I keep forgetting to write a review for DC Access, and I am now finally getting around to it…read more I've been a customer since this past summer when I moved across the street and learned that Verizon Fios was not being offered in my new location. I work online, and so I need to have a reliable connection-- and that's when a friend of mine recommended trying out DC Access. A long time customer of Verizon, I was wary of going with a small, local company. Long story short, I could not be happier. Frankly, I feel like DC Access is better than my previous service with Fios. For one, the internet connection feels much more reliable now than it was before (maybe it has to do with the number of people who are on it? I don't know, but I haven't had -- fingers crossed-- any outages or lapses in quality). The other great part about DC Access is that, since it's a small local company, they are very responsive. I don't have to wait on the phone for ages or swap emails with nameless customer service reps. Anyhow, if DC Access offers coverage in your area, I highly recommend it.

My internet connection went down. One call to DC Access and Katy (extremely competent…read morereceptionist) got me sorted in no time. She had Tony & Darnell at my apartment pronto. Between them they solved the problem (a worn out, ancient, cable, along with a vintage router). Both replaced quickly. DC Access a God send to our community - very affordable and no waiting days for an in-home visit, then staying put at home for half a day waiting for someone to turn up. Thank you DC Access.

Where Starry shines is their ease of use and customer service. They're serious and straightforward about no hidden fees. Installation was super-easy.

And when you call them they were very rude. The internet doesn't work half the time.

I called their customer service and again they can't do anything about it . It is not in my control if the equipment didn't get to them when I have told them multiple times that I dropped it off at UPS. DO NOT USE THIS INTERNET PROVIDER. THEY WILL SCAM YOU. THEY HAVE THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE.

When it turned out to be more, he came to my house to diagnose the issue. When it was found to be more than he could fix quickly in-site, he took my laptop with him to repair. He kept me updated along the way and made me feel very comfortable. In our initial conversation he told me, "I respect your data and will make sure to keep it in tact", this was what solidified my decision to use him. The repair was secondary, recovering my data was my top priority- and he did just that!! My laptop is back up and running and all my data has been restored.

DO NOT RECOMMEND -- BILLING, SECURITY & CUSTOMER SERVICE NIGHTMARE…read more I have only had Xfinity Internet for two months since relocating to Upper Marlboro, and although it was cheaper than Verizon, it has been one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had. On July 14, we received what appeared to be a legitimate Xfinity call to pay our bill. The caller had our information, and we even received an Xfinity verification text. We paid, received an email saying the bill was paid, and later discovered serious concerns that our payment and account information had been compromised. When I called Xfinity, I was told my account would be credited by July 20. Instead, I was charged another late fee. I called again on July 27 and was passed around to representatives who gave conflicting information, read scripts, and continued asking me to pay an incorrect balance instead of fixing the problem. Even my installation experience was terrible. The technician asked personal questions unrelated to the installation and made me so uncomfortable that I asked my husband to hurry home. Two months in, I've dealt with security concerns, incorrect billing, late fees, broken promises, and terrible customer service. I will be canceling as soon as Xfinity corrects and zeros out my account. I would not recommend Xfinity to anyone. The cheaper price is NOT worth the frustration.

Was told the old cracked phone I was trading in for new Iphone was reported stolen awhile ago (so why didn't Verizon notify me???) and they could not process new transaction. Manager and staff guy were so frustrating - I was in the store over 3 hours with no progress. Long story short - I was charged TWICE for a new Iphone - staff at the store told me to take it up with Verizon Customer Service -= and I could never get a live person there to talk to me -- and when I emailed or did live chat, it was just AI auto-messages responding back -- and they would not fix the double charge. Anyway, so I ended up disputing charge on my credit card bill. Nightmare.

The person helping me was super nice and extremely helpful. He offered me a lot of options for a new phone + plan. The new process for transferring your old phone to your new phone is much easier now too, as you can do it from home. He explained that to me and I was in and out of the store within 20 minutes. Oh the way out, he went out of his way to hold the door open for me, since there isn't a handicapped door and I thought that was really nice - most people do not do that.

I have used other services such as Comcast and Verizon and wish I had found this service sooner.
