Telnet is a sub agent of Verizion, AT&T, and Time Warner. How it works is they call you and if you agree then they make an order and you sign it. Then they submit it and then the order get enter and submitted, then it goes to Verizon, AT&T, or Time Warner Cable. Then the actual company will call you to sent up a site survey, then your service will be installed. You never pay telnet, in fact you don't pay anything till after the people from the company hook it up. Which then you just paying the bill. Now we only do business class service. Also be careful what you put in the Internet. This could be considered grounds for a law suit for lost of business.

FYI it's a sun agent for Verizon, AT&T, and Time Warner Cable

For all you people who think its a scam...I work there we are a sub-agent for Verizion, AT&T, and Time Warner Cable. Sub- Agent meaning we are authorized to do business with as that service.

Directors sex with staff ppl selling drugs between staff and employees.the actual owners of this company is venture group enterprises on Whitehall park drive in Charlotte nc it's a scam but I need a job

I am a former employee of Verizon Business the Fios department and now I work for Telnet they are an authorized telemarketer for Verizon to win back customers who left at a discounted rate  :) .  So maybe it may be worth your time to listen.

Are you still there ?

It was probably the worst job I ever had.  Very anti-WHITE.

I wonder if you still work for them.    If so,  why are so many of the other Employees filing complaints with the EEOC ?

Answer that ?


Seriously, please check your facts.

Please email me at dave@csiatlanta.com  with any problems, complaints, discrimination or any other issues with this company.  

Many complaints from consumers, businesses and current and ex-employees seem to be arising from this company and they need to be STOPPED.

The more information we can collect on this company the better for everyone.

Thanks
Dave

I work for telnet marketing group we follow strict fcc laws and guidlines and its FRontier i call for they bought out verizon. and there is so many laws and recording and security procedures we go trhou to help lower your bill i am not a scam

I am a business owner that uses Verizon services and spoke to someone from TelNet several months ago.  They were able to save me a substantial amount of money on my Verizon bill and did put me through a third party verification to ensure that I was not being slammed.  My service with Verizon is exactly the same.  I still receive a bill from them with no additional third party charges (which show up as "on behalf of" charges) and they saved me money.

Not happy? Yu make peanuts compared to us.

If these calls are so annoying, why do yoou want to waste your time and string soomeone along?  Seems pretty counter intuitive.  If you let someone think that they have a chance at a sale, of coourse they are gpoing to keep calling you.

I briefly worked for Telnet when I was in between more skilled jobs, and can say for a fact that Telnet iis noot a scam. By and large, it is a group of good people trying to make an honest living. All sales are recorded and verified by a third pparty, so there is no slamming. Additionally, employees are required to say that they are calling oon behalf of Verizon, Cincinnati Bell, OneComm, etc.They absolutely can  not sswitch you without yoour consent.  People have been fired for getting cute .  Also, since they are calling from an automatic dialer occasionallly the same number will be called before it can be added to the DNC list and removed.  There is no malicious intent, just a shortcoming in logistics. Sometimes they can save yoou money and sometimes not, but they are certainly not trying to scam anyone.

Wow, you 'telnet' people, and followers, sound quite angry.  Not happy with the job????

I am a new employee of telnet and we record all transactions that take place and have a quality control department that closely monitors these calls to make sure that nothing unethical is happening during the sales transactions.  In fact the effort in this regard has been intense and the company is taking these complaints very seriously.  
Regretfully it is true in any organization there will be employees who violate policy but they are dealt with in an appropriate fashion.  The leadership team at Telnet is extremely dedicated to making sure that all interactions with customers are ethical and present a legit value to the end user.  
Any feedback on the behavior of the sales reps is certainly appreciated and welcome.

I have been receving calls from this number for a couple weeks now.  This last guy said he was with Qwest, Qwest signs his paycheck.  It's annoying how many times they call!! Some days I string them along...  letting them think they'll get a big sale out of me.  Never gonna happen!!

Some idiot called called from 888-900-1342, and i found this page on Google.  It took him FOREVER to 'pull up my account'.  As he was asking me questions about how many lines I had etc.  I found this page.  I asked him what company he was from, he said "Telenet", I said, "I'm not interested" and hung up.

as a former employee they can actually save you money sometimes, but when they can most of the employees claim the bundle will include things you don't need so that they can up their own commissions. Ur bill still may end up lower but not as low as it could have been. Furthermore most of the employees don't have a firm enough grasp of math to adequately read your bill, ie SLC charges are federal taxes that they will often include in your "current bill" "before taxes" and then quote you a slightly lower rate that does not include SLC charges the result being that your bill goes up. Lastly no matter how good the deal or what they can propose they are signing you up for a 36 month contract, that's why verizon uses them (yes they are authorized agents) but if you were to go to verizon and ask for their promotions claim you were thinking of switching to cable, they can offer you an even better deal. (the same way you get a cell phone free when you sign up for service) Any questions you may have feel free to drop me a line at hereisthebestnameever@yahoo.com i'd be happy to enlighten you

To this dumb person..I AM a current customer with Telnet and We only say we are and AUTHORIZED AGENT OF VERIZON OR WHATEVER COMPANY WE MAKE CALLS FOR...Now if you as a dumb!@# don't understand that several companies hir outside vendors to provide services for them the you should crawl back under the rock u been under for the last 20 years and stay their...Also al you had to do was say no you didn't want to save money and we would hang up and go to the next customer with common sense....

The caller claimed to be from Cincinnati Bell Telephone, and I told her I wasn't interested in her proposal to lower my phone bill.  I told her that her caller ID wasn't Cincinnati Bell, and then she told me that she works for a company who represents Cincinnati Bell and takes care of their advertising and promotions.

Received a call from 888-900-1342 said they were from Verizon and that they "were not selling anything." Said that they wanted to review the account so that I could save money. I said, "I don't want to talk to you." I then hung up. Five minutes later got a call from the same person who said, "....did we get disconnected?" I said, "No, I ended the call." I said for her to send me anything she had to say in writing. She said, "there is no letter concerning that." I said, I don't want to talk to you. I am ending the call." Caller said, "when would be a better time to call?" I said, "there will be no better time, don't call me anymore, I don't want to talk to you." She said, "I'll call back at a better time," and hung up. Bi***!

what kind of sick sad bitter person would attempt to scareor damage the hearing of someone just trying to do an honest job. You are probably the same kind of person who thinks everyone on welfare or a disability is just a bum.  What a sad loser - Get on teh do not call list or just hang up the phone. No one makes you talk to anyone.

THANKS FOR USING ALL CAPS, JERK! WHY DON'T YOU GET A REAL JOB INSTEAD OF WORKING FOR TELEMARKETING SCAMMERS. PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE WHY I KEEP AN AIR HORN NEXT TO MY PHONE!
