AT&T Fixed Wireless
April 27, 2023 I am very satisfied with my internet provider. AT&T has very good customer service and really cares about us as customers. They offer us many perks and gave us a free HBO 6 month subscription and continue to provide more deals the longer we stay. AT&T has also upgraded our internet for us for free when they had a mistake on their part. Overall, the satisfaction and customer service provided by AT&T is extraordinary.

October 06, 2026 I have always had good service through Geus. The only problem I have is with your high late payment price. You give us just one day, this month I will have to pay over $20 for being late by only one day. Most places will give you a five day grace period but not Geus. My own pay date is always the second Wednesday of each month being on social security my pay date changes each month. So I can't always pay on exact date you require. It's hard to have to pay like a $20 late fee for seniors on social security. You should change it to five days grace period instead of just one day late. Please change this.
