We moved 9 months ago. Called and cancelled our service with LocalNet (ISP) last June. Asking them specifically if we needed to do anything else. Nope...we were set! (They did NOT request a letter at this time)

Fast forward to yesterday. We get a bill claiming we owed the for January and February of... this year. (6 Months after we had moved to a different address.) Their story was that they had put our account on HOLD for six months...(why would we put it on HOLD when we were moving out of the house) so that was not true. When we told them this then they said..."Oh, then we didn't get a cancellation letter." They did not ask for it when we cancelled and why would they put it on hold if we had not contacted them to cancel in the first place.

Now they send a letter of demand... threatening to take us to court if we do not pay $37. Bully tactics and I'm mad. It's not a lot of money but it is fraudulant business practice and it turns my stomach. They figure the little guy will just pay and be done with it.

Please research LocalNet and watch your credit card statements.

I recently called local net to cancel my services, first they said ok and said that it was cancelled. then they took the money out of my checking that next month. we called again and they said that we had to either fax or send a letter so we faxed them the letter on april 22nd we were set they said that it would be cancelled well it wasn't they took more money out of my account on may 16th so we called them again and they said that they didn't recieve the letter that we faxed. so now we will email them and if that doesn't work we will call an attourney.

I think this company is a big fraud and profiting off of customers who may not know about all the computer parts.

Localnet is the worst internet service i have ever encountered. In May i called local net because i thought the price was good. I told the customer service person i was still with at&t dsl. I asked if i could switch over to dial up and then cancel at&t. I was assured this was possible. I was switched over to tech support and they could not get me connected. Tech support told me to cancel at&t first then call back. This little switch was a big hassle so I called them back right a way to cancel and was told i would have to send email or fax to billing . I emailed billing to cancel the service on May 14th and 20th. They took my 24.95 out of my acccount on May 15. I told them that i never recieved the service or used the service and wanted my money refunded they basically said that the problem was not theirs and that my computer was at fault. I told them that they were getting free money for services that could not be used by customers. I'm going to see who i can contact to get my money back. I am also going to contact an attorney general for guidance on this company anybody else interested??????I got an address if anybody wants it . Manager: Ryan Hardy
170 Lawrencebell Dr. Williamsville, New York stay tuned for more info or contact me if you have any ideas about how we can get refunds, because this business needs to go out of business.
