XFINITY Cable
September 25, 2025 One of my biggest complaints about my current ISP isn't necessarily their fault. The issue that I have is that there are no other real options for truly high speed broadband. While there are some cellular options, and even some satellite options, there really isn't anything else that competes with Xfinity in our area. With the dependence upon broadband for work from home, children's online activities, and nearly everything being online with smart home items, the need for high speed broadband is critical. I would love to see some sort of competition in the market to help keep prices competitive. If I had to make a single concern about Xfinity specifically, it would be that I had to go to their highest level of service in order to get unlimited data. I found myself going over the data caps frequently, and the only answer was to upgrade to the highest level of service. With streaming services now the norm, I don't think data caps should be a thing. We went through the same thing with minutes on cell phones. Stop limiting people!
