    Severely understaffed! Long wait with only 2 employees dealing with customers
    Richard L.

    It's the holidays , one week before Christmas and the place is severely under understand. I've been waiting here for over 20 minutes just to drop off a piece of equipment. I have no idea how a corporate office has no clue about how to staff a place at this time of year. I hope I never have to come back here. It has nothing to do with the employees or their attitude it has to do with the fact that you're just not enough of them for the amount of customers.

    Great customer service no hesitation was very friendly great attitude and left with a smile.

    Excellent customer service! The staff was friendly, patient, and genuinely helpful. They took the time to answer all my questions and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I felt valued as a customer and would definitely recommend them."

    I wish I could give less than one star. Our internet went down last week. It turned out that a Spectrum wire had been chewed by a squirrel and they needed to run new wire from our house to the pole. But after replacing their wire, our internet was still down. Over 2 days, they sent out 3 different teams as each team claimed what was needed took a different department. In the process of trying to find the problem, they CUT the low voltage wire that we had installed that brought our internet service to our detached office. They refused to replace the wire as it is not part of their equipment. Now we have had to pay independent contractors to discover what they had done and to run a new wire. We lost 3 days of work without internet access and while waiting to get the wiring done are working with a a temporary work around. If you have them out, I strongly suggest you watch what they are doing every minute!

    Ridiculous wait list stacked up with two employees leaving - presumably after their shift.

I pressed the call back feature and that call went straight to voicemail even though my phone accepts calls from unknown numbers. I called back the number provided to me. After an hour of being on hold, I was connected with someone who told me to restart my router- even though my building does NOT have physical routers as our wifi comes with our building. She then told me she was from the SALES team and would connect me with someone from the tech team. After being on hold for over an hour, I was connected with someone else from the sales team?! Luckily, Bernadette was initially from the tech support team and was able to actually do something and restart my router from her end. Thank god for Bernadette or I would have thrown my phone over my balcony. Although in the end, there is nothing you can do besides restarting your router. Bai Connect/Zentro is the WORST, DO NOT GET THIS PROVIDER. I can guarantee all these 5 star reviews are FAKE from people in their company. This internet provider is a SCAM. At least At&T or Spectrum has actual people able to help you or send technicians. I would NEVER get this internet service again.

    UPDATE: THIS CONTRACTOR'S LICENSE IS NOW SUSPENDED DUE TO REFUSAL TO PAY A COURT ORDERED…read moreJUDGEMENT. My initial review stated that I was forced to file a lawsuit against Brian Staller / Circuit Genius (legally known as: Performance Telecomm) for breach of contract. The matter is now permanently settled by the court. After the vendor filed an appeal, the Los Angeles Superior Court ruled in my favor and found Circuit Genius / Performance Telecomm liable for breach of contract. Owner Brian Staller calls this a "frivolous lawsuit" in his response to my initial review, but the facts prove otherwise. In his response to my first post, Brian called the lawsuit "bananas-level false" and "frivolous." The fact that I won a judgment against this company not once, but twice--once at trial and again on appeal--means that two judges ruled in my favor, finding Circuit Genius / Performance Telecomm in breach of contract. The court's decision validated the vendor's refusal to honor two key contractual agreements: 1. The Refund Scam: The vendor refused to process an agreed-upon refund for a Yamaha receiver (which the contract stated had "No restock fee if not wanted"). Instead, he attempted to coerce me into a "settlement" that required me to sign a document agreeing to no online reviews, legal proceedings, chargeback attempts or warranty support for work done. 2. Deceptive Practices: After agreeing in writing to return to my home and install a network rack at "no extra charge," he later refused to do so unless I paid a new 2-hour service minimum. He then withheld equipment that I had already paid for and refused to refund the cost of that equipment. **This Contractor is now a Regulatory Liability** More than six months after the final judgment, Brian Staller / Circuit Genius / Performance Telecomm has refused to pay the court-ordered debt. His failure to comply with the judgment has resulted in severe disciplinary action: 1. License Suspension: The Contractors State License Board (CSLB), has suspended his license for failure to comply with an outstanding civil judgment. (See CSLB Record for Performance Telecomm; License 117708). 2. Business Lien: I have filed a lien against this business to attempt to enforce the judgement owed (See State of California Notice of Judgement Lien; File No: U250127585224). This business employs deceptive practices and does not honor contractual agreements. Brian is desperate to get 5-star reviews and refuses to accept anything less even if it means bullying and using intimidation tactics with his customers. A business that ignores its legal obligations, has a lien against it, and has its state license suspended should be a major red flag to anyone reading this. Do not put yourself through a lengthy legal ordeal with this vendor. Proceed with extreme caution.

We live in the South Bay in house that was built in 1921 with lath and plaster so getting good WiFi is not easy. Brian spent a few hours assessing our entire house, Sonos system and TV's. He provided a thorough, detailed proposal that addressed our needs. He did not try to nickel and dime us or oversell as others tried to do. Brian goes above and beyond (went to Home Depot to buy mat black paint to hide marks behind the media room TV). The 4 people who work for him are impeccable and care about the job being done beautifully. We are so appreciative of his work and follow through. Brian came back twice to troubleshoot a technical challenge from old equipment, at no charge because he insisted the entire system work perfectly. Read the many 5 star reviews of Circuit Genius over the past 7 years, which are spot on- so very happy that we did.

