HughesNet response to my BBB complaint

Recommended Posts

HughesNet has responded to my BBB complaint with an offer to give me new equipment. They still do not admit there is a problem, but why would you offer free stuff unless there is. You can read the details on my HughesNet blog/website, along with speed test results.

Well hopefully the newish satellite will be more high speed.  Unless they over sell before the next one in 2012.

Hughesnet would love to get the customers off of the old KU satellites, but there is the cost of subsidizing units.

But there is always that magic switch at Hughesnet that can shut off the service to all the KU's. Leaving it to the customer to upgrade at their own cost.  :tickedoff:  Well since service is not guaranteed and all that bullshiat in the contract, that doesn't have a chance in court.

This is what Hughes did for me as well.....should be on Spaceway3 next week. From what I'm reading and looking at my brothers speeds the Ka system will be much better........for now anyway.  I read somewhere that another satellite is going up, but until then they will continue to install and move others like us having complaints onto the Ka band equipment. From my past experiences with getting moved to different sats and transponders.......speeds will be good for awhile, then eventually get overcrowded.

The HN9000 on Spaceway 3 will be absolutely great for 31 days...........  Please be sure to report your lousy speeds on day 33!!!!!!

Yeah, its like bait and switch................Let you have NEAR PERFECT speeds for 30 days while you are in your "SATISFACTION GUARANTEE"...... Then day 32, when you are in a CONTRACT, they just do what ever the hell they want to........

The NOC will never admit to any "traffic shaping", "throttling", or any other kind of network prioritization practices.

I would have kept Hughesnet if they didn't play so dirty . . .  then just outright deny it.

These current users that are getting moved off the 7000 systems.  I'd like to see your speeds in the second month.  While KA band is better, I bet you dont have your full plan's speed after that . . .

Let the countdown begin.....Spaceway3 installed and thanks to the BBB all free, install went well. Only complaint is my old 7000S had a 375MB limit on the pro plan, the 9000 with the same plan is 300MB so will need the pro plus to get 425MB threshold ......speeds on the pro plan are as advertised currently 1200/200  :grin2:

Will my speeds change in 33days....will be interesting to see?

Don't forget about the Hughesnet 2am to 7am eastern,  FAP free time.    Great for Windoze updates and software downloads.

By the way, Its an  HN9000, not a DW9000 system (in your signature line).

I had the Pro + Plan from signup. 425MB a day was plenty allowance for me.  I had 1.5mbps From May 13, 2009 to Jun 15.... That's when the downhill batte began.  Tech support always blamed the slow speeds from 4pm to 11:59pm on "peak time".....Average 300-500Kbps.

However, from day 1 to 32-33  I was at about 95% of my Plans speed 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK.

So, no one can't argue that they don't deploy some kind of throttling or traffic shaping software.  (they could easily download it in your modem and you would not even know it).

Your right its HN9000 ....I know what your saying definitely had speed issues on the old system. Prior to this most recent issue about a year or so ago had the same deal with the slow downs during peak hours after getting switched to a different transponder the speed was fine until abut a month ago? My brothers system will see 30days this week using the Spaceway3, I'm very curious of the outcome, he is on the base package too.

On, say,  day 34, start doing like a couple of speed tests during the AM, and one like at 3pm, 6pm and 8pm (1 hour BEFORE peak time, twice during it).

Matter of fact, I'd tell him to start doing them NOW (so you will have proof that the speeds changed).....

Do the tests on the Hughesnet Speetest Page (so they can be documented).

I think its at  customercare.myhughesnet.com

I been looking for this data to post, but it was offline on another hard drive.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had this same series of events occur on TWO Hughesnet Accounts. This is the SECOND ACCOUNT. DSS825XXXX.

After signing up for this SECOND account upon the recommendation of Hughes ECC (They could NOT figure what was wrong with the FIRST system). As I will post the previous results of the FIRST system next...

This just goes to show you that HUGHESNET offers you PERFECT speeds for the FIRST 30 days when you are a new user of the system. Speeds were close to the advertised speeds of the PRO PLUS plan (1.6mbps - fap 425MB/day).

5/13 to 6/14 Awesome Performance. Consistent Performance. Was NEVER fapped during that period. Speeds during so called "PEAK TIME" were never affected.... (later on, the major excuse by tech support)..  95% of the PRO PLUS plan at ALL TIMES 24/7

NOW, Look at 6/15 to 6/19. a DRASTIC decrease in speeds.

Note... None of these times were in FAP, and there was nothing wrong with the equipment. (noting there a few high spikes in speeds several times).

6/15 is when I called ECC again. First words out of their mouths "We do not guarantee speeds... Accept the system with its flaws of cancel immediately...... I wanted to hear what Tier-4 had to say again, and of course, the same ole excuses....They never or will admit that they throttle, and the NOC will never be available for a discussion. FINALLY, on 6/20, ECC stated "we will NOT go through this again, We will cancel your account immediately, and you are no longer obligated...Please return your equipment".

Ok, they didn't want to deal with a problem that has repeated itself TWICE! Actually on 6/19, I had TOLD them to cancel it, and I was going to dispute any charges to my credit card.

Some people probably dont mind being throttled.....But It I was going to pay $79.99 a month for 1.6mbps service... i'm going to get it or else. Else happened to be the outcome.

If the SAME has happened to you and you aren't complaining....well, then you deserve the sucky speeds you are getting.

Damn good deal.  :smiley:

After telling me zero cost, Hughes tried to turn a zero into 199.99?  :protest: I caught this on logging into my account and immdeiately called executive dept. Reminded them of the zero cost we agreed to. After 4days my plan was finnally upgraded....hopefully it hangs at this during the later evening hours?

Well thats what happens when you sign your bank account over to Hughesnet. Oh, wait. I mean, pay electronically without the choice of getting a paper bill in the snail mail.

Better you caught it now instead of 3 months later like a lot of people.

I got a credit card linked to the account.....at least a person could dispute a charge? Had a gut feeling that would happen.
