Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Minnesota
Customer Reviews
A Minneapolis, MN Customer
CenturyLink Fiber
May 16, 2026 Scott G
XFINITY Cable
April 13, 2026 I've had some frustration with Comcast in terms of their pricing. I've been a customer for about five years and they regularly raise their rates. As far as I can tell, these rate changes happen arbitrarily and without notice. Though the service has been good and consistent, I feel like they're just incrementally up-charging their customers. They likely feel they can get away with it since there are not many other competing internet providers in the area, and the one who do exist don't have the same infrastructure as Comcast does.

CenturyLink Fiber
March 28, 2026 Overall our CenturyLink fiber internet service has been very good. Outages are very rare, perhaps one or two times per year at most. Speed is excellent. At peak usage, we are are streaming on 3 different devices at once, and do not experience any slowdown. We pay $80 a month for our service
A Minneapolis, MN Customer
US Cellular Fixed Wireless
February 27, 2026 USInternet misled our condo association. They started by giving the entire building "free" installation with the "option" of singing up for their services. Then, once they were in, they convinced the board to FORCE their services upon all of us. Therefore, I have to use them (a monopoly in our building now). To make matters worse, they destroyed the dry wall in my unit when they installed the fiber jack. I have contacted USInternet many times to simply inquire about the possibility of repairing my drywall. They decline to even respond every time. Be very careful when dealing with this company.

US Cellular Fixed Wireless
February 12, 2026 They've been super solid. Speed and reliability have been great. I don't believe I've had more than an outage of less than 30 minutes in the 2 years or so that the service has been live in my place. Their pricing has been solid for the 1Gig speed, though I wouldn't argue with a speed bump to the 2.5Gig level at the same price. With Comcast offering such, it may be time for them to consider bumping their speeds. It'd also be nice if their citywide WiFi was included for fiber customers. But all-around, it's been great.
