    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.

    fikester got a reaction from dhutch54 in HughesNet response to my BBB complaint   
    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?

    The scientist claim the upload beams do not get congested: 



    Can anyone with a "good dish alignment" using WB post consistent uploads speeds all hours of the day?
