Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Maryland

XFINITY Fiber
December 02, 2025 My internet provider, Xfinity, is not very satisfactory but they have a monopoly on my area. My internet frequently goes out without warning and there is often scheduled maintenance that also leaves my area without internet. As far as their pricing, it is decent as long as you use your own router and call in order to renegotiate when your contract is set to increase. I will say that I like their app and their customer service has always been very good when I call. The service representatives are polite, prompt and helpful. I never have any issues with their bill auto pay.

June 16, 2023 It is decent speed but the cost seems to continually go up each year and I'm not sure what my other options are.

November 12, 2026 Fair, but occasionally spotty, especially with rainstorms. Low ratings are based as much on my dissatisfaction with their sometimes confusing website and difficulty in determining exactly how much it would cost me to change my current plan.

July 13, 2026 Right now it kinda sucks. I mean it just seems slow for just under $70/mth.
