Put in a move services order to move 2 blocks. They canceled my Internet and uverse accounts and after a week and 5 techs coming out they still can't get my internet up and running. I've had a tech sitting in front of my house for over an hour waiting for the office to connect something. I got Cox in the meantime until such time as they get the internet up and running. I've been with ATT since they had cell phones and fiber from ATT since it became available. If they don't fix this tonight I will stay with Cox and take my all of my cell phone lines somewhere else. I will never give them another cent of my business.

Sonia B | 04-21-2015

AT&T usually has great customer service. I have not been disappointed in that aspect. Pricing and speed are a different story. The internet speed is okay, most of the time. I don't think it is worth the price though, especially if you are not bundling. I stream videos, I would say, an average amount. A good bit (not all) of the time, the videos I'm streaming will stall and/or take a long time to load at times. Very annoying, especially since I don't have many devices connect to the internet all at once. I have the mid line internet that should be more than enough for my needs.

I do like Cox although I do have problems with the internet stopping..a lot. I continue with Cox because they do have good customer service and anytime I have a problem they are more then helpful. But I hate how I feel like I am always on the phone with them or need to call them.
