December 06, 2025 While I am pleased overall with our service (mobile, Internet), the price has gone up substantially every year since signing up in 2022. There is no competition in our somewhat isolated area, so I have no bargaining power on the matter. As we are dependent on wireless capabilities for our every day lives, there is nothing to do but pay the bill each month regardless of price increases.

September 02, 2024 I am frustrated with the internet speed at my home using Consolidated Communications. My family has to use multiple extender/boosters in order to receive coverage for the whole house. The speed is often so slow that if more than 2 people are online, the pages/videos won’t load. Upload speed is also frustratingly slow. I also feeling like I’m paying way too much for the service we receive.

September 16, 2026 Service is okay. Fidium customer service is abominable. They told me when I signed up that at the year mark, I could call and keep the same pricing - $67.50 per month. I called, they said it was granted, then they proceeded to bill me $87.50 for the next six months. I called every month, until I finally gave up, paid them the $87.50 and then my bill went to $90. I called to terminate their service in per disgust for this company (to Spectrum for better service, $15 lower a month plus streaming of certain channels). They said I would get a sticker in the mail to return their box - that it would arrive in 5 - 7 days. I got their bill - they charged me for THE FULL MONTH, they did not prorate the bill from the stop date. I called twice - one customer service person said it would be prorated, the second said it would not, the supervisor said that it would be. I am STILL waiting to get their return sticker in the mail. DO NOT sign up with this company - they WILL NOT deliver what they promise, then they put you through heck and high water to fix back to what they promised you originally. I am exceptionally glad to be rid of them!!!

Useless internet/Company.
