Nuera Telecom is a complete ripoff.
I was totally lied into the service.
At first i was told no monthly fee and $0.05 calling per minute to Pakistan and India.
Guess what?
I tried calling Pakistan and India for 4 days and never got thru.
And i found out i was charged $34.95 on a monthly basis.
Then i called Nuera Telecom customer service line and all of the sudden THEY DONT SPEAK ENGLISH!
So i tried to call the sales rep that i bought the item for and all of the sudden NO ONE HAS HEARD OF HIM!

Thankfully i was able to call my credit card company and i told them about the fraud and they took care of it.

Complete ripoff artists.

They lied to me when selling me their services and then their staff member, Shahid abused me over the phone and threatened my wife too. He said that he had my credit card and is going to charge big amounts to punish me. I cancelled the card and cautioning everyone to stay away from this company.

HI,
The company agent charges you $38 as a deposite. and than they will consider that as an activation fee. Totally lie company and fraud company. They will not send you any conformation email about service they charge you wrong and lies.
I already request and send details about this to Mr.Obama and also legal department to close this company.
But be aware all custome don't take this service.

This company made me to pay $38.95 as deposit to make international calls to Ghana in west Africa at cheaper rates. After I read about their hidden charges, I called and canceled the service the following. It is almost one month now they have still not refunded my deposit yet. Folks beware of this company's gimmicks.

Beware of Nuera Telecom products. They are cheaters and dishonest people. Their agent will tell you fancy stories to get a business. They told me that money will be refunded to my credit card whenever I want to close my account. At the end, they gave me $50 calling card and refuse to transfer money to credit card.

Never recommend to do business with thieves

NuEra is completely a Fraud company. I have my $39 deposit with them. Now they are threatening me every now and then by calling in odd times and forcing me to renew my subscription. Otherwise they will keep charging my credit card every month. Can somebody advice me how and where to complain about this cheating company?

Hello Everyone. Reposting the information below, as it looks like these jerks are still practicing their scam. Look, as consumers, you have very little individual power against a corporation, and they count on that. You need to all put the US Govt. on these guys' case:

You can go to: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm
and answer 3 really quick questions to get to the form, or just access the form directly here: https://esupport.fcc.gov/ccmsforms/form1088.action?form_type=1088B
The form asks for a few specific dates when you received the calls. And the form also asks if your number has been registered in the don not call registry here: https://www.donotcall.gov/
Please take about 15/20 minutes to complete the forms. The scammers rely on people's reluctance to fill out forms.
I had a similar situation as most of the posts here. These guys call from some blocked number and when pressed, give [protected] as their number. After I asked them to stop calling me and threatened to report them for not honoring "do not call" requests, I got 2 calls in quick succession from 2 San Diego numbers: [protected] and [protected]. The first caller just made some "woo hoo" sounds in a female voice and hung up. For the second call, I stayed quiet after answering and could hear female voices in the background in conversations that sounded like could be telemarketing calls

A pesar que reconocieron que el departamento de venta me dio una información incorrecta (para poder vender). Que me tocó esperar que verificaran que la grabación efectivamente yo no mentía casi dos semanas. Que la primera persona que me atendió me dijo que en caso de ser cierto mis declaraciones podrian rembolsarme todo el dinero. A quien le dije que la caja del aparato la habia ya botado a la basura y me dijo que no había problema. Ya como no me pueden dar el servicio, saben que me voy, saben que no tengo la caja, usan como excusa lo de la caja para no reembolsarme el dinero, 123.99 Poca seriedad, servicio al cliente bastante malo. Simplemente, NO USAR ESTE SERVICIO DEL TODO! o estaras frustrado como yo y pederas el tiempo en tratar de hacerte oir para que estos sinverguenza no vayan por alli engañando a la gente.

Be aware of this Farud Company!
This company first asks you the current amount you pay for the service, and then offers you 1cent less, but by the time you spend 45 minutes to go through confirmation, finance, .. the price will be higher than what you pay + 39 cents connection fee for each call + 3$ one time fee +... people whom you talk to have either very strong Indian or Spanish accents (no offence) and you do not understand what you get at the end. After the first invoice you will understand how much you F*cked up!

