ACT Fibernet Complaints & Reviews

The beam whose service I have been using for almost 3 years use to pay monthly payment in advance I use to be regular in payment of my dues even I had regular cutouts of service in every months but suddenly they where forcing me to give electricity
The box was not in my area or i was not giving any electricity for last 3ye

This month feb 10th they discounted my service saying that they don't have box permission for current and till alternate arrangements are made they will keep by account blocked or in no service area
I personal met "Raj" a senior employee in beam network at krishnanagar Hyderabad office, as per his saying he wont give me service or wont refund the remaining amount as due
I personally said if you cant give service it is the beam network has to refund the advance of rs 600/- and last month advance payment of 1200 which I made as my billing date is 10th of every month these people never responded all my call complaints in the beam call center as no technical team approached or was said they cant provide me service
As there same service is been given all through the area and also in my own flat and these people has ignored me by saying I need to give them electricity to their box then only they will provide me service for this reason I am fed up with their service sudden stop of service also resulted in loose of par time business that I have been doing at home online for their negligence and unpaid interest
Even they are not giving us last month advance and rental paid to beam as well their service I hope that if this could make their department know that only my connection was barred for not giving service for sake of electricity from my home This is one way of humiliation and torture for using their service for long time they have show me

Hi I have requested to transfer my connection from Rajajinagar 5th Block to 3rd block, also I told them in 3rd them in 3rd block also you have service so dont make delay's stating that feasibility & all, they said within 2-3 days you will get connection. Also executive came on 23rd Feb to collect documents & amount 300/- (transfer charge), I said if you take long time I dont want this connection, then he said in 2-3 days you will get it. Later when I called customer care they are saying every day tomorrow, this happened till - 2rd March 2014, I have escalated it, within 2 hrs I need to get call from ACT team, no 1 called, next day 3rd March I said no 1 called, he transfer the call to Naresh, he told sorry for delay I will make it for you, within 2 days you will get connection, then again after 2 days i.e today i.e 5th March, when I called they are again saying we need 4 more days, so I have requested for disconnection. Such False statement people (team ) should not have public interaction work. I need Internet for my official work, during US timing, I cannot sit in office for just because of Internet so I had taken connection, but because of these guys I am suffering a lot, I am not getting where to go & get Internet connection else sit whole night in office. I hope some will definitely take some actions against these people. Regards, Vinod.

I had applied for transfer of ACT broadband connection from Bangalore, Babusapalya to Koramangala on Feb 8th. The customer service person said i will get a call within a week after checking if the connectivity is available in my location. But I didn't receive any call and when i called them back, they said connectivity is available and i will receive a call to receive the documents. But even this time I didn't get any update for a week and I called the customer care back and got the Executive's contact number. I called him and submitted the documents and paid Rs.300 to him on Feb 19th. I didn't get any update after that and I called them back on Feb 25th and didn't get any proper response from them and promised that I will get an update the next day. But still didn't get any response. I called the customer care lot of times for this transfer and i'm really disappointed with their service. My customer id[protected].

Hi,

I had taken ACT broadband connection on 5th by paying one month advance along with the initial fee and I got the connection on 18th. No initiation was taken from the ACT team to give the connection and I followed with several teams to get the connection. Then it was hardly worked for 2 days and the connection gone.

I immediately raised a service request i.e. on 20th but till date 26th they haven't solved it..Every time I call to customer support they simply say that are following up and they will solve it.

I completely frustrated after following up with them for 7 days and wanted to share with you guys.

When I ask them to cancel my services they simply say that they want their customers to be retained and they don't want any customers to go away.

Just for one day internet connection I paid 1735 and ended up with angry and frustration. I have been following up with the customer support but no use till the movement...

I strongly say that ACT service is completely disgusting and frustrating..

Do anyone wait for an internet connection a month by paying 1735 (one month plan rate and installation charges) in advance...

I strongly discourage their services...

