Fraud and cheating!
Complaint Rating:  100 % with 27 votes
I signed up for Comcast in early February through comcastoffer.com because they were offering a $150 Amazon gift card. I regret signing up with Buytelco for Comcast offer. I wish I had simply signed up for Comcast by calling them directly. Or better, I should have signed up for Comcast through Amazon.com, at least people are getting their $100 gift card from Amazon. Here is the Comcast deal that Amazon offers with $100 Amazon gift card: http://amazon.com/gp/browse.html?node=241126011&carrierID=comcastamazon

Buytelco customer service is notoriously the worst I've experienced. I had to even give out my credit card number so they can send out a technician and I felt unsafe for giving out my credit card # but I thought to myself, for $150 amazon gift card, it's probably worth it.

Well, I mailed my rebate form with proper documentation in early February to Buytelco and it's late August right now. I have not received the $150 Amazon gift card.

I have tried phone support, chat, and email support. NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE is willing to help me out. I've could of made better choice by directly signing up from Comcast and avoid over six hours of hassle. I have wasted so much time to get help from Buytelco that I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE UP

It's now my personal hobby to expose Buytelco and their shady practices to consumers. Currently, I'm planning on writing a complaint ready to the Better Business Bureau and to Comcast Headquater in PA. I'll soon start blogging about buytelco / comcastoffer.com and post on many other web sites and forums as possible to expose Buytelco. I'll stop when I receive the promised $150 Amazon gift card from them.

This is the email that I had received when I signed up on comcastoffer.com:

"Thank you for ordering High Speed Broadband Internet service through BuyTelco. You can expect to be enjoying a faster, more convenient online experience soon.

You should have heard from COMCAST to schedule your High Speed Internet order. In the event no contact has been made, please call at 18772203549 and give them confirmation # [Removed for security reasons] to schedule your order. Your secondary confirmation # is [Removed for security reasons]."

Contact me if you have any questions or have been also scammed by Buytelco: wspatel@yahoo.com.

I agree with the author of this complaint.

I signed up through the link: http://amazon.com/gp/browse.html?node=241126011&carrierID=comcastamazon

for $100 amazon gift. I just found out that the dealer on Amazon is the same Buytelco company that runs the web site comcastoffer.com

Like the author suggested, stay away from this company. Save yourself trouble and just directly sign up for Comcast at comcast.com

Hello,

I am posting again to say my issue was handled very professionally, though it took time, it was solve eventually and I received my gift card. The company Buytelco went above and beyond to satisfy me for all the trouble i had gone through. I'd recommend it to anyone that is looking forward to buying Comcast, use their web site to sign up as you WILL get the amazon gift card.

When I placed Comcast High Speed Internet order with Buytelco , I got below confirmation e-mail from BUYTELCO.COM or ACELLER.COM saying promotion of $125.00 Amazon gift card due to signing up for Comcast through them .
Although I connected them several times about gift card during the last 4 months, I have not received the promised gift card from BUYTELCO. I will definitely let Comcast know how they do business with Comcast customers.
I wish I had signed up Comcast through www.dell.com or www.amazon.com.
Regards,

Well, What's up with the $79.95 installation charge Acceller wants to take out my account within 14 days after notifying me by mail. Seems this company is having some bad issues undoubtly finacial, they are out right stealing , and not denying any of it. They just avoid your calls to rectify any of their rebates or to justify the charges they want to charge when they got paid $289.00 August 1, 2007 from my debit card, well to inform Acceller, I no longer have that number to charge my account, I am trying to notify them
(Acceller) of the canceled card, how long will it take them to return my calls if they can't get thier Money??? Now What?
