    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 20400473, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me.  I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.

    As of this morning (July 17th), the issues related to this customer's service have been fixed. There were larger network issues that required us to replace equipment in the field. The customer has been notified and a month's worth of credits has been applied to their account.

    As a note, due to the fact that this customer refused to troubleshoot with us, we were unable to determine the root cause of the issue hence the reason for the extended timelines to resolution. She was also extremely belligerent via email to our support advisors which is 100% unacceptable. 

    Moving forward, please feel free to reach out to myself, ***** ******* ******************), for any complaints. Since SimplyBits has been acquired by Ting, all of these types of complaints can be directed my way. Thanks for your assistance with this.

     I did NOT refuse to trouble shoot i refused to call

    i wanted it all in email so i had logs of it

    i do not have any recourse on a phone call and i told them that  multiple times

    they were rude and refused to communicate through email

    i do not accept their response

    the issue was fixed but not on july 7

    i had 18 days of no service

     

    they did adjust the bill but then billed me anyway

    i had to get the email where the credit was due

    hence the email logs were needed that is all the proof i needed that i require logs to communicate with them

    shameful

    Customer was credited for their July bill and this was emailed to them as per their request. Since they were invoiced before the credit was sent through they would have received an invoice first and then a follow up email outlining the credit being applied. All of this was handled via email as per their request. A second invoice with the updated info was also sent to her. I have included both the credit and the updated invoice here for reference.
