Lingo made unauthorized changes to our account, including canceling active phone numbers without permission. A basic request to forward a phone line took two months, and their cancellation process has been intentionally difficult. We are still waiting on a final invoice. We didn't realize how badly we were being scammed until our new provider started looking into everything. We had phone numbers on our account that belonged to other businesses, and we were supposedly renting phones from Lingo. Now they are claiming we own them. No one at Lingo seems to know what they are doing, and getting anything resolved is nearly impossible. I work with many phone vendors and have never had this many issues. This is not how a phone company should operate. Our new phone company is more affordable and has provided fantastic service. I regret letting this drag on for as long as it did.
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.
Please do not waste your time! What should have been a simple number porting and forward turned into a total nightmare. We started an order in April, in July, we had to fight with them to cancel because they never delivered any service. After the first 4wks, _WE_ finally had to ask for an update, because there is zero communication. Days later they finally tell us they can't even find the paperwork, so, we forwarded them the original email. We started the wait all over again from square one. Another 4wks of radio silence. We chase them again, more delayed response, more excuses. Reach out to the sales rep and he tells me the order is actually completed - which It was obviously not. Even their own online account portal showed no change. Confronted the sales and account reps again, 36hrs later and not a peep. All of these many weeks we faithfully paid the bill. They finally admit, they can see now (months later) why the order got lost - because they entered it wrong into Salesforce - TWICE. After the terrible communication, no action and 4 months of no service, I request them to just cancel the order and refund us. Silence again. We finally follow-up with them - just to get the cancellation completed and they try stalling on that, and instead offer us a 3mth credit, if we will not cancel. So, final icing on the cake - they couldn't even do the right thing and refund for the months of services they never delivered. The pièce de résistance, now they are trying to get my reviews blocked, because they would rather spend more time trying to covering up their bad service, rather than fix it.
SNS Professional scammed me by sending a bogus virus message with a number attached to it. They won’t refund my money so I contacted Avoxi for assistance as the number they used is provided by them. Avoxi straight-up refused to help me. Seems like they are covering up a Scam.
