October 08, 2024 We have had VTC for several years and have had wonderful service with them the speed is fast and I have 3 teens so streaming is always occurring. We pay roughly $80 a month and have always had reliable internet. Very rarely, will we experience any issue. They work with us on improving service and adjusting to our bill. Very great customer service and honest hard working techs. Glad to be customers of VTC

Sparklight Cable
May 06, 2023 I have had some issues here and there and I especially at the beginning. My grandma passed away and then I had to cancel it through her and put it in my name. They tried to charge us fees for a rental modem she didn't have. I have intermittent connection sometimes and the only way they will help is to charge us for someone to come out. They have in the past and didn't correct the issue and we still got charged.

September 25, 2026 Very poor service. I pay for 12mbs, my speed is consistently below 5mbs, and latency runs up to 1.5 SECONDS at times. Video is buffering every 5 - 10 min for 2 -3 min, web pages load very slowly. I call support and the schedule for 2 - 3 weeks out. When the techs came out, multiple times, they are not able fix or improve the DSL. I have not had dial tone for 2 weeks. Time for a provider change.
