Thieves! Do not subscribe to this service. Service is shotty at best. Super expensive and when you finally get fed up and cancel, they will charge you for service afterwards. I paid for service through April 06, 2024 on March 10,2024. I then canceled service just 1 week later on March 18th. I received a bill for service from April-May and was basically told that it was because I went with another provider, that they expected to get paid. I was with them for 20 years, paid $305 a month and they still want to rob me for another $356. Never use this company! Thieves and crooks

I wish I could give a couple dozen minus stars for this company! They have a monopoly in WV with phone and DSL and both suck. I pay for high speed DSL and they consider high speed 5mbs. On a speed test I get 362kbs upload and 312 download at best, I've complained but I should just talk to a wall instead of wasting my time calling them. I can't watch Roku TV and use my PC without one of them timing out and forget downloading anything or gaming. It took 2 weeks to download an 80GB game, I kept losing internet and only had 150kbs download speeds. Dial=up internet was/is faster!

Frontier is an absolutely wretched company! Completely disorganized and unprofessional at every level. It's been 5 weeks since I signed up. They charged me and they haven't even installed the service. They have made 3 service appointments and they have been a no-call no-show to every appointment. If lost more than 1 years worth of internet service in lost income as a result of the time off I've taken, only for them to not show up. Spend a tiny pinch more and go with AT&T fiber or any other company. This company is an abject failure and their incompetence will end up costing you!

Worst company ever! Frontier canceled my business internet service without our permission, while we requested to cancel our phone lines. It not only brought us a lot of trouble since there is no internet, and also charged us the early termination fee. Moreover, the agent did not remove all the phone lines we requested to terminate from our account, and keep charging us fees! I contacted Frontier and tell them the problem, but no one resolve this issue, and sent the case to collection agent, everything is so messed up with this company

I was with them for over 7years and the customer service has been awful from day one. Constant price increases too. At some point they started contracting the hotline overseas to make matters worse. The Internet speeds were usually very slow and many times not usable. I recently cancelled service with them and they attempted to keep charging me. Then they tried to charge me 70 for their router box that they sent me. I shipped it back and now they they want a 50 dollar restocking fee,plus state tax. They instantly turned it in to collections. Definitely stay away from this business if you can

I called June 26th to get internet hook up the soonest they could come out was July 10. July 10th a technician came out and said they needed the bucket to reach the pole they would be out later that afternoon. They never showed so the 11th I called and was told they would be out that day, they never showed. When I called they tried making me take another appointment in a week! I said no they need to do their job when it says. I even answered their text saying they would be here. Then the customer service representative hung up on me. So much for the costumer being right.

If you lose internet for 3 days… all they’ll do is give you a $5 credit. At least with AT&T, the technician came out the very next day. They increase your rates almost monthly and when you get tired of it and cancel, THATS when they try to win you back with a lower price (after disconnect). Then they go right back to hiking your prices a few dollars every month. If you work from home, there are definitely cheaper providers out there. All this is to say, I miss AT&T and how at least they offered a $50 credit when my internet went out for a day.

If you want to chase your bill each month because they are always adding additional fees, you should sign with Frontier Internet. They cannot be trusted to sign up with auto billing. They constantly change your billing price calling it promotions have expired. They are stupid! They could keep customers by charging everyone the same price by speed requirements. The management team and marketing team should all be fired! No wonder they filed for bankruptcy.

Twice now on 2 occasions I had technical issues with my connections. Both times I had an appointment and was given a 4 hour window when the technician would show up. Both times i waited more than the 4 hours, both times the technician NEVER showed up. My internet modem is working but has a red light on it and my download speed is much slower than the service I am paying for. I will be looking for another provider as soon as possible.

Heads up neighbors, if you use Frontier, be ready to waste a couple hours of your time cancelling your account. They set up their system to get new customers in and taken care of quickly but if you want to cancel they make you spend hours. There is no workaround. They had decent service, but never again will they have my money. If you detest companies that make quitting services purposely painful, perhaps you should be aware of these tactics.

I would give them no stars if possible. What they call high speed dsl is far slower than when all we had was dial-up. I can't stream on my high end gaming PC and go on the web at the same time, it slows down so much that it buffers and stops. I'm trying to download a game update of 60gb, it will take almost a week because the highest download speed is 5mbs.

Pay $70 a month for internet that doesn't exceed 6MB down per second, and that's during a speed test. During an actual download, I've never seen speeds above 750KB/s. Abhorrent customer service, directed straight to a person across the world, when they have an office in my town. Horribly unreliable, have had bouts of it going out incessantly for days on end on multiple occasion.

Worst customer service I have ever experienced. Tried to sign up "on line", they say there is technical difficulties, call customer service. I called their customer service number three different times to sign up but they couldn't verify my credit worthiness. Each time I called it was like I never spoke with them before and had to give them all my information all over again. They still couldn't (wouldn't} verify my credit and required a $70 deposit to verify credit worthiness. NO way no how will I ever be a Frontier customer!

Do you miss dial-up internet? Then this is the company for you. I paid for 1,000 mb/s service but actually received 0.05 mb/s service. Don't worry the other advantage of their internet services is you get to "Netflix and chill" like in the old days before streaming. So bust out that dvd collection for your girl because you won't even make it to the homepage of any streaming site with their services.

