Fios new DVR poor experience

[rickla]

So I thought I'd renew my expired contract and get a newer dvr server and modem.

I did renew for 2 years, and got new gateway. Today it's not 124 showing but 130. So something happened.

But that's the smaller issue. I ordered the quantum box and service, the fee was waived online.

My order showed as installation delayed please call. Installation for a mailed box? (yes it showed they would ship out a box plus return box.)

So I call. Oy, outsourcing. I thought I got it all set and the rep says the tech will drop the box off. Tech? I could not budge here, no reason why they could not just mail a box. I told her nobody would be home but she said the tech would call and we would figure it out.

Well I come online and my next bill is showing as $400! Onsite tech fee, and it all looks like a new install.

Call the 800 number to cancel. Guess what, offices closed? I just called.

This **bleep** just makes me want to leave.
