CenturyLink take your business elsewhere

Qwest Communications allowed our business telephone account to be switched to another carrier without my knowledge. This occurred in May 2001.

When I found out what they had done, they switched my account back and promised any charges on the old account would be credited due to the inconvenience. May 2006, five years later I get a bill from Qwest. Can you believe that! When I told them the statuate of limitations had expired, they threatened to disconnect my service. I spoke with Mary at the executive office. She was rude and obnoxious. She refused to return my calls, refused to send documentation about the bill and lied to other co-workers and the corporation commission. Let me remind you, this is the Executive Office at Qwest! They hide behind voice mail so they dont have to deal with there customers.
So 5 years later, Qwest gets away with extorting money from me. There way of solving a problem is not returning telephone calls, threats, intimidation, and being rude. I hope the $196.00 is worth it to Qwest as I have a very long memory!

So BEWARE...DO NOT ALLOW QWEST TO SCREW YOU. TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE.

I tried to set up Internet service, but it failed… I mailed back the tower and they sent me a bill as if I use the Internet… The service was never used. They refuse to refund. What a bogis company a lot of flaws in their processes.

I returned my modem with tracking. It was received at Century Link months ago. Still no refund received by this company. Can’t even call in and get customer service to understand or sometimes get them on the phone. One more week before I file an FTC complaint.

Century Link was down for 24 hours from 3/24/23 uintil 3/25/23 in my area which is 1170 n. Opal Dr., Prescott, AZ 86303. I believe cenuiry Link should issue a credit to my accout for the outage. Especially since Century Link has increased my monthly charge by 20%! Please inform me when the credit will be posted to my account.

I currently have a telephone outage [protected]) which is causing severe problems as my credit card processing relies on the phone service. Paying extra for a business line, which is frequently out, and the long wait for repair service is not accectable. I need immediatly assistance.

It is July 1st and we have been attempting to have internet installed since early March! Horrible communication, no return calls, technicians haven't shown up, unable to speak to actual humans, and redirected to a new person and having to restate the issue every time. Rural and our only option is Century Link

CenturyLink had an internet outage for four days. Each day they told me it would be back on by the evening. On the fourth day I gave up and canceled. They only refunded the four days service was out. They told me I would receive a full refund.
Most inconsiderate poor customer service I've ever dealt with. Abusing customers with no accountability.

Why does my Centurylink bill show $83.90 for packages (internet and phone) and $13.98 for broadband and $20.70 for voice? That's double billing and seriously has me irritated beyond comprehension.

they set up services you don't ask for, when you get a bill 3 months later, they wont credit you and charge an early term fee..
FRAUD is Century link.