I found this when I was searching for a physical address to file a direct complaint against them. I have had nothing but trouble with them and they have not refunded our money of $38.82 and it does not look like they will. I also found out that they are not registered with the S. Florida BBB, but have had almost 150 complaints about them as well. The FCC has also filed a "Failure notice of Forfiture" against their Latin division where they are forfieting over $20, 000.

Good Luck

Hi guys, I used to work for them years back. This is an international company and I was working at the head office in Quebec. They used to do the cheating with hidden cost, activation fee, connection fee, wrong billings, charging extra and what not. I was a sales rep there but it was never my fault coz all I had to do is following a script to convince the customers. They used to pay base hourly salary and no commission, so no reason for me to tell any lies to make the sale. After the customers got ripped off, they used to call me to complain and to fix the problems. There was nothing I or my supervisor could do to help them out other that transferring the call to the billing department. We knew for sure nothing would be done to solve those issues. Now the customers started to threat me saying how they will take legal steps against me. When I let my supervisor know about it, he used to laugh out loud saying we have 7 full time lawyeers working there to protect the company. All the hidden costs and fees that we (the employees) never knew or mentioned in our sales calls was used to be in writing in the agreements. But the customers either never received those agreements or never read those well. Some of them got a chance to read those but it was already too late to cancel the service or to get any money back. I myself paid $120 for the calls I never made or I heard nothing from the other side. No legal steps can do anything against these frauds. We just need to do some research before we sigh up for anything new, NOT AFTER!

If you want your refund of your deposit you need to ask for supervisor Carlos Salazar who works in the Customer Service department in the morning shift wich it means that you have to call with eastern time only in the mornings this guy apparently works from 6am until 2pm and they will only give you the money if you said that you will sue them, apparently he is the guy who is in charge to decide if you get your money back or not.

I wish I had gone through all the comments before giving them my personal and financial particulars, now I am also the victim of this nueratel. Off course It is fake, and all lies.

I realized second day, when they again asked me about the credit card detail to give me the pin # for my cell phone.

I immediately checked the bank statement on the internet, but these [censor]s had already taken $38.95 from my accounts.

after getting dozens of call only in one day I request them to cancel my service but they said whatever calls you have made through them, you have to pay and your account will never be cancelled.

Now I have refused to pay further amount as I know they cannot take any action, and please be assured that your credit history will not be effected due to these indian scammers.

Nuera telecom is a Fraud, If Indian guy call everyone by giving wrong information why the Nuera Telecom keep giving business to those people. They know quite well that atleast they got the security deposit from many subscriber by providing fake information. Never give them Credit card information . I asked them to close my account the lady told me she can't do that becasue I have to pay in Full first. That means if I pay the Bill in Full they could close the Account but I am sure they are not going to give deposit back. So this is a veryn good business by threating people. I asked the lady if am not gonna pay the bill so she keep continue my account 4 ever. She told me Yes. I asked that is so Funny. She replied me their Software is just like that I have to pay first full payment then the account will close. What a Joke, these guys are so shameless in cheating.

Guys, if you don't like Nuera, so go and sign up with Pulse Telecom. For $24.95/month you can make unlimited phone calls to India, Canada and USA (land line and cellular) and also to 16 European countries. All the calls are included in this plan.
I'm with Pulse Telecom and I'm satisfied.

Same thing happened with me. I donot remember the name of the guy who called me first time, he convinced me to take the service is reasonably low rates plus 30% discount every month but did not tell me about the security deposit. When I refused to pay the deposit by credit card, he stated talking in rude way and started yelling at me. Hence I refused to take their service but they kept calling at my home to convince my wife. Finally a femal rep from nuera convinced my wife and she gave her credit card to her and took the service. They charged $38.98 as security deposit.
Only for the first few days, their service was reasonable and voice was clear but it started deteriorating and now a days when we call to pakistan, the voice quality is very poor even not able to understand each other.

We called to complain, and a rep at nuera named lisbet very politely gave me a different 888 number to use and did not tell me that it will cost extra to use this number. I tried it and voice is clear but now I have to pay extra $0.01/m.

Till this time I have not received any agreement or invoice to verify that what we were promised is actually true, hence I called them to give me access to online billing which they did. When I checked my first invoice online I was totaly amazed to see the rates and hidden charges.
1. They promised 4.9C/M for Pakistan no matter if its land line or cell phone but they charged 6.9C/M for each call. For long distance within canada they are charging 4C /M while you can get much cheaper rates..

