This company is a horrible rip-off!
I pay for speeds of 800/down and 100/up, but what I actually receive is about 250/down and 50/up!

You ought to try testing your own speeds (customercare.myhughesnet.com/tools/speed test).

I made a call to their customer service about slow speeds I've been experiencing and they tell me that I pay for services UP TO (jkey words here) 800/down and 100/up - which is extremely rare that I actually receive this much - because the network is busy. ALL DAY, EVERY DAY THE NETWORK IS BUSY! ABSURD!!!
Not to mention you can't understand a d**n thing their customer service reps are saying (heavy accent).

I'm finding a new provider TODAY. I think we should organize a class action lawsuit!!!

Also may want to try this number it does work and gets you to corporate direct and fast.................

Call the Corporate Office, press 0 for the Operator and ask for Executive Customer Care.
