    There is one serious problem with the standard 5-point rating scale, and My Computer Guy is a…read moreperfect example of the problem. He deserves at least 7 stars, maybe eight! He is professional. He is friendly. HE is VERY knowledgable. He removed the center monitor from my three screen set up. He replaced it with a new top of the line Lenovo with windows 11, a built in webcam, etc. He loaded Windows 11, reconfigures the three monitor setup. He cheked it all out to ensure everything was working perfectly. We said goodbye and he went his way. Then...the next day he sent me an eMail just to confirm that everything was still working 100%--(which is was, and still is). Whenever I need onsite tech services I never consider calling anyone other than My Computer Guy. Doesn't that sound like a seven on the five-point scale? Yeah, I thought so too.

    After about 5 years of living in a Lennar-built "smart house", I was finally done with what they…read moredid to make it start. I learned that my internet comes in from the outside, to my router, to a switch, and then to the access points throughout the house. This is the setup for businesses, colleges, etc, and not really for the home users (which must be why Lennar changed to a different setup now). For the most part, it would work seamlessly, however, once every few months, something would go wrong and it would take me a day or two (of luck) to get it running away. I was sick of it and wanted a system more like a home user even if that meant a downgrade with how it worked. I contacted My Computer Guy for an SOS, and he replied immediately. He asked for more details about what I could let me know and we made an appointment a few days later due to my schedule. On the day of, My Computer Guy showed up and was very polite, proper, and professional. Also, ironically, my internet/wifi died after our initial conversation. If Tom had one goal, it was to, at least, get my wifi back. Happy wifi, happy wife, and then I have a happy life. We both headed to the basement so he could troubleshoot the issues. To me, it was just a bunch of wires connecting somewhere, someplace. He figured it out right away and started to troubleshoot the system. He would share some tips to improve my wifi/internet. After about 30 minutes, give or take, he found the problem, fixed the problem, and helped me install a normal user-friendly wifi system. Also, he gave me some recommendations to improve the overall system and helped me set it up. Overall, I would rate this business an A+. Friendly, professional, prompt, and very knowledgeable. Will continue to contact in the future for other IT-related issues and more.

    The service was actually pretty good, but the price kept going up and when I called to try to get a…read morereduction, they said no way. Even though I pointed out that my neighbor was paying half what they were charging me (also Astound, same speed) and xfinity would charge me 1/3. "We may charge different customers different amounts." "We don't price match." I didn't want to switch, and it was utterly frustrating that they would do this to a long term customer. It was like I had a note in my file, 'stick it to this guy.' Or maybe they just stick it to everyone dumb enough to stay with them. Of course when I called to cancel they said, "Can we offer you a better price?" Makes my blood boil.

    Our WIFI went down during a storm. We had no WIFI for three days until they could come out here…read morewith a tech guy. The guy came and claimed he fixed it. It works, with a catch. It is now slower than it ever has been, freezes up all the time. Can't even sit through a 22 minute TV show without lagging or stopping. This is pathetic and unacceptable in the year 2026. If you can, look elsewhere and use anyone else but Astound! We sent them another email and phone call to get ahold of someone to come back to our house to fix yet another problem they made happen. So far, no such luck. They're value is nothing and they are most incompetent. So again they may seem good, but they're awful. They don't have any places located near us and have to come from far away, so I imagine their tech guys are very limited to when they can come. Another example of why big companies shouldn't be able to buy up the little ones like WOW, which was actually a good cable company that we had no problems at all with. Like every other company, there customer service seems to be a thing of the past. We will be switching to a different company as soon as possible and never looking back. Fuck Astound.
