I've used Provide.net for over 3 years which is enough experience for me to give a good account of…read moretheir service. I didn't want to use Xfinity or AT&T (although Provide.net uses AT&T to provide their service) because I didn't want to be locked in a contract. I am month-to-month. At the beginning of my service, I bought a modem/router for $100 straight from Provide.net. This is great bc I do not pay a rental fee for the modem. I own it and it hasn't outdated in 3 years and I am sure I will get many more years out of it. My service costs me $40 a month. I pay every 3 months at once (this is how they do their billing) but that is fine for me. The service is DSL, but I see no difference between that and fiber/cable, which I have used in the past. Zero difference! So why pay more? I am streaming Netflix on one or two devices at the same time and someone else is probably using the Internet in the house too. The speed is fast. Everyone can do what they need to do. Also, in 3 years, I haven't had bouts of lost connection. The Internet is always working fine. It is 100% reliable. I am thankful for Provide.net because I can walk right into their storefront on Hewitt 10 minutes from my house and talk to a real human if I ever needed, which I don't, but I could. They are also not like corporate Xfinity puppet people, who totally suck! They are real guys who are totally upfront and casual to talk with. I'm never leaving Provide.net and highly recommend it to home Internet users.

The nightmare is finally over with this internet provider…read more Summary since my last review: -Multiple "unexplained" outages. -Discount periods became less and less where I was calling every two months to get a new one re-applied -Final discount ask was not granted and I was only given a slightly higher speed -Cable re-bury effort after our line got cut was redone 5 times and still kept popping up. They claim to bury 18 inches but it looked like 4 or 5 inches at best -Unexplained bill increases. Most likely pulling back their covid-era speed increases by charging their customers. -Customer service chat/phone call is the worst I've ever dealt with. Agents need to have the issue repeated multiple times. You're reporting an issue and they say "excellent, I'm glad to hear that and hope you're doing well". Either not understanding or not listening. -Canceling was very painful. Could not be done through chat, had to be done over the phone, was transferred 4 times and kept getting asked to renew. I'm still getting calls and emails to reactivate my service. I also had to pay Fedex to ship my equipment back, I couldn't drop them off at this location. I know most internet/cable companies are poor but WOW is by far the worst I've ever had. Avoid at all costs.

The worst customer service I have ever received. My credit…read morecard expiry ran out, so they emailed me they needed to update my card. I wrongly assumed I could email them the new expiry date. Instead of replying that they can't update it that way, they canceled my internet. BTW I spent a good two hours monkeying around trying to fix it on my end before I gave in and called for support, to find out I had been canceled. When I called to give them a new card and state that if this was communicated to me I would have called with the updated information. Instead I had a extremally ignorant woman over talking me and putting me on hold so I couldn't have my say needless to say that didn't end well. The only reason they are in business is because rural communities had no other choice. Thank GOD, for Cogeco Cable! Their tech support is any better, numerous times I have called about slowness, or not connecting. There first response is it's your issue not theirs. If you aren't tech savvy they have their customers dazed and confused on how to proceed. When 99% of the time it's on their side. One more month of this and I am free of Wave Direct.

TL:DR; a mixed bag…read more Was sold and purchased 25 Mbps down, 3 Mbps up. Initial speed tests were not good. Extremely variable; often times no faster than 4 Mbps down, and less than 1 Mbps up. I noticed that I seemed to max out at 15 Mbps down and 2 Mbps up. WaveDirect have a package that matches this service profile. I thought that was too coincidental. I inquired, and sure enough, I was on their 15/2 service and was told this was the maximum they could provide at my location. I work from home, and like many others these days, I spend a majority of my time on Zoom and Teams calls. Upstream is important. I complained, and they modified my profile to provide up to 3 Mbps up as a compromise. They couldn't provide more on the downstream. During regular casual use (YouTube, web surfing, etc...), it was *okay*, not great. Very inconsistent. Wildly variable ping times. Sometimes I could cloud game on it (Google Stadia), but usually, it was too pixelated and laggy to be able to. Whenever it rained heavily, service would be knocked out. In the mornings and evenings speeds were *very* slow; 1-2 Mbps down at times, less than 1 Mbps up. When I was able to start using the connection for work, it was again, choppy and inconsistent. Most of the time it would be fine (but not fast), often times borderline unusable (choppy audio, freezing video). Once my 1 month trial was up, I asked if they could extend it by a week because I hadn't had much time living with it for work purposes. I was told no. Reluctantly, I decided to sign a one year contract for $99 rather than pay the $199 no-contract fee. Contract terms were also confusing; I was told this, first: An immediate cancellation-2 Year/Full penalty when committed is $450 (Under a Year/If paid within 2 weeks can be reduced) ** Complete Under One Year = Cancellation Fee of $200 ** Complete One Year = $50 I found this slightly confusing, so I asked for clarification when agreeing to continue service. I was then told they had changed things to $15/month for each remaining month in your contract. That was a factor in choosing to sign for one year. The next 6 weeks weren't great. My router (eero) runs a speed test almost daily, so I had a running log of performance. 5/2 was the average. There would be good days where it hit 14/3 or 10/2, but there were far more days of 4/1 or even 3/1. Steaming video services would buffer frequently. I reduced quality settings in every streaming app that I could. Storms are frequent in this area of Canada, and we would have outages that would often last 5-10 minutes. I decided to call WaveDirect to cancel. I asked if any accommodation could be made on the cancellation fee, as it just wasn't working out, and I had expressed concerns before. I was told it would be $450, which contradicted what I was told when I signed up. Then I was offered the $15/month for the remaining contract term (11 months). They informed me that because I hadn't called to complain about service outages, they couldn't compromise on the fee. Frankly, I would have been calling them almost daily. When I did have to call technical support to authorize my personal router (twice), no one ever answered the phone. I had to leave a message and they would eventually call me back. I never received any response to my text messages either; a newer option they advertise on their recently revamped website. WaveDirect was a mixed bag of mostly average, somewhat acceptable service, with frequent service disruptions, inconsistent communication and somewhat misleading business practices. I feel like they did their best as far as the actual *service* goes, given technology constraints, but they could improve the other areas of their business a little bit, too. I would only recommend them if you're okay with the above, or if you literally have no other option. If you're a casual user who isn't relying on the internet for virtually everything (work, entertainment, etc...), they may suit you just fine.

From the very beginning, Carla was professional, patient, and incredibly helpful. She spent nearly 40 minutes working with me to make sure everything was resolved properly. At one point, I accidentally disconnected the call, but to my surprise, she called me back and continued helping me without missing a beat. What stood out most was her dedication and genuine willingness to help. She guided me through every step of the process, explained everything clearly, and made sure the issue was fully resolved before ending the call. Her positive attitude, excellent knowledge, and outstanding customer service turned what could have been a frustrating experience into a very pleasant one.
