Mali D | 05-11-2022

The service is slow and not close to the speeds you pay for in this area. They use to be one of the best providers for years, but now their network is not stable and reliable, and the speeds are not even 60 % of what you pay monthly.

Comcast/XFinity uses the "fine print" to scam you out of money. Be sure to read VERY WELL every single document you ever sign with them, even with them on the phone, because they'll take every opportunity to use it against you, and they won't inform you about its content.

Connection can be very unstable, throwing you off the internet. Customer service so far appears to want me to figure out what's wrong because, as every help desk person, knows, the user is the problem.
