September 14, 2024 Lumos provided a service in my area that was currently being dominated by Spectrum. Spectrum having a little bit of competition in the area was good for everyone because the service that we used to get from spectrum seemed to get worse the more they increased the price.. I havexhad Lumos for over a year and I have had 1 outage, and that is way better than my previous ISP.

September 25, 2023 I have had them for 7+ years and only had one issue. I was able to call their service number and they had the issue fixed within the hour. The agent was very friendly and helpful. I only have internet from them after cancelling TV. They have never tried to push other services on me and my price has hardly increased since signing up.
