  19. I have tried to get them to fix my Internet since the first few weeks I got it. I think dial up would be faster. The only thing worse than their internet is their service. One of the worst companies I have ever delt with. I do not think I have ever actually spoken to someone in the US or that spoke clear English.

  20. I returned my hughesnet radio, modem and cords in one package… Now they are saying I only sent them the modem and I owe them over 200 dollars, they are not stealing 200 dollars from my pocket… Good luck with your scams to make a quick …

  40. Same thing in Mexico, they promise 25 Mbs to you, but you can’t even watch comfortably a YTube video without it stopping. Unfortunately they don’t do anything to fix it and want to force you to keep paying one year.

  41. Terrible customer service, I cancelled service due to slow internet speed. I was not under a contract, but had been with HughesNet 2 years. I waited on line to cancel service for 1hr only to get told that I needed to climb up on my roof to uninstall a piece. 5 days later I get a bill for unreturned equipment

  42. Terrible. There is a reason they ha e contracts. Because they know you will cancel. So they want to get all the $$ they can from you. Realy bad service

  43. False Advertising, Service provided is not the service received. Constant throttling. Cannot maintain business internet service to actively manage my business needs. Cannot make emergency services calls without calls failing, dropping or being fully garbled. 10/10 would never recommend!

  44. One of the worst customer service experiences of my entire life. They don’t listen. They don’t care. I can’t speak to anyone in the United States. Totally screwed me over when my equipment failed, but they didn’t care. Showed zero empathy. …

  47. Worst internet in the world. I signed up with the promise of 25meg speeds. On multiple speed tests I was only getting 1-2 meg speeds. When I called to cancel they told me on there end they showed I was getting 30 megs of speed. Such bs …

  48. This is a truly awful product. Very slow speeds at a high price. Horrible tech support who tells you that there is no problem. I cannot say how exceeding dissatisfied I am with Hughes and how much I wish I was never involved with them.

  49. They sweet talk you on the phone but when it comes to service, it is another thing. Had an 8am-11am appointment to install a dish at my home, they arrived at 3:45 pm and close to dusk, rushed the dish install (I am not happy with the …

  50. Don’t buy into the commercials, this internet is a joke. They fail to tell you the latency is crazy high, think of old school dial up but worse. They are way overpriced for the horrible service you get and the tech service is even worse. You are better off with out service, it will save you a ton of heartache.

  51. This was the worst experience I had ever had dealing with an internet provider. They will promise you the moon and stars but once you are connected they are a
    very unreliable network. You will realize that nothing works the way it should. …