Frontier is absolutely garbage. They have a geographic monopoly here and because they have no competition they won't fix their service! Our internet commonly goes out for nearly the whole day, on average it's out at least 5 hours a day if not more. We keep losing internet for about a week, it was two weeks of almost no internet about a month ago (and of course I was told they don't have the equipment to fix it but my family was still charged the full amount.) They finally sent a new router after my family having been asking for 2 years, they told us it would fix the problem. It didn't.

Con: --Paying for 500/500 and rarely see 10%/5% of that--wired (running Google Nest wireless and when the bandwidth is good, the G. Next works great)(three users in house, 4 cameras connected). I would be extremely happy paying for 500/500 and getting 250/250 consistently. I used to see 500/500+ regularly during the off hours (late night)--now I don't even see it in the off hours. As soon as an alternative exists, I'm dumping Frontier!

Frontier is horrible to work with. If you are a small business do not use them at all costs. I have a Pri system with 15 lines pay over $1,000 per month have over $10,000 worth of equipment. You would think that when you call us the phone would ring. Nope, it is busy if we are on the phone it has been this way for close to 2 months now. With 14 other lines, it should rollover. Nope it does not so the thousands and thousands we are spending on advertising you can not get ahold of us. They do not care how much money they are costing us.

Frontier is the absolute worst internet provider. They have terrible speeds and I get less than half of the download speeds I am supposed to get. Generally I get downloading speeds of around 500Kbs a second which is absolutely horrible. The internet goes out several times a day every single day of the week. It is ridiculous how bad this internet service is. They won’t ever do anything to fix it either because they are the only option where I live. If you have any other options definitely choose the one that is not frontier.

If I could rate the company a zero, I would. I called the company even times and spent hours attempting to get service. I got to the point where they said that they needed to send me equipment via UPS. They have no offices in any location closer than 400 miles away. I called and cancelled / closed the account. They charged me $27.77 for this. I paid so that I never have to deal with them again.

What a scam I signed up for service at 27.99 a month first bill came in at 37.99 plus 10.00 for router. It took them 6 weeks to get service working. I was told they would waive the 49.99 installation charge. On top of this I had 4 missed appointments with no call, text, email stating no one will be showing up. Do not use this service been total disappointment since day one. I will be writing this all over internet.

This company doesn’t even deserve a single star. What a joke! We signed on a few months ago and have had 7 major issues with our internet since then that has affected our work from home. The customer service is HORRIBLE, we got hung up on, placed on 3 hour holds and never apologized to when we really deserved a refund for all of the mistakes they made setting up our internet. We since discontinued our service and will tell all our friends and family to do the same.

I had to disqualify myself from the poor connection. Paying for 50/50 mbps at almost $200 a month. I took a pic of me only getting 3mbps down and 2mbps up. Tried shutting off and rebooting. Now only getting 15mbps down and 9mbps up. Done with this company.

Terrible!! Constant service issues. It's rare to go 1 day without having the internet go down at least several times throughout the day. Normally it goes down several times an hour all day long. It doesn't stay down, just disconnects and causes the router to reboot. Customer service is a joke, always repeating the same things like reboot the router, move the router, everything looks good, the next available appointment for a tech is 2-3 WEEKS from now. Yes, it's cheaper than Spectrum but it's basically worthless! Save yourself the headache, go anywhere but here!

Appointment was today, took off work 8-12 and at 11:30 called was sent from dept to dept, spent over an hour on the phone, at the end, they said they were just sending me a new router, they would not even entertain anything for this most horrible inconvenience.

Service is often interrupted. Internet speed promised is on average 45% of plan sometimes being less than 10%.. Service men are friendly and appear they know what they are doing but indicated the system is in need of significant repair which has been forwarded to management with no actions taken. If there were any other options I would drop Frontier services in a heartbeat. If fact no service is better than poor, often interrupted service.

I sent the documentation, and they emailed me the Positive ID approval a few days later, but whenever I called them, they said the approval couldn't be found.

Awful is an understatement. I was told since they have "over-provisioned" their hardware the engineering "will get to it". Fast forward 8 months and not only the issue is not fixed (as in having 500/500 but getting 1/3 IF it is even connecting to the net) but they try to sell you even more services/products.

Frontier was here in August to diagnose a broken wire and was told it would be a month to 7 weeks to fix . We are now a the last of December and have no internet service. Just get the run around about getting the repair done. They do not service, just collect money and do not care if you have service or not. Problem is they are the only provider choice I have!

Equipment is unsupported junk from Netgear. Customer service, if you can even understand what they're saying, from India and is horrible. Advertised speeds are just that, advertised. Real world speeds are 75% or less. Supposedly the company is filing Ch. 11 in 2020, which will things worse. They've been sued multiple times over their services and advertising (Michigan AG & West Virginia AD come to mind) and have lost each time. This company makes GTE look good which is unbelievable.

Frontier is a nightmare. The internet service is slow, expensive, and unreliable. The last time I called Frontier's 1-880-WE-DON'T-REALLY CARE number because my internet was down again, I was told it would be FOUR DAYS before a technician would look at my problem. Most recently, I'm trying to set up the History channel on my Roku. In the process, I must log on to my Frontier account. When I do so, I'm taken to a blank, white page and nothing else happens.

If you ever had a service with Frontier you probably know how disorganized this company is. They mess up with bill, don't delivery the service they promise and give you a hard time when you cancel. I had it once in the past and went through all this, then I moved to another area and decided to give them a second chance and I had the same problems.
