February 11, 2023 Xfinity can be a bit pricey at times, but they overall have really good service. The speeds are fast and the connection is usually very reliable without interruptions. I've been with this company for the last 5 years at my current place of residence and have not had any long outage since I moved in. All of my family members also have xfinity and have nothing bad to say about them aside from the price. Overall, I would say they are a pretty good internet company, and are pretty much everywhere in the U.S.