    AbWe chose Spectrum over three years ago because it was the only affordable internet option…read moreavailable in our area. For the first couple of years, things were mostly fine. Unfortunately, the last three experiences completely changed my opinion of this company. The first issue started when we had streaming problems. I upgraded our internet plan online to see if it would help. While upgrading was incredibly easy (one click), downgrading was not possible through the app. You are required to call in, which already feels like a deliberately one sided and scammy practice. When I called to downgrade, I was on the phone for over an hour. The agent repeatedly refused to process the downgrade, aggressively pushed me to keep the higher plan, and then began upselling a "free" cell phone. I clearly stated multiple times that I did not want a phone. The agent framed it as "free" for an extra $10 a month, implying it would essentially replace the cost of my previous internet plan. At one point, the agent literally told me I would be stupid not to take the deal. I acknowledge that I should have done more due diligence, but the language and pressure tactics used were completely unprofessional. I eventually agreed just to get off the phone so I wouldn't be late to work. Months later, I discovered I owed over $250 to pay off the phone after the promotional period ended. The agent would not take no for an answer and used manipulation and intimidation to close the sale. The second major issue occurred when I needed to cancel service due to moving out of the area. The agent, named "Angel" (ironically), was clearly trained to resist cancellation at all costs. He repeatedly asked me to find friends or family to take over my service, then suggested I ask my landlord to transfer it to the next tenant. I said no multiple times and explained I was uncomfortable and did not have time for that. No one should be pressured into recruiting others just to cancel a utility service. The agent then told me cancellation would take 35 minutes and that I had to stay on the line the entire time, not on hold. This made no sense, especially compared to every other utility I canceled quickly and easily due to a move. Once I firmly stated I would no longer engage in conversation, the service was suddenly canceled within 15 minutes. My final issue is that since scheduling our cancellation (and paying for an additional billing period), our internet quality has noticeably declined. Streaming issues and speed problems began immediately. We've had to continuously restart the router, even though both the app and router report no issues. I strongly suspect intentional throttling now that service is ending. If any attorneys happen to read this and are interested in speaking with me, I would be more than willing to share my experiences. I highly doubt I am alone in these circumstances. When I previously attempted to file a complaint about my first encounter, the Spectrum agent told me it was "my problem," which speaks volumes about the company's culture. I'm aware that by writing this review Spectrum likely won't care or respond meaningfully, but potential customers should know this is a company driven by corporate greed and sales metrics, not customer service or ethical treatment. Overall, Spectrum trains their agents to be manipulative, controlling, and aggressive. Canceling service should not require standing your ground repeatedly or enduring intimidation. If I had another option, I would never choose Spectrum again.

Their incredible desire and commitment to resolving an issue is textbook perfect. Technical mishaps happen. Upstream carriers fail and that has a rippling effect. But it's how DigiLink responds that was what mattered. They communicated their progress and followed up to make sure all was back to normal. They never lost their personal touch even as I saw them grow which is what should happen. Throughout the years, our commitment with them grew. We added additional sophisticated systems and with their incredible service, there is no downtime to complain about.

Then out of the blue, zero services - no Internet (we have jobs and kids who need access for school) and since TV came over the line, none of that either. Every morning, noon and evening I'd get a text saying restoration of service by X (i.e. 4pm the same day). After a day or two that showed itself to be a straight lie. No human to talk to on the phone, either. This baiting fraud went on for two weeks until we switched back to Spectrum. They owed me $7.01 per their recurring bill and kept it for months and months instead of just sending me a check. Eventually they sent a prepaid MasterCard I never requested containing my $7.01 which, if I activated, screwed me over with annual fees, etc. I finally got in touch with someone in the Philippines who said they'd send me a check; haven't gotten it yet - been about a week. Frontier is about the worst company with which i've had the displeasure of doing business. Shady and unfair business practices at every turn, in my view. Stay always unless you're a masochistic glutton for punishment. Consider yourself warned.

Not only was the connection poor and often lost, the prices were high and the constant feud over my billing with an automated respondent was when I had enough. This is when I first came upon Netwood, and since then I have never been so pleased with my in-house connectivity. The staff are extremely knowledgable and they aim to provide a personalized service by tailoring their product to their customers needs. Beyond the A+ they earned in regard to their customer service, the service is fast and most importantly reliable. Being able to contact Netwood through their direct line provides for a more personalized experience overall. To this day, they have upheld our contract with faith, and their accounting department is very well-structured and we always receive our bill on time. I wish I had discovered Netwood sooner as they were the immediate solution to my ongoing connectivity struggles. I highly recommend them as the #1 local service provider to any household or business looking to gain the most out of their network experience.

For a while I had a good deal with AT&T that got me that slow internet for $20 a month, and for that, I could live with the buffering. Once it went up to the normal price of $59 a month, though, WITH additional $10 or $20 charges for when we went over the data cap, I lost patience. That drove me to look for a new ISP, and I couldn't be happier with Netwood. Now I pay $65 a month for unlimited data at a download speed of 10mbps+ (as opposed to the 2.5mbps that I had with AT&T). When I called AT&T to cancel, the best they could offer to try to keep my business was 6mbps at about $30 a month for a year. And then, of course, the price would shoot up again, and I'd have to keep calling... I'd much rather pay a straightforward, no-BS monthly fee and get a faster connection to boot. I don't know if your speeds or charges will be the same, because I think it varies based on location and business v. residential use (mine is residential), but I do know that Netwood warrants a call or email. In my experience, Bonnie responds to connectivity requests (http://netwood.net/data-connectivity-request-form.php) and emails VERY quickly, so it won't take long before you know whether they can help you out. For your sake, I hope they can!
