Credit where credit is due. After my moaning and groaning about Spectrum, I finally got past the suicide-inducing robo-telephone operator [she should be pensioned off], and the engineers arrived. They were great. They crawled through our attic and sorted out the wiring. We now have constant internet and a TV picture which doesn't crap out every 30 seconds with a loss of sound. We are now happy customers. Thank you, Spectrum.

I love that Spectrum reaches such rural places with their streaming network. My family lives out on a farm and Spectrum was one of the few options that we could choose from. And although it was one of our only options, Spectrum has so many options for channels. I love that I can watch my Christmas movies or favorite TV shows all on the same service. I also love to watch college football and I love that I can jump back and forth between games when I am waiting for it to start. And Spectrum is very affordable for how far they stream too.

Mostly it's great but there are several things about Spectrum that are confusing or disappointing to me. Firstly, the due date of the monthly payment could never be changed for me, but it was changed by Spectrum at least 2 - 3 times in less than 5 years. Secondly, the internet goes down for awhile each night around 12:30 AM for daily backup or maintenance or something. I understand this, unfortunately my husband works second shift and he can't get online to distress at the end of his workdays. Another issue is equipment. I had called about another issue last year and the two told me my equipment was old enough that I could get an updated box and pay the same price for better/more service. The device was delivered but it's been sitting in the box for a month. I don't even know what box to replace. They had I could set it up myself but I have ME and cognitive issues and cannot understand instructions, but they won't send anyone to help without charging me. Also there is no way to get any reduction of the bill since I've been such a good and long time customer.

They are my business provider - First you alway sign up for the business plan if you are serious. As a business customer you go to the head of the class when things go wrong as they can. The speed is lightening fast, their customer service is consistently outstanding. I have had Comcast in the past and am so thrilled to not have to deal with Comcast and their "we just don't care" attitude.

A completely happy customer!

I have had satellite companies prior to going with Charter Spectrum. I am so much happier with this company as I live in the Pacific Northwest so whenever there is a storm there is a good chance of losing the satellite connections. Also, the speed of the internet is so much faster than satellite options. Price is high no matter who you go with so I woulld rate that a tie with the satellite company internet

I wanted my mother to have a better internet experience, as she is really into streaming services. We spoke with Avery from Spectrum - Dallas, TX - and he was one of the most stunning agents I've ever spoken with. He was knowledgeable, accurate, and prompt. My mother is super happy with her 400mbps upgrade, and I'm excited that Avery helped make her experience more enjoyable. Thank you, good sir!👍

I have been with Spectrum for about three and a half years now. I really like Spectrum for the way it works. You never have to worry if it's raining and you rarely have to worry even if you have bad bad weather. When I have had a problem with billing they have resolved the problem quickly and it was nothing for me to worry about and I like that. It has always been a pleasure to work with the Spectrum company from the initial startup to after I moved and had to start up again. It was a very smooth transition. I have no complaints against Spectrum. I have only good things to say.

I've been a Spectrum customer for a very long time when it was initially called Charter Communications. Initially, it seemed it was the only cable company in the area that offered cable, internet, and phone service at a good price. However, now with so many other companies that offer the same services, and some offering digital, without having to use cable and at a reduced price, it pays to do your research. Also, since the world of streaming has come to the forefront, offering local channels, and some phone companies having sign-on specials, including internet service, makes having cable service obsolete in my opinion. So, with that being said, I've removed my services and have gotten services that have saved me money as well as served my entertainment needs also. So, although Spectrum is a good company, it pays to shop around.

The service is good with great speed. Outages are addressed pretty well. They will even comp you on the time you were out of service. Only thing is that they dont let you not be on a promotional plan which will end and then you get charged up. You have to really be on top of the billing situation with them. They also flood you with advertisements for services you may not want which is sometimes annoying.

Spectrum is by far the best internet provider we could’ve ever had. It’s service is very speedy and works well in several places. Due to my husbands work we commute a lot and always get spectrum installed immediately because we know without a doubt that it will not let us down. Recently we had a power outage and it damaged a fuze but it was quickly resolved with new equipment and up and running by the same day.

I have been using Charter/Spectrum as my internet provider in three different locations over the past 16 years. The speed and reliability have been above average as compared to what I hear from other people. The price appears to be competitive, but by no means a bargain. Spectrum also provides a free security suite of anti-virus software, which I no longer use since I have another product. Outages are seldom. Customer service is fair. I recommend Spectrum and would use again.

