So. Flash forward 7 months we had an issue with billing our hero Keith unfortunately was no longer at the location to assist us with the monthly billing that he set up after days of calls and going back and forth to store we were told our plan price was higher and there was nothing they could do about it. We are not happy. Very frustrating as we had a plan price that was affordable and now it's not. And we were told now we're in a two year contract for a higher rate! We are reasonable prudent people and we're given the runaround and not treated like we are valued customers. Feels like a monopoly and as there's no other option for service in our area- with kids not only do we have a budget but need to have service. I know we're not alone in this cable/internet business... read more

I rarely leave one-star reviews, but this experience with Cox absolutely deserves it. I had a legitimate and justified reason to be upset with their service, yet I was given the runaround on the phone with no real solutions. When I calmly asked for the legal department's contact information, a completely reasonable and lawful request, the store rep immediately asked me to leave. Let me be clear: I remained calm throughout the entire interaction, despite having every reason not to. I am a high-paying customer with multiple properties under Cox service, and instead of being helped, I was threatened with removal and even the cops. This is not just unprofessional, it's outrageous. When employees would rather threaten customers than attempt to resolve issues, something is very wrong. That rep should not be in customer service. read more

Whereas I don't necessarily love Cox, this location was great about switching out a box and a router for me.

Both bad and good service here, feel a little bit on the fence. Located inside an appliance store, a little hard to figure out where to go at first. Then just follow the Big Ass signs to Cox. Looks like Cox sublets a room in this appliance store. Found the Cox counter then promptly ignored for many minutes by both "manager type man"and "young girl in training ". Manager was attempting to train new girl hire on how to help existing customer. But in the process did not greet us, did not acknowledge us or say "I'll be right with you". We are standing around feeling uncomfortable. New customer comes in behind us, manager greets him immediately "did you find the cable?" Apparently guy had been there earlier and came back for more help. Now manager finally says to us "I'll be right with you'". Finally our turn, done in 3 minutes since my husband had preordered on line. Got to the house and don't have the right adapter. Guess we're off to Target? read more

Cox Authorized Retailer - Double business - Television Service Providers Near Me - San Clemente, California

Went in to finally cut the cord Got attitude from a salesman when I complained that the $135 for internet was way too expensive and that I could get the same service from T-Mobile for $50. Told me that it's my responsibility to check the price and that they also sell internet service for $50. Great way to keep a customer. How about you offer me that service BEFORE I switch. Then has the nerve to " dismiss " me by saying " this discussion is over " You're right ..... It's over ! Cox will never see another dime of my money !!!!! read more

Easy breezy, returning our equipment here. Their service was always fine, we had just moved out of the area. Friendly employees, efficient service. read more

This location is in the back of an appliance store but usually not too busy. I've been a customer for many years. The service is expensive but good. (Gigabit internet). I didn't need my phone service so had it cancelled. Asked if there were any promotions for me and got a discount (? Loyalty) for 2 years. read more

I sincerely can't say enough good things about my experience at this location. I don't know why there aren't more good reviews, but I was in and out in less than 10 MINUTES! They helped me set up wifi at my new place, gave me the box, and were so kind and efficient. Super nice guys in here. I'll be going here from now on. read more

