Still have a lot of down time. They say 99.9% up time which is not true and only offer $2 a day for compensation... will be switching back to fiber

Spectrum used to be reliable but not anymore. This year alone, they’ve had several major outages and the speeds have been very slow. It seems to be an ongoing problem. We are currently in another outage that’s been going on for 8 hours and counting. I work from home and it’s a huge issue

Service was awful. They came and hooked up internet & phone, forgot to hook up to pole outside. Tried for a month to get someone out to fix. No phone for a month. Still charged us. Price kept going up. Wifi was unreliable.
