Problems with Fees and Charges (590 reviews)
WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I'VE EVER HAD
“ I have been with this company for years! It was great at 1st. I have a rental home that I needed to complete work at for a couple months. I called to connect service as I have service at my primary residence. I was given my same terms I have on my current account. I had issues immediately. I started getting calls and bills in spanish right away. I tried to get that fixed and was told they could not change it. I was told all I had to do was call to cancel and there would be no fees. I was told there was nothing else I had to do. I paid my bills while I was doing work. I completed the work and the service was cancelled. I was charged a $175 cancellation fee. I have had to call several times trying to get this fixed and I keep getting the run around. I have talked to 2 escalation managers and been given conflicting info. The 1st one (Angel)said he fixed my issues and the fee would come off in about 6 days. It didnt. I called and talked to another one (Murali) who was so rude and not helpful or understanding at all. He actually laughed at one point. I told him many times I did not wish to speak to him anymore and wanted to talk to his boss. He denied me this for quite a while before our call ended somehow at 56 mins! He called back minutes later and said he would put in request for me to talk to his boss and the boss would call me within 48 hrs. It never happend. I since sent a detailed email to customer service addressing all this and never got a response. I have finally filed a complaint with BBB (Better Business Bureau) for 1st time ever in my life in hopes they help resolve this. I have spent hours trying to get this fixed. I want to pay my actual bill. They claim they have calls recorded yet they dont go back and listen. I was told by Murali that Angel did not put anything in the notes and implied I was not telling the truth without actually saying it. Murali was SO RUDE! I just sent another email to another customer service link I found in further hopes this wont get reported to my credit before resolution as I pay my bills. Avoid this company, it has gone to the wayside since the new owner took over it appears ”

pricing and fees
“ I selected a fixed rate plan and seems like I'm paying more than the 12 cents and the fees are high. I will be switching back to my old company after my contract expires. ”

Feeling Scammed.
“ I was coming up at the end of my contract so I called to end my tides with Frontier. I decided to go with another company after being informed about my services set up to be the same price no matter if I was using less than 1200 whatever and could have had paid a lower amount in the fall months when I don't need to run the heat or AC. Well after an hour the rep had offered me a better deal and said he would waive the charges for the late fee. Today I had to talk to a rep because I was charged an additional $28.00 for being late just one day. I asked for that fee to be waived and was told that I have been given 1 and that it had to be approved, she told me she will send me a text with confirmation or a decline, 6 hours plus, and nothing. I can't find out where I can file a complaint, so I decided to write this review. I have a son with severe Asthma who uses a nebulizer daily can hardly afford the 163.00 I owe let alone an additional 28.00 dollars and I can't have my utilities shut off. At this point, I want to end my relation have the contract waived without the early termination fee. If I was told that a 28.00 fee will automatically apply a 28.00 dollar fee I would have declined to agree to another term. Just what to pay what I owe and move on. Ridiculous to charge customers $28.00 late fee for being 1 day late especially with this Co-vid 19 mess affecting people's income and they can barely pay rent or put food on the table. ”
