- I have no idea how does ACT customer service work, so far I have opened dozens of service request just to be able to get the service I have been paying for. All my requests get magically resolved without any notification/acknowledgement or asking for my confirmation.
- My last ticket victim of this modus-operandi was 10213523042 registered earlier this week. Why even bother in having a customer service department when all that it does is mark issues resolved on paper?
- Can you not just honestly accept that your are unable to deliver me ACT Incredible plan and just downgrade my plan to what you can actually deliver and return my money that I'm paying extra in hope of receiving a premium service which is nowhere to be found in reality?
- Frankly I've lost all my patience and escalating it as last resort.

- Hi, I have been constantly raising the issue since my connection was installed, I'm not sure what it takes to get through ACT's Kafkaesque customer service as my grievance has still not been resolved.
- My last ticket again got closed without due action:
- "Dear Customer,Ticket no: 10213307389 is registered. Please allow us some time to address your complaint. Our team will ensure fastest possible action.
- Meanwhile you can use ACT Fibernet app to track your service request - https://is.gd/actapp - ACT Fibernet ."
- Please tell me what is it that I should do to get it heard and resolved or should I just accept that I've been cheated on the promise of ACT Incredible plan to deliver 150MBps speed and keep paying the charges for service yet undelivered to me?
- A helpless ACT customer.

- Hi, I'm still waiting on the cable update, my internet speed is still under 100 Mbps. As I had communicated 11 days ago, I was told by the ACT executive that he was only ordered to upgrade the end device but will need separate authorization for end cable upgrade to support the subscribed plan's (ACT incredible) speed. There has been no further action since then, the previous ticket has been closed. Is there anything still needed from my end to move ahead?

- Okay so there has been some progress. ACT executive called me (+91-884046450) and told that he came to my apartment and upgraded the end device to support ACT incredible speed but he couldn't change the connecting cable from Cat5 to Cat6 as he didn't have approval for that. As a consequence my current internet speed has now improved from 80Mbps to something 90+Mbps in accordance to what executive told me that on existing Cat5 cable connection speed will never exceed 100Mbps and the end cable needs to be upgraded as well.
- Please follow up on the connection cable upgrade from Cat5 (single pair cable) to "twin pair cable".
- Thanks,

- I'm not sure what to make of this, what kind of customer service culture is this?
- I have reopened the ticket since nothing actually got fixed. My connection is still provided with Cat5 cable and I only receive up to 60% of speed (80-90 Mbps over Ethernet) of what my plan ACT Incredible promises (150Mbps) and what I pay for.
- Please take necessary action to properly resolve this.

- There has been no update or action taken on it yet. Should I expect anything at all or just quietly keep paying for a promised premium service while I only get delivered a sub-par experience?

- I have ACT incredible plan which comes with upto 150MBps speed but since the time of installation it self my download speed gets capped at <90 MBps, via ethernet.

Please take necessary actions to ensure the delivery of the plan that I'm paying for. Thanks.

- Hi all,
- Please bear with me for few moments while I lay bare my grievance here..
- Moving recently from the Silicon Valley to the Silicon city of India, after brief living in a serviced apartment where most essentials including internet were provided for I decided to find a place of my own, something of more permanent in nature. For the upcoming move, I started looking into all arranging all essentials that are required for a functioning life in a hi-tech city like Bangalore. Even though most of the things are streamlined for a hassle free move similar to mine, given 100 of thousands or more people go through it every week, I imagined it not to be a small task and figured it can use some careful planning ahead of time.
- Must take care of all essentials ahead of time, talking of essentials, being a techie by profession next thing that comes in the priority list following electricity and water supply would be internet. Alright, on top of it, a week beforehand of move, the very next day after getting the keys to my new apartment I apply for the ACT fibernet connection. Had heard nothing bad in particular and mostly satisfied experiences from few people I bothered to check. Moreover previous tenant already had ACT connection and i could see the wiring still intact inside the hall.
- Thinking in my head, hey! I know we are still a developing nation but in a city like Bangalore I don't need to emphasize the importance of speedy service when it comes to internet connection, especially to a reputed and major corporation like ACT. But oh boy! when the reality plays out, could I be more wrong!
- After providing anything needed from my side as promptly I could, be it 6 months advance or the identification documents required and having been promised an installation in 2 to 3 days, I feel satisfied that by last Friday (29th September) I should have the connection. In hindsight I'm sitting like a fool waiting for the call for installation any moment now. Days pass, my patience runs thin, I call customer support they again reiterate the promise, I should get an installation call any moment now. Nothing happens. Comes Saturday, same story, again promised that installation team is already on top of my case, I'll get the connection any moment now. Sunday comes, you get the theme, so does Monday. I waste my valuable time, contacting customer support over and over as they would not share with me any contact details to the installation team nor would installation team get in touch with me. Meanwhile I keep hitting the same dead-wall, again and again, that customer support has forwarded the issue to concerned team, they are extremely sorry for the delays but I will have a connection my end of Tuesday (today!).
- Well guess what! I'm yet to hear a single word from installation team, no internet connection yet. I and my wife have lost our productivity for whole 4 days now, when we were supposed to take care of many critical things pending at work being tied into the move. I didn't think I'd need to remind ACT corp how essential the internet as a service should be to its customer base but I have no choice to say this is simply not acceptable! So far this has been single handedly the worst service experience of my life.
- I stand wasted a week waiting for the connection, have my 14k stuck as 6 month's advance and paid unquantifiable professional cost, I have no choice but to say today is the last string. I'll be forced to withdraw my connection application, go through the hassle of the tedious process for recovering my six month's advance (not at all looking forward to this but hey, choosing ACT I guess I called for it!?) from you and go with the alternative service. At least I'll have my sanity. I think it would be unfair to not blog about my experience so that anyone else has a transparent understanding what they are getting into before they decide to choose ACT for their internet needs.
- I'm sorry to have bombarded all of you copied on this mail but being in a powerless situation, I have no other choice and who knows if this experience is just an aberration and not the business as usual at ACT corp, may be it just needs a bit of stir, an escalation to the right pair of ears.. (I know, I too am surprised at the quintessential-ity of hope!)
- Thanks for listening OR NOT!
- -A (formerly hopeful) customer to be...
