I need help writing an ISP Complaint

[kassios]

The past 6 months i've been having connection problems with my Isp , each and

everyday my service would go offline and thus losing a lot if not most of my

customers!!

im really seriously considering shutting

down the business but im really trying my best not too because i will have to sell

my apartment and if i do that i will have to live with my mother which is not the best

thing when your close to 30

i know that all of you have been thru Isp problems either home or

business so if anyone has any tips on how to write a complaint about the Isp that

would be appreciated.

how are you losing your customers? what has your ISP to do with your customers?

ahh, if youre actually paying for business and its going down often enough to affect your business, surely you have some way to get reimbursed for your fees.. business lines should be guaranteed to some extent.. i know ours are pretty much guaranteed 99% uptime

Re: I need help writing an ISP Complaint

if you're having these issues, the time your bill is due is irrelevant if they are not providing the services they promise

Nice paint job on the place...maybe there is a career in that for you
Just kidding.
You should certainly write a complaint to them. I am gonna write one to my ISP and then I am gonna see what they say and if they don't offer a solution I am gonna switch.

My problems are kinda simmilar I have 8mb connection (or better to say that I am supposed to have an 8mb connection) in reality however I get around 5mb. I know there is loss of speed due to the cables and what not but I was guaranteed in the contract that I would be getting a minimum speed of 6.2 mb in addition to this my ISP has really annoying habits e.g. on Saturday and Friday the connection always cuts of around 4-5 in the morning cuz they know everyone leaves their PC downloading shit all night so they fuck you over. Not to mention that my connection gets really screwed up when I attempt to download shit using the full speed i.e. on multiple downloads.

I pay around 25 £ a month for that with free phone calls to land lines but I alway get a bill for abou 150£ due to international phone calls so it in their intrest to keep me really. For that kinda of money I could get virgin's optical internet with 25 mb per second with no speed loss.

Anyway I kinda got side tracked in my rant there, sorry...hehe
Just write them a letter explaining your situation man. Tell them you run a bussiness that relly's heavily on the service they provide and that when they don't deliver you loose money. Its as simple as that and I don't know where you live but if your in the US say that they have already caused a loss of earnings to your bussiness and that your lawyer has suggested you take them to court that should keep them on their toes!

Re: I need help writing an ISP Complaint

Do you have some sort of official body that oversees these companies. ?? Communication ombudsman perhaps. ??
But you do need to get in contact with them asap and do as others have said. Tell them the truth. If you have a contract for then to provide you with a service to enables you to run your business surely they are breaking that contract. The in important thing is to deal with them politely but firmly. You really don't want to piss off people who can kill our business, but you need to let them know you are aware of your rights and legal options. Unfortunately I don't know what they are. Don't know your laws.

Good Luck!!
