    One l.

    Most rudest via-phone customer service ive ever experience. And the Prince Kuhio Mall location is so slow moving in Hilo its ridiculous! And they had 4 agents helping customers. Although they have chairs for waiting customers theres not enough some had to stand and wait. I could tell they were tired and irritated. One customer told me he had been there 30 minutes and still waiting. I was finally helped 50 minutes later.. took me 5 minutes to handle my business there. Because of this bad experience, I'm considering taking my business elsewhere because I dont have 1 hour to waste while i am waiting to be helped. Bad service in my opinion.

    Bad attitudes indicative of a system that creates unhappy employees and angry customers. No assistance for proactive former clients to drop off their gear to return. Drone employees with either no brains or handcuffed by corporate bureaucracy. If there is an option, don't choose spectrum, if only to avoid this branch.

    Poor service and connection. They send us more junk mail than all other junk mail senders combined.

    I'm surprised at the very few reviews given the variety of services Microcom provides. I've been a…read moreDISH customer for more than twenty years, and except for the consistently rising prices, I'd have to say I've been satisfied. I had a Microcom technician ( Renee ) bring me a new DISH receiver last month and we got to talking about Internet service. He recommended Starlink. I had never heard of Starlink but after some Internet research I decided to give them a try. For twenty years I've been using Verizon cellular connections. At first I was impressed but gradually over the years my service has been less and less impressive. Over the past few years my Verizon service has become less and less tolerable. The single issue is speed. My download speed is consistently between 1 and 2 mbs ( megabits per second ). On a good day, during off-peak hours, it might range between 4-7 mbs. On what's become a truly rare occasion it might hit 10 mbs, but I can't remember the last time it was that fast. And don't think the issue is with my equipment. I have a very strong cell signal booster installed. Between my wife and myself we have two cell phones, two Ipads, and three MiFis ( cellular modems ) and they all record the same speeds at any given time. I installed the Starlink system a few days ago. The install was relatively easy. Aiming the dish isn't a problem because the dish has motors that can rotate the dish and change its angle to the sky in order to optimize signal reception. For example, upon powering up, the dish immediately rotated 180 degrees and tilted back a little. I must have checked speeds twenty times in the past two days and the speeds I've experienced have ranged between a low of 95 mbs to a high of 175 mbs. The equipment cost is competitive ( around $500 ), the system is pretty 'slick', the quality of the hardware seems first rate, the monthly service charge is reasonable ( $120 per month ), at least given my Verizon alternative, there are no meaningful data limits ( 2 terabytes ), no contract, no cancellation penalty, and a thirty day, money back, guarantee, but the truth is that the reliable connection speed should be selling point enough. I got my Starlink equipment from Microcom in Hilo. The staff, both on the phone and in person, were all knowledgeable and very helpful. Renee is an outstanding technician and if you didn't feel up to doing the install yourself, I'm sure he'd do a great job. I couldn't be a more satisfied customer. This is one of those cases where I'd give Microcom and Starlink ten stars if I could.

    I signed up for Direct TV April 2nd. I spent hours at the store then on the phone with a sale…read moreexecutive who quoted me prices and packages. When the onsite technician came to install they told me that I needed much more than I was told. Them worst part was that they said it would cost me 20.00 for installation and it was 90.00. They do not know what they are talking about and when I went back to confront the manger with the situation she did NOTHING. I would never recommend these people they do not know what they are doing.
