    Spectrum - I wash my hand of your services. I have been with Spectrum/Charter Communications, since they came to Lincoln in 1993 https://www.rsinc.com/history-of-spectrum-internet.php#:~:text=Charter%20Communications%20stands%20today%20as,humbly%20in%20the%20year%201993. when at that time, they took over Time Warner which my family had been with for many years. My stomach turns when these companies treat the ones who are paying their wages the way they do. These companies are so big partially because of their customers paying their bills. Which I have always done religiously despite all the price hikes, changing modems and or equipment and outages. I dropped the cable service when the price hike took it up close to 200.00 a month. I remained with the internet services simply to keep my email address the same. The service started out around 58 dollars for internet only. Then over time, hikes have taken it up to 98 a month. I have had trouble with my internet for a long time off and on. I finally got sick of the issues and decided to take action to cancel services. I attempted to cancel prior to the new billing cycle but was told on the phone that they are unable to verify who I am, even though, the next call I made to them verified just fine, that I would have to cancel in person. They could not do it over the phone. I went in person the first chance I got and canceled the service. I was told by the nice representative at the location that they would be happy to offer me a cheaper rate if id stay. $40.00 a month. Where was that offer when I called at the time of the last price hike? I was also told that the modem I turned in was outdated and that changing the modem may help. How often do I need to come in person to get a new modem to get my service functioning properly? Why wasn't that suggested previously? Surely, they can see on their little electronic screen when the last modem was updated? I have had outages weather related twice in the last 2 months. I can understand that and over look it. But the other outages that I have experienced over the last year and especially the last two months im having a tougher time overlooking. I then was told that I would have 1 more bill at the 98 dollars to pay. At which I asked to have that refunded since I tried to cancel prior to the billing cycle. Which they would not budge. I explained the frustration of not having service and the number of times I have called over the last two months. This time I got the excuse that their records only are showing the last two phone contacts made in September. Regardless I have the phone records showing I contacted them in August twice as well. I would be happy to bring my phone in to show that contact proving that I did attempt to make this right in August which I got the excuse we have no way to receive that. I offered to bring the phone in person, still they didn't accept that either, stating there is no where to bring it to. Again, more excuses. Then they state that per their contract, they can not refund the current bill. I suppose not, because that would mean that the CEO would not make his millions this year. https://www.insidertrades.com/charter-communications-inc-stock/christopher-l-winfrey/ Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. disclosed its CEO pay was 138 times its median employee's pay for the fiscal year ending in 2024. https://aflcio.org/paywatch/highest-paid-ceos. It's not like I am asking for a refund for every month that service was interrupted. I'm only asking for a refund for the month that is billing in which I no longer use. I wonder what the contract says about providing service?? Oh wait, that's right the contract only applies when they might have to right a wrong, and chose not to. My bad, I thought a contract applied to both parties in the contract. I believe I have been wronged on this situation, but then again, these companies have the right to do what they want to. I believe these companies get away with this type of thing way too often. I am sure many customers feel the same in a similar situation. On the flip side if I hired a lawyer to try and fight this it would end up costing me more than the 89 dollars and they know it. Either way I loose and they win. Obviously, this is not a company I personally would recommend. I hope that my experience gives you a little bit of information to think about to help you chose whatever internet service may be best for you.

