It has been a while since my last visit in this particular forum, as some of you know I got rid of hughenet a long time ago for DSL. Anyway, I thought I would come back and see the complaints on Hughesnet, but to my shock, no posts since 2012! So, either Hughesnet have got better at what they do (highly unlikely) or they have less users to complain about the service or maybe people have got used to what they have. Either way, just dropping into an old haunt to say hi!

Got rid of Hughes... For years it was the same game: launch a new satellite up, overload it then lie to paying customers about performance issues. Hughes seems to hope that most people wont ever figure out they arent getting what they pay for....not to mention hope they dont understand data caps. Takes quite an effort to even get past the script readers for a key player in getting problems fixed. What a relief dont have that hassle any longer. Verizon 4G unlimited plan for me.

After telling me zero cost, Hughes tried to turn a zero into 199.99? 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? ::::::::::..
