Great Fiber Speeds, But Sales Team Needs Work I had AT&T…read moreFiber installed on 11/15/2025 in Fultondale, and the internet speed has been outstanding so far--much better than I expected. If you've seen their ads or visited their website, you might not believe it, but the actual service has been excellent. That said, the installation process was a mixed bag. I had to deal with three sales reps who clearly didn't understand the product. They couldn't answer basic questions and kept repeating vague explanations about Wi-Fi, regardless of the actual topic. Thankfully, the technician who did the install--Julius B.--was fantastic. He was professional, knowledgeable, and answered all my questions clearly. He really saved the experience. While I'm impressed with the service so far, I'm a little concerned about what might happen if I ever need to call support. But for now, everything is working as expected.

Horrible service and inaccurate info on outage. Internet…read morewent out early Jan 11,2025. I contacted AA and were told they were working on the outage. They said techs would get it restored as quickly as possible. It was 2+ days before service was restored. I do not believe tech were working on this small outage (one street) for 2 days. I don't k now if it was because this was a week-end or not, bubt after waiting all week-end, service was restored Monday morning. I would like to know why it took so long to restore the coverage and why we were given misleading info on the outage.

XFINITY is by far the worst customer experience I have ever encountered…read more My family had Comcast/Xfinity for over 20 years, and had constant billing discrepancies. We were told a rate plan verbally, and ALWAYS received a bill which was 20 to 30% higher (before taxes and fees). My wife would call, and after 1 to 2 hours on the most frustrating call you could imagine, the bill would be changed for that month, with a VERBAL assurance that it would remain the promised rate in future bills. The following month was always - ALWAYS at the higher rate again. In August of 2025 (we had no viable options until them in our area), we switched to a cell based provider. We weren't able to get acceptable service from them (bad signals), so we discussed the situation and switched back to Xfinity for internet only. This is supposed to be on the $50/month plan guaranteed for 5 years. This service is dependent on providing a checking account and routing number to Xfinity to draft each month. SAME CUSTOMER SERVICE NIGHTMARE BEGINS. Xfinity began sending us notices that we had a past due bill. We signed up for AUTO PAY - this was supposed to be our payment method. My wife visits the store in our city, and was advised that our bank declined the payment, and we needed to check with them. Our bank said Xfinity never tried to draft the payment, and there were no blocks on our account. AFTER receiving the next LATE PAYMENT notification from Xfinity, i spent the next 78 (YES - 1 hr and 18 minutes) on the phone with a foreign operator trying to explain our dilemma in dealing with Xfinity. I was promised VERBALLY that our account would be eligible for the $50 per month rate as soon as we furnished the payment information for the current bill. Once that payment was taken care - IN THE SAME PHONE CALL - I was advised that we weren't eligible for the $50 rate. I will be cancelling Xfinity immediately and will NEVER GO BACK. This company is a scam from the beginning This billing discrepancy is a company policy to generate revenue. When Comcast filed for bankruptcy several years ago and used the proceeds to buy NBC/ Universal - the overbilling started. Everyone I know who uses their services experience the exact same problems. They should be shut down as a giant criminal organization.

Our internet is not nearly as fast as they advertised, I should say we are paying for their fastest service offered in our area. It routinely disconnects for a few seconds, just long enough to have to reset the connection on the smart-tv or computer. Their customer service is impossible to get hold of then just tells you to reset your modem, which of course I did as soon as it went out. They make you do it again before bothering to try another solution while acting surprised it didn't work. I have the general feeling that customer support is just one giant delaying tactic hoping you'll go away. A truest terrible company.

I called back in September to see if I can get my bill lowered as I had a massive increase in my bill. About $65 increase. I called customer service who transferred me to the loyalty department. When I got to the loyalty department, the gentleman I spoke to back in September told me he can get my bill down from $188 to $133. He told me my price would be fixed at that price for 12 months. Well 2 months later, which is today, I get my bill in the mail and notice my bill went up $10. So here I go again contacting customer service and I spoke to someone named Tina. Tina told me that there was an overall increase in charges for everyone of $10. Remind you, they just had a huge increase 2 months ago! So I told her I have been a customer for 15 years and I don't think it's okay to have your company lie to customers and tell them their bill is fixed at $133 for 12 months if they are going to just increase it. So she transferred me to the loyalty department and I spoke to someone named Trent. This guy was absolutely terrible! He told me there is nothing he could do besides offer me a $200 Visa card, which won't be dispersed to me for 60 days! How the hell does that help me?? First of all, 60 days is so far away; second of all, my bill still won't go back to where it was, even though I was promised this fixed monthly payment 2 months ago! So I told them I will consider canceling my service with them. And he was quick to sign me up to cancel. Did not even apologize that I was lied to by HIS company. I told him I wanted to speak to a manager and he told me "there is no reason to speak to a manager as they would only offer the same thing I just offered you, the $200 visa gift card." He wouldn't even put the manager on the phone and he was so quick to cancel my service. Last time when I called back in September, once they heard I would cancel, they worked very very hard to get me what I needed. This time, not so much. I will be canceling and will be letting my entire family who has direct tv that they should cancel too. Stay away from direct tv. They will just steal your money and lie.
