Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Texas
Customer Reviews
A Houston, TX Customer
AT&T Fiber
April 10, 2026 The fiber connection provided by AT&T is stable and continuously provides the subscribed throughput of 1Gbps (upstream and downstream). The main drawback of the product is not the product itself, but the company that provides it, AT&T. They continually make adjustments to their pricing structure, allow agents to promise things (i.e., 'no additional price adjustments for life') that are not true in order to maintain customers, and provide a customer support experience that is not transparent and very frustrating. A stable, no-gimmicks price would minimize my need to contact customer support. In the months that I don't need to contact customer support I am an extremely pleased customer and grateful for the stable connection.

AT&T Fiber
August 24, 2025 I have been with my internet provider for the past few years and they are generally above average in terms of service quality and pricing/value. I generally think they could do a much much better job integrating the various services I pay for / subscribe to such as my cell phone service and TV service. It’s almost like they treat them like they are entirely separate services which can be annoying when you are trying to get someone on the phone.
