ACT Fibernet Complaints & Reviews

I have paid Rs.1241/- (Rs.550 for installation charges & Rs.691 towards internet subscription charges) on 11.02.2015 Bill No.321893 dt.11.02.2015, Invoice No.596215. Till 17.02.2015, I have made complaints against non-connection and every time they were promised that within 24 hours the issue will be resolved. But no body bothered to update me the status and when they are finally going to give me connection. Today I have sent a mail serving final notice. It is not the question of money. It is more to do with responsibility. Now they are giving me information that the box in my area is full and they are making alternative arrangements. Why can't they check their capacity before going for new connections. One Krishna gave his mobile No.[protected] for any help. It is always out of coverage area.

Hi Sir, I have taken ACT Internet connection just 1 week before. In 1 week 2 times I registered complaint that unable to access Internet. Even though I called multiple times they are not responding.Due to no internet I m unable to work.

Hi Beam, I have taken a new connection for my office on 06/01/2015, at madhapur. Charges explained to me by beam representative are Rs 1122 for monthly rental Rs 500 for installation which total comes upto Rs1672 /- its not the question of Rs 28/- which i have overpaid. its about customer service and response by you people. i have paid the person Rs 1700 /- on asking for change he intimated me that it will be reflecting in the beam account. when checked SOA of beam as they mail every new customer it reflects Rs 1672/-. as soon as seen i have raised a complaint regarding the same after checking online to beam customer support ([protected]) in the 1st week of FEB 2015. Ticket was closed with out calling back and responding to the query. on calling back regarding closer of the ticket the received a very rude answer regarding payment. As i am here with billing discrepancy how can i pay the amount. after speaking to agent answer received was i did not pick the call and asked me to send the bill copy to [protected]@beamtele.co.in. which i have sent and requested the team not to suspend my account as its a issue from beams end with getting clarification on the complaint raised as it is used for business purpose which would severely effect. but still beam has suspended my account and i am unable to connect to the internet. Now when called to customer care they are only concerned about the payment which to be done by me rather they are least bothered about the money which i have over paid. dont you think this is called cheating and misconduct of trust. i have a receipt which was given by your representative. Receipt no: 244414. which was scanned and mailed to [protected]@beamtele.co.in and [protected]@beamtele.co.in. After raising complaint on 15/02/2015 regarding no action taken on the ticket raised and suspended account. Supervisor from your company promised to resolve the issue with in 24hr from raise of the complaint. after 24hr i did not receive any call from any of your teams regarding it. Again i have called on 16/02/2015 regarding the issue. promised to get a call back from the back end team by 2:30pm same day. now the status is its still investigating it will take another 24hrs. does beam telecom has a office any where in hyderabad where i can come my self and show the proof of the same and resolve my issue by myself. as termed by you that we are lying at our end. can some one look into it and resolve else we have to look for another option and escalate the same where ever it is possible. my account no and details.

This has happened multiple times before, and i'm starting to question the actual reliability of ACT fibernet. Having a slower internet connection all the time is better than having a faster connection sometimes. I called customer service & was told the problem would resolve at 6 pm during both consecutive days. In fact, everytime i called (even previous connection failures in the past), i was given the same answer; "It will be resolved at XXX time". Not to my surprise, i was brushed off. I think it's probably because you think there's no competition for faster internet. So all the complaints are treated akin to toenail clippings. I think you should stop overestimating the loyalty of your clients. You may not be affected by 1 less customer, but hey if there's 1 thing i can do, it's to vent my frustration to the social media & online forums, & maybe reduce your customer by 2. Or maybe more? Hugs & Kisses, Ex-unhappy client.

Sir, My Internet broadband connection was cut without prior notice. On Sunday(08/02/2015) night I had issue in connecting to Internet, I tried to call ACT customer care, but I got automated reply saying customer support is not available at that time. I registered a complaint with ACT next day ie on Monday(09/02/2015). I received a call from ACT representative on Tuesday(10/02/15) saying that the cable is crossing the power line and he has to transfer the issue to different department to rectify this. After this I don't get any response form ACT. I have done multiple calls to ACT customer care also visited ACT office in horamavu road, I got a multiple response 1) Cable is crossing power line, I have been using this connection for more than a year, I don't see any new power line laid around my place. 2) Switch is broken, there is not port for your connection 3) There is no permission to lay switch 4) There is no port for giving the connection 5) At ACT office, representative mention, it is the company policy not to lay cable crossing power line What ever is the reason, it should have informed and should have provided alternative solution before disconnection was made without my notice.

