January 02, 2026 Xfinity was able to get my internet hooked up very quickly compared to other companies. They also had a price that you can be locked in for 5 years. I thought that was nice since everything is going up so high these days. They also had competitive prices and a little lower in some ways.

December 22, 2025 The price for my internet could be cheaper, it's already high and they are going to be raising it soon. However I have no complaints about the speed. We have several devices all being used at the same time and the speed never drops, it's pretty much instantaneous. I also have to say that it is very reliable, we lose internet very briefly only a few times a year.
