AT&T Fiber
July 06, 2025 Overall, AT& T is a good company. I have not had any problems with the service but the price increase for just one line is not great. My bill is over $80 and it's just me on the plan. No bells and whistles - so I am not sure why it is so high.
A Riverdale, GA Customer
XFINITY Cable
August 11, 2024 I personally love my Internet service speed, but I would like it to be a little more cost-effective for an individual person. I do feel that the right I pay is not to me being an individual versus a family. I pay around $125 a month for the highest speed and since I work at home, it does help quite a bit but the cost could be a little more individual/single friendly.

AT&T Fiber
November 02, 2025 I find AT&T to be a good internet provider. I pay 70.00 dollars a month for 300mps. When I was signing up they were giving away 150 dollar gift cards. There isn't too many power outages or disruptions. The signal strength in the house is weaker than Comcast. So if you have a multi-level house, you will need wifi-mesh systems or range extenders.

March 18, 2023 I think the biggest downside of at&t is the speed. They having alot of internet/service outings around my area. As far of calling goes I believe the service is okay in certain areas.