Extremely unprofessional, rude, and chalk like personality customer service. I asked for help and the heavy set man behind the counter acted as if I walked in on him eating dinner. I explained that I need to change my plan to lower my internet service and add tele. I read to him the order number that I placed online hoping that I could simply pick-up the Contour box. He could not find the order and I asked him to lower my "unlimited" internet plan from the $133/month to the 1.20 TB package since I only averaged 717 Gb of usage. The plan included same upload and download speeds for $67 less per month. I've been overpaying by $65 per month for over a year based on their suggestion. He then quoted me the price of $168 a month to lower and add the television package. FUNNY, It's $115/month online. So I read him the order numbers and he could not find them and asked me to step aside. NOT ONCE did he recommend other deals, what would be best for my usage, NOTHING. RUDE uneducated idiot in the customer service roll. Maybe he's better doing something else. He was rude asking me to step aside so he could help the one person in line. I thought he was helping me. JERK. Spent over 2 hours on the phone with COX, not help, kept getting transferred and disconnected. One person in the "Loyalty Customer" group offered a much higher offer than what is available online. I suggested that I wait to see if one of the two orders I placed get populated into their system. At night I saw the status as "Un-compatible" WHAT? Then a new order pending. I assume they manually are placing the order. I screen shot everything with hopes to prove bait and switch. I will post a YouTube video on how COX is taking advantage of customers and how to review your bill to make sure you are not paying more than you should. At the same time, I will notify the local news stations. I have a neighbor that works for COX that boasts about the "Sharks and Angels" in COX customer service departments. The Sharks get you into packages that you PAY TOO MUCH like I was hoaxed in getting. Then they have the "Angels" that offer you a new package to fix the issue. NEVER have I received credit, and explanation, or notice that a better package exist for my use. I know cellular phone carriers at times would roll over unused minutes. Cox just let me pay $67 more a month for over a year after suggesting the unlimited plan. read more

Cox Communication San Clemente. This store is slightly better at C/S than the La Paz store, Laguna Niguel. The San Clemente stores main objective, quote: is to SELL, not help! So if you have issues or complaints this is not the store for you. Overall, Cox does not have excellent cellular plans, the clarity is not there and it drops calls. Overall I would not recommend Cox. read more

My internet has not worked correctly for over 3 years, they send technicians out, replace equipment, reset the modem etc. still failing. I called in March of 2023 after my business had gone through a major internal theft issue, and requested my video cameras be moved to better locations THREE TIMES. Techs came out but only fixed the sensors and said that they needed a work order for the cameras. I finally gave up, got internet through T Mobile for the last three months to see how it compared, never failed. Super fast and always reliable. Called Cox to discontinue my internet since Tmobil was handling it just fine. Was told I couldn't discontinue service until my contract that AUTO RENEWS BY ITSELF, wasn't over until October. Well in that case, I will be cancelling ALL services including phone and security with COX in October. You don't deserve a single penny of my money, Thankyou for NOTHING you bag of COX. Do yourself a favor and avoid this outdated, unreliable service and switch to T Mobile. It's also less expensive . read more

Customer service is a joke. IT is incompetent. Personal is bureaucratic. If you have an option for service, take it.

What a horrible customer service ! Must have hired drop outs not smart at all ! Figure your sh !t out

1 star is too generous for the employees who work at this store. One employee is watching an instagram or tiktok video on her phone while at the register, while the employee who's 'helping' me with an issue tells me she's doing me a favor for doing her job (actually not doing a sufficient job), and the guy next to her chimes in, talking like he's more interested in boosting his ego by acting like he's something important, that he has power over customers by NOT helping and sending them away because he can. These people are the worst in society, have no place in a customer service environment. But then what can you expect from a company who has zero care about customers or service. Hire minimum wage workers whom no one else would hire, don't train them, and provide the worst possible experience for people walking in. I've worked with other Cox store locations and my experience with those locations were much better. Whoever runs this location should fire those employees, or if one of those I came across runs this location then Cox should find new management for the location. I've complained to the FCC in the past about Cox which actually got a response from Cox headquarters. I guess they are afraid of FCC and only care about them. I wish FCC can take away their licenses. read more

Katya was a new trainee who helped me today. She was wonderful! If she didn't know how to do something she got her manager involved and helped. He as well was very great at solving all my issues as well. My original work order was to cancel my cable and just have internet, something got lost in translation and I ended up having unlimited internet (which I something I didn't ask for) Katya and her manager corrected the problem and I was able to return my cable boxes at the same time. Also, I had to put in a work order for transfer. I think these reviews are a little crazy. These Customer service workers are wonderful and very helpful. I witnessed first hand today another person acting entitled and very rude to this one employee over a bill. My initial thought and I SO badly wanted to say "Maybe you shouldn't have seven cable boxes premium channels. Jeez." read more

