Hey @Complaint111
We don't accept in-store returns because of the pandemic. When you cancelled your service, you should have received an email with instructions on how to return it by mail. You would need to follow these instructions to return it.

Hi I forgot to return my modem now food charged me 250$. With my moving tension I forgot. How can I return the modem? I called customer service they said 30 days already passed. But I couldn't get any reminders. This is very stressful.

Hi,
I am in a similar situation, I wasn't able to return it within 5 days due to my move and Covid. Return date was July 3rd or 4th, can someone please help me with this to avoid the charge. I can return the box as soon as July 13th, tomorrow.

Hey there @gkisana
No worries,we can assure you that the charge will be reversed as soon as we receive the modem.With that said, does the charge already appear on your invoice?
Also, what return method did you choose when deactivating your home internet service? A 5 day window is usually provided when the modem return is done at a store. However, due to COVID-19, return options have been limited to courrier as much as possible.
Just so we're on the same page, have you received an return package (box + waybill) so you can mail back the modem?
Let us know, and you can always reach out to us on these channels for immediate assistance.