Spectrum is one of the best companies for internet cable and phone services you can get they keep their appointments on time they are serious about satisfying their customers I would highly recommend if you're going with the internet service go with spectrum but they have a tendency to go that extra mile and contact you multiple times either through your phone email wondering why you didn't keep your appointment so they are a punctual company they are right there at your house when they say they're going to be in the very polite very cordial they welcome you in with a good deals I get this company five stars because they actually came to my house and I had spectrum installed in one of my tenants rooms here in San Antonio and they were pretty quick the installer was very nice it was a nice guy not to mention their customer service is like top notch if you ever have a problem the service or one of the items or some of the equipment feel free to contact them anytime

One thing is a given. Everyone, everywhere complains about their cable TV and internet providers. Even when it’s good. Spectrum is actually the best ISP I’ve ever had. Of course, everything is locality-dependent. I live near Palm Springs and other than severe heat, which usually doesn’t negatively impact internet service, we don’t often get extreme weather-- especially rain. In the 3 yrs I’ve had internet with Spectrum, my internet has probably gone down twice or maybe 3 times, for less than a few hours, total. If even that. I like them. And when you leverage your existing Spectrum internet with Spectrum Wireless, you get extremely well-priced cellphone service that uses the Verizon network— which is the best cell network in this part of the California desert. My advice is to not listen to everyone who constantly complains about their Internet service. Sometimes it’s just a lot of talk. Spectrum is actually quite good.

Absolutely terrible, the internet is slow and almost everyday I have to restart the the router and modem until my home devices connect. I call the isp and they say everytime well everything on our end looks good, they send someone and charge $100 for them to come take a look nothing seems to be the problem. But nothing ever stays connected and even my pc is hardwired to the damn thing, there's no service. The only thing they offer is to increase my speeds for another $20-$30. Not only that they're charging me up the wall with the internet and yet offering the same services at lower prices and I can't change my services to the cost of what they're offering. I want to change but no one is offering the same speeds in my area.

Spectrum has been a good company when it comes internet as far as reliability. During severe storms the signals usual still works and if not, the outage is not king. I do not like the constant price increase. As far as cellular prices are ridiculous high, but again reliability is great.

They have been ok for 2 years, when I have experienced issues or down service and called in to investigate it seems they were already aware which was helpful. I live in a new construction area so there were outages a lot in the first year or so but were resolved timely and have since slowed down.

Regrettably, my experience with Spectrum.com has been far from satisfactory. The website's performance is plagued by frustratingly slow speeds, making simple tasks a time-consuming ordeal. Browsing through plans, managing accounts, and accessing support resources often result in sluggish loading times and unresponsiveness, causing unnecessary frustration. Furthermore, the pricing on Spectrum.com leaves much to be desired. The costs associated with their services are disproportionately high, especially considering the lackluster performance. Monthly bills quickly add up, leaving customers feeling overcharged for the quality of service provided. In an age where reliable and affordable internet access is crucial, Spectrum.com fails to meet expectations. The combination of slow website speeds and exorbitant prices makes it difficult to justify choosing Spectrum as a service provider. For a more seamless and cost-effective experience, exploring alternative options may prove to be a wiser choice.

Affordable, reliable speeds Spectrum not only offers home internet with Spectrum you can bundle it with t.v, internet and mobile all for one low monthly price and the. The tech support are helpful and helped me get set up the same day I got my modem and router. I definitely would recommend Spectrum to friends and family.

I had Spectrum in the past and I've considered going back to them. Although they offer 'no contract' options, their prices aren't much different from AT&T U-verse. This is the reason that I'm still with AT&T. I will say that Spectrum service is reliable although finding a branch location to retrieve and return equipment isn't very convenient. I had to travel to very undesirable neighborhood during the time that I was a customer. Frankly, that was one of the reasons I decided to do away with their service. Undesirable services tends to come with undesirable neighborhoods. When calling them on yesterday to consider getting their internet only, the representative I spoke with repeatedly gave me bundled service prices against my request. He asked me if I was interested in signing up and I told him no because he ignored my question just so that he could pitch a higher sale. He then told me that he was doing his job and I told him that his job was to listen to the customer FIRST... I assumed that was part of the job. I wish someone could listen to the call. I'm sure Spectrum did not train him in that manner. If you're not interested in a contract, this may be a good option.

Well, I probably am among the multitude who like and enjoy many of the features and quality of this particular carrier, but also dislike some of their particular ways of communicating or providing their services. I think everybody out there would change something about their carrier no matter who they have. I will say this, a long as I can afford it, I have no intentions of leaving Spectrum.

Not as many outages like DirecTV has. Also, with, Spectrum, my On Demand works all the time. When I was with the other provider, On Demand was more like Off Demand. The only thing I can think to improve Spectrum would be, when we have storms and the messages invade our TV, I'd like an easier way to get rid of it so I can get back to viewing my program. The only way to remove it, is to change the channel and then go back to my program. We should just be able to click one button to clear that message after it's read.

Finding an Internet Service Provider (ISP) is always a tough task especially when taking into account cost to quality. Spectrum is quality internet service provider but at a whopping $70 a month unbundled, is it really worth it? Not all customers are in need of cable, telephone and internet services. It would be nice to see Spectrum offer individual packages free of disadvantageous prices to a non-bundle. Also, everyone could benefit from a customer loyalty discount. Overall their service is great but it would be even better at a somewhat reduced price point.