Unfortunately Cox is the only service provider that offers the speed we need for our network, otherwise I would have chosen another provider. Customer (not sure they understand the meaning of the word) service (say again?) extremely poor. read more

The absolute WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE. Do not trust these employees. They lie steal and will purposely try to screw you over. I have never been treated so horribly in my life. It's a shame we don't have another option here in San Clemente. This location is the worst. Try to avoid it. read more

I moved into a new Townhouse and as part of our amenities were offered cox contour package. I had to go to the Cox Store to set up the account and pick up equipment. I was greeted right away, Steve Pacella, the Assistant Store Manager, was able to link my current internet only account with our new Contour Package. He provided us with all the necessary equipment. He was professional, knowledgeable and answered all my questions. While I was there I also paid my internet bill. Thank you Steve for the great customer service. read more

Place is dirty. Boxes sit around dusty electronics. Not what you'd expect from your technology provider. Service was slow. When I arrived there were 2 representatives available but one disappeared never to return. When I was eventually helped service was good and knowledgeable. read more

Cox Authorized Retailer - Cox cable store, not only are the display wires a mess. - Television Service Providers Near Me - San Clemente, California

I have no idea why they received the negative reviews of one and two stars when I have been going to that store in the #Cox retailer at Deweys they have been exceptional every time I've been in. Today I went in and exchanged two pieces of equipment I was in and out of the store within 5 to 10 minutes completely courteous very professional and was very very impressed with both Keith and Azi!! I would recommend this Cox retailer store to anyone and again very professional and I had to recommend dealing with Keith and Azi read more

Horrible service Make appointment they supposed to come to house but didn't show up There's a group that give bad review to Cox in Nextdoor.com read more

SLOW SERVICE, HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTICS AND CONNECTION SIGNAL IS TERRIBLE. Go somewhere else. Nice workers but they need better training. Waited for almost an hour here. Cox internet service was horrible. The internet service would drop the signal many times throughout the day for years. HIGH PRICES FOR INTERNET ONLY. Confusing sales gimmicks for bundling services. They have a monopoly in the area. So glad I moved and switched to Spectrum internet. So far, its much cheaper and better. Wow, what a difference a good internet connection is !! read more

Terrible experience with Felix went in twice for a wifi box router and both didn't work,

Whelp, not too much of a shocker here. This review is more for Cox in general, not necessarily this store, although the store is a bit of a S%it show as well. Just spent two hours with Cox's customer service online requesting a simple procedure for my account information. The first Customer Service representative wasted 30 minutes collecting information just to tell me he couldn't help me, and then transferred me to someone who "could help me". Shocker, the second person, despite spending an hour and a half talking with them, was also unable to help me. As a result of being unable to perform a simple request, they attempted to up-sell me instead of transferring me to someone who could help. Overall, Cox is terrible,no surprise. Some of us are stuck using them as they have a monopoly in certain areas, others are lucky enough to have an option to use services from others. Who or what do we need to vote for in our local, state and federal elections to stop these conglomerates from having almost complete control over a utility that has become essentially critical for the majority of the population especially if your job depends on it? read more

Imagine a business model where you punish loyal customers, drive them away, and incentivize them to switch providers. This is the utter stupidity of content providers such as Cox. They lure you in with great one to two year contracts and then, when your contract runs out, increase your rates, torment you with long holds, force you to call them to cancel, and then push you, frustrated, into the arms of the competition. Furthermore, they force feed you services you don't need or want such as security, by only offering the discount you want if you take the multiple service offer. Their tag line "bringing us closer" must be referring to the way they try to collar you into having it their way. Is it any wonder cable TV is losing subscribers at record rates? Their business orientation is designed to serve them, not the customer. This isn't rocket science Cox management. Surely you can figure this out before you are forced to file Chapter 11. Poo. read more

