The customer service is alright, they need some improvements on it. Overall they are a great service & the speeds are great, I hope we will get Xfinity Fiber in my area soon or update the DOCSIS in my area to get better upload & download speeds. If they have an outage they get onto it the right way & get it fixed before the end of the day. If you have a problem with your internet they will fix it as best as they can over the phone or if you have problems with your speed or not getting what you want they fix that as best as they can, if you still have problems on it they try another way to fix it.

We have had Comcast for years. For the most part the fee stays the same though it seems a bit high for internet service. One time they called and offered to bundle the package to save on the monthly bill. We still had satellite for TV. At one point they sent equipment because of the bundle situation. We tried to return it to the cable office which was a huge hassle because of the location since we had satellite TV. We no longer "bundle" but pay a bit more for just internet. We rarely have interruptions and it seems to work rather quickly.

Our internet is just fine but would consider another for a cheaper price. Something faster would be best.

Methodology

HighSpeedInternet.com compares internet providers within cities and metro areas to give customers the most relevant insights into their internet options. When comparing providers, we consider the following:

  • Provider coverage areas 
  • Advertised speeds 
  • Real-world speeds (speed test data) 
  • Customer feedback
  • Other relevant localized data

We source localized coverage data displayed on our coverage maps from the FCC coverage database, which is updated every six months. For the most current summary of providers in your area, we recommend you use our zip code search tool, which offers the most recent coverage data straight from internet service providers (ISPs).

Our city overviews compare advertised provider speeds. We may also include real-world speed data gathered from millions of annual speed test results. To process our speed test data, we first filter out outliers and providers with low test counts. We then calculate speed averages with every ISP subject to the same parameters.

We gather ISP customer feedback data from our comprehensive annual surveys and direct customer feedback submitted to HighSpeedInternet.com. Unless stated otherwise, average ratings are calculated nationally.
