I've been a customer for 20 plus years, and so many times when I've lost my phone, had it stolen, couldn't figure out a problem with it, Jarrett has not only solved the problem but also has been a rock of reassurance that it is not the end of the world, my data can be secured, all can be put right. Also, if you have any question at all about cell phones, these people have the answer. Devote30 is simply an 10+ out of 10 business.

We made a trip to VRC to see if they would help out, even though I didn't have insurance. They have upgraded from a kiosk to a full-fledged store since I made my purchase. It's fairly spacious and nicely laid out. It also has plenty of staff on hand, all armed with tablets to make the service more consistent. We were funneled to a college-aged kid named Dominic. He could not have been more helpful. Yes, he tried to upsell us on a tablet, but that's his job. He did what he could for my situation, getting me a manufacturer's warranty replacement, so I can keep going until my contract is up. There is enough competition for mobile devices and plans these days that service is a make-or-break consideration. This location of Verizon does it right.

I appreciate the professional closeout, and I want to note that publicly. For context, my decision to leave was based on a longer pattern, not a single ticket. Over roughly a year and a half, I dealt with recurring instability and spent a lot of time troubleshooting on my side and working with support. I replaced equipment early on and kept trying to make it work, but reliability never reached the level I need. The last straw was a customer engagement issue. I made a LinkedIn post describing what I was experiencing. A company leader commented on the post, but the response was directed toward another commenter and not to me, the customer who raised the issue. That moment clarified where the consumer experience sat in the priority stack, at least from my perspective. On December 12, 2025 I took the equipment offline due to reliability concerns, returned it on December 17, 2025, and moved back to Xfinity. In my environment, stability returned immediately after the change. I also want to give credit where it is due. Aleas (pronounced "ah-lee-s," and I apologize if I have the spelling slightly off) made me feel like I mattered as a customer in this situation. Jennifer did as well. In my professional estimation, both deserve a raise. The only other positive experience I had was the installer, who was a genuinely friendly and professional guy. I am sharing this as a factual update for anyone researching providers. I appreciate Hunter resolving the billing cleanly. At the same time, based on my experience, I cannot recommend their consumer service for situations where consistent reliability and direct customer communication are critical. I hope they continue improving the consumer side, because the infrastructure can be strong, and the customer experience should match it. *********** Original Review Based on my experience, it is my professional recommendation not to buy Hunter Communications fiber service for residential use. I paid a month in advance, spent about a year and a half troubleshooting stability problems, and ultimately had to go back to Xfinity to get reliable service again. I am a Technical Consultant with 30+ years in support, hardware, and software, and I exhausted every reasonable step on my side before giving up on their connection. Hunter knows their equipment has been offline at my location since the 11th, yet they are keeping the month I paid in advance and are now trying to charge me roughly another $100 on top of that. From what I can tell, somewhere around 95% of their revenue comes from government and enterprise contracts. Any business they lose on the consumer side does not appear to affect their bottom line in a meaningful way. They grew up servicing government clients and, in my opinion, they operate like a government contractor, with the same IT and responsiveness shortcomings I have seen in that world. To be fair, the customer service representatives I spoke with generally seemed to care and tried to help. My concern is with upper management and policy. In my view, they show very little interest in doing what is right for consumer-level customers, even when the service has been unstable and that fact is well documented.

Since Hunter bought them, I've had nothing but trouble. The expect a 78-year-old woman to dig a trench for the cable. The dish is 100 ft. from the house. It's only to cover the cabel, probably 3 inches deep. WHY couldn't then do it? The one time I called for a repair, they took a week to send someone. When I finally canceled, they stole $103 for the next billing cycle saying some garbage about how they couldn't refund me because it was for the month coming up. WHAT? Then they said they couldn't give me the money due that I didn't use. THEN they hung up. I could take them to small claims, but that's way too much time to waste. Don't use Hunter. I got T-Mobile that just plugs in, is less than half the price and works perfectly.
