Excellent customer service experience!…read more Worked with agent Ann David over the phone. She is knowledgeable, thorough and extremely patient (I ask a lot of questions!) I began the day prepared to cancel RCN service....i am happy to remain an RCN customer. Ann made what cou have been a frustrating experience into an easy one. I wish all customer service agents would be as dedicated and professional as Ann I was not asked to post a review

As has been said before by many others, this company has bad customer service. Far worse than the…read moreservice is their dishonesty. Astound is a good name for these people. The low level customer service and the way the company bilks customers is astounding. They claim to be giving you a five (5) year price lock. In my case, two months later they change the name of your promotion to Promotion for Life. They say that this means that only the taxes can go up if they do, but not the price for the service in my case, $40.00 with $5.66 in taxes for a total of $45.66. Do not be fooled. All their promotions, regardless of names, can be renamed and repriced at any time. They actively promote Autobilling, which means they take the money directly out of your bank account each month. It is not worth getting a $5 reduction to have these crooks get access to your bank account. Once you provide them with your bank account number, they can help themselves to any amount. Prices with Astound change at the drop of a hat. They do this by claiming that your plan's name was changed. What this means is that they hiked the price. Am actively going to see if I can find a better deal elsewhere. These people are nasty and only interested in bilking customers. These are seasoned scam artists.

Verizon Fios changed my plan without my permission and sent me a confirmation email saying that…read more"your order is confirmed" I like the old plan I have so there is no way I would have changed it. Besides it was changed on a Sunday when I was busy attending a function. They had no explanation as to why it was changed, saying they don't work on Sundays and that they will change it back. Of course I don't believe them!!! I'm still waiting to speak to a supervisor... no one has call me back yet!

If you need to bang your head against the wall, use Verizon Fios. They are the worst company that I…read morehave ever dealt with. Should you need any type of assistance, forget about it. First you spend one half hour dealing with their useless automation then they cut you off. Two or three callbacks later, about 2 hrs in, you Google your issue and solve your problem yourself. This seems to be the program.

Very difficult to get a straight answer out of Verizon Fios. They keep discontinuing their plans…read more What are the new plans? What is the pricing? You can only find out these things if you're a new customer getting a promotional offer. Otherwise its all a secret. The only guarantee is that there will be a hefty price increase. Also, be warned. If your signal goes out, if your internet stops working, you will NEVER get a credit. I don't care how many times you call about the outage, or how long the outage lasts, they will somehow have no record that you ever called. They will pretend there was no outage in your area. Also, their internet often goes out at night. Midnight, 1am, 2am, 3am is NOT a good time for Fios internet. It stops working for no reason. And it stays off for hours at a time.

The Greek God Fios is a Myth ! ;-)…read more I was entirely unable to attain an address online for the their "Only Call Center" in the entire U.S. (Wow) This review is about my experience with Call or Ordering Center. I spoke to their sales people. No names included here. I only wanted WIFI they talked me into getting TV package I did not want with a Channel line up I did not want, Otherwise, I would pay more for slower WIFI. They wanted to charge me, listen to this, @$300!!! in fees over 3 moths before I finally paid my actual monthly rate. RCN offered be lightening fast internet that practically shoots fire etc. ;-) with no installation etc. fees. No more then the price listed! I have done this before ;) And 3 years of no big price hikes! Verizon FiOS wants customers to negotiate a bargain at the end of each agreement~ Huh ? I kid you Not! Othwerwise big price hikes! Verizon Fios Call center kept me on the phone for 40 minutes trying to cancel my order! I still have to call them today to make sure my order was actually processed. FIOS call center kept trying to negotiate to prevent me from leaving. I felt sincerely harassed and I am Not one to complain easy in this regard, The regular employees were afraid to handle a cancelled order. I was automatically directed to a supervisor who offered a reasonable package... Here's the catch...I had to accept it right there and then because she was a supervisor etc. or I would lose the deal. Every deal is handled this way. OMG ! THIS WAS SAME EXPERIENCE I HAD WHEN I TRIED TO GET A WIRELESS I-PHONE AND THEY DO NOT OFFER UNLIMITED ETC. They tried to talk me into spending more then I needed to spend and hit me with so many fees. T-MOBILE has been very good to me and my service is not better or worse then Verizon wireless was! Only reason why VERIZON is doing to so well is Because customers tend to care more about bogus consumer reports & rating etc. then actual facts. Next...RCN is giving me a duo bandwidth modem and speeds approaching 110 mbs. Now my wifi will shoot fire out of me ears & arse simultaneously ..Right at FIOS the God of Myth! PS: get what you need Not what "THEY" tell you to get! $$$$ One of my teens said to me "Dude, I game on line etc, you don't need Upload speed of 50 mbs! I only use 1 or 2" Sincerely Chris

The highlights: Andre did the install and I've not met many ISP techs in my life but we could tell right away he knows his craft inside out and enjoys it. We spoke to Rachel later to iron our some contract/money issues and that went very smoothly as well. It also helps that when you dial the number, you don't get that [expletive] "Hi! Thank you for calling [name of (expletive) company here]. Please listen carefully as our menu options have recently changed (no they have not). Also we are experiencing higher than average call volume, which is our way of saying that we don't know the concept of "average." You get a ACTUAL PERSON (or at least a very convincing artificial intelligence), thank heck. Lastly: the night of 1/6, our speed tanked. I texted the customer support # and within minutes got an answer, and shortly thereafter our down/up speeds were back to normal. All in all, so far so good.... my Cherophobia keeps insisting that /something/ will go tits up but so far it's been solid!

I just got service in Dec from Honest. I came back from a five week trip and had no internet upon my return. They diagnosed it as a problem in the lines coming to my unit (so not my issue) but it will still take them 3 days to come out and restore service. I understand that they are less expensive than others, but I can't really deal with outages like this. If it happens one more time, I'll move on to a more reliable provider
