April 29, 2025 I'm not happy with my Internet provider. I can't even use it at home. It is garbage.

XFINITY Fiber
September 21, 2024 Xfinity has been an excellent internet service provider in terms of balancing cost and speed. I pay $55 a month for 500 mbps, and my partner and I never go over our data allowance. The internet speed is very consistent, enough that my partner's online gaming never lags. The $55/month is a reduced rate for 2 years, but I move frequently so I don't have to worry about the increase in price after the 2 years are up. The two times that we've lost service, Xfinity gave us mobile updates on how they were working to fix the outage, and it was restored relatively quickly. The downside to Xfinity is that their website is not very user friendly. It is difficult to find the details of your plan or to figure out where to go in order to change your plan. Also, their phone service wasn't very helpful; I called to try to transfer my service to my new address and it was taking the guy so long that I hung up to go to the bathroom, and he never called back like he said he would. Overall, as long as you don't have a reason to deal with customer service, Xfinity is a great service provider.

August 14, 2024 The internet works fine but is nothing special. The cost seems high but that is how everything is now. Mediocre service for a high price. I have had to call a few times when service went out and they did help in a cheerful manner.
