Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Texas
Customer Reviews
Kara T.
Verizon Fiber
February 04, 2026 I recently started working from home and I had no idea how important reliable, high-speed internet was. I was happy that my boyfriend found such a great price on our internet service and I did not take into account the issues we may have. Although it is not always poor quality and we don't frequently have issues it is enough to consider changing either the plan or companies.

GVTC Fiber
November 25, 2025 5G is not close to 5G, services goes down or get really unusably slow at least once a month. Sad thing is it’s either this or StarLink so we’re stuck with GVTC-Maybe
Brian M
Spectrum Cable
March 25, 2025 I have had the same provider for 10 years. Spectrum Cable and Internet have been decent as far as reliability. The only times I feel that it is not working well is when it is a Holiday and more people are in their households, or during storms. It is quite expensive when considering other options, but we have just come numb to its cost for ease of use.
