Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in New Hampshire
Customer Reviews
A Manchester, NH Customer
Fidium Fiber
February 18, 2026 They did do a wonderful job making sure that some damage during installation was covered when I had to get it fixed (accidentally drilled a hole through my power cable coming from the street). The technician was very professional and apologetic, and also personable to talk to. He didn't get defensive or try to wave it away; he knew it was severe damage and immediately got in touch with his boss. The process was relatively easy, I had the electrician who came later call them for the invoice. That alone is excellent customer service, and I can forgive a lot of other minor nonsense if they can be that honest with me. The only snag I've had since then is their app is a bit of a pain to use sometimes, having difficulty connecting to my network with it.

September 02, 2025 I like the reliability of Xfinity. They have improved their customer service and tech support over the years. I would like faster internet, but I appreciate the fact that they have lower price packages. I have a lower prices package and just knowing that I can save 20 dollars a month is nice.

June 05, 2024 We switched to fidium because of the pricing of our last provider. We have had them over a year and haven’t had any issues directly with it.
