Spectrum internet review

Spectrum provides cable or fiber internet, depending on where you live. The cable internet performance is reliable, based on my tests, but the post-promo price hikes and general cost increases may push you to look elsewhere.

Pros

Rent-free modem or gateway

No data caps

No contracts

Cons

WiFi and WiFi Pod fees

Limited fiber availability

Price hikes after promo period

(5/5) • Carrie S

Nick helped me reconnect my internet service and he was great! I have never had such a wonderful experience with a Spectrum customer service rep before. I can’t believe it. He actually met all my needs and with a great price. He is a keeper and your other customer service reps could learn a thing or two from him. Keep up the great work Nick!!!! Thank you!!!

(5/5) • Bob A

Excellent response from technician Jamie this past week. He was tied up at a previous job and let us know a couple of times that he was running late but still coming. Arrived to see a line down and potentially difficult fix. He figured out what to do temporarily and arranged for a permanent fix to happen. Pleasant and easy to work with.

(5/5) • Athena L

Called to pay a bill and Deanne was fantastic! She explained everything so thoroughly and helped me through all of my account confusion. We laughed and joked and it was so refreshing! She knows her stuff and deserves a raise! Thank you for everything Deanne. Praying I always get her on the phone anytime I need help!

Once initial install in area was complete and everything settled down, service has been good. Great service team helping to get everything dialed in.

Spectrum internet and TV bundles

You can pair Spectrum Internet with Spectrum TV and Spectrum Mobile services. The number of services you bundle determines the promotional period length and the discount you’ll receive on internet during that period. Take a look:

  • Internet only = 12 months
  • Internet + TV = 24 months
  • Internet + Mobile = 24 months
  • Internet + TV + Mobile = 36 months

Your TV options may include TV Basic, TV Select Signature, TV Select Plus, TV Choice, and Mi Plan Latino, depending on where you live. Spectrum TV Stream and TV Stream Latino are two other “lite” TV services that complement the Xumo Stream Box. You don’t necessarily need the Xumo to stream any Spectrum TV service, as they can be viewed through the Spectrum TV app or a web browser.

How Spectrum compares to the competition

Spectrum’s biggest competitors are AT&T, Verizon, and Frontier, which all provide fiber and some DSL internet in areas that overlap Spectrum’s cable and fiber internet service areas.

The big callout here is Spectrum offers a reduced rate for new internet customers. The rate increases after the first, second, or third year, depending on whether you bundle or not. The competition doesn’t have promotional pricing, so you know exactly what you pay for on the first day of service.
