This is the worst internet service Iā€™ve ever had. It is out almost daily which as a work from home employee is super detrimental to my ability to work. There are frequent outages, the internet will drop unexpectedly, and customer service gives you the run around and little to no help. Itā€™s completely unreliable service. I am now switching to another provider so that I can continue to work and do my job from home. AWFUL!

A monopoly that knows it is one. Horrible up and down services constantly happening. Upload speeds are atrocious cant even push powerpoint slides. If ANY company around here was to offer 100+ Mbps I would be gone in a heartbeat

I have had xfinity Internet for several years. Last year they doubled my speed at no additional cost. But a couple weeks ago the area system was down for "improvements". Every day since then, the Internet has had multiple daily outages. Some of these they admit to in text notifications. But when I contact customer service about other times, they refuse to admit it was their system. They keep trying to blame something in my home. But each time it goes out, it mysteriously comes back on without any action of mine. I am sick of the outages and sick of xfinity blaming me instead of being honest.

Xfinity has a firm grip on services in my area. Everytime I have to call about my internet service, it's been during the day, when the house is otherwise empty & I always get the runaround about what could be wrong. I've upped my mpbs, I've changed out my modem, restarted & unplugged everything under the sun, but ALWAYS have to resort to my phone's hotspot in a pinch. If I could switch I would, trust me!!