Spectrum is definitely reliable if you’re looking for a reliable Internet and cable company. Prices seem to be a little high and your monthly bill will definitely go up after a certain amount of time so keep that in mind but if price is not an option, you get good service I would recommend spectrum just make sure to read the fine print because sometimes things are too good to be true.

I like spectrum better than any other cable company. only thing is that they dont tell you about any of the things that they charge you for upfront like installation and that you have to have a certain type of tv or a roku unit because they dont give you a cable box anymore. They charge you the absolute most for services that you dont use or actually need. I called after i received my first bill and had to demand they remove charges that i was never told about or that i didnt want. Now i pay $30 month for the fastest internet service you can get!!!

While I am satisfied with Spectrum's service overall, there are some points of contention that I must address. Sometimes, and it's happened twice in 2022, when their service goes out and then comes back on, the cable modem is no longer recognized as a valid device. This led to one service call on the phone and a lot of time trying all the basic things out to get it to work (reboot modem, router, etc), and it gets escalated to another technician higher up in the ladder when it doesn't work correctly. When this happens, the IP address usually changes, and you can ping the gateway, however, traffic is disallowed, that is, until I plug another machine directly into the modem and it works again (with a different MAC address). I had to spoof the working machine's MAC address into the router to get it working again. (none of the techs were very savvy and just said I had a bad router - which was never the case - the issue was on their side: blocking network traffic). When this happened a second time, a few months later, (blocked network traffic), I removed the spoofed MAC address from the router and it worked again normally. I also noticed the IP address went back to the old one (from months earlier). Basically, I've had to fix their issue from my end simply by changing a MAC address and their tech support, while friendly, seems to default to "it's your problem" instead of doing some proper research (granted, they've always been able to see the modem & ping it) or admitting the problem is theirs. That's my only real gripe, with the exception that the monthly rate keeps jumping a few bucks every year and my speed is the same as it was for the last 5 years (limited by my cable modem @~350Mbps Down/10Mbps Up - but I'm paying for Gbps rates). I don't get tv or phone service but it would be nice if I only paid for what I'm using, but there is really no plan for these lower rates. They have good customer service, overall, just would like a break on the rate hikes if I'm not using the bandwidth. So 4 stars.

Having recently moved from my old apartment, where the cable was iffy and minimal, at best, i found Spectrum to be head and shoulders above. For, starters, NO outages. Not even in inclimate weather. I have yet to experience billing problems, which I found frequntly irritating at my old place. They even let me know I could get a senior discount! I would happily suggest Spectrum to anyone having problems with their current provider.

We have Spectrum for both cable and internet. We chose the 200 mm for both speed and distance. (We needed the signal to go all the way to the pool house and the second floor. Pleased to say it works and is well worth the extra $29 a month.) Have had good experience with Spectrum over the past five years but I do wish they would reactivate the vacation suspension of service again as we are only here in Florida for seven months a year.

We live in a area that didn't have internet provider services except through satellite. We had been trying to get Spectrum to service our area for years. That process was very difficult and were always told that they didn't know how to go about us requesting their service. We finally got Spectrum to provide internet service to our area. I am guessing because the pandemic put a huge demand on internet service to rural areas. Now that we finally have Spectrum, we are very pleased with the service. I am paying much less money for much higher speed. I just wish it hadn't taken this long to get service in our area.

We get the gig service and it's been pretty good so far. We started our service in September of 2021. There are two things to be aware of. 1.) The payment date does NOT match the date you signed up for. We signed up on the 21st but our first full bill was October 14th. We were told it would be the 21st since that is when we signed up. We will have to pay extra if we want to change the bill date. 2.) They don't communicate with each other. We had a technician come out because our internet wasn't working during our first month. They were told "yep it's up and running on our end" and they replaced the ENTIRE wiring from the telephone pole to the house. Everything. It still didn't work. They talked to 5 different people. They were scratching their heads. 3 hours of work... They get ahold of the 6th person just to find out that no one had started our service yet. They said it happens often. First person doesn't do it right and then most reps after them don't bother checking. Just say "yep good on my end" so they can move on to the next thing. The repair guys were amazing, and we were "compensated" for the inconvenience. On top of this experience, there have been several other miscommunications between reps and other departments. Other than that, I like it. I'm wireless and it's decent, the wired is amazing. Good for gaming.

I have been with Spectrum for about 2 years now . Initially had some problems but they came out on the sevices call & replaced from my house to the street all of the coaxial cable ( which happenned to be the 70's era type ). They also replaced my Modem & Router & every connection & wallplate in between! Fantastic Service! Recently they responded positively to T Mobile & Verizon pricing by basically matching prices but also doubling my speeds to 400 Mbps.

My wife and I have Spectrum as a internet service in our home. We use it for our television and for our laptops. Our cell phones instantly connect to the internet when we walk into our homes, which cut cost on our cell phone bill. Spectrum has been a reliable service to my family for years now. The bill is very affordable. Our internet has always been constant. The customer service has always been professional when ever we called and had problems. We have a two story home and Spectrum covers both upstairs and downstairs. Thank you Spectrum.
