aware that there was an issue.On 7/9 I became aware that my bank account was debited for the full amount of the bill including the disputed charge.Now when I called to complain I heard for the first time that I had a responsibility until the end of the contract year.I asked to speak to a supervisor.I was told that he would call me back.Nobody called so I contacted my bank and disputed the payment.I spent hours on the phone waiting and transferred again and again and the bottom line was that I was offered a better monthly rate.When I made it clear that I dont need this service I was told that if I stop service now I would be charged an early termination fee.To summarize-I was lured into a free service without full disclosure.Xchange is now charging me and is not allowing me to opt out.In my opinion such business practices meet the criteria for fraud.I anticipate that Xchange will take the proper corrective action by terminating the cell service and removing all related charges.Business Response

) they tell us they are working on it and we will be receiving test calls shortly. Nothing doing, no such phone calls. There is no way to speak to anyone besides for the customer service ***** who don't know anything. Finally on 7/17/2024 an engineer called me back and said there was a note in the system from 3/5/2024 that the number could not be ported correctly because it's "multi-line number" (Not sure what that means). I told the engineer it is not. He said he will work on it. I have not heard back from him or anyone higher than him. I have been caling every day. I still do not have my phone number, which was left with *******, and never receive communication from Homeconnex by Xchange Telecom. I would like my number back, a refund for the months I have not had service, and monetary compensation for the ******* account which I could not close (And now we know why it could not be closed)Initial Complaint

Hi, back in June 1st 2023 I started my land-line and internet service with XChange Telecom at 0.99 cents per month,I paid ahead for a full year around $12.00. In addition to $50.00 for the modem. I ONLY SIGNED UP BECAUSE IT WAS 0.99 CENTS.On Jan 2024 I received an email stating that the *** program will stop and the price will go up.I immediately contacted XChange Telecom asking to CANCEL my services and get a refund for the remaining CREDIT balance (Since like I mentioned I had paid ahead) I was told that I'll receive a the refund both for what I paid ahead and for the Modem,I was also assured that there's no further action due, as my services were successfully canceled and I won't be billed anything since I opt out when I still had credit. Suddenly, on July 2024 I got an email from XChange Telecom COLLECTIONS stating that I have an overdue balance of Approx $28.00. I immediately contacted XChange Telecom again, to see what happened, they then said that the cancelation is still PENDING, and it was initiated on April 11th 2024,And thats why I received the bill, however there's nothing to be concerned as they'll note that and assured me again. (Although my request to cancel was submitted on Jan 2024)At This point I asked for a actual proof such as an email etc,So they said I need to talk to my original sales agent *****************************, they put me on hold for over an hour, When ****** finally picked up he said, that I need to talk to billing, when I told him that billing send me to him, he disconnected the phone. Please send me proof that I don't owe XChange Telecom a *****, as well give me a refund for the money I paid ahead, and the Modem, which I can send you backBusiness Response

Customer can ignore their bill as the disconnect will happen retroactively from 4/11
