Terrible customer service. I would avoid this store. I went in last Wednesday to pick up a phone…read morethat was ordered for me by my company. I was told we would have to order it through our B2B rep even though they had one in the store. We (my company) placed an order and it was to arrive on Friday. Friday came and no delivery. It showed up on Monday which did me no good since I flew out to head back home on Saturday. I requested it be sent next day air and was told they would. Here it is Wednesday and the phone still has not shipped. I was told that FedEx did not pick it up. I told them to call for a pick up or have it sent UPS next day air. They said "that's not how it works". They told me to contact my IT person and have them order a new one to a store near my home in FL. Absolutely terrible service. Victor the Assistant Manager does not return phone calls or reply to texts. How difficult is it to ship out a package?? Had it not been for the fact that our entire company is linked to Verizon (unfortunately), I would have gone to AT&T. The much better option for wireless service.

I called Astound, with the thought process of canceling the service because of the auto increase…read more However, Dominick (Customer service Supervisor) was able to turn the negative experience into a very pleasant one. He handled everything professionally and figured out the relevant plans to be applied in order to win the customer experience. I was on the phone for almost 2 hours though. So, not very happy about that.

Astound is using a very old Americast Infrastructure to push out their 1Gbps package, and 1.5 Gbps…read morepackages. Unfortunately, their download speeds come close to the advertised speed for the package, the upload is a whole nother story. Astound can ONLY DELIVER ASYMMETRICAL Internet Speeds to their customers which is unheard of in 2026........ This basically means, you might get the 1Gbps or 1.5Gbps Download Speed but your Upload Speed is STRICTLY CAPPED AT 20Mbps..........this is unacceptable. Especially when their ONLY COMPETITOR is Xfinity, and their Internet speeds ARE SYMMETRICAL (equal Download and Upload speeds), so if you buy the 1Gb package from Xfinity, you get 1Gbps Download and Upload Speeds. Their is ONE very major drawback to Xfinity though. They CAP your Internet Data ALLOWANCE to 1.2Tb for the month. I would easily blow past that Data CAP as I work from home as a Network Administrator. So when you surpass 1.2Tb of data, they start OVERCHARGING YOU A TON, and you might even be downgraded as far as Internet Speeds go. So you have to pick between these two shitty deals in Chicago and NW Suburbs. I was with WOW when Astound bought out the Americast Infrastructure from WOW Internet. At that time, the Upload Speeds were capped at 60mbps on the 600Mbps/ 1Gbps Speed package. I noticed the drop immediately when they capped the upload speed from 60mbps-20Mbps. This was due to too much traffic on the Line. Astound only has 3 nodes on their Line. Xfinity has 6-8 nodes per Line. Hope this helped, Astoud is losing thousands of customers a month with this sly bait and switch BS with the Upload speed. I'm moving on to Xfinity next month, 20mbps is waaaaaaayyyy to slow in 2026........

I have been struggling for years with the internet and Verizon in my part of McHenry, IL E-vergent…read morewas recommended to me by a neighbor in my Homeowners Assoc. The process to make contact was very efficient. Within in business day, I had someone make phone contact with me and schedule and appointment and installation. Install cost is very inexpensive. I coordinated this with my Wi-Fi tech advisor for my home .E-vergent's tech showed up right on time and got to work immediately. Within a few hours I was operating and in business throughout my home. I work at home, so my internet connection is extremely important. I highly recommend E-vergent and have already recommended them to my other neighbors. Here are some more pros (there are no cons): -- System in place for two weeks now and works flawlessly, even in a snowstorm. Line-of-sight-system -- Unlimited data (HUGE advantage) --Very fast download speed --Very consistent performance - no slow downs at any time night or day --Performance over Verizon is 180 degrees better (I dropped Verizon) --Extraordinarily affordable compared to Verizon, AT& T and others. Cable not available in my area. Just as well so I do not have to put up with Comcast. I am very happy with E-vergent and would highly recommend
