We ended up arriving on 5-25-25 which was Saturday of the Memorial Day weekend. No services were set up by Arvig on the date I had requested. Customer service said too bad, so sad; wait until Tuesday and call the business office. No ownership, no effort to help us get service for our phones, computer, cable for three days. Today I w as given a weak apology but no ownership on Arvig's part. Arvig, your customers deserve to be treated better. Be better.

I am in the country just outside of eagle bend and bertha.. just got the new fiber internet i was…read moresupposed to be signed up for the high speed package...But when i called the customer service to see what i am at they basically gave me the run around bullshit said my fiber out here is in testing mode still.. so instead of the promised 990Mbps i get 350 ... So in all reality its no different than b4 threw old copper wire... I think they need to focus on getting the right equipment infront of there fiber .. Then maybe they wouldnt look Like such a fraud.. The Biggest joke of them all is there customer service suggested i use there wireless verison instead So put fiber in the ground an then just try to sell you wireless (Cellular Basically at only 350 Mbps) Because your not smart enough to make the fiber what you advertised it to be... you would think at some point you get better people in your company to get the job done correctly...an one last thing its nice the workers that came out to do the work an hook it up smelled you POT!... So professional!! brian

I have never written a Yelp review before. When I first talked with an agent on the phone to set…read moreup internet service, I was quoted a certain price for the 20 Mbps internet service. When the technician set up my service, it was only achieving ~9 Mbps. I contacted customer support and was told that if I wanted 20 Mbps, I would have to pay $20 more. I was not pleased, but agreed to pay the extra $20 per month. However, I still was not reaching speeds of more than 10-11 Mbps. I called customer support and they explained that sometimes in rural areas that is the best speed they can achieve. This was the second time I was promised something that wasn't true (#1 - bait and switch pricing scheme, #2 - promising a customer that you offer 20 Mbps in the area when you do not). I cancelled my service and returned my cable modem to Crosslake Communications within hours of installation. [Follow-up] Literally within 5 minutes of posting a negative Yelp review, I received a call from Pam at Crosslake Communications. She was gracious, conscientious and helpful. She was empathetic and apologetic. She has transformed my opinion of Crosslake Communications.

Get starlink. TDS is truly awful to work with as a company.

Get starlink, no needing to wait for a tech to come out, considerably more reliable.

This company is an absolute nightmare. Called to set up service. On the phone with them for 45min…read more Told them I just wanted internet. No phone. No cable and they kept pressuring me to get it. When we finally came to an agreement their computer froze and I had to call back. So I called back the next day. Another 50min phone call. Finally the said they would have someone out in a week. When the big day finally came they didn't show. Apparently the guy taking the order forgot to process it.. when They did finally show they ran the cable across the lawn for bird and dogs to pick at instead of putting it underground. We agreed that since I took work off for a no show on their end they would give me free installation and free first month. Well I just got billed for the first month and I've been on hold for over a half hour now trying to resolve this. Figured I would leave them a glowing review they deserve. F*ck TDS!
