August 18, 2026 The service rips people off. been customer for many years,had bad box ,was told to go buy another one .Finally someone came replaced it after many months. Paid for services never didnt get.Company never took charges off.

Optimum Cable
June 01, 2026 Yes. My provider has had a history of poor customer service for years. No matter who happened to buy out the current company and go under a new brand name, the customer service was still severely flawed. But, in the past year, I have noticed that they are finally starting to make great strides in the way that they deal with their customer base. Better late than never, I guess.
