  Dear Kisis *****:
  We appreciated the opportunity to review the details of the reported service issues.  
  Ive been unable to reach the Palmers through the alternate phone number listed in the complaint or on file. I left a voicemail with my contact information and created a dispatch for a technician to repair the line. The dispatch ticket number is WOT2853919, scheduled for 9/23/25.
  Once services are restored, well apply the appropriate credit to their account for the time service was down.
  We appreciate ***** ****** for taking the time to contact the BBB to inform us about the matter. We apologize for any issues due to the experience and inconvenience.

  
  Sincerely,

  Brightspeed appreciates the opportunity to review the BBB complaint regarding Mr. ***** *****.
  
  I contacted Mr. ***** and left a detailed voicemail acknowledging his request to restore internet service. I confirmed that his repair ticket (WOT2818654) has been escalated and is scheduled to be worked no later than Tuesday, September 16.
  
  I assured Mr. ***** that I will continue to monitor his repair ticket closely and will follow up with him once the work is completed to confirm that his internet service has been successfully restored. Additionally, I will ensure that an Out-of-Service credit is submitted to his account to reflect the time his service was unavailable.
  
  Mr. ***** has been provided with direct contact information should he have any further questions or concerns. We remain committed to resolving this matter promptly and appreciate his continued patience.

  Since early July, we have had NO internet service. I have spoken with customer service approximately 20 times and spent close to 10 hours on the phone, but all to no avail. I have been through every trouble shooting protocol. Theyve sent a new modem. All to no avail. We have had an appointment for a Brightspeed service technician to come to the house and fix the issue, but that appointment has been cancelled, moved, and rescheduled 6 times. It has once again now been moved back by a week. I am unable to get anyone from this country on the phone; I am unable to get a supervisor on the phone; and we have been unable to get anyone at Brightspeed to help. It has now been more than 2 months without internet and Brightspeed has once again cancelled the service appointment and moved it back by a week. Further, Brightspeed continues to charge us for internet service. Their response - they cant/wont issue a credit until service is restored. This has gone no where, and there is seemingly no way to get someone to help. Please help!

  Dear ******,

  We want to extend our sincerest apologies for the prolonged disruption to your internet service and the unacceptable experience you've endured since early July. We recognize the immense frustration caused by repeated service appointment cancellations, extensive time spent on the phone, and the lack of resolution despite your persistence and patience.
  Youve taken every reasonable stepcompleting troubleshooting protocols, replacing equipment, and reaching out to our support team over 20 times. That effort should have resulted in a timely and effective solution, and we deeply regret that it did not.
  We also acknowledge your concern about not being able to speak with a supervisor or a representative based in your region. We understand how important clear and responsive communication is, especially when dealing with a service issue that has lasted over two months.
  Furthermore, we recognize the added frustration of being charged for a service that has not been delivered. While our current policy delays issuing credits until service is restored, we understand how unfair that feels in your situation. We are actively reviewing your case to ensure it receives the attention it deserves, and we will work to make this right. I will make sure to personally add the credit for the downtime to your account.
  Please know that your experience does not reflect the standard of service we strive to provide. We are escalating this matter internally and will do everything we can to expedite a resolution. You deserve better, and we are committed to earning back your trust.
  Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and again, we are truly sorry.

  Sincerely,

  ******

  Good Afternoon,

  I wanted to reach out again now that I see your repair has been completed and service restored. WOT2748244 is showing as completed on 9/12/2025 with Notes: "on and off the phone with programming  for 4 + hours  finally  got everything working restored HSI"
  I went ahead and gave credit for 3 months. They should be posted to the account by 10/2/2025.

  Also I wanted to thank you for your explanation for the rejection. I didn't realize our customers were only given 2 very black and white choices for responding.

  Kind regards,

  Better Business Bureau:
  
  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to my complaint, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.
  

  the resolution works for me   As for the issue and my experience, here goes:   The technician, ******, was fantastic!   He spent nearly 6 hours at our house resolving the issue(s).    He would not leave until it was resolved.   He spoke with (3) different programmers - (1) of which was a lead or supervisor.    He spoke with 3 or 4 other technicians in the area for input.   They were all perplexed!    That being - Everything reading from the front office to the modem showed the internet WAS working.   However, it was NOT working.  They tried EVERYTHING, but to no avail.   Then, as a last ditch effort, they switched the port at the main switch several miles from our home.    Finally, this did the trick.    However, none of them had ever seen a bad port show that is was working all the way to the modem, but truly not work .   Regardless, they eventually got it resolved   

  my frustration - your people were were great, but your system was lacking!   It took 2.5 months to get someone here to resolve what was granted a very unique issue given the symptoms.   However, at some point prior to 2.5 months, the system should have realized OR the process should have had a way to get the matter elevated without going this route.
  

   Finally, the appointments repeatedly being cancelled or pushed back was too much.    I appreciate that our situation  was VERY unusual, but at some point there had to be a recognition that something was off.

  Thank you.

  Brightspeed internet has been out since September 3rd 2025. After 24 hrs of no internet business was contacted and was advised that the earliest date to come out to fix issues is September 10, 2025. Advised that someone would call within 24 hrs since I asked it to be escalated to a manager. After 24 hrs no phone call was received and I called back and advised it would still be the 10th before anyone can come out. I advised I work from home and that internet was essential for my job. Was advised to contact cell phone provider to get more service. Asked about speaking to manager and was turned down. It's really disappointed to have a work from home job without the essential service I need to do my job.

