Suspicious call from Spectrum offering bill reduction and phones

We received a call from Spectrum to reduce our current bill and to partner with Verizon (our phone service) to reduce our rates with them also. We were to go to their website and order 2 phones on my account, have them delivered to our home, and when they arrive, do not open the box but call this number (210-201-4344) to get a shipping label to return them unopened. Then we would get a discount on next month's bill.

Spectrum charging me twice a month and adding late fees

I've been paying my spectrum bill 2 times a month . I called several times asking why my bill is so high being it's supposed to be 120 a month on the 20 the of each month . They said my bill was not paid on time. So I paid it all up in February they took 120 March on the 20th why is spectrum trying to take a other 120 on the 4th of April when the bill is due on the 20th ? Then I called and they said that it was hit with late charges HOW???? WHEN I PAID IT UP FULL ? THEY HAVE BEEN ROBBING ME FOR 1 WHOLE YEAR I WANT ALL MY MONEY BACK . HOW CAN I GET MY MONEY BACK .

March 5, 2025 - I went onto the AT&T website and clicked on the Internet tab, hoping that I could initiate internet service at my new place and hopefully bundle it with my wireless plan for a lower price. Called the number to inquire about rates and decided to lock in. After I hung up the phone, I was sent a confirmation e-mail from Spectrum! This whole time I thought I was speaking to an AT&T representative but turned out that was not the case. I revisited the website and noticed that the phone number button switches from an 844 to an 866 number within 2-3 seconds of the page loading. I even have a video recording of it. Very strange.

The day prior, I called Spectrum to inquire about home internet, but ultimately decided to shop around because I was not satisfied about their customer service. The agent was persistent in pressuring me into creating an account within the next hour or two because she "built out" my location since my address was not in their system -- and if I don't then I would not be able to sign up for another 30 days (fear tactic or what). That was a lie, I guess, because I somehow ended up with Spectrum anyway.

When I locked in my price for Spectrum (who I thought was AT&T) the representative threw in an additional $10/mo discount for signing up for autopay. I called in within the same week to confirm of my $21.29/mo pricing and was assured that it's noted in my account.

Called back again this week because the waived $65 installation fee and the $10 autopay discount did not appear to be applied to my statement, but now the billing department is adamant about the autopay discount not existing... even after their "review" of the recorded phone call. What is going on at Spectrum!?

Scamming people for retention. Shame.

I am filing a complaint against Spectrum Internet. They unexpectedly changed their billing policy and now require customers to pay the full amount on the bill, even if the service is disconnected after just 12 days. They insist on payment for the entire 31 days of the month, citing a clause in the billing statement.

I recently switched internet service providers and now have to pay for both services. Spectrum does not offer prorated billing for the end of service for some unclear reasons.

Roger wells set up internet with spectrum at my address. I was not cintacted about my 4 year service being cancelled i was aware my service was disconnected and set up at my address by another person. Now im told if i want my service turned back on i have to go all the way to a spectrum store and give a copy of my lease for proof of residance. Did roger wells need to do that. No. He did not. Also spectrum refused to i.d. the sales agent behjnf this scam. But They still cancelled my account march 8th and then charged my auto pay march 10th. I havebeen an ideal customer almost 5 years. This is fraud and needs investigated.

I received a voicemail from someone from "Spectrum" claiming we were about to lose our discount and if I called back, there is another discount available. When I called back they told me they had a promotion that would half my bill from 109.98 to only $55 a month for up to 3 years. The only catch was that I had to pay for the first year up front for $660.00, then I would start getting billed $55.00 a month after that. I was then given and auth code and a number to call the "Billing Dept" to pay the $660.00. That number was 1-888-330-4471 and the auth code I was given was SPC0811. Then he proceeded to tell me that this promotion was backed by Target and that I could either sign up for a Target credit/debit card and use that to pay the $660 or I could use Target gift cards. After getting him to explain that concept to me that I was to go purchase Target gift cards totaling $660 then call that billing number and use those cards to pay the first year. The worst part is that at one point he put me on hold for a few minutes then came back and said he just ran my card on file(which come to find out in the actual Spectrum call it does tell you the last 4 of the card on file and you can make payments) for $4.99 for a sign-up fee for the promotion. Which made me receive an email from Spectrum showing that payment of $4.99. Which almost worked in making it seem legitimate. He told me I had until the next day 8PM to get this $660 paid by. I was still having a hard time wrapping my brain around this whole pay for Spectrum services with Target gift cards and I called the number on my actual Spectrum bill and spoke to someone in the billing department, and she told me it was a scam. I told her that he did charge my card on file for the $4.99 and that I now had a $4.99 credit on the account. She talked to her superior and that is when we found out about it stating the last 4 digits of the card on file in the automated system and that is how the scammer knew the last four digits of my card. I just wanted to share this as I know not everyone would have turned around and called Spectrum themselves because when they answered on the 754-663-6753 it sounds just like Spectrum's automated system. They guy also gave me his name Steven ***** and his extension is 811. I hope this helps get them stopped from paying on innocent people.

I have received two calls from two different people now, from Paul last friday and from David today (monday), both claiming to be Spectrum employees. They told me that since I was a senior, I was eligible for a FREE modem and router that would be delivered in two days via Fed Ex and that they just needed to do a "casual" credit check first and that I just needed to make one monthly internet payment over the phone with them. He then asked for my SS#. I told him that I never give out that information over the phone. Paul then told me that they only needed to confirm the last four digits (seemed safe enough) so I complied ( Dumb me). I became suspicious the next day so I checked with my banking institution the and was told that two transactions occurred on that same day totaling approximately $400.00. What actually did come in the mail was a new cell phone (intentional mistake on their part.....hence the SCAM); no router no modem. It turns out that their intent was to have me sign for the phone with the Fed Ex person ( I was told that I absolutely needed to SIGN for it because it couldn't just be dropped off). Realizing the mistaken delivery, I would then return the phone to a FAKE Spectrum address (which in reality is most assuredly their address or P.O. box not Spectrums address) and they now are able to use a phone that my debit card has paid that which I never authorized. I contacted the Spectrum fraud dept. and they explained to me how this scam worked. My bank is now crediting my account in order to remedy this Scam.

I received a voicemail from "Spectrum Internet" of which I am a customer. The voicemail explained an offer that was about to expire. I called the number back and there was what seemed like a legitimate "Spectrum" touch-tone" menu for CS support, billing, etc. I was transferred to a representative who sounded Indian, but their English was good. They told me that to reduce my existing bill by 50% by 5-years that I would need to run the first 10 months payment through Target, the retailer. I told them that this is a scam and hung up.

Scammer left voicemail from phone: 206-XXX-XXXX. Offered a 50% discount by agreeing to pay $4.99 for activation fee. Scammer already knew my DISCOVER card number and used it to charge the $4.99. He did it immediately and it showed up on my Discover card. He also sent a thank you to my email address (gmail.com) for the $4.99. Next I was told to call: 833-XXX-XXXX Ext. 1 and ask for the Finance Department, and give the Activation code: SPCT XXXXX. Then they would charge $360.00 (paying the first 18 months of a 50% discount of my bill). I did not call the 2nd phone number and instead called Spectrum only to discover I was scammed.
