XFINITY Cable

John J
XFINITY Cable
October 14, 2024 We previously used AT&T internet for many years (not the new AT&T fiber). During the COVID lockdown, we weren't able to get functional internet speeds, so we looked in to switching. We spent hours on the phone with AT&T. They sent technicians out, but they assured us nothing was wrong. However, the internet was not functional in our home (especially with all of us working from home). We tried to get them to send a new router because we they wouldn't allow us to use a non-AT&T router, but they refused. After several months of frustration, we switched to Xfinity wireless. We've been pleased with them. I know there are faster speeds available in our area, and AT&T fiber is now available...but we are very hesitant to try AT&T again.

July 03, 2024 my internet service is adequate in terms of speed and the customer experience, however the pricing would seem to indicate some superfast or premium service. my opinion the service is at least 25% too high, and their subscriptions and bundled offerings are needlessly complex and confusing.

June 28, 2023 Our area was recently upgraded from cable to fiber internet. We were not unhappy with our cable internet, but this fiber connection we have now is even better. The upgrade was seamless; the tech came in and ran the line, set up the new modem and helped me with configuring some equipment that needed to be altered due to the new connection. I tried to give him a few dollars and he wouldn't take it. I am very happy with the AT&T fiber internet and highly recommend it if you have the opportunity to make the change.
