September 17, 2025 AT&T has the best service! I have been using them for years without any outages or problems. The app is so easy to use and their customer service is great.
Mama K.
T-Mobile Home Internet Fixed Wireless
August 23, 2025 T-Mobile 5G Home Internet has been a game-changer for my lifestyle. Installation was a breeze—literally plug and play—and the speeds are fast and reliable with zero connection issues. I love that the device is movable, so whether I’m at home, at my office, or hosting an event, I can take my internet with me without any extra hassle. The payment flexibility is also clutch—when I fall behind, I can get on a plan and have my service restored in minutes.
That said, I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the extra fees. Even though they allow payment plans, they still hit you with a $7 late fee, and if you forget to set up a payment plan ahead of time, there’s an additional $20 restoration fee. So while the base is $55/month, I usually end up paying around $62 or more. It’s frustrating to pay penalties when you’re trying to catch up responsibly—but the service itself is honestly excellent.

July 21, 2025 Having the internet is a necessity in todays world. When I need or want to use it, it want it to be working. It is very frustrating when for whatever reason it is down. Besides needing it for using computers and phones, today, so many other household things require a working internet, doorbells, smart tvs etc. Their should be no reason for it not to be working properly. I do feel that the cost of the internet is too high, being that everyone is using it these day, well almost everyone. I think the internet companies can truly still make a profit while offering a lower cost, this would be especially helpful for their long time customers and for our elderly communities.