The so called best Internet service provider ACT in Bangalore Claims 24X7 Internet connectivity. My Internet stopped working since 23rd Feb, 2014 7.35 PM evening. When I called the customer relationship officer they assigned the case to the area manager. I have called them numerous times. every time they come with different reasons. One engineer tells it is the problem with junction box, some tell its a prob with the optical fibre. I do not understand if they are able to track the issue then why the problem persists. And this is not the first time I am facing this. every month there will be certain downtime for them. This time it just got into my nerves. They do not call on time if a call back req is raised. Escalation desk is the worst, They come with some imaginary reasons. Dealing with this people is absolutely frustrating. Yesterday They promised the issue will be resolved by 1st half today (25th Feb 2014). Now they are telling it will take till end of the day. Then why I am paying them. I have crucial project running. already I ma on a huge loss. Lost two clients. What consumer forum says about this? My customer ID with ACT: 10653110 Name: Dibyendu Kumar Paul

completely dissatisfied with beam cable 1. I had applied for beam 4 Mbps connection on 20th dec 2013 and line got activated on 22nd dec 2013 2. however the same day I faced issues with streaming and buffering was slow for a 4 Mbps line (I did not face this even in a 2 Mbps connection). 3. I had complained on 23 rd dec and got only calls from your customer care and technician saying they have resolved the issue. But that was not the case at all. 4. Again I called up customer care and registered complaints as they were getting closed without any action from beam telecom. 5. I was annoyed and also escalated by using SMS option but no response. 6. Finally I decided to disconnect the account and registered a request 7. Even this was put as connection on hold without my knowledge. I had said that I do not want the connection. Pls refund my entire deposit 3700+ Kindly take this matter at the earliest. Regards Sundeep

ACT is the worst service provider in the market. They keep on changing the tariff, payment mode(from Post Paid to Pre-paid) etc and the connection will go down most of the time. I would never ever recommend ACT to any of my friends & colleagues coz they have tarnished their image by providing the worst service to customer. I took a post paid connection a year back and the tarrif was 590 INR per month @ 2MBPS. For some reason they...

Hi, Acc No:412315 I had got ACT bb connection after paying Rs 2000 as security deposit, as told by marketing guy Mr Manjunath. Just after 3 days i started getting issues due to slow speed and connectivity...I had paid 2 months rental in advance, but just after a week I am asked to make payment again!!! What the heck?? I tried making payment online, but due to technical errors from ACT BB end, I was not able to make the payment. I have raised 22 complaint in a week asking to rectify the same...ACT bb never bothered... Since i was facing severe issue with connectivity and slow speed, i decided to cancel the connection...Again i made payment of Rs 1200 to clear all outstanding dues...But ACT bb didnt issue any acknowledgement for the same. They charged Rs 100 extra for collecting cheque...I paid and thought of getting rid of this crap!!! I made payment in Dec 2013, while i cancelled connection in Nov 2013... But ACT bb still keeps harassing me for payment... my bill has gone as high as 966, i am not sure how??? ACT bb is harassing me for payment while they refuse to pay my deposit adjusting due amount!!! ACT bb is shameful ISP provider, cheap and irritating cust care, Cheaters and liers as part of management!!! I need justice as to why no action can be initiated and why harassment cant stop!!! It should be "Useless Connectivity @ HIGH COST" ACT is total waste of money and time! ACT IS HARASSMENT AT HIGH COST.U R HARASSed @ HIGH sPEEDS!

Sir / Madam, this regarding my application for a new internet connection from the beam-fibre network.The details of which i am giving below. Name : [censored]al Pande Receipt # 65075 (as provided to me) My registered Phone # [protected] My e-mail Id :[censored]al.pande.[protected]@gmail.com Address: H.No:[protected]/A/e, near Rly.bridge, Tilak Nagar, Hyderabad(a.p)-500044 i applied for a new internet connection on 6th Jan 2014, under the condition that it must come from front side of my residence.After repeatedly confirming about the same, i completed the formalities of filling the application form with a payment of Rs.3702/- (under the plan of 4Mbps) on the same day. But the concerned technical team visited my residence, expressing their inablity to give the connection from front side of my residence.Only thing they informed me that the connection can be given from back side of my residence(which i informed them that that is not required for ).In such a case i maid a complaint to the toll-free number as well as nodal officer and asked to give me a connection as i required or return my application amount ( of Rs.3702/- ) After making the complaints repeatedly to their toll-free no.(5-6 times atleast), even e-mailed the complaint to the concerned nodal officer, i got a reply that my case was being looked into personally by nodal officer.Now roughly 23 days are over.Still no one has contacted me, nor i received any refund of my amount. hoping to get a favourable reply from you soon, Mrs.[censored]al Pande (Hyderabad)-AP

My account Num:659180, paid amount for six months. on Jan 09 2014, two weeks past no response from customer care nor nodal officer.

actions were very lazy,
Complained to nodal officer & appellate authority, but no action.

