Knology - KNOLOGY OF KNOXVILLE Billing and Collection errors.. Knology has cost me 4+ years of bad credit.. BEWARE Knoxville, Tennessee

I had the bundled service through Knology in 2004. I called to have everything turned off except the cable internet. The following month I was charged the full amount for all 3 services. I Called Knology Customer Service and was told not to pay the bill and that they would correct the issue. I then had all the services turned off as I was moving with the military.

90 Days later I found they had placed the full overcharged amount on my credit as a collection account. I called their CS and paid the full overcharged amount to attempt to salvage my credit. All this accomplished was that it changed to a paid collection which is just as bad as the original.

I deployed to iraq in 2006 and could not continue my efforts to have this removed. I followed up with Knology in 2007 to once again attempt to remedy the issue. I eventually was told by CS that YES I did overpay the account and that they would cut me a check for the overpaid balance (which they did). I asked to have the collection account removed from my credit and was told sorry we cant do that. I replied by saying that the issue was caused by incorrect billing and that I should not be penalized because of their error and again was told sorry its not our policy to remove collection accounts.

Well now I am tired of seeing this on my credit and I wrote knology to let them know that I will be filing formal complaints with every website that will allow me to post my story. They replied saying that the account is at a 0 balance and to give them a call if I have any other issues. I KNOW THE BALANCE IS 0, I WANT THE PAID COLLECTION TAKEN OFF OF MY CREDIT!!!!

Knology has cost me thousands of dollars in interest hikes over the past 5 years because of THEIR billing and collection errors. It is unacceptable that five years later I am still suffering from Knologies careless billing practices. After doing a quick google search it appears this is a common issue with Knology.

As Knologies Services CANT compare to Comcast or Charter.. I would stay as far away from this company as possible unless you want a billing nightmare on your hands..