2. They are charging as hidden costs which no one told us are:
Carrier Cost Charge 0.28
Network Access Charge 0.29
Internacional Access Charge 0.59

When I saw this, I called again yesterday on May 14 and talked with Carl. I asked him why you are not charging the agreed rate of 4.9/m, he said you are calling to cell phones while I have seeing in my invoice that regardless of cell phone or land line, hey are charging 6.9c/m and they donot want to correct it.

I asked him to disconnect my service as i donot want to do business with a company who donot keep its words and he refused to cancel it and asked me to pay the bill and wait for the next bill. I asked him to deduct bill from my deposit and refund me the rest but he refused. I asked him to de-activate my line and I can clear the bill right away and you disconnect the line, he refused to do that either. I asked to let me talk with supervisor and he refused by saying he is not in and call tomorrow morning for that.

Next day, I called again and talked with Carola, she was so rude that she donot want to listen and told me that last night rep already explained me that I have to pay the bills first then wait for next bill and pay it then they will close my account.
Finally I have paid my bill and asked her that I want to talk with supervisor but she again refused by saying that supervisor is not in yet. Their office is in Quebec and operating in EST while i am in MST, I called around 8am which means its 10am in Quebec and still their supervisor is not in.

What a crapy company who is playing with people.

I would strongly recommend to avoid this company as they grab your security deposit and then keep pressing you.

Here are few of their terms which they did not tell when they sell you their plan
3. Read their agreedment which no body informed us at the time of connection and it has lots of things that no one will agree upon examples are:
3.1 If termination is required, all services will be deactivated and a termination fee of $15 or 10% of the total account balance, whichever is greater, will be added to the balance due. An administrative fee of $50 will be charged to an account that is past due and placed into collections.
3.2 A late fee of $9.50 will be added if payment does not arrive by the due date.
3.3 In the event that any payment is returned, disputed, or unpaid by the customer's bank for insufficient funds, or otherwise, Customer will pay to NuEra up to $40.00 plus the cost of the processing fee from the bank.
3.4 Telecom Relay Charge of up to 7.5% of the monthly usage; Telecom & Administration Fee up to 12.5% of the monthly usage; a Service Fee of up to 8.1% of the minutes used; a Communications Fee of up to 7.2% of each minute used of NuEra’s service; and a long call charge of up to 7.8% for every call longer than three minutes. All of the aforementioned fees and charges are also subject to quarterly changes.

This company is not the right way to go! Beware!

This company is a complete rip off. Please do not get yourself involve like I did few days ago. They will never give your money back. People like Amber
ID: 4435 and Marisa ID: 1095 (From Customer Support) Darjit Singh (From Sales) will basically lie to you about the service. And trust me I made about 10 phone calls to cancel the service but they won't cancel it. First of all after I had signed up with them I realized that they are not a good company so I did not even bother to try their service at all. I did not even attempt to make any phone calls thru them. But I can tell you for sure that they are bunch of liars. So stay away from them if you want to save some hassle and time.

I just got a call from neura too. I was pissed off when in the very end the man introduced the idea of the 38.95 after the constant talk of 2.9c a minute only as per your call. Anyhow luckily I couldn't find my credit card. I decided to Google them and here I am. This post saved me, thanks guys.
He did give me his name and number said he was floor manager. So if anyone has complaints call him:

I agree with Mrs A.
I started getting calls from them last month (Jan 2010). Call always comes from a restricted number. After listening to them when I told them that I do not want the service and take my name/number off the calling list the sales rep started raising his voice that why should they not be calling. I told him that I will make a complain against the company if they called again and then he said "You will suffer the consequences. You don't know who we are and you are only one person but we are a company and we can do any thing." I asked him if I can speak to the Manager, first he denied but when I insisted he transferred me to some who said his name was Farhan or Rehan and started speaking profanity in urdu/hindi and English. These people are under the impression that since they are sitting somewhere in India no body can get them so they become abusive towards those who refuse to take their service. I was really surprised that this is how they are running the company and if I was really speaking to a Supervisor or Manager.

Can someone please give me their customer service or complaint centre number?
