Online issue

Hello:

I recently ordered cable and internet services from Charter Communications and used online chat service in the process. It was a "Winter Bundle" and I was supposed to get the complete package installed free of charge. I am pasting a part of the transcript that was later sent to my email.

"Valeria: I'm sorry I've never noticed that before, that needs to be fixed, but
what I can offer you is a free installation if you want to go ahead and sign up
for auto-payment.
Srikanth Yamala: i am not going for auto-payment...even if it is your
mistake...you should offer me the installation for 49.99
Srikanth Yamala: that is why i signed-up...and i have it documented.
Valeria: You're set, the installation charge is 49.99.
Valeria: Is there anything else I can help you with today?
Srikanth Yamala: great. thank you. now will i get a confirmation number and a
transcript to my email"

NOW THE TRANSCRIPT WAS CHANGED AND WAS SENT TO MY EMAIL WITH THE CHANGE. INSTEAD OF $49.99 IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE "free".

Even the tone of the conversation suggests that I was referring to the free installation and was not willing to pay $49.99 for installation as the Charter website during the month of May advertised.

Now is it possible that I can take a legal action because the transcript was changed on purpose and I am billed $49.99. With the latest technolgy, is there a possibility that the exact transcript could be traced out?

Many thanks in advance.

Srikanth Yamala

As one who has used Charter for years, while their customer service has fallen some as they have reduced overhead and the number of employees I understand.

I have found that if you first actualy talk to a real person on the phone and perhaps get the supervisor on the phone if you have to, they are very willing to give credits and allowances.

I do not want to say exactly what they did for me, but when I was afraid I was going to have to cancell my services ( I have cable TV and internet from them) and would have phone if they offered it in my area.
But they worked out all the issues very nicely and I have never had a problem with them working out the details if there was a problem.


And I will add that all of thier contract workers I have used in my area are very nice ( not all as smart on computers) but willing to help.
My only real problem with them at all, it seems like everytime they add or change something at a main connection box down the road from me, I lose internet and have to get them to reset them from the main office.
