Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Washington
Customer Reviews
Laura J
CenturyLink Fiber
December 01, 2025 Overall we've had a good experience with our provider. When we bought our home it was not wired for fiber, but the company was willing to come out and install it for us, and the process was smooth and easy. We are also in a price for life program such that our internet costs have not gone up since we bought into our plan six years ago. As I see additional fees and charges being introduced for other customers, I am grateful that we have the price for life lock. The only concern at the moment is that our speed is not very fast because our router is outdated. When we had someone out to troubleshoot an outage a couple weeks ago, they recommended that we replace the router with a newer one that would support faster speeds, but if we do that we will lose our price for life guarantee. At the moment our router is meeting our needs, but I'm a little anxious about the cost going up when it eventually fails.

March 01, 2025 Getting set up with Quantum was very easy and straightforward. They delivered what they said they would, when they said they would. There have been a few service outages -- usually at the same time as bad weather in our area -- but those were handled promptly. Recently they increased our monthly bill, and when we called to protest, they placed us on an autopay plan that locks in our rate. This seems a little dubious to me but we didn't want to pay more, so we went with it.

June 30, 2023 I am happy with the internet service I have combined with my cable in the sense that it works well with good speeds. But, I am unhappy with the price because there is a monopoly in my area. There is no other company available in my area, at all so there are never discounts, etc. When I first signed up I got a special "new customer" price but that lasted for a year and then for being loyal, I got screwed and charged more each year.