    If you're moving into any apartment where Great Plains Communications (GPC) is the only ISP, please…read moreread this first. What I've experienced since my building switched from Cox to GPC in June 2025 has been months of outages, excuses, and complete abandonment as a paying customer. I had zero issues with Cox for over three years. The day GPC took over, everything fell apart. Within 24 hours, the internet began failing constantly -- and it continued every day for months: 6-12% packet loss Random disconnects throughout the day Latency spikes up to 2,000ms Video streams freezing for minutes Smart devices disconnecting Multiple devices (wired and wireless) failing at the exact same time For reference, fiber internet should have 0% packet loss, 1-10ms ping, and no random spikes or unexplained disconnects. GPC's network never met those standards. Support was a nightmare. I spent hours repeating scripted steps and being blamed for everything -- my router, cables, motherboard, Firesticks, TV, even "too many devices." When techs finally came (every 2-3 weeks), all they did was replace equipment over and over. Seven routers, multiple wiring swaps, no improvement. Never any real diagnostics. Every failure clearly happened at the modem (their equipment), but GPC refuses to acknowledge that. Then GPC cut me off from customer support entirely. A technician told me that leadership (specifically Janelle Allison) ordered customer service not to speak to me. Staff could "get in trouble" for trying to help. Only two people were allowed to contact me -- and neither responded to any email or call. I am now blocked from support for a service I am required to pay for. But this is not true. GPC techs told me they replaced five modems in my complex the first week. Another unit had a failed ONT replaced through the leasing office. My neighbors confirmed their TV apps buffer constantly and their devices disconnect all the time. A resident in a completely different Omaha complex replied to my Reddit post -- same issues, same forced switch from Cox, same denial from GPC. Someone using GPC at their workplace said they keep Cox as a backup because GPC drops constantly. GPC's public "Elite Wi-Fi" upsell (advertising no buffering, no lag, no frustration) basically admits the problems exist -- unless you pay extra. Bottom line: GPC denies evidence, blames customers, provides no real troubleshooting, blocks people from support, gives false explanations to regulators, and hides behind exclusive agreements with landlords. If GPC is the only ISP where you're moving, understand this: You will be locked in, blamed for their failures, and left with no support. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

My landlord's response: "If you don't like it, you can break your lease and move." I filed complaints with the FCC, BBB, PSC, and Nebraska AG.

This was a slow day, I waited to become an account manager to upgrade, and after all that they didn't accept my phone for early trade in because of a "scratch" that was so small, they needed 3 sets of eyes and magnifying glass!!! If theydve told me my phone wasn't eligible, I would've been in and out in 5 minutes. Instead I talked to customer service for 45 minutes with the manager played Tetris and stood on his high horse.

My wife does most of the routine business of the household that involves paying bills so I had minimal encounters before... The first big issue was with my mother, first as a customer and then when she passed. Prior when she was living she had dementia, another sibling had taken her to Verizon, she had similar upselling and charges, for things she wasn't capable of using. I had to get involved there to get that reversed so all she had was a flip phone so she could make calls. Also got autopay going.... she couldn't remember to pay bills.... .That was a BIG mistake. Following her passing, multiple months trying to get the service and bills stopped. Even w/POA and Executor documentation, I could not get into her account to see status or do anything. They kept insisting on a PIN... Local store said there was much they couldn't do, online they wouldn't talk without a pin from her account. Even to the end, the store was saying I still had to pay some of her bills even for months after she had passed and couldn't use the service. My wife set up Verizon service for us some years ago, mostly because I was doing a lot of travel in remote areas of Idaho and Verizon served that area. Most recently, I was looking for a new phone. I went to this location twice... FIrst, to check out general options as my phone was starting to have problems. The guy very obviously was after a sale, but he at least gave me what I needed...He couldn't let me see account info or specific numbers because my wife opened the account so was account manager status, even though one of the phones on the plan was mine, payment by our joint account. But I understand why there is caution giving out account info and he got me what I needed... approximate likely cost/potential promotion options for me to replace my phone. A week or two later I came back with my wife.... to get me account manager status and to discuss together which phone to get as the phone really needs replacement.... Basically I asked exactly the same as the first guy prior to ensure those promotion offers were still accurate and I would know about what it would cost me..... but it turned out to be a nightmare. He kept trying to frame the conversation to his way of selling on features I might need, etc. He refused to give me comparative prices or whether the promotions were the same and if we were eligible. He said he would have to work up an individual quote. Back and forth, over and over, I did not know which individual one, it was between several partly based on price. He kept insisting I ID one phone to work up a quote. Finally, I was angry.... no yelling or profanity, but really tired of this guy and his refusal to give me basic comparative numbers... I told him I wanted quotes on this, this and this... three different phones. Period. He walked back into that locked employee place in the back.... Was gone about ten minutes... During that time my wife and I decided we did not want to do business with this guy. My wife suggested we tell the manager we wanted someone else, but I was done w/the place. I mentioned to another employee we were leaving....as we were walking out I saw him walking out that back room.
