I've come here a few times to return some equipment every time Comcast does an upgrade. When you enter the store, they get your name, and call you rather quickly. I had some cable boxes I had to return when Comcast shipped me some new ones. So, the process was pretty quick and easy. I also confirmed my billing price as I returned an extra box this time. This store is located in the Fruitvale Station Shopping Center in East Oakland!!

Hurry up and wait

This place has really gone downhill fast. I came by to dropoff equipment and there's about 15-20 ppl ahead of me. There's 1 Manager helping people, and the security guard is keeping the waiting list in his head. I called the Xfinity 1-800 number, and there's a way to return equipment via UPS. Don't waste your time coming here. Good news- there's a Popeye's Chicken nearby

The modem/router is pretty sleek looking! This little light is on all the time to indicate a working connection

Let's be clear, Comcast is the worst but so are all the ISPs! But in terms of my experience at this store, they've been all good. I was with AT&T for both mobile and internet for many many years. The fastest internet that AT&T had available in my area was only 50 Mbps. Whereas Xfinity claimed they could offer 1 Gbps aka 1000 Mbps, just a casual 20x faster than AT&T. So I finally made the switch last month. I first came in Tuesday 12/29/20 around 4pm. I was lucky there was no line at that time. I think a line developed around 5pm, so try not to go during rush hour and go earlier in the day if you can. On that day, I signed up for Xfinity WiFi. You can also do it online or over the phone, but there was an issue with the previous tenants of my place and Xfinity said I basically I had to go in person to resolve the issue. It was pretty quick and easy to get set up. They take COVID and social distancing seriously, which is nice. They have a limited capacity of how many customers can be in the store, and everyone else is in a social distance line outside. There are plastic screen dividers between each team member and the customer, and also between two customers being served next to each other. They will always try to sell more to you lol I have been told they get commission for adding mobile to your internet plan. I was open to the unlimited mobile plan because it was much cheaper than my current AT&T unlimited plan, and they had promotions at the beginning of the year for a prepaid Visa giftcard, so I decided to go all in! My phone wasn't unlocked however so we couldn't get the mobile part done on that day. I walked away with an Xfinity goodie bag with the router/modem (combined, 1-piece) and this thing called Xfinity Flex that you can connect to your TV to stream things, kinda like a Roku or Amazon Fire Stick. I was able to set it up when I got home. The only thing that threw me off was the Coaxial cable - my old router didn't use this so I had to find where that thing was at my house lol. They have a handy Xfinity Gateway app to set up the WiFi, and it's really easy to use. They also have a Mobile and Stream app. In terms of mobile, I was told Xfinity uses the same towers as Verizon- so I believe switching to Xfinity mobile is comparable to switching to Verizon lol. About a week later, I came in to get the mobile deal. They had all sorts of discounts and promos going when I went, so definitely check out their website in advance to see what promos they got going before signing up with them! I got a new phone when I switched over and got a discount on the phone. I wanted a white iPhone 12 with 128 GB, but they did not have that phone in stock. The guy helping me had to order it, but then the system was down, lol. He called a few hours later and we were able to complete the transaction over the phone. I then got the phone mailed to me, and was able to activate the phone myself at home. Overall, the experience at the store has been good, I have no complaints!

I'm going to start by saying I'm a fairly picky person. I consider myself fairly hard to please…read more I live in a rural area so there are no services except satellite for TV, and dial up for internet. So after a year of using my 4g phone as a hotspot, with crappy 4g coverage at my house, I was excited to give Unwired a try. Their service is long range WiFi. I have had the service for two years now and have been nothing but impressed with this company. There have only been two service outages due to their equipment, and both times I was emailed multiple times from Unwired, keeping me informed of the situation. They explained what went out, which tower, how long the service would be down, etc. They made me feel like I was important. How often do you get that from Comcast or AT&T? NEVER! YOU have to call and most of the time they treat you like an idiot. Most recently I had a power supply failure on my modem/dish. I emailed Unwired support at 7PM on a Friday night. I totally expected to not hear from them until Monday. Well, guess what? The CEO of the company emailed me back within a half hour and helped me diagnose the problem via email that night! If you are not impressed by now, just wait. I emailed him the next day (Saturday) and asked if there was a local place I could find a power supply. He explained that the power supply was a unique unit and a normal store would not have it. He then volunteered to personally deliver a power supply to my work!! I told him I didn't expect him to do that and I would wait until Monday. If the deal wasn't already sealed at this point, it is now. I will be a customer for life with this company. The service itself is great. It has a very fast upload/download speed. The latency, which was my biggest concern, is VERY fast. I trade futures and a fast latency, or "ping" time is crucial. If you want excellent, small company service, fast internet, and a lower price than the big guys, give these guys a call.

After six years of being an Unwired customer, I've come to realize it is the gold standard for an…read moreISP, especially with respect to service. A recent story: my internet died. Of course, I called Unwired, to see if the network was down. They quickly determined that the problem was NOT on their end. BUT, instead of hanging up the phone, Unwired helped me solve my problem... on my side. This is a rare and wonderful company. If I could give six stars, I would.
