A Memphis, TN Customer

XFINITY Cable

4 of 5 stars May 20, 2026

I can say my internet connection is quite good most of the time. When streaming, using Browse and working at home, it performs satisfactorily. The speeds tend to be good enough to support several devices without much lag. However, sometimes I really get frustrating moments like sometimes I experienced minor pacing issues, particularly during rush hours, evenings or when I am speeding to watch something in 4K or on high priority video calls, which is very frustrating. Also outages do occur a few times yearly but they are not very frequent, and can last anything between a couple of minutes to a couple of hours, which is always inconvenient. The experience with customer service has been different. There are times you really find super nice reps that are quick to solve any issue, and there are times it really seems like you am talking to a robot, and trying to get clarity or another help solution can be difficult. Prices also appear to slowly go up with time and it feels like I have to be prepared to be adding my internet bills everytime.