Horrible experience. I bought Cox wifi pods. After a few months they stopped working. Online tech support couldn't help. Onsite tech support said to call online support to get replacements. Online support said to go to store for replacement. Store guy (Wes) said they don't have them and to go to online support. Long story short - I went back and forth, and literally spoke with 10 people. Each pointed the finger at someone else. Bottom line is, no replacement and no refund, even though the pods are supposedly under warranty. read more

Cesar what the rudest store rep ever. Alex amazing. Cesar is garbage. I am a new customer and had trouble shooting. The company said they would not charge me if it was on their part. They still did after it was a company issue. I had been calling for week and no resolution, I was told to go to my local store. I went to my local store and the first rep was cool , but here come this guy with a really bad demeanor and he even called me a lier about what happened on my account. Did not want to honor the company policy. I got it taken care of and adjusted after I told the operator that he called me a liar I have a witness and all. she thought that was the rudest thing ever and fix the problem. Thank you customer service when I can reach you. Cesar should get fired. Garbage human. Very aggressive like he was trying to prove me wrong so hard. I am sure they have it on camera. read more

Very slow internet and very poor customer service. I canceled my cable and started using Hulu but cox continued to charge me. Because they don't tell you the amount of your bills in the email sent ( probably so you don't see how ridiculously expensive it is for crap) I did not notice they continued to charge me for the service I didn't want. When I called they said too bad. It will be a happy day for me when I can cancel cox altogether read more

They really suck, my buddy and I are marines and trying to cancel all our bills before deploying, the representative at the store tried to scam us by saying we couldn't cancel the contract because of an additional piece to the system that was never known about, we spent 3 hours on the line trying to figure out how and we get ahold of a main representative saying all we had to do was finish the last payment of just over $30. Don't trust these guys. read more

Cox - you should shut down and completely reset your customer service department. Your actual Internet service is unreliable and slow, even though I ordered the fastest possible Internet available. Your 'customer service department' label is misleading, it's more appropriate to call them high-pressure sales associates that don't have a clue about the customer's needs. I have completely shut down Cox cable and Internet because it was so horrible. I have switched to DirecTV Now streaming over the AT&T network which doesn't cost me data. read more

Literally GARBAGE! If I could give ZERO STARS I would. Internet literally always drops and never works. Always fucks with our Netflix and what's better is WE CANT GET ANOTHER SERVICE PROVIDER BECAUSE THEY HAVE A MONOPOLY!! Our apartments won't allow us to get a different service provider, at this point I would rather have NO INTERNET! Because I'm basically already paying to get no internet! If we can't get the speed that we pay for then why bother. Cox is TRASH read more

This has got to be the worst service ever!! Every time I call they always say "we will send someone out to fix your service". NO ONE EVER SHOWS! It takes an extra hour to watch a movie on Netflix due to buffering. I HATE COX CABLE! I even pay extra every month for faster service. Too bad a can't give negative stars. read more

I've normally had a bad experience working with Cox, but these guys were very helpful. I also have to say that their phone customer service has gotten better over the years. My technician was very helpful with our tv today as well. I posted a bad review of Cox years back, but this is more of an update regarding Cox right now. Way to improve! read more

Its sad that these guys do business like this. read more

After more than 20 year is being a paying customer I am DONE with Cox. They recently sent me Emails telling me that my cable box was outdated and needed to be replaced. I requested a new box, which I received YESTERDAY and they cut off my service TODAY, before I had any chance to have the new box connected. I called on the phone and talked to a supervisor to whom I explained that, due to complexities in my home electronics rack, it was not feasible for me to have replaced the old box within such a sort period of time. She clearly didn't care and told me it wasn't possible to reinstate my existing box (even though I am paying for service that I am not receiving). These people are scum. I'm going to find another provider. read more
