Reviews and Complaints

Dear STC Representative, I am complaining about stc billing dept for unfair billing.they stop my internet service last Jan 2017 since the unlimited internet package for one month is finished.i paid the bill via atm service and gave the receipt to them, they told the net sim which i have used is finished and cancelled, so i have to take another new net sim for unlimited offer for one month .Again i went to pay the bill of my second sim they told there is no more payment to be done, no settlement of bill is shown in the system.And they issued another new sim for me for the next one month by telling that my second net sim also cancelled.But when i went today for paying the bill they told i have to pay the bill of all the three net sim cards, which are not yet cancelled, till now they still continue my bill .How come like that since one can issue a net sim card witout cancelling the previous one, none of the staff have any answer for this, and simpky by telling that i have to pay the whole amount of three sims of all these months, .Kindly do the needful as soon as possible since they didnt cancelled our netsims yet, each day they are adding bill for all these sims even though the sims are not working

we are asking for our bill payment statement since one year we want to clarify our accounts.
and we asked your people if we can pay part of the bill cuz you people are not willing to give our payment statement they said we can. So did we, and later on they cut our line again we called to make sure, they returned the line again two days after they cut the line again we called they returned the line so finally when we called for the third time the employee said if your bill is less than 2000 we can't return the line because if its more than 2000 and they returned the line the system will automatically cut your line.
Good so we paid 3/4 of our bill because our CEO HRH princesses told us not to pay the whole bill unless we receive a BILL PAYMENT STATEMENT and today we were surprised by the employee who received our call to say he cant return us our line unless we pay the whole amount we need our company to run its business so kindly find us a solution or Give us a statement ...

I have applied for a new wifi landline internet package.i have gone to stc office so many times the staff tells us to wait.We are doing jobs we r not free to visit stc offices many times.I have also given him the picture of the stc box close to our rooms.It is my request to get your feedback regarding new connection of stc landline internet.If not possible i will try for mobily internet.

Today I returned from what has been my 9th visit from stc (riyadh, hay al rabwa) office; feeling hugely disappointed and frustrated all over again.

I first visited stc rabwah office on 17th of april to downgrade my postpaid plan to prepaid (sawa). the executive asked me to pay the outstanding bill which was 195 sar. I paid the amount. I was then informed that there is some system error and I have to come back the next day to complete my request.

I came the next day. the system problem was not resolved. I was asked to come after 2 days. when I visited them again I was informed, they need management approval in the system for my changes to reflect. they advised me to come after 2-3 days. better to come on sunday 21st of april.

When I visited them on sunday, I was again informed that they system is still not ready and I have to come after a couple of days. the same reason was presented to me each time I request for transfer of my service from postpaid to prepaid.

Taking pity of my regular appearance, an executive there named mr. khaled (alharbi?) asked me to hand over my business card and mobile number to him. once the system is functional he assured to call me back. I waited for over a week for his call. dejected with the lack of response, I visited their office the 8th time on 7th of may.

On 7th of may, I was surprised to find another bill of 268 sar waiting for me. I objected to it. why should I pay for deficiency in stc system? in which universe will it be fair to rip customers for companies system fault!

I was then asked to talk with the supervisor. the person was rude and forced me to either pay the new bill or else leave the premises. if I didn't pay this amount, they cannot proceed with my request of converting postpaid to prepaid. he further gave me a word that once I pay the new bill my service request will be completed within an hour.

I had no reason but to pay my hard earned money for stc's inefficient system and customer grievance management. I paid the new bill of 268 sar on may 7th. I waited for an hour. I was informed that sometimes this request may take more time better to call customer service.

I called 900, they asked me to wait for 24 hours.
I waited for 24 hours and called again, they said to wait for another 24 hours.
I waited another 24 hours, they asked me to go to stc office again.

Today for the 9th time, I visited stc office. and guess what they have to say? yes, that correct; their "system is down" for the love of god, why can't stc repair their inefficient system.

I feel helpless and totally frustrated with this service.
This mobile number of mine is used on all my business correspondence; all my customers call me on this number. moreover, the banks, government portals, etc.. have this number of mine in their database. I cannot afford to lose this number, nor can I afford to pay exorbitant bills without usage.

Stc, if you are reading this... please train people so they can resolve your customer's basic problem. teach them humility and work ethics. shouting on customers for the fault of your system will destroy your image.

I don't want to pay another bill for stc's sluggish customer management and systems. help me find a solution. I am hugely disappointed and exhaustively tired of reaching out to your offices and executives.

Please help.

Regards
Omais

thanks,

It has been about 2 months now since I called to submit my complaint. No one could manage my complaint seeking solution. Additional service was added to my line without my consent and I am getting charged for! I called 10 times to ask for removing the service and removing the added charges, every time someone misleads me even more.

Hi,

First time I am using etihad airline and it's my worst experience is going on. Out flight is delay approx 30min (10:50pm 16th Feb 17schedule) Riyadh to Abu Dhabi. In Abu Dhabi we reached before 40min of connecting flight but (schedule connecting time is 1hour 10min). Ground staff refused to boarding that flight and mentioned this flight is not possible and you need to take next flight after 12hour. They give me lounge access for only 5hours and that lounge haven't sleeping facilities, after 5hours once again we go and meet with customers service they give me sleeping pods access. There we can sleep but they not provide blanket, pillows and none of food item.
My question is very simple why etihad team not allowed to boarding schedule flight. If it is not possible than why they not provide hotel with complete facilities.

