I had poor connectivity and a very sloppy installation from Vyve. I elected to cancel my account and opted for another carrier. I returned all equipment, and never heard anything back about a final bill, until months later receiving a bill from a collections agency. After three calls to different people at Vyve, I was finally able to get the final bill sent to me, have my account reactivated, and was then able to pay them directly. My complaint is for late charges that were no fault of mine. Beyond that, the service was extremely unrelaible, and getting anything done with their call center took multiple calls to solve a simple billing issue.Business Response

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: I want the late charges they applied to my bill which I paid because their system and process is so poor that the online phone rep couldn't do so. And even though I paid Vyve directly, I'm still getting calls from the collection agency that NEVER should have been involved. Its an overcharge and a deep invasion of privacy.
Sincerely,

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: While I appreciate Vyve's return of the inappropriate late fees, I am STILL getting harrassing phone calls from the bill collection agency that you NEVER should have sent me to in the first place. I suggest Vyve contact "****** at ***************** Services", phone nbr *********************, to have my information removed from their records. I want verification in writing. My next step will be to initaite a law suit naming both parties for harrassment if their calls continue. This entire issue is 100% Vyve's responsibility.

Vyve Broadband is attempting to collect money for services not provided. I contacted **** multiple times over the past 3 months. I first called them a week before we sold our house to discuss turning in equipment and having the bill prorated since we would not have access to the house after closing on 10/2/23. I was told once the equipment was turned in the bill would be adjusted. I turned in the equipment on 9/26/23, at 236pm and have the receipt. My last bill was in the amount of $129.48 for the date ranges of 9/17-10/16/2023. Adjusting for the period of time after we closed on the house, I made a payment of $64.74 on 10/7/23. On 10/9/23, I checked to ensure the account had been adjusted and found it had not. I contacted **** immediately and was told I needed to turn in the equipment to receive the adjustment. I informed the customer service rep that I already had .He told me to email them a copy of my return receipt. He would also open an equipment investigation escalation, and someone would be in contact with me. On 10/16/23, I contacted **** again and was told that an escalation was never created, but not to worry they would create one and someone would contact me. On 11/1/23 I called customer service again. Another escalation was supposedly created. I was also told that my account had been adjusted back to 10/11/23 as that is when they show my equipment being returned and the new balance was $39.33. I informed them I had turned in my equipment on 9/29/23 and it should be adjusted back to 10/2/23 with a $0.00 balance as I paid for services up to that date. On 11/28/23 I called Vyve yet again. This time I was told to email support directly. I emailed ****************** immediately including my account number, phone number, email and the multiple attempts to reconcile my account. No one from Vyve has ever contacted me. I paid for the internet services through the date it was available. and will not pay for services I did not receive.Business Response

Cancelled cable service & all equipment returned 10/30/2023. Told by office person (in person ) total now due is ***** monthly. That amount paid in Nov ON TIME. Vyve is charging us $219 monthly and they won't change the billing to service receiving as requested and have disputed the charges in Nov and again today for Nov and Dec to no avail. Added late fees we don't owe. Only service we have had since 10/30/23 is phone and low **************** and we just want them to fix it.Business Response

I dealt with bad internet that would randomly stop providing service. When I initially called Vyve, they upsold me to a higher tier service plan at a more expensive price, telling me that would fix the issue. It didn't. The issue only got worse since then, to the point that I would never even use the house wifi, and just used my mobile hotspot for virtually all internet. It was extremely unreliable. As it progressively got worse after several weeks, I called Vyve again to request service at my house to fix the issue. Over the course of a month, I called them AT LEAST 10 times to try to set up service appointments. They came to my house at least 3 times to perform service, none of which would fix the issue. The service was very unreliable, and I was constantly left waiting for a technician to come out. One particular Monday, I called them, and they said someone would be out by the end of the week. By Friday, nobody had still came, and no contact had been made with me, and I had to call them again to ask what the problem is. They nonchalantly said that they would get someone out by Monday or Tuesday, and didn't apologize at all for never sending anyone out like they promised. Finally by Tuesday they came out, performed service, and once again, it didn't fix the issue. By the last visit on 11/17 they actually did fix the service (turns out all they needed to do was replace the modem... why that wasn't one of the first things to try is beyond me). Now, I am seeking a refund for the last 1-2 months of service (~$60 a month) since the internet was basically unusable during this time. **** refuses to give me this refund, despite the majority of this debacle being their fault. They are willing to give me only 6 days worth of refunds, literal crumbs, despite their incredibly terrible service and horrible miscommunication which led to it being such a long, drawn out fiasco. I am fuming. It is the worst customer service I've ever experienced, it's practically robbery.Business Response

I have been using this service for approximately 3 years. During this time I have had non stop problems with this company. I have had days where I dont have any internet, I call them to find a solution and they either say everything is working fine and they cant/wont do anything or there is nothing they can do for me. The last time I had an outage they told me everything was working fine and I needed to just pay for my own equipment to make my internet work better. Later that week after having no internet for a few days I located and down cable line laying across my driveway. That cable line was the line that was supposed to be connected to my house. The line was still charged and had internet running through it. The tech had to come to my house after a couple of days after I reported it and fix the problem. This company has a lack of fixing issues and just try to put temporary fixes on everything. When something is needed to have a tech come out and actually work on it they will make you wait several days without the services they charge monthly for. This company has been nothing but trouble for me and my neighbors due to them being the only internet company in my area. If you want internet you have to go through them. I honestly feel they know that and know people have no choice but to use their services.Business Response

I have used vyve broadband for over 3 years now. I recently the last year and a half with being with them have had nothing but issues with their service. They charge and arm and a leg for service but yet it NEVER works. I have called to complain, I get hung up on, they do not resolve my issues. My household will be out of business for weeks at a time until they can finally get a technician out here to ***** what the issue is. I have had nothing but issues with this company and they have zero compassion for their costumers. They are absolutely disgraceful to be called a business in our small town. We as a community are paying them for their service when again, their service is always down. We never have estimated times of service restoration and get the same excuse every time we call (if we get through to someone without being hung up on).Business Response
