Spectrum Cable and WiFi are a necessity for me. The worst part is everything is working fine. I…read morewoke up to a red and blue flashing light. At 3am I had a lengthy conversation with a very nice Spectrum Employee. She couldn't resolve the issue by phone and I had to make a service call appointment. Then I am at the gym and get a text the problem is resolved and I can cancel my appointment. I waited to get home to make sure and naturally it was still flashing. I again called and was told "as long as everything was working ignore the lights." "Or, keep my appointment." I'm keeping the appointment. Frustrated I searched Spectrum Website and learned it's most likely the battery in the modem. Who knew there's a battery inside??!! The two representatives sure didn't. I realized it myself when I read it next to the light on the modem. At this time, except the flashing lights, the other two indicator lights stopped working this afternoon. My daughter thinks the technician will replace the modem. I hope so! A battery installation costs $60! I really don't know if I can recommend. I do know people that have Verizon FIOS and they have issues too. All these companies are frustrating!

Cable pixelates!! Bill is outrageously high for what you get, which is ALWAYS, consistently lousy…read more TO BE VERY CLEAR: I do not recommend Spectrum Cable!!! You will get EMPTY PROMISES, with a BIG BILL, no matter what!! Spectrum tells you that you will have a high speed wi-fi, BUT, you won't!!!! And, after you pull your hair out from their empty promises, and you decide to do a phone call, (some people say they would rather have a root canal, than have to call the cable company) the Spectrum people will tell you that they see you're not getting the speed you should have, they will say one moment, and they'll probably push some button and say give it a moment claiming that the speed will be higher. From my own personal experience, you get a bunch of empty promises, and lies as far as speed on your Wi-Fi. The cable always pixelates!!! it's just awful that the bill is going to be three figures and when you pay the bill, don't be surprised if two weeks later they tell you your new bill is ready. I feel like I pay every two weeks BECAUSE I DO!!!! and it's adding up to $400 a month and I don't get anything fancy!!! I only get aggravation! this is my least favorite company. And that's why I plan to cancel my cable with this company. I will just keep the Internet. I have bought Roku. I will plug it in and see what happens. I just can't take these high bills anymore. I'm sick and tired of it. Empty promises, empty promises!!!!! READ MORE, is what I will do. Books, articles, newspaper, magazines!! The money goes out to them. Service is crappy for me. And my neighbors! And a few people that I speak to who have been foolish enough to be fooled by thinking they will get a lower rate on their phone bill. Do not even get me started!!! (Suckers!!!). If there is cable trouble you're going to have problems with your telephone service. You want a telephone line you can depend on because you may be in a situation where someone's life depends on that phone call. so don't think you're saving money. I would not recommend getting phone service from this company. Heck I don't even recommend getting cable service from this company. You know, the public can comment when the license for this cable company is up for renewal. Just saying!!

As has been said before by many others, this company has bad customer service. Far worse than the…read moreservice is their dishonesty. Astound is a good name for these people. The low level customer service and the way the company bilks customers is astounding. They claim to be giving you a five (5) year price lock. In my case, two months later they change the name of your promotion to Promotion for Life. They say that this means that only the taxes can go up if they do, but not the price for the service in my case, $40.00 with $5.66 in taxes for a total of $45.66. Do not be fooled. All their promotions, regardless of names, can be renamed and repriced at any time. They actively promote Autobilling, which means they take the money directly out of your bank account each month. It is not worth getting a $5 reduction to have these crooks get access to your bank account. Once you provide them with your bank account number, they can help themselves to any amount. Prices with Astound change at the drop of a hat. They do this by claiming that your plan's name was changed. What this means is that they hiked the price. Am actively going to see if I can find a better deal elsewhere. These people are nasty and only interested in bilking customers. These are seasoned scam artists.

This have happened about 8 times over the course of 5 years I have used them. I would have changed so much sooner if my building took other internet providers but was unfortunate with only having rcn available. Every time I've called to tell them that they increased the prices and I'm really unhappy about it, they miraculously have some promo that brings it back down to original price. ALSO, be warned that you also get charged a modem fee which they don't really disclose until you call to ask about it :) if you are stuck like me, just buy a modem yourself so you can save HUNDREDS of dollars per year and don't be stupid like me. There is even one charge that says construction fee and maintenance fee attached to the bill "separately" that totals your "50$" bill to 91$ :D Overall very awful business practice I hope I could give it 0 stars if I could

While my mother and I waited, we observed several employees standing around chatting and joking with one another rather than assisting customers. After about 15 minutes, another customer walked in and was asked if she had a reservation. She said, "No," and was told to wait. Less than two minutes later, she was called ahead of us, even though we had already checked in. At that point, I honestly felt like I should treat this like a DoorDash or Seamless delivery, leave the cable box on the floor, take a photo as proof of delivery, and walk out. That's how disorganized the experience felt. The service was extremely disappointing. There seemed to be no awareness of the waiting customers, no clear process for serving people in order, and very little urgency from the staff. This experience fell well below the level of customer service I expected.
