I'd like to start by saying that no one likes spam emails, or purchasing things online that may put you on the list for those spam emails and mailings. So I found a way to avoid that. Even with my credit cards purchases, I'm able to use an alias name that keeps my actual name private unless I wish to use it. My online purchases, continue to use that name, but unfortunately I used that name to sign up for my home phone service with ITP. I've asked for my refund I've already paid out for their hardware which is $100. They have sent me a refund check using my alias. But even though my bank is familiar with that name, and I have many transactions under that name, they deny my plea to deposit that check my account. So after many many many calls to ITP, they understand that I didn't use my real name signing up, so they denied re-issuing a new check in my actual name. So to negotiate with them I said, "well you can always cancel check in the alias name and reissue it in my actual name". But they won't meet me halfway on this. I said well if you won't send me the refund check after canceling the one you sent me already in my Internet name, just send me back the Modem. It seems to be too reasonable for them. No matter how many times I call. So that's why I'm on this platform to make some kind of an impact against this cheap company. Cheap in so many ways can make an impact. Little under a year already, I've been paying for that cheap phone service from ITP. I didn't expect much from this cheap service, but just little things like voicemail, caller ID, call waiting and being able to press, the flash button to transfer to my next phone line and see who's calling. All of those features were deficient in what you could expect in a cheap phone company. After many calls I moved my complaints to this forum. So I asked them to refund the money I paid or my 'paid in full modem instead, that's fair! They are not! That's the Truth...

You would assume what you read in the advertisement would be accurate and the pricing would be what the tell you it will be. What they don't say is that you cant get a hold of them, and they will not call back, and most of all there is no way to cancel without talking to someone - which is imposible because no one calls back or answers the phone. Short of stealing or robbery - which is illegal - this company is not the one you want to start a business relationship with. Listen to me ==== Realize this process is for you to see, hear and be witness to the lack of integrity and the natural way the ITP VOIP firm will in fact take your money, steal from your account and not even respond to your calls. But wait here is the reason why you can't do business with this firm: THE ARE NOT LISTED ANYWHERE. They are based in New York with no address, no way to speak to a supervisor, no one calls back. You can't cancel unless you close your bank account. And then they want to you send back the equipment you paid for and they will charge your credit card if you don't send it back by a certain date. These are not serious folks my friend. They kept on charging me for 5 months until I got a hold of a supervisor after Verizon requested with me on the phone to cancel the account. Five months later ITP was still charging my account. When I finally got a hold of a live person they never refunded my account. DON'T USE ITP VoIP for any type of business they are not a real company. Don't take a chance. There is no positive experience on the internet about this firm that is real. NONE. Don't use ITP Vo IP

Horrible - Dishonest - Useless Customer Service - Lie about contracts They lie right off the bat when they call you. At least the guy who calls to hook you speaks your language. After that it's accents you can't translate from call centers with a million other voices in the background. I agreed to their services in 2018 with free first month and 6th month. That was a lie. Never happened! Tried the customer service on that. Of course they say they don't know anything about that. Customer service person I can't understand. Ask if there is someone who can speak better English and am told "NO" Can't email me. Doesn't care. Over the years, they have added about $25 to my bill. Bogus taxes - unexplained "Other Charges" Got a letter a few months ago with a bill. The bill was for my gradually ever-increasing bill amount, the letter says I'm being charged another $20+ for some other taxes they had failed to include on my bill for the last year. Paid that. Couldn't bring myself to suffer through a useless episode with overseas customer service agent. Finally sick of them, switched the line over to a cell with Verizon. Lingo continuing to bill me for a service they have not been providing for two months. Paid it once. The second time I call Customer service. Hung up on. Call again 15 minutes on hold - another guy I can't understand. What I am able to get from him: Verizon didn't notify them (A lie, Verizon can't use the number until Lingo releases it - I waited several days for that to happen) I am suppose to still owe the bills + more to come which will include a $200 Early termination charge!!! Say I am under some other contract that they can't provide me with. Just simply a lying scamming company . By the way, they were called Birch Communications when I signed up. They changed to Lingo somewhere along the line. Not BBB accredited - No shock there I'll update this when I get my next statement.

I signed up for my elderly mom, who cannot use a cell phone. We had been happy with the service, and the price was better than AT&T, plus included 1500 minutes of long distance, which AT&T does not unless you pay a lot extra. Recently my mom's phone was out of order, and we had to wait a week to get it back working. (It was a line/cable problem.) In addition to a terribly long wait, customer service was absolutely horrible! Excessive wait times, incorrect trouble tickets, ZERO customer service on weekends. Today I am calling them about a billing question, and so far have been on hold for 1 hour and 45 minutes SO FAR. I don't want to call back and start all over, so I've got the phone on speaker and on the charger.
