Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Alabama
Customer Reviews
Katy M.
AT&T Fiber
February 27, 2026 When we first moved in our home, we were told fiber would be installed within a year (or so). Unfortunately it took 4 years before we got fiber. We were stuck with the worst internet imaginable. I did not appreciate the "run-around" for those 4 years regarding the fiber being installed. I'm thankful it's installed now and it's been great. Customer service has been great too. BUT I feel like they strung us along.

June 20, 2023 I love AT&T. They have become very pricey for the average household, but they sell a good product. I will be using them for years to come.
