@HughesNet Timing is a little suspicious for the slow down and internet outages this month. Still only myself and my husband using your service and all of a sudden we are going over data but losing it altogether! It all made sense since you are pushing an upgrade!

@HughesNet You’re a fraudulent scam of an ISP, you do nothing but lie and swindle people. The sheer mockery that you’re allowed to operate in America just shows the corruption and down right low standards @BBB @FTC @FCC have and how meaningless they are. Good job at being the worst.

@HughesNet I had to call you guys every single day for over 5 months for you to admit there was a problem on YOUR end and there was no ETA on fixing it. I have officially gone OVER HALF A YEAR WITH NO INTERNET AND YOU STILL MAKE ME PAY

@MitchLandrieu46 @GayleManchin @ARCgov -cant call 911
- things with auto update and become corrupted because it’s so slow and destroy itself
-Hughesnet just tells me and everyone else to pay $30 for 10gb if you can’t do anything
It’s been a miserable and dangerous 4 years moving down here and If it wasn’t for this

@HughesNet just to be extra sure and vocal about this, y'all installed the satellite on my roof, I cancel service and you want me to climb up there and risk getting hurt to take it down or charge me? 🤔 Smells like I'm about to be a rich man.

Look at the BBB complaints ( there’s so many they only publish 1 in 20) and take a scroll down the things I repost on my page. Hughesnet is a fraudulent company that preys on people

@_rchase_ @jockpurtle @awilkinson Here in rural Calaveras County, ViaSat and HughesNet are horribly slow even with highest priced plan. Other issue is they hold you hostage with contract regardless of customer satisfaction. Reserved Starlink dish and hope to get it soon so I can work remotely to pay the bills!

@jockpurtle @awilkinson I’ve been told where I am, rural Calaveras County, that HughesNet and via sat are horribly slow. Other problem is that unlike cable which has pretty much eliminated contracts, these satellite folks still hold you hostage for two years, regardless of satisfaction

@bestcabletvusa Starlink has a 1TB data cap, you’d have to pay over $3000 to Hughesnet to have the same data cap and once again, speeds aren’t guaranteed so you can have legitimately ZERO MBS and you’ll still have to pay and they won’t ‘fix’ anything because nothing is broken, you just pay more
