ting Fiber

ting Fiber
December 11, 2024 We switched internet companies about 3 years ago when it was becoming apparent that our connection had to be reliable for our remote jobs. My husband and I both work from home and were noticing issues with our cable provider that caused several disruptions to our work day. Although fiber was more expensive, we took the leap and have only encountered minor hiccups with connection in 3 years. Our internet is consistently blazing fast! We don’t have to deal with constant outages anymore and the customer service has been wonderful. We are incredibly happy with fiber internet and love our provider.

ting Fiber
August 15, 2024 My ISP is a pretty local, small ISP. They have great customer service and always come to the house with a smile. Every interaction I have had with Ting has been positive. Internet outages are rare. The two mugs given upon installation of the fiber are top notch and excellent to drink out of. The fiber internet is fast and can handle all of our streaming and gaming needs. We love it!

Spectrum Cable
May 12, 2023 We are content with our internet service and speed. We continue to be unhappy with the pricing continuing to rise substantially. New customers are consistently offered a significantly lower rate, while long time customers are not rewarded for remaining customers. This causes customers to continue to have to switch services.
A Apex, NC Customer
Spectrum Cable
July 17, 2025 Overall, I’m not satisfied with the quality of service that I receive from spectrum. The rates keep increasing, but the quality of service is stagnant at best. Sometimes it feels as if it’s getting worse, with service frequently dropping unless I’m using an Ethernet cable. Considering I’m using top of the line internet in terms of speed (according to them), I don't believe that I’m receiving top of the line care. I’d be happy to switch to Google fiber, but unfortunately it’s not available in my area as of this time. Hopefully in the future! I’d be happy to switch.
