Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Utah

Heather L
XFINITY Cable
January 30, 2026 Xfinity has been my internet provider through several different apartments now, so I have experienced many different types of internet packages with them. I have had control over my own plan and found in those situations I was much more capable of negotiating my price and finding deals and discounts to get my plan at a better deal. In apartments where the internet has come in a bundle deal, obviously we have less control over our pricing and plan choice, but I also find this ends up being worse internet at a much higher price. Now that I am moving back to a place where I will have full control of my internet plan again, I will not be choosing xfinity mainly because of my bad experience last time, where I paired my mobile plan with my internet plan (because they had convinced me it would get me all kinds of discounts) but then when I found a cheaper mobile plan and wanted to switch, xfinity started charging me a 25$/month fee for not having a mobile plan with them. I tried to ask what the difference was between me being only an internet customer and me being a previous mobile+internet customer, but I was never able to get the fee lifted. I worry even if I was to go back to set up internet again with them they may still charge me that fee for having a mobile plan once upon a time. (I sincerely hope my survey can still be accepted even though I went over the allocated time to type this up, and my apologies for not keeping an eye on the time.)

CenturyLink Fiber
June 24, 2023 I think that Centurylink is a decent service, for the most part. It's their customer service and knowledge that lacks for me. It feels like whenever I have a problem, the resolution only comes after multiple attempts (on my part) at fixing it. I often get talked to like I'm stupid, and I feel misunderstood. Lots of call transfers, all of that jazz. It's just such a hassle when there's problems.
