Breach of a verbal Contract

Dear Cox Communications Customer Support,

I am writing to formally address a concerning issue that I encountered today regarding my account, as a long-time customer of almost a year.

Earlier today, I called Cox to inquire about my past due balance. My first interaction was with a representative, whose name I unfortunately did not catch, who confirmed that my past due balance was $277.00, with an overall balance of $421.00. I was offered a solution in which I could pay $227.00, which would result in a $50.00 reduction. The remaining $144.00 was to be applied toward my next bill, and my services would be reconnected.

I confirmed with the representative that paying the $227.00 would restore my internet service, and I proceeded with the payment. However, after the payment was processed, I was transferred to a service department agent named Amanda, who told me that my services would not be restored due to the remaining $144.00 balance.

I explained the agreement I had made with billing, but Amanda disregarded my concerns and became dismissive. After I expressed my frustration, she accused me of being loud and rude, and threatened to hang up on me. She did not honor the initial agreement I had been given, which left me feeling misled and disrespected.

I then had to call back, only to be placed on hold once again, before being transferred to a supervisor named Jon (ID 6589). This interaction was extremely unsatisfactory, as Jon displayed rude behavior and made racially charged remarks, further escalating the situation.

I am deeply disappointed with the level of service I have received and the failure to follow through on an agreement that was made in good faith. I request that this matter be thoroughly investigated, and that the initial agreement regarding my bill and service restoration be honored.

Please let me know how this will be resolved. I trust that Cox Communications will take this issue seriously and address both the billing discrepancy and the inappropriate behavior I encountered.

Sincerely,
Charae Cuffee

  • Hi, Charae. I'm really sorry for the issue with your bill and our support. I want to help. Please know the purpose of the Cox community forums is to allow customers to discuss technical topics related to residential Cox services with other customers and we encourage our users to assist each other where possible via this avenue. Billing and issues related to a specific account require the sharing of sensitive information to resolve which isn't best suited for a public forum.