I have made 10+ calls to customer care in the past 2 days, that internet is not working. Work is getting impacted because internet is down and asked the customer care to empathize the situation and treat it as emergency. No call back. No escalation. Very poor service.

HI team, I have raise a disconnection issue on 2nd of feb 2015 but still struggling to resolve with ACT technical team. And without resolving they are closing the request . Don't know to whom I need to contact . I have tried reaching to technical guy who says please don't reopen the issue as it has been already resolved. And ask not to call again on his number.

You ACT Broadband service is really frustrating. From past two and half days we are calling to you customer care and explaining our issue of not getting Internet. Your people just do time pass by telling do this and do that and end up with not able to identify whit's the issue. You customer care number also charges us too much. We take Internet for doing office work at home and you guys don't understand the urgency of this. Bad service.

Hi, I'm Ashwin. I subscribed for ACT on 9th Jan 2015. My documents was accepted on 11th Jan. The payment was accepted on 12th Jan. I was supposed to get the connection within 10 days as per the SMS I received from ACT Team. After a few days, an ACT electrician installed a distribution box at my home and told me that the technical team will connect the cables to your workstation. The technical team never showed up. So, I registered an ACT request No [protected] on 16th Jan spoke to Prashanth from ACT who assured that this will be solved within 24 hrs. Surprisingly, I got a SMS that my broadband service has been activated and with it my username and password. Next day(17th Jan), I got a SMS that the ticket has been resolved, and to reopen the ticket, type "N" and send to [protected] which I sent.On 21st Jan(The Day I should have got the connection), I got the same SMS that the ticket has been resolved, and to reopen the ticket, which I sent on 22nd Jan. And again on 24th Jan with the same SMS.I had requested the ACT Team(Prashanth, Kiran, Chiranjeevi and Anand) on different occasions to provide me with an internet connection. So far, no one from the technical team has responded. Note: I'm using BSNL connection to write this review. The only update I get is that this issue will be resolved in 24 hrs and the periodic SMS to reopen the ticket. Today (1st Feb 2015) I got my first E-Bill to pay Rs.508 from Team Act. How nice of them to be so prompt in generating the Bill.FYI, I still haven't got my [censored]G internet connection yet ACT Team. This system is totally stupid!!! The ACT Team wants me to pay for the internet I haven't used at all? Any kid with a little bit of common sense can prevent this error from happening. What exactly is the Team doing?

PLEASE REFUND AMOUNT IMMEDIATELY

Hi, I had a pretty bad experience while dealing with ACT Broadband Internet connection. This incident happened even before getting a new broadband connection. I paid the full amount(Rs. 7072) for next 6 months which does qualifies for a 7th month free net connection and free installation charges. I just applied for a net connection through act tv website on 24tn Jan'15 . ACT tv broad band guy(Srinath ([protected])) responded back on 25 th Jan'15 and came home and explained about the plan and received the full amount and flew away. He promised the installation and everything will be completed within a day and at worst case it will extend to 4 days. Today its 30th Jan 2015 and no sign of any installation. and the guy who received the amount for broadband connection isn't bothered to pick my call. My query is, if they can't provide a net connection on time then why are they stealing my valuable and hard earned money and doing fake promise to provide net connection. Thanks, Guru