  Date: 09/10/2025

  Dear *****,

  We want to extend our deepest apologies for the extended internet outage you've experienced since September 3, 2025, and for the frustration caused by the delay in resolving the issue.
  We understand how critical internet access isespecially for those who work from homeand we regret that our earliest available appointment was not until September 10, 2025. We also acknowledge that you were promised a callback from a manager within 24 hours, which did not occur, and that your request to speak with a manager was later denied. This is not the level of service we strive to provide.
  We recognize the impact this has had on your professional responsibilities and daily life, and we are truly sorry. While we recommended contacting your mobile provider for temporary service, we understand that this is not a sufficient solution for your needs.
  Please know that your concerns have been heard, and we are actively working to improve our response times and communication processes. We value your business and your patience, and we will be reviewing this incident internally to ensure better service moving forward.

  I lost internet connection on 9.4.25 at 1:54 pm. I called Brightspeed and spoke with a representative who informed me that there were no outages reported in my area. He advised me to unplug my router and modem, but this did not fix the problem. He asked me what color lights were displayed on each box and I advised him the small box has 2 green lights displayed and the bigger box was showing red. He then advises me that a technician would have to be scheduled to come out. He states the next availability would be 9.11.25. That's 7 days without internet service. I work from home and cannot be without the internet that long. This outage is costing me money financially, and to mention the inconvenience reflected on my family. My son is a full-time student online, expecting to graduate in December and he cannot complete his assignments because we have no internet. My home security system is affected because we have no wifi, so I cannot see who is coming to my home when I am not there. I have had a past issue with Brightspeed saying a technician would be out on a specific date and no one showed up until a month later. I cannot deal with this. I also cannot remove my banking information from the website and I would like to have it removed since I have no internet service and will most likely cancel my service if a technician doesn't come out soon. Brightspeed could not tell me why my internet was down. I need a technician sooner than 9.11.25. I want my credit card information removed and autopay removed off my account.

  A few weeks ago I filed a complaint about my mom's landline not working. Brightspeed did resolve the issue and gave her a very partial discount considering how long she was without a phone, however, her phone is out yet again. It has been out for a week.

  I called brightspeed internet in late June 2025 because I was looking for a better company then ******* when my contract ended. They told me they would be installing internet service to my home on July 16th. I agreed to their terms and then proceeded to cancel my *************** for July 17th. Nobody contacted me or came to my house on the 16th. I called to find out what the situation was and the customer service agent said it would be 2 more weeks for installation and that they've expedited my situation. I have be paying a very high default rate to ******** without a contract, while I've been waiting for brightspeed to install. Today Sept 4th 2025, brightspeed sent 2 inept people to install their internet lines to our house but not the internet service. They completely destroyed my front yard and they cut through other utility lines to our house and when I called them they told me they won't install my new service anytime soon and they also won't be fixing the utilities they cut. If I wanted them fixed then I would have to call those companies myself. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. They do not care about their customers at all!!

  My phone and internet went out on8/24.

Their support said all appointments are automatically cancelled, and no new ones can be scheduled.

Existing appointments should not be automatically cancelled when there is an unrelated ********* local county and state are providing funding to Brightspeed to deploy new infrastructure so that residents can have reliable internet and be able to access services, and yet Brightspeed cannot even maintain the infrastructure that it has, nor service its existing customers. Any other company that provides a service like this would be able to provide a repair in a timely manner, within days. Brightspeed, though, leaves its customers without the service they pay for, for weeks at a time.There are frequent outages in the area that leave the entire area without internet. Most services have downtimes measured in minutes or hours, but with Brightspeed, every single area outage requires two days of downtime to remediate.I cannot fathom how such a large internet service provider can fail to provide internet service for such long stretches of time, despite receiving funding from its customers and local governments.

  Since March, 2025, I and surrounding neighbors have dealt with internet outage lasting one day to over one week. I have called the provider numerous times and no explanation is given and only one time was a small credit given to my account. The area I live we have no other options to internet providers. Me and my neighbors rely on internet for business and work. Its incomprehensible that internet service could be so poor in 2025. I have tried to get resolution by contacting the company, but no luck. The internet, when working, is as slow as it can get. Its hard to believe that the area does not have high speed internet/fiber optic cable.

  I am rejecting this response because:  I spoke with Brightspeed yesterday evening, 9/4 at 5:10pm, as they had advised via text message that internet service had been restored at 1:30pm.  My internet service had not been restored.  They communicated there was no area outage.  This information was not accurate.  I spoke with four (4) neighbors, none of them had internet service and they communicated they were receiving same message that I had received.  Earlier today, 9/5 at 11:15am, I reached out to Brightspeed again, again I was told there was no area outage, but I nor any of my neighbors have internet access.  Brightspeed scheduled a technician to come to my home.  The earliest date they could provide was October 2nd and they informed the time would be between 8am and 5pm.  I find this totally unreasonable.  I have received no credit on my bill for these past 9 days and continuing for no service.

  I am rejecting this response because:  Britghtspeed has made no attempt to reach out to me to restore internet.  Myself and neighbors  are all unable to get a response or see any progress restoring internet.  Our internet outage this time is approaching three (3) weeks.  It has been numerous outage since mid-March, Brightspeed responds to me and my neighbors that "their is no outage in the area"  The earliest date for a technician they provided is October 2nd and time between 8AM and 5PM, the same for area neighbors.  I feel this is unacceptable.
