ISPs Charge Customers Shipping Fees to Replace Defective Provider-Owned Equipment

Internet providers replace their own malfunctioning equipment but bill customers for shipping costs, framing a provider failure as a customer expense. Support sessions take hours of back-and-forth negotiation to waive fees that should never have been charged. The practice exploits customers who have no leverage beyond threatening to cancel service.
