i was unable to receive incoming phone calls. they were going directly to email with the caller…read morereceiving the message that my voice mailbox was not set up. All my calls were being forwarded to an unknown number. Several techs attempted to correct the issue to no avail. Then Jimmy at the Schaumburg store who was a relatively new employee (2 months) came to the rescue. He not only solved the problem, but made me trust that he knew what he was doing. He's very personable & you can tell he enjoys helping people. He should get the EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH award. If you have any issues with your phone service, I highly recommend you visit the Schaumburg location & ask for JIMMY!

It was time for a new phone. I decided to go to Xfinity right when they opened at 10 AM on a…read moreThursday to avoid crowds. The store opens at 10 and I arrived at about 10:02 - there was a line checking in. There were about a dozen people in front of me. The wait wasn't terrible but was about 30 minutes. The store associate who worked with me was pleasant and knowledgeable. I told her what I was looking for and that I wanted to trade in my old phone. I was given a fair price for the trade-in. The iPhone couldn't be discounted although I did try to negotiate. Not sure if the manager could have done something, but I chose just to move ahead. The process to get the new phone took about 20 minutes. At that point, you are brought to another area where you wait for someone to help you activate the new phone and transfer the contents from your old phone to the new one. I waited about 20 minutes for that store associate to help. The phone needed to update it's operating system, then switch to the transfer process. This took between 30 and 40 minutes. I added a few accessories since I had a 50% off accessories coupon. At that point, the second associate I worked with asked if the first one had gone over my bill with me. No, she hadn't. This associate went through my bill and found a way to save a few dollars a month and add services. I chose not to do it then and got the offer in writing so I could return to the store another time to take them up on it. Overall, the store associates are knowledgeable but vary in the level and quality of service they provide. The waits are too long - especially since some store associates were milling around not helping anyone. That isn't a good look for any business.

I was helped by Nathan 30 minutes of closing. He was very patient. He took his time. He didn't…read morerush. He still offered me promotions and upgrades. Also, the guys that were there that were waiting on him was very patient. They didn't rush to sell, even though the lights were gonna cut off in 40 minutes, they were still patient and at the end of the transaction. I didn't have to pay anything, but I still wind up paying my phone bill due to the fact of that patient and I'm doing everything that I can do in their power to help me to get a new device I would recommend this location to anyone who is in need of a new device and great customer service ask for Nathan of one of the guys that worked with him. This store has a great team. I was just in there today and received great customer service from another guy as well. I wouldn't go to any other store but this one I appreciate you guys keep up the good work.

Employees act there like you're bothering them. They are not there to work. Sitting around doing…read morenothing and don't even bother to greet you. When asked for help . Had the phone shoved back across the table and said we can't do anything. You have to call customer service. Didn't offer to help. Nothing. Completely dismissive and this is a corporate store. Lazy, entitled and obviously just there to pick up a pay check. Oh, and the ignorant manager had to have the last word every single time we pointed out a failure in their customer service. They are not responsible for anything which is endemic these days. Give to charity rather than these ungrateful people.

I called Astound, with the thought process of canceling the service because of the auto increase…read more However, Dominick (Customer service Supervisor) was able to turn the negative experience into a very pleasant one. He handled everything professionally and figured out the relevant plans to be applied in order to win the customer experience. I was on the phone for almost 2 hours though. So, not very happy about that.

At first I was thrilled to not give Comcr*p more money, even if my speeds were a little slower. But…read moreover time the disconnections got more frequent and eventually they started following a predictable pattern. Every time the temperature would suddenly go down - like every day when the sun sets, or any time a cold front would come through - my internet would stop working. Sometimes for minutes, sometimes for hours. I called tech support a dozen time and had three technicians come visit and each one tried something different but nothing solved the issue. Huge packet loss numbers (30+%) and pathetic speeds were my main issues. On the scheduled date of my last technician appointment, he called half an hour after my window started - I didn't answer, as I was in a work meeting at the time (remotely, at home). No message was left, but the technician merrily canceled my appointment. I called their 1-800 number and none of the people I talked to could've cared any less and the next appointment was over a week away. I'm attempting to activate my new service now. It's less expensive than Astound, which is probably a better value assuming this connection actually works most of the time. RCN used to be *GREAT* in Chicago but they have massively changed operations. Astound is worse than Brand X if that's even possible EDIT: I saw their automated response and reached out. No one responded in five days! EDIT 2: you also can't message them! the respond to message link doesn't work lmaoooooooo y'all are terrible
