They continue to withdraw monthly payments from my checking account, however, despite multiple calls and filling out proper paperwork.

Wonder how long they'll stay in business.

I am new to Clear, so in fairness, I haven't had too much time for problems. That said, I was a…read moreComcast customer for over 6 years. Everyday I had to reset my wireless internet and had to deal with buffering and loading while trying to stream movies or tv. When I would call customer service for help I would have to deal with a runaround and people telling me that they refused to help. It wasn't until I cancelled my service with Comcast that they offered to come out and fix the issue. Too little, too late. I switched to Clear because I am sick of paying Comcast too much money for low quality internet and customer service. I spoke with a Clear salesperson to have a few questions answered and he was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I received my wireless modem in the mail and was able to set up my internet in about 2 1/2 minutes and it works great. So far, I have not had service interruptions or had to deal with slow buffering speeds. I keep the modem in the window and I do live downtown so that may help. If i continue to get the quality internet I'm getting now then Comcast will never get my business again.

Ok, I am also a former Comcast customer. Let me just say that my experience with Comcast was so…read morehorrific that I was driven--by sheer determination of never giving them another red cent--to seek an alternative. Happily, I stumbled onto Clear 4G Wireless service. I am sure, like any wireless, that it does not work for all people in all locations, but I have had Clear for six months, and these have been six months with a lack of service calls, lack of billing errors, lack of surprise charges and new fees, etc. I have been thrilled with my cord cutting experience, and I will never go back to Comcast. The added upside is that my family watches less tv, and we have an extra $100+ dollars a month for entertainment.

I've had Clear since it first came to town. It wasn't super fast so I upgraded to the more…read moreexpensive, faster package. It turned out to be about the same. It claims to give up to 6 mbps downloads. We've tested it on different platforms and browsers and never get more than 1.5 mbps. It also is very inconsistent. Sometimes pages load fast and sometimes really slow. There are also times where the service doesn't work for 20 minutes or so at a time. So we switched to Comcast and for about $2 more/month, we're getting 15 mbps. I don't love Comcast in general, but at least we have fast internet now. Anyway, Clear is a great concept and hopefully they will improve their speeds in all areas of town. I'm sure if you're in certain neighborhoods it works better. I know about 5 other customers who use Clear and none of them are very happy with it.

One word: SLOW! This…read moreinternet has got to be the worst I've ever had. Even dial-up would seem more consistent. Clear however, seems to have two speeds. Slow and slower. If you're thinking about doing anything with this service other than a simple check of your email, forget it. And even then, be patient. Downloading computer updates, takes forever. Streaming any sort of media, forget it. This internet sucks. I know a lot of people have issues with Comcast's business practices. however, given the options available, it may be the best bed. bottom line CLEAR SUCKS!

READ THIS FIRST IF YOU'RE HAVING ISSUES WITH FIBERSPHERE:…read more From an insider, here's how it works at Goobersphere. If you've attempted all of the suggestions that they give you on the phone: 1. Don't expect them to call you back within 24-48 hours if they say they will. They have zero intention to. They never ever will. 2. If they say they will "escalate" it to someone at a higher position with more knowledge this is also a complete lie. They are trained to say that, but it means absolutely nothing. They all work in the same place with the same rank and knowledge. 3. If they tell you to call back within a few hours they are just pawning you off to the next person on the next shift. Again there is no other higher qualified folk there that can help. So what do you do after all of that nonsense? If you try all of the suggestions they have and they don't work, request for a technician. What he did only cost 25 bucks (cash, lol). If they refuse like they did with us a few times, then wait about 8 hours until the next shift and request it from the next employee. I hope this saves someone the countless hours we wasted the last month. Now this (below) was my review before learning the info above (although it was pretty obvious to begin with): This is my first time using Fibersphere. We're at almost three weeks and counting and still no internet. They have a handful of questions they ask us to try each time and then say "we will have someone call you within 24-48 hours" and they never do. We are in a endless cycle of spending about 45 minutes every day to fix this. We rely on internet daily for our jobs so this has been pretty not so convenient. No one ever of course uses Comcast or Centrilink nor Fibersphere because they actually want to. They use it because the options are limited. CEO's of internet provider companies should be in jail. How about instead of buying extra yachts you pay your employees better and train them so that they can actually fix things? No excuse for something like this to take three weeks...

Fibersphere is the internet service that my HOA provides, so I did not have a choice in selecting…read morethem as my ISP. I just had my internet repaired after 6.5 days of it not working. I called the first day and was informed it would be fixed within 24 hours. Called the second day, and I was put on hold for over an hour and then lost connection. Called back, and I was informed it would take up to 72 hours. Called after 72 hours, and I was informed I would receive a call from a technician that same day. No one called. I called again on Monday (day 5) and then I was informed they would dispatch a technician on day 6. I had to leave work early to make sure I could make the appointment. No one showed up, no one contacted me, I check the internet and it's fixed. Besides that horribly frustrating experience, the internet actually works fine for the most part, except when I lose lots of data packets occasionally. The customer support reps were very friendly. The problem is that it's impossible to get in touch with a technician with the authority/capabilities to repair the issue.

Lost no money, but wasted time and it was a pretty big inconvenience. I hope you have better luck!
