut, that our router is fine. They told us that we can use Internet. After they left, we found that Internet doesnt work. We called customer service but instead of a person there was a prerecorded voice that informed us that internet did not work due a major major outage in the area. Internet started working We overused ********* and have to pay additional $100 due to the absence of ************* The ******* refused to compensate our losses. We want $500 as a compensation of our lost money, energy and time.Business Response

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:Dear BBB **************** Representatives:On 9/6/2022 I have submitted a complaint against Vyve Broadband, LLC. My complaint was assigned ID *******.I appreciate BBB readiness to help, and the speed of your response to my complaint.Unfortunately, not only did Vyve Broadband, LLC not demonstrate willingness to negotiate, it is much worse - Vyve Broadband, LLC responded to my complaint with a retaliatory action against me.I am forwarding to you the email from Vyve Broadband, LLC. You can read:Additionally, referencing the modem, we noticed no modem lease fee has been charged to you account. We appreciate your loyally since 2014. As a courtesy we will not ***** a modem fee to the next 6 months.After I filed the complaint, Vyve Broadband invented fees that it claims; Vyve is going to raise for me the price of the services to retaliate my complaint to BBB.In reality, I accurately and fully paid my bills since 2014 for all the services that Vyve provided.If Vyve Broadband, LLC has any monetary claim for its services, the company must document it.Otherwise, this sudden undocumented claim of fees that I received immediately after I filed the complaint against Vyve can be viewed only as a retaliation.Vyve wrote that I requested to upgrade my modem ( please, read the forwarded email ).We appreciate the opportunity to speak with you regarding the options to upgrade you modem <>. ( The quotation if from the email mentioned above. )It is a sheer lie. I did not make this request. My family members did not make this request.The rest of the email from Vyve is a mixture of lies and fraud.As I wrote in my original complaint - from Aug 27 through September 2 my family and I lived without Internet due to Vyve failure to provide the services.All members of my family, including me, spent hours on the phone with multiple Vyves customer service representatives requesting help.The representatives requested us to check our equipment - the router, the line, the connections. For hours we were testing the equipment, following the instructions, connecting and disconnecting wires and reporting back to the technicians the status of the signal, the color of the lights on the modem and the router.The technicians assured us that the source of the problem is our router, not ***** services. They advised us to buy a new router. When we expressed doubts in the correction of the advice, the company sent us a technician.On Aug 29, 2022 the technician came to inspect our internet. We spent hours waiting for the technician.He told us that our router is antique. He assured us that we dont have internet because of the old router.The technician, from his cell phone ************* ) sent us a picture of the specific router that he recommended to buy.When **** wrote in the forwarded email that the technician sent us from his telephone a text message to offer a courtesy service to connect a new router - it was a sheer lie.The sending from the technician is available, - I attached it to my original complaint - no courtesy service was offered by the technician, but only the picture of the router that the technician suggested to buy.The technician was a representative of Vyve, his recommendation was a recommendation of Vyve, therefore, Vyve as a company is responsible for the recommendation given by its representative.It took us 6 hours to go to ************* and back, we spent $140 for the new router, spent probably $30 dollars for gas. When we came back home and connected the router we still didnt have internet.Next day we call Vyve, and reported that the equipment we bought as per their recommendations does not work. We spoke with the representatives, and tested internet again under their directions.On September 1, 2022 two technicians came to our house in order to find the reason for non working internet. After inspecting it, they told us that that the line outside our house was cut, that our router is fine. They told us that they cant understand why we were advised to buy a new router. The problem was not router related. They told us that we can use Internet.After they left, we found that Internet doesnt work, again.We called customer service but instead of a person there was a prerecorded voice that informed us that internet did not work due a major major outage in the area. Internet started working We overused AT&T data and have to pay additional $$ due to the absence of ************* Still Vyve not only refused to compensate our losses but also now, it is retaliating the complaint that I brought to BBB by increasing our bill in six months.Vyve is escalating the conflict and and doesnt show willingness to settle it on reasonable terms.I will appreciate BBB help and guidance in this situation.Sincerely,***************************, M.D.-----Original Message-----

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:The reference to the company policy that Vyve made in order to avoid paying compensation for my losses can not be accepted in this case as the stated policy was de facto cancelled by Vyve. Which means that Vyve must compensate my financial losses that the company is completely responsible for.
This de facto cancelation was made by Vyve on Aug 29, 2022 when a Vyve technician came to our house inspect our internet.
He told us that our router is antique. He assured us that we dont have internet because of the old router.
The technician, from his cell phone ************* ) sent us a picture of the specific router that he recommended to buy.
When **** wrote in the forwarded email that the technician sent us from his telephone a text message to offer a courtesy service to connect a new router - it was a sheer lie.
The sending from the technician is available, - I attached it to my original complaint - no courtesy service was offered by the technician, but only the picture of the router that the technician suggested to buy.
The technician was a representative of Vyve, his recommendation was a recommendation of Vyve, therefore, Vyve as a company is responsible for the recommendation given by its representative.
I want to receive a monetary compensation for my losses $500. I also want Vyve to stop retaliation against me that Vyve started after I filled the complaint to BBB.
Please, read the attached document in regard of retaliation against me.

