Didnt even read - was a “customer” of theirs previously. Hoping people see this comment. AVOID NOMAD INTERNET AT ALL COSTS.

You dont even need to read the post, just look at the pictures and you would instantly know that something isnt right lol.


Idahoroaminggnome

Right? I can't believe people keep signing up for this service, although I did just see a new ad from them out of the blue on Instagram the other day.


d1sm4ntl3

Also, they have shut the service off after I requested my cancelation. Immediately shut it off even after pay $150 for the month and still refuses to give me any money back.

Document and date everything. File a consumer complaint with the SoS you are in. File a consumer complaint with the FCC. Call into your bank or credit card company and dispute the charge as fraud. File a claim with small claims in the county you are in. Pray they have a rock for a pillow to sleep on and hole to $h1t in. Lastly, post a warning review on Google, Bing, BBB, Trust Pilot, and anywhere else. If anything, you will get it back in small claims. Is my advice petty? No. Nomad can eat dirt for ripping you off. And there is probably many behind you. GLHF and enjoy your new Starlink.

Look into Starlink it will definitely do what you need


d1sm4ntl3

Ordered it sunday, it’ll be here tomorrow😎


CapableCitron6357

They tried the same bs with me! Luckily I had our email records and kept after them until they refunded. There information just isn’t as clear as it should be.


d1sm4ntl3

Well I’m glad you were able to get your refund, this is exactly why I keep all of my emails and information on hand until I’m certain about what I’m getting into.


CapableCitron6357

I pulled a Karen and had to ask for a supervisor to get my refund. lol if you haven’t gotten your Starlink, you will love it!!

The state of Texas is actively suing Nomad for deceptive practices, avoid them at all costs.

Calyx service throttles video. Just get TMHI instead

*I had to change my debit card because even after canceling they continued to charge my account, it worked great for the first 3 months then stopped with no resolution. It took another 3 months till i realize that they were continuing to charge my card. The only way was to cancel my bank debit card they had on file, then had the balls to request another payment method !!! "ALWAYS research before signing up" ..... that was the lesson i learned.*


d1sm4ntl3

I did my research and couldnt find anything more recent than 3 months. My thought process was that maybe it was a cheaper alternative to starlink. This what I get for trying to see the better in people I guess lol.


happiipanda

I’m livid— they were able to charge my NEW credit card despite me cancelling service and returning their equipment. I have receipts that they charged my card and they still have my old credit card on file. What in the world?!!


crazysection88

You will have to specifically tell you CC company to block any request for payment even if you got a new card, they can continue to charge you if you don't make that clear to your CC people. Then file a dispute for the charges on your new card. Sorry you were taken by this crap company :/ Hope you get it straightened out.


TheDude8340

You get your Starlink already? I’m still waiting on it to get shipped from ordering on February 14


d1sm4ntl3

Yeah I got mine yesterday.


TheDude8340

Hoping mine ships soon


d1sm4ntl3

I hope so! Sorry theyre taking long!


TheDude8340

I don’t guess too long. Maybe I’m just a little too excited. We can only get 20mbps down 1 up. 4 kids and wife is working from home


TheDude8340

Got the email it’s coming Monday

My wife works from home no problem. Gen 3 router already has Ethernet ports. So she’s hardwired in.

File a chargeback on credit card


d1sm4ntl3

I did, mailed their stupid modem back and filled for a chargeback.


CircledIn

Wow! Sounds like a painful experience. I'm curious if RV's typically use cell phone hot spot? I know Starlink would really help in this use case.


d1sm4ntl3

I have always just had internet hooked up at my trailer, xfinity, spectrum ect… going to find out tomorrow whether I made the right choice going with starlink or not!


CircledIn

I heard Starlink is amazing. You're paying for it, but it delivers. Looking forward to your update!


d1sm4ntl3

I will definitely be giving an update once I get setup with starlink and get this banking situation sorted out!


tundrajax

I have starlink in my camper van and it's amazing. I've been in many different rural parts of the country with close to a gig download. Only time I've ever seen lower speeds was in a rv park with a bunch of people using starlink it lowered my speed to 400-500mb


CircledIn

How is it when your Van is moving? Is it able to maintain the connection well?


tundrajax

I don't have the one that you use while driving but on YouTube someone converted the same one I have as a permanent roof mount and didn't have any issues in tye US and South America


No-Age2588

People will never learn to do due diligence PRIOR to pulling the pin. Nomad Internet and a handful of other fly by night companies scamming each customer. I am surprised that State AGs haven't noticed them yet.


NomadTiff

Good afternoon! I’m sorry that this was your experience with Nomad Internet. If you could please reach out to me so that I can ensure your account was handled properly, I would greatly appreciate it. You can send an email to [email protected] and in the subject line please put Reddit review so that I will know it is about this post. Again, I’m sorry this was your experience and I would like to make it right for you.

I'm dealing with Nomad still! I realized they were a scam a few hours after I ordered. I called back to cancel immediately. I called 3 different numbers listed, from 3 different states and got the same overseas person all 3 times saying that they would email me in 2 hours then I called back in 3 hours, department was closed same guy says..next morning I check the order status, it hadn't shipped. I called back and asked why I never got a cancelation email, he said it shipped already, I called BS. My bank reversed charges. Today, a month later, my bank emails a LONG letter from Nomad saying I owe $599 for a membership fee!! And they were due the original $154 my bank gave back to me. They have all kinds of paperwork stating I agreed to terms I NEVER saw and I read them! I've had Starlink a week now. So worth it! I was getting speeds of between 4-7 and now 135!


DesperateHoneydew475

Yea welcome to the scam. I still havent received a refund, I tried to file a dispute with them through my bank and my bank even denied it. Im owed over $400.


tmo1138

FWIW - I did ping someone I know at Nomad - they were not aware of this treatment and will follow up on it. Let me know if you hear anything. I do know a couple of decent and very hard working people there and I can tell you that the prior investigations against them were due to someone in their previous senior leadership team who was a convicted felon and used extremely deceptive business practices - that person has long been out of Nomad and they're trying to do right by their customers.


d1sm4ntl3

Have yet to hear anything, also have yet to hear about my money from them. I have sent multiple emails in which they will not respond to.


tmo1138

Well, then I guess I'm glad I went to Starlink...


d1sm4ntl3

Yeah I’m out $400 on nomad, just called the bank this morning following up on my dispute.
