ISPs Bill Customers for Months of Service They Failed to Activate

Internet service providers mail self-install kits to customers who cannot complete setup, then refuse to provide assisted setup while continuing to charge monthly fees. Non-technical and senior customers are systematically disadvantaged by self-install-first policies. The combination of failed activation and continued billing creates financial harm with no internal escalation path.

ISP refund cards expire before customers can use them

Telecommunications providers issue prepaid debit cards for refunds instead of direct credits, with expiration dates that don't account for delivery delays.