NOdal Officer /appellate authority/customer care dont have any information why this installation is getting late ...

customer care service is worst, they answer only two words apology & will solve in 24 hours, apart that they dont give any information.team members who are coming and going to my house, these team members have no communication to each other.

One person came and had set up a box in basement . he said some one will be coming for cabling.
Cabling person came after one day, he gave wiring and went off saying some other person will come for giving connection.

That some other person havent turned up .I dont know how many days this person willl take time?

Getting an positive feedback i have opted BEAMTELE for six months.

WORST, HORRIBLE BROADBAND SERVICE In THE CITY

DONT EVER RECOMMEND BEAMTELE FOR ANYONE.

BEAWARE OF BEAMTELE.

I have taken a connection for 15 MBPS. Beam is providing 6 to 7 MBPS max before the Fare Usage policy limit exceeds. Though I have given many complaints issue is not resolved. And now i have asked for a weaver because of the slow connectivity and continuous disconnection issues. More over my connection was disconnected due to payment due. Until my weaver comes for a finalization, I cannot pay the bill. Including my connectivity loss, every month am raising complaints by calling from my mobile, these charges are extra loss for me. Can someone help people like us from Beam Fiber Cheating.

Sir,
With much pain, i am mailing this to you. Please take some action regarding this matter. You are my only hope. They are not providing any details. Pleas release my connection and let them give me details.
Here is the copy of all emails i send to trai and their customer service centre.

Sir, with great pain and sadness, i am mailing this to you.
The incident is that on 24th october, i installed set top box no.[protected] with sim card no.[protected]. They charged me rs.1300/- with two months free. That day i was not at home. They took signature from my daughter and gave no receipt or anything in written form. I asked them for receipt and charges of particulars. They gave no reply.
.
On 19th november suddenly the set top box was not working. I phoned them and they asked to come to their office. I went there and they demanded rs.780/-. On further requesting they reinstalled set top box on 21st november.
.
Again on 29th november the set top box went wrong. This time some members of your staff came to my shop and abused us and again demanded money. I went to act city main office at sunday market but of no use. They asked me to go to the dealer and when we go to dealer(Svs networks achari street nellore), he never responds.
From that day we never saw tv.
.
I made several attempts but in vain. I called your customer care at[protected]. They said that they can't do anything. I don't understand why they can't do anything. Block that number which can't register a complaint or give an email id.
.
I request you to pay a compensation for stopping my connection for one month and 5 days and for the mental torture. I think you should intimate your staff to provide me my documents, bill including the expenses of my rs.1300/- and necessary documents.
.
You also ensure that at the time of payment they give me a legal and valid receipt.
I request you to take necessary action as soon as possible and ensure that your agents give us service properly
Yours sincerely,
Prithviraj jain.

After that i got a call from [protected] on 10/01/2014 at 17:28pm. Call summary 3 min 55 sec.
They said they cant do anything.
I called 7 times on that number

They said they can't do anything.
Block that number which can't do anything. It's useless to keep that number which cant even book a complaint.
So, i thought to call head office number [protected] 6 times in vain.

Every time i did not talk to any of your staff. In the first and third case, i was kept on hold for more than 15 minutes.Only mobile balance is wasted.
.
Is this your standard of service? This is not at all good.
.
So i went to act city head office at sunday market. In room no.202 mr.Satish talked without respect.Again same story. I cant do anything.
.
It means if any of your customer have a problem and he wants to register a complaint, the thing your staff say i cant do anything.
.
I am fed up sending mails to you.
This is the last mail i am sending. Release my connection before today evening or else i have to proceed in a legal way.
Lastly provide me following
1) my connection
2) details of 1300
3) form xerox
4) agreement copy
5) the reason o[censored]n installing my connection
6) why are they asking 780/-

