Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Georgia
Customer Reviews
A Canton, GA Customer
Point Broadband Fiber
May 19, 2026 I really liked them at first but as someone who puts their internet speeds to the test it's not the best. I personally stream and sometimes it would randomly drop for a split second causing everything to go down. We also were originally paying for the 500 up/down but we were only getting 300 up/down for a while. They actually were not even able to give us the 500 and had to drop our price since they were unable to stop the throttle. This was after several technicians were sent out as well. It also used to go down almost nightly and several times a night but as of the last 6 months it rarely goes down.

XFINITY Cable
June 21, 2023 I think that my provider charges too much for the service I have. My speeds don't seem to be as fast as I would like. I don't like that it drops out as much as it does when I'm trying to get work done at home. I have five people in my home and I reach my limit of data almost every time and get charged even more, which I definitely don't like after already paying so much.

Windstream DSL
April 30, 2023 Windstream is the only internet provider that we can get in the specific part of the neighborhood we live in. Windstream is very slow and there are often power outages when there is only slight bad weather. We are paying the same amount for slow speeds that other providers are charging for faster speeds. It feels as though we are being taken advantage of because we have no other options for internet providers. The only positive thing I can say is that their support team over the phone has been helpful the times that I have called.