Greetings, I would like to bring to the jumbo circus employees some discrepancies with regards to my beam a/c 206705. Billing: This area needs to serious coordination, looks like a bunch of jokers are handling this area. Please find below consolidated facts and interpretation from your own document (attached). Sept -2013 I had paid upto Sept 3, 2013 and applied for disconnection. As I am an NRI, I could call from my registered mobile number and your agents in the call center cannot think outside the script so I was dinged unfairly for Sept 2013, which I had to pay on Sept 26 as your jokers dont have a process in place. Oct - 2013 Post that, some retarded jack asses decided to bill me again for Oct 2013, Now you billing department either has no clue on whats going on or this is just a rip-off project. Screw the customer and get billing in any ways. Dec 2014 / Jan 2015 When I come back and apply for reconnection, I am again dinged. This time in addition to the package there is a "pro-rata" amount of Rs 500 + (apprx) which needs to be paid. I paid a visit to your office on Jan 16th, and met Sree Deepaak Prasanna Kumar Reddy and brought to his attention this issue among other ones. He assured me that some "expert" would look into this issue and let me know. Monday Jan19th, 2014 another Jackass from billing calls and tells me that my a/c is overdue. I had to explain that there is an issue and "expert" needs to revert. Finally, later on Jan 19th, Mr Deva ( God Himself) had to call from your billing department and acknowledged that the amount was billed incorrectly and post approvals, the adjusted amount will reflect in my a/c. During this conversation I also indicated that Sept 2013 was also incorrect and he assured me that he will look into this. Now all this was Mr Deva's blessings as no one in the organization apart from him was aware (no case notes). If he ran away with his wife then ..my money was out of the window again. Now this did not happen as my account was suspended on Jan 22, due to non-payment of dues. EXCELLENT Work, the jokers pulled a fast one on the Jumbo Circus...you bunch of nit-wits should be proud of your selves. Now comes the best part, I call for disconnection and Mr Butter Brain says that its not needed to disconnect as my account is already suspended. Furthermore, this would be considered at month end. Why ? If you can charge me pro-rata for connection, why the bloody hell do you guys not consider pro-rata disconnection ? I want to let you know that I have not used your services since Jan 21, 2015, so please dont get any wise crack ideas to bill me wrongly.

They have collected an annual membership amount by promising of providing broad band connection within 2 days. after that the person who has collected the amount or the customer care are not responding at all. The first time when I contacted they have registerd a complaint but there was no action even after 2 days complaint ID - [protected]

Hi, This is not expected as a standard service. I have not recieved any feedback for this request yet and the query still remains unresolved. request a strict timeline for this completion of set up. Please provide a final set-up timeline and failing to which I will raise this in public forums. Please consider this as test to patience for such poor bugus service. Irresponsible company since at the time of payment i was rushed into to make payment and now the delay has been significant. This is really annoying and not satisfactory! please let me raise this issue with the higher authority which i will find out very soon.

I have made the necessary payment with a request that the set up should take place in 3-5 days due to my urgency at work (@ HSR layout). Bhushan has confirmed that set up would be done that week, but its crossed more than a week and I would firmly request this set up to be done ASAP. If no done by today COB, please reimbuse the amount immediately. Again, my payment was made depending upon the urgency of the set up required. My calls to Bhashan are unanswered too over the past few days. I am not sure who else do i escalate this matter with. regards, Somu #[protected] We confirm receipt of Rs.1259 via CHEQUE towards ACT A/c No 1113125.

Its almost 3 weeks over and I didn't get connection. In beginning they said it will take max 1 week and now When ever I call them they say it they will install connection by today. Even they are not returning my Rs.1680 which I paid as advance.

I applied for ACT fibernet and paid the money by Jan 5th 2015. I was informed that I would be getting the connection within 7 working days. There was no response from ACT for the next 7 days and I called customer support many times. I was not given any proper help or support. On the 9th day one guy came and fitted one box. Then again no response from these cheaters. Now I am thinking of cancelling the application and refund. But they are not attending my calls now. Can someone help me with this?

no immediate action when a complaint is raised. complaint is getting closed without problem solving. worst behaviour with customers. I suggest people go for their colony local broadbands. as they are local in case any problem occurs they will take as early action as possible. Never go for beam.

I have taken an ACT fibernet connection and right from day 1, I am having Port Problem (as reported by the engineer). The port in which my ACT fibernet is connected seems to be not a stable port and every time somebody is having a problem in the same junction box, some engineer comes and does some thing that my ACT fibernet stops working..this has happened 4 to 5 times and every time it takes two days to bring up the connection. While bringing up my connection, i suspect some other person's connection would be disconnected. There is no permanent solution provided for this.
