Subject: [AFMUG] BaiCells Class Action Investigation
http://www.baicellsclassaction.com
WHO DOES THIS INVESTIGATION AFFECT?
Companies and Persons who purchased BaiCells Atom R9 CPEs (EG7035,
CW0100, CN6671) between inception and February of 2020.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
Investigation is taking place regarding allegations that BaiCells made
promises beginning as far back as 2016 regarding the Atom R9 CPEs
(EG7035, CW0100, CN6671) that these CPEs would be compliant with and
usable with the new FCC CBRS rules without needing to swap out any
hardware or buy new equipment. Many Internet Service Providers
purchased this equipment, investing hundreds of thousands of dollars,
based on numerous promises made in official public forums and
documentation to this affect.
Around the beginning of February (and with only 60 days to the final
CBRS transition period) BaiCells informed all ISPs that the Atom R9
CPEs (EG7035, CW0100, CN6671) would not be CBRS compatible due to
reasons that BaiCells has not explained.
BaiCells then offered a swap offer giving 50% off MSRP.
Internet Service Providers argue that such provisions at the 11th hour
of the FCC CBRS rule changes, coupled with supply shortages due to the
large about of radios that Internet Service Providers will need to
purchase, the CoronaVirus supply chain shortages, and the need to visit
every customer physically and swap radios will produce an undue hardship
on them as well as render the need to purchase additional equipment
after investing thousands of dollars based on promises made by official
BaiCells representatives.
