Double charges-unauthorized charges
I received a cancellation confirmation #, and they charged me several more times in addition to having double charged me before that. I sent them emails w/the transaction numbers which were "delayed" or "undeliverable". So, peoplepc is a HUGE ripoff. I had to cancel my credit card and get a new one. They'd still be charging me if I hadn't gotten a new card. I'll see if there's a class action suit against them, and if so, maybe I can some money back...

Can never get into email
I can never get into my email, it is total aggrivation. I am ready to cancel this service and go back to netscape. Peoplepc has never showed any improvement to customer service. I had a previously problem and I spoke with 3 different people and finally after venting for a while, he did help me. I will never recommond Peoplepc to anyone, in fact I will tell people to NOT to subscribe.

Fraudulent billing!
I signed up for a 30-day free trial of PeoplePC back in November. I had gotten points through a reward program for signing up. I never once even installed it on my computer. I have internet through my cable company. So I canceled after 3 days. I was told that everything was canceled and I would no longer be billed. So 4 months go by and my credit card had been compromised and was canceled. A few days later I get a call from PeoplePc telling me that my monthly fee could not be processed. so I called them and they tell me that when I had never canceled their service. Apparently, I had been billed every month, unknowingly. I told them that I had canceled after only a few days during my free trial and that I wanted the account closed.
PeoplePC refused to close the account until I paid them the balance on the account due to my card being declined. I continued to explain to them that I have never even used their services and that I had been fraudulently billed for the past 4 months. So that call got me nowhere. So every day, their billing department calls about 5 times a day to collect the balance on the account. I have spoken with 14 reps and 5 supervisors. All of which have claimed they could not help me. They claim that they cannot close an account that has a balance on it.
So the harassing calls keep coming every day. Eventually I had enough. I typed out a nice letter to the California State Attorney General. I made one last attempt and called them to rectify the issue. I got some Indian guy on the phone named Bob (yeah... ok). Bob connected me with a supervisor. I explained to the supervisor the situation and informed him that if the matter could not be addressed while I was on the phone that I would be mailing my letter out to the California State Attorney General in the morning. I then proceeded to read my letter to him to let him know that I wasn't just bs'ing. Amazingly enough, he was able to go right in and zero out the balance on the account and close it. So you would think that would be the end of it, right?
WRONG!!! Every day I am still getting at least 3-5 calls per day from their billing department. When I ask why they are calling, they start to say "There is a balance on your account of... um... zero dollars." I then proceed to tell them to stop calling me or I will file a harassment suit. I have spoken with several reps and several supervisors SINCE my account has been closed (again) and NOBODY can tell me why I am continually being called. So today again (at 8am) they are calling me again.
So I am writing this complaint to warn everyone to STAY AWAY from PeoplePC. It is a horrible company. I will be sending out my letter to the California State Attorney General's office later today, as well as filing a complaint with the BBB. Not that the BBB really does anything. If you have similar issues with PeoplePC, I recommend contacting the Attorney General in their state. If they receive enough complaints, they will go after them. The BBB really can't do much other than send them a letter telling them they have a complaint. So the BBB is pretty useless in my opinion.

Withdrew $149.00 from my checking without my knowledge.
I was charged (they withdrew from my checking account without my knowledge or permission) $149.00 and some cents for closing my account. I had PeoplePC for over 5 years and did not have a contract with them. Please help me get my money back?

Terrible company!
Approximately last November I signed a contract with Peoplepc.com agreeing to pay for DSL service for 24 months. I fully intended on keeping this service for some time as I'd been happy with their dial up service. On February 26th my DSL service quit working. It worked fine that Tuesday morning and upon coming home that night, it was offline.
My account was current so I called tech support and worked with the techs even though he was very difficult to understand at times because of accent issues. He was unable to resolve my problem and I was told to call back at a later time I believe and given a 'trouble ticket number' and wished a goodnight.
In the next week that followed I called every day and attempted to correct the issue with the service. The techs that I talked to told me they would check on something and call me back in about 30-60 minutes. I never received a phone call in return, even after furnishing my personal cell phone number.
In my attempt to contact tech support I have waited on hold for an hour one night and never reached them. The next night I waited for 20 minutes and the night after that I was transfered from customer service to tech support again and was on hold for 40 minutes.
I've never once been rude to their customer service but found that they seem to read from a script and do not listen to my complaints other than to state every break 'I understand your concern'.
I informed them that I'm paying for a service that is not being provided and would like released from my contract. They then informed me that since I'm asking to be released from my contract I would incure the early termination fee of $145.00. PeoplePC is billing me for a service they are not providing.
I have determined that the error is not on my end of the wire after following all instructions from tech support to a 'T', asking associates that work as tech support for other companies and also doing a complete system restore to a point when my DSL did work, all at my own expense.
I have upheld my end of the contract by paying my bills, but still I continue to have no service and Peoplepc refuses to dissolve a contract that they obviously cannot deliver on.
I have now filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau regarding Peoplepc. All I wish, is to be able to return the modem and have my contract dissolved due to noncompliance.

Scam and criminal activity!
PEOPLEPC IS CROOKED. They steal money from your account following your cancellation. Upon further contact, they tell you your account wasn't canceled, that they apologize, they are unable to refund your (stolen) money and here is your new cancellation number.

Billing
My husband and I were the victims of credit card fraud. PeoplePC was one of the fraudulent charges. We called them several times to cancel the account. They finally said the account was canceled, however, they have not refunded us the original charges. A customer rep told us we would have to fax corporate hq with police report but then never gave us a fax number. ??? I pity the next credit card theft victim who has to deal with this greedy, uncooperative company.
