XFINITY Cable
September 05, 2025 I have had xfinity/comcast forever. I keep it because I don't want to change my email address. The pricing is bundled with my cable for my tv, and every couple of years I have to call to get a better deal, as they raise the prices regularly.
Mike G
Ziply Fiber
March 16, 2025 I'm pretty happy with our internet provider, Ziply Fiber, and have been a customer for more than 10 years. The fiber network in my area was originally owned by a company called Frontier, but Ziply took over the business a few years ago. We have the basic tier, which is already quite fast (I think it's 500 megabit speed), more than enough for a family of three who are all online frequently. We used to be Comcast (XFinity) customers, but I grew weary of the constant incremental price hikes; furthermore Comcast has a data cap of 1 TB per month for the standard consumer package, whereas Ziply has no data caps. I can't imagine how we would have gotten through the pandemic years under Comcast's data cap given how much we were all online. Additionally, we subscribe to Ziply's international phone package, which allows for 300 minutes of international phone calls per month for a reasonable price. I've learned from friends that fiber internet in our region is not an option for all local residents, so I consider us lucky to have the choice of using it. Overall we're quite happy with Ziply's service and pricing, and are unlikely to switch providers in the forseeable future.

XFINITY Cable
November 08, 2024 I have been with Xfinity on & off for decades but often not by choice as they are the only provider available in many areas. They lure you in with new customer deals but then quickly jack up the prices & seem to have no concern about customer retention. Calling customer service is a chore. They are generally unhelpful & aggressively push bundling packages. If I could choose any other provider I would.

Ziply Fiber
August 11, 2024 We switched to Ziply due to the inflexibility in Comcast pricing and packages. Since switching we have had reliable service and affordable pricing.

XFINITY Cable
May 01, 2023 I have been with Comcast for decades. It seems like trouble to change. I don't want to pay more for the newer, faster service. I should explore other options, but I have not done so yet. I know that there must be better options.
