They have very good customer service at their stores/in-person, however when trying to get serviced on the phone you may be waiting a long time and get scammed. When on the phone we were told lies that you could easily go online and see were false. The internet service is fast and reliable, but the relationships are hard. I would say it's a fair price for the internet cost.
