Seiontec Systems Shuts Down Lynchburg Internet Service, Leaving Customers With 1-Day Notice
1 articles · Updated · WSET · Jul 7
Summary
An email sent Monday told Seiontec Systems customers the company had ceased operations and permanently closed, abruptly cutting off a high-speed internet provider in the Lynchburg area.
Tuesday calls to the company reached only a voicemail saying Seiontec was no longer able to provide services by phone, while its office appeared empty.
Several customers told ABC13 they were blindsided and are now scrambling to find another provider, though some said their internet was still working for now.
Key questions remain unanswered, including why notice came so late, whether prepaid customers will get refunds, how many users lost service and how many jobs were cut.