As per my information etihad customers complain never take any action. But I would like to share you own worst experience and I promised you in future I will not travel again and never suggest anyone.

I got this 3 months unlimited package from STC which is SR 160/ month and it says i would get internet speeds upto 150 Mb/s but what i am receiving throughout the whole day im getting on speeds less than 1 Mb/s and during the night from 12AM uptil 2AM im receiving speeds upto 20 Mb/s... So I tried contacting the customer support 2-3 times but no development in the speed. So im not satisfied with my connection speed and would like to have a Technician visit to come and check what would be the problem regarding the speed issue.. Hope that STC looks into my complaint and gives a better response...

In oct-2015 stc offer 149 package for 99SR for 1 year. Its for 2 year contract but before finishes contract period they started billing 249 each without any confirmation from my side. Even they did'nt give one call for inform this amount variation. Several times I call and make complaints through their connecting channel but they didn't act anything for this. Atlast i am hold payment for one month but this cheating STC taken 5 months payment and cancellation charges 422 from me. I am very normal salary getting person. I am very sad because its happening inside ISLAMIC COUNTRY and from muslim people.

Honestly I'm not one to write reviews but the tremendously poor customer service I've encountered with STC has forced me to do so. I visited the female customer service section a few times and there is always no one available to serve. And when they do appear, they serve with absolutely no work ethic. There are also many other complaint-worthy instances, however, I would like to focus on the extremely poor customer service. It really is a shame that you call yourself the Saudi Telecom Company. You're seriously unworthy of the name.

I was late paying a bill due to being away. Paid immediately on return and still not reconnected. Another 'lost' week which has been paid for.
When I moved apartment the salesperson started a new account rather than move the existing account. For three months I have been double billed for two accounts. When I moved it took a further 7 weeks to have the router correctly configured.
The service is a complete joke. The worst I have experienced...
The irony is their behavior is Haram - not in line with Shariah principles.
Call them - the line is either busy or they do not pick up. Go to their www to see their Complaints Policy - the URL link takes you to their internal audit governance document.
Staggeringly incompetent bunch of thieves. And I have said that to their face. One last point - they have Saudized the business (let go of all of the foreign people that used to have half an idea what they were doing...) and replaced them with locals who a) can't speak English b) have no clue what they are doing and c) have no idea how to treat customers. It's just not in their DNA...

Dear STC
I have a internet connection at my home by number [protected]
My conection was upgraded by your STC sales or marketing peoples by saying i wil get upto 20mb speed.

Instead of geting a nominal speed iam geting only less than 5mb speed & is charged for me of 20mb speed
Inspite of so many complaints from last 1 month iam continusly complaining to your technical department & many other departments.
Upon investigation by your authorized technician it was revealed to me that the cabinet from which iam geting internet does not support more than 6mb speed & my line is not fiber but you people are charging me for nothing.
I cannot pay 200 riyals for just geting les than 5mb speed
every time your technical team make promises but nothing positive have been done until now
Kindly look int this problem & try solve as soon as possible.
Or cancel my connection without any penalty because this is the mistake from stc for misleading me about the service
My contact number is [protected]

I have experienced the absolute worse service from STC. It has been nearly a month attempting to get Internet for my home. I've given my details to three different "technicians" who failed to pass any of my information along to anyone. Finally, when someone does contact me to install the service three weeks later they cancel the scheduled appointment and push it back for another week (7 days). Today 8/12/16 they finally arrive and simply look into my electrical box and say "oops there is only one port working we cant do anything, it'll take another week". I have lost all confidence in STC the level of incompetence baffles me. I tried calling, I tried explaining it to the technicians, and I've tried patience but unfortunately it is absolutely useless.

Dear STC

 

I recharged my mobile # [protected] on 01-Nov-16, for 5 SAR [500MB] Valid for 7 days. I was using this offer up to 4-Nov-16 around 2.35 pm. At the time of closing it was 4 MB balance and switch off my mobile data. In the same day morning I top-up my mobile with 20 SAR through bank E-payment, for that recharge I got a bonus of 4 SAR also. After seeing my balance it was 23.67SAR+4SAR bonus. Around 2.40pm I checked my balance it shows that I have a balance of 1.70 SAR and the bonus balance was 0.09 SAR.

Immediately I contact the STC representative and asked about this problem and they opened a complaint # 1-[protected]. I got replied on 19-Nov-16 that my complaint has been resolved. After I checked my balance it was 1.70 SAR only, again I called STC and they said you used more than your credit limit it was around 2 minutes and they deduct a sum of 25.88 SAR. I don’t understand about this deduction. Could you please clarify this?

 

About your net charge is good as you are giving 5 SAR for 500MB / week and after you are deducting 2 SAR / MB is not good. Don’t misunderstand me, it’s just like cheating the people. Finally I request you to consider this rate and arrange to get back my balance 25.88 SAR as soon as possible.

Expecting your favorable consideration in this regards.

 

N:B – I request you to send a message about the completion of the net balance and ask the user if they wish to continue with the normal network.

 

Thanks & Regards,
