Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Maine

Caitlyn B.
Fidium Fiber
April 21, 2025 We were recently approached by Fidium to be part of a neighborhood install. After having Spectrum with poor service for many years, we decided it was time to switch. We were offered 1G of speed for $89.00 a month for the first year, and were advised to call towards the end of that year to keep said price point. I really appreciated the suggestion to call to keep our good rate because it made me feel like the technician really valued how strict budgets can be for people. They offered a set up appointment on a Sunday between 3 and 5 pm, which provided me with the sense that the company understands the needs of their customers may vary, and are willing to meet those needs. Following installation, we have had no service interruptions like we had experienced with previous providers, and have found our speeds to be greatly improved. I would give the service a 5/5; based on our usage and customer service experiences. I would give their pricing a 4/5; while I do pay less than I had previously, I do find that nearly $100/mo. is more than I'd like to pay.

March 01, 2023 They are the worst internet provider, and I have a horrible history with them. Technical problems are a regular occurrence. So is poor customer support. I hate being a Spectrum customer but they are the only provider in my area that offers internet. I think they get away with charging more than is appropriate for poor service because they have a monopoly on cable.

September 16, 2026 Service is okay. Fidium customer service is abominable. They told me when I signed up that at the year mark, I could call and keep the same pricing - $67.50 per month. I called, they said it was granted, then they proceeded to bill me $87.50 for the next six months. I called every month, until I finally gave up, paid them the $87.50 and then my bill went to $90. I called to terminate their service in per disgust for this company (to Spectrum for better service, $15 lower a month plus streaming of certain channels). They said I would get a sticker in the mail to return their box - that it would arrive in 5 - 7 days. I got their bill - they charged me for THE FULL MONTH, they did not prorate the bill from the stop date. I called twice - one customer service person said it would be prorated, the second said it would not, the supervisor said that it would be. I am STILL waiting to get their return sticker in the mail. DO NOT sign up with this company - they WILL NOT deliver what they promise, then they put you through heck and high water to fix back to what they promised you originally. I am exceptionally glad to be rid of them!!!
