Wire 3
November 12, 2026 I have been trying for MONTHS to get service from Wire3 and it has been a nightmare. I kept asking for an installation date and today I find out that my property is listed as private property and they need to get permission from someone to install the service. Two things. 1.) Why was I not told that a long time ago, I would have made sure it was taken care of. I have lived here for over 14 years and I am 1000% sure they would not have an issue with me having Wire3 Internet. 2.) I have a wired cable service into my apartment so Wire3 could very easily follow the same line in and I would have service. Why do they need to get permission to do something someone else has already done? I cancelled the installation, not that it matters because I probably would never have receive an installation date anyway.
