Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Kansas
Customer Reviews
A Pleasanton, KS Customer
Craw-Kan Telephone Cooperative Fiber
April 18, 2025 I like my internet provider, because they have really good internet speed. It can be hard to find a company that has good internet speed for the price. I will also say that the customer service is amazing. Customer service is important when you sign up for a company. I love how they care for their customers and they try to help you with your problems that you may have. I would honestly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a good internet provider.
Jess G.
Craw-Kan Telephone Cooperative Fiber
March 29, 2025 I would rate Craw Kan internet service as middle of the line. It works but it can be rather frustrating sometimes. There will be periods where the Internet is not working though they are very brief. The farther you are away from the router provided by craw Kan the slower the wifi is, even when still inside the home if your on one side of the house the wifi barely works. I have not compared many prices on services as Craw Kan has a monopoly in the area but I believe the fees to be very high.
Caelan C.
US Cellular Fixed Wireless
August 23, 2024 I do like it much better than Hughes net satelite internet. Which was horrible. The options where I live are very limited. This gets me by but is far from ideal. Speed is not great and there is a speed throttle after a certain amount of gigs which I think is ridiculous today.
A Pleasanton, KS Customer
Craw-Kan Telephone Cooperative Fiber
July 31, 2024 My Internet carrier provides service for several rural counties in Kansas. It is a co-op and really is a horrible provider. They make us have a landline phone for around $35 extra a month or we can't get internet or cable services. They are very rude to customers, they are slow when you call them for help or questions. They do not let customers know of any discounts or new services available. They also fight against larger companies servicing the area.
Ed S.
Peoples Telecommunications DSL
March 25, 2024 I pay $135 per month for 100Mbs service. I'm located in a very rural town and internet options are very limited. Although I feel I'm paying to much their customer service is outstanding.