It is Labor Day. I as a Realtor am working. However my internet is down. I'm told by Vyve that their technical support is closed today. A business like phone and internet should not be unavailable on holidays. Not everyone is able to take the day off. I have considerable work to do that I cannot do. Had I realized this was their policy, I never would have signed on to their service. I have clients to whom I cannot send important timed documents. This is totally unacceptable.Business Response

Vyve will continue to bull for a poor service. We have had repeated outages in the past, but because we choose to auto pay they have blocked billing and have informed me that I can't cancel my service till the end of a billing month.

My internet service is extremely unreliable and constantly drops out. 10-30 times a day I will lose connection for 10-60 seconds and then it will return. But even when it’s working I have bad packet loss and extreme jitter. I’ve replaced all my equipment twice and had multiple Vyve Technicians come to the house and tell me there’s nothing wrong but the problem persists. Several people on my town are complaining about the same issues and Vyve ignores it and acts like everything is fine. Shouldn’t be paying for service that isn’t reliable. Also, my “1 Gig Speeds” are like sub 500 too…Needs to be fixed for not just me but apparently the whole town. Fort Gibson, OK.Business Response

Vyve Broadband of Mt Shasta, CA insists this is their page. If it is, they don't read it or actually change policy based on these complaints. There are a series of complaints about the same issue I have listed here. Upon leaving their service, like the list of others here, I was billed repeatedly for equipment I told them I was unable to return (I moved on a weekend and they had no mail service to the town I moved to at that time). Several bills later I was still not charged and then without warning I was sent to a creditor. The first bill should have been enough. It was just like every other bill ever sent. I should have just been charged and that should have been the end of it. Without correct information, they damaged my credit. Then when I contacted them about the issue they went to great extents to indicate that the whole issue, the lack of communication and all, was my fault. This went on in messages from the lower-end workers at the phone to the superiors I complained to. The exiting procedures for this company are clearly built against the customer, they know that from past experience, and still blame the customer for their poorly informed and bad customer service. BBB needs to take a serious look at this company given there are a string of such issues.Business Response

Vyve bought out our local cable company about a year ago, ~July 2021. Ever since, they have been charging us a monthly fee of $14.99 for *** services. To get *** services, you need a *** receiver unit. We do not have one. We did years ago, but returned it some time in 2020. The local cable company at the time stopped charging us for the *** that we returned, but as soon as **** took over, the over charging began. **** says they don't have the ***. We have called them many many many many times in 2021 and 2022 to get this issue fixed. They always tell us they will have someone look into it, but never do. They continue to over charge us every month and we want it to stop. They have never reached out to us to resolve the situation. To date, they have over charged us $194.87 and will not be stopping any time soon. In July 2022 I sent a letter to their local office in ************, ********** as well as the billing address in *************, ** stating the above complaint, but I have received no response.

We called Vyve customer service in June 2022 to cancel our service our house we owned and lived at. Our renter was moving in the following month. I asked where should I take back the router? (Usually internet companies have you take router to a return location upon move out/cancellation). Customer agent instructed me to leave the router for the renter to use. We then got a **** in the mail 7/19/22 for $105 for a router. I texted my tenant to ask her what happened. (I have snapshot of this conversation in text). She said when she scheduled the install appointment, Vyve customer service said that the previous agent talking to me was wrong she will need to get a new router. But at the appointment, the install rep said never mind and just transferred her account information to our previous router in front of my tenant, ********* To me, it sounds like the install technician may have kept a router intended for installation at my tenants residence but I cannot speculate further. We were leaving the country that day, and could not engage customer service. 15 days later, we have received a COLLECTIONS letter from Vyve. First of all we werent even given enough time to respond to this!!Second our tenant is using our router for Vyve currently. We should not owe Vyve $105, and they need to have this collection erased from our record. Our financial security rests on our credit scores for our business and this is a ridiculous claim. Please help us in rectifying this. Vyve should be having a conversation with whoever installed my tenants internet in July and NOT charging my family and sending us to collections in the span of mere days. Unheard of and completely unprofessional.Business Response

The first week and/or the last week of every single month I get little to no internet from Vyve. It's not even a hyperbole. Literally every month my WiFi (which I pay around $88 for to get up to 500mb of speed) *****. I have a couple of Wi-Fi analysis apps to tell me the upload speed and the download speed. Today, just like every other month, my download speed is less than 1mb. Since this happens literally every single month I don't think it's right that I have to pay the amount I do.Seriously wishing a better Wi-Fi company would set up in Ottawa so I can transfer. Out of all the other Wi-Fi companies, Vyve is the only one worth getting which is pretty garbage when considering the fact that I get little to no Wi-Fi connection in the beginning of every month.Business Response
