XFINITY Cable
March 20, 2026 Comcast Xfinity has huge lines in their stores when it comes time to return equipment which ought to be a straigh forward process. They are also great at ensuring high prices in areas where they are a monopoly. Initial contract terms have low rates, but once the initial contract expires, they set high prices with little recourse.

October 15, 2025 I'm fairly happy with the speed and introductory pricing of xfinity, but I've caught them trying to sneak in extra charges a few times now. Two months ago, they tried to raise my monthy rate to over $100 a month when I signed up to pay $40. I never had this problem with verizon. The only reason I didnt switch over is because I needed to have internet for a zoom interview and I was able to negotiate the rate back down. The responsibility shouldn't be on me to make sure xfinity holds up their end of the deal every month. Especially when customer service is horrible and I'm on autopay.

Verizon Fiber
June 07, 2023 Before gettingVerios fios, we had another provider. During an ice storm many trees fell and we lost internet , tv and phone for several days. The underground cables have been much more consistant. Onedownfall is they had to dig a small trench in our yard to install the calbes. Also verizonwebsite is not easy to navigate. It is very confusing if you want to compare packages and prices.

May 31, 2023 I just recently switched speed tiers. I was getting 100Mbps for $50. I then found out I could be getting 300Mbps for $45! So I switched, but it would have been nice for them to present that option to me instead of me having to find it.

March 24, 2023 The mobile app and the channel guide is well designed. The DVR is also easy to use and intuitive. The price for the channels you get is ridiculous though. I pay over $200 a month and I don't even get all of the channels I see in the guide.