I have an issue with FUP (Fair usage policy). The FUP has not been reset for this Jan 2014. I have raised many complaints till date by calling up there customer service team[protected], they say they will reset the FUP as soon as possible and it’s been more than 10days by now. My plan is 15MBPs speed and as per this plan I need have 15MBPs of speed every month up till 50GB FUP. As per FUP limit if I cross 50GB o[censored]sage then my internet speed will be 2MBPs. And this FUP will reset on every 1st of the month but, this didn’t happen for me for this month Jan 2014. I have wrote to the nodal officer for Beam on daily basis as the issue is not been rectified by their team. And to my surprise I receive same response form the nodal office as below for all the mails that I have sent but nothing has happened in rectifying my complaint.

RESPONSE MAIL FROM NODAL OFFICER TEAM:

“Dear Subscriber,

Your request has been assigned to the concerned team to facilitate immediate action.

We have directed our team to contact you and set up a convenient time when they could visit your place and assist you, Kindly bear with us until such time.

The ticket generated as an acknowledgement of your mail is now being closed, since the permanent ticket number has been created for immediate action by the concerned branch team.



Thanks and Regards
Nodal Officer”

And each mail I receive from the Nodal Officer team as a different ticket number. And to my surprise the issue has not been sorted out till date and I have informed the billing team via mail ([protected]@beamtele.com) that I have subscribed my plan for 15MBPs and I have received only 2MBPs of speed which I have not subscribed so I will not be paying any thing till date the issue is sorted out, but still I have received a bill for this month for 15MBPs speed which they didn’t give me till date. Above all this my internet is been completely disconnected on daily basis at least for 2 to 3hrs in 2 intervals.

I have made so many follow ups with customer service team and as well as the Nodal Officer team, but nothing has happened, my issue still remains the same as it was. I feel that the Nodal officer Mr Wilson.CH is sleeping instead of doing his responsibility when a complaint has been raised and brought to his notice. The reason I had to mention this statement is I have lost a lot of time by following up this people and wasted my money by making calls to them which fetched my nothing but only loss in all aspect for which I will not be compensated from by source.

Thank

Hi, We just applied new broadband connection at kasthuri nagar, banglore on dec 9th 2013 and we fully paid 6715 INR for first 6 months. Still we didnt get the connection. We made several calls to the marketing guy and the ACT broadband customer care but no improvement from the their end. They said we will give connection last tuesday without fail but today Thursday but the guy not even picking our calls. We really disappointed with the act broadband service. If they didnt process today we will go with other broadband solutions.

Hi All, This complaint is on the "Beam Telecom Services" which provides the Internet Services in Hyderabad. I am raising this complaint because of the irresponsible behavior of Beam Tele in addressing my concerns. I have requested them to shift my connection from one location to another location with in the same city. When I called them for the first time, they said that it will take 24hrs of time to shift the connection but that was not done from their end. On the second day when I called them they said they will take my issue as a priority and will resolve the issue with in 24hrs! It's been repeating like this for the past 8 days and my request is not yet addressed! I had escalated this to their technical department and I haven't heard from them too. Beam tele is impacting me in a big way as I rely on internet for my work and this delay is hampering my progress at work. I would like to move this concern to the consumer forum in case it is not addressed this week.

Hi, I have recently activated the internet plan from Beam telecom with the WIFI connection. However, i got the lane wire connection and WIFI set top box next day of my payment. But unfortunately, i did not got the WIFI connection activated. I have called to the Beam customer care and nearby executive several times for the resolution. However, i did not receive any proper response from them. Could you please help me to sort out this issue ASAP. Thanks in advance.

My ACT username : 10598129 My Oct month usage : 54.18 GB (See attached image) My FUP limit : 60 GB (ACT Indulge plan) My speed was reduced to 512 Kbps on Oct 27th even before reaching FUP Limit. I called customer care several times. They said the usage details are ''delayed" by 24 Hrs and I may have reached the FUP Limit at server (Pathetic and I accepted because I don't have proofs) I've suffered with Low Speeds. from 25 Mbps to 512 Kbps even before reaching FUP Limit??? Customer care asked me to send email with attaching screenshot to [protected]@acttv.in and they are not responding!!
