    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.

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. 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. GPC responded with the same copy-and-paste denial every time: "Your equipment is the problem. We have no other complaints." But this is not true.
