I have never had such bad service in the store and on the phone. It takes hours to get anything accomplished on the phone. The stores you stand in line and no on acknowledged me at all. Your processes take too long. You charge too much. The guide on the tv is always on the small guide. Just too much for all the money I pay!!

Spectrum steals $95 plus $20 taxes from you for watching a tv a month or $14,000 a year, they refuse to eliminate a phone you never use because the rest of your bundle will increase. Spectrum is the worst company in the world, run for your life and never hire them

U-verse is horrid. Speed is slow, disconnects often, pixel-ated TV, especially during prime time. You'll regret it.

Frontier purchased Verizon in our area. The transition was difficult but we were patient to give Frontier a chance to do their job after all the changes. We pay for the highest speed internet and don't get even a quarter of the speed daily. The service is intermittent. The customer service is located overseas and is difficult to understand. I have been on the phone with them for over 5 hours in the last few months with no resolution. We are paying full price and they are not providing what they promised. We are disappointed and will be switching providers as soon as we can.

Continued service drops and notification by apps and streaming services of NO internet connection; worsening with time. Sold higher level plan (at higher cost) than was available in our neighborhood based on the technology at the time.
