  • In my case, I got Spectrum (former TW Cable) but it should work with every greedy Internet provider.
    The modem/wifi (all included) that works for SPECTRUM (for other providers, please do your own research). There are other devices, but this is the cheapest one I found that WORKS fine.

    👍I totally agree with you! Spectrum customer service is trash! If you call them to change/open/close service, they will waste your time trying to sell you crap you don't need. Just disconnect and open a new account. If you try to change your address on their website, you can't, they purposely do this to try to make you call them so they can try to sell you crap you don't need. Since you can't change your address, their website is trash. The address on my account on their website is from many, many addresses ago that I haven't lived at for years. Their customer service at the in-person stores are also trash because they too will try to sell you crap you don't need. Of course there are loopholes around this but I'm not gonna tell spectrum when I already know they're reading this. I'm always one step ahead of them. Spectrum has annoying employees, Frontier has rotten employees, they both suck, roll the dice and lightspeed to the nearest loophole.

      I had much better service with my last cable company, Xfinity, where I used to live.
      In my neighborhood the only cable is Spectrum, They frequently "quietly," go down for 5-15 minutes. I verify through other websites they are down. Their help on their website assumes it's your modem, your computer, your connection. They were down over 12 hours like a month and a half ago. Again, had to use other websites to see if they were up. I have to pay for high data and hot spot on my phone plan to make sure I can do work on my computer when Spectrum is down.
      They play dumb if you call or contact them through their live help on the website. Once you tell them you verified it's down they admit it. Tonight it took them 2 hours for an update and they estimated 15 minutes. If you're always unreliable, why would you tell your customers 15 minutes? I wish cable companies competed better with each other.

    I locked into the T-Mobile $50 bucks a month forever. Charter / Spectrum was such a rip off. 100% love the T-Mobile 5G service. We got stuck with Charter for years as they had a monopoly in our rural area. Worst company I have ever had to do deal with.. Horrible customer service. Lies about canceling you account. I cut the cable line into our house and they still said I was using their data. Lies about not getting their crap equipment back. Requiring it be sent from a UPS store. The nearest UPS store is 3 hours from my location. I have a Zebra printer can I just print the label? No you must take it to the UPS store. STFU. Went to a Charter / Spectrum store ( One of the last ones left in our state) and after they said the couldn't except the box I left it on the counter and walked out. What a scam.
    Never going to have anything to do with them ever again!

      The T-Mobile 5G Home Internet mailing I received says the "price lock" isn't forever, T-Mobile will just give you 1 month of free service when they decide to increase the rate and you tell them you're leaving.

    People can always use their own Modem & Router. Only difference is that you’re not able to use the landline. For people in California or New York you guys can get house phone for like $4~5 a month.
    My modem does up to 2 gigs and my router is WiFi 6.
    I have a Gig specifically because we get a lot of people during the weekends.
    I recently got a house phone and they sent me a modem with a splitter, I didn’t need a splitter since every room in the house has coax cable only the kitchen doesn’t. So I just connected it and it worked, it sucks that you have to use their own modem but other than that it’s all good service connectivity for me.
    People try to have your own equipment, you don’t have to worry about extra fees or nothing. It’s an upfront cost but the equipment can last you years.

    I hear good & bad things about every service. I was on U-verse internet for 8 yrs - an old service and even though they don't charge for the wifi my bill was $80 a month for an old modem. Spectrum with the wifi seems to be the same price at 500mbps. Of course, now I see ATT U-Verse is $55.

      I've been with ATT since '98 and I traded my flawless U-verse for the Air Hub and it runs like crap. Disconnects all the time. I wanted to go to their fiber, but it's not available in my part of town. So I'm looking for grounded internet instead of unstable air waves, lol. I'm confused on where to go and my cancelled Air will be gone by April.

    Most co. won't let you cancel and the next day be considered a new customer you have to wait at least 30 days. What you can do is cancel your service and the next day call back and sign up using a new name they may try and get your social with most companies you're not required to give it to them so just refuse.

  • @AM-nm1oe

    Now they say you need to wait 30 or 60 days to become a "new customer" and they don't prorate the refund so cancel last day of the month. And when you sign up sign up on the first day of the month

    i have a question, been worrying myself sick over this bill cause i went and got a money order for spectrum, sent it through the mail, and it got to them a few days after the due date, well now, i did the same thing and find out from my post office that some idiot put that money order on a different mail truck so now it's not going to be able to get to spectrum and i was told by the representative of spectrum, that they would be cutting off my phone and net and if i wanted it back, i'd have to pay $200 along with a late fee, and im just wondering how long does it take for them to cut the net and phone off like i could have paid them next month (even if it was $200) but other bills got in the way of me paying for this spectrum bill over the phone.

    I hate Spectrum, I'm paying $160/month for phone line for the internet service and wifi. If I purchase a modem from the store do I still need a phone line to hook up the modem? I would think so. I'm tired of playing games with them to pay a realistic price. How can I get streaming without all the junk fees ? I bought a regular TV antenna and get about 60 channels over the air for free...great picture. Now I want streaming to go with it and Spectrum is Evil.

    • @ChuspinSpain
      @ChuspinSpain  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The cable that was connected to the Spectrum modem was the same that I used for modem+wifi that I bought and that I own (so I even save their 5 dollar monthly rent plus any purported need to change equipment when I tell them to disconnect service). Also, if you have a Samsung tv, they have free streaming services, and if you have a Smart TV, there are also many free providers (with adds). Finally, if you have a VPN app, then you can use web sites where you can see many streaming services for free. Hope this helps. Yes, Spectrum is disgusting and they literally steal, taking advantage of people's ignorance. They just hammer everybody to get new clients but, once they have them, they think they can treat them like trash and just exploit them.

      YOU DO NOT NEED A HOME PHONE SERVICE for modern day internet services. Phone lines needed for internet services are a thing of the past, over 20 years ago when "DSL and Dialup" internet was around and required a phone line. Dialup has long been gone and DSL is being phased out by ALL internet service providers. Now it's all about "Broadband/WIFI" and it doesn't require an in home phone line to get internet services in your home. Stop letting them rip you off with a home phone you don't need. Much like your smart phone you can use the internet on your smart phone without having a working phone number. Example: you can connect through any wifi or usb adapter (connected to your smart phone) and then use the phone's browser to get on the internet. You can also tether from other smart phones with internet services. There's lots of creative ways to do it. But, getting back to the point of not needing a phone line to get on the internet. Co-ax cables run from an electrical box (NODES) in your area/neighborhood that are already connected to the home from the phone companies/ISP, that are hard wired from a box in your neighborhood, and ready for the internet, and with a simple call to the internet provider to setup and REGISTER a modem you personally purchased, (no need to rent theirs, they're inexpensive) no home phone line service is needed. Cancel it!!!!!! Your internet connection goes through the phone companies in your area used BY YOUR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER, (unless they have their own cables ran in your area) and your providers OTA network is from wifi Network Towers in the area, again NO HOME PHONE SERVICE needed. At best you should only be paying $40 - $80 dollars a month for home internet, NOT $160. Unless you also have cable channels in your bundle, then that's another story. I'd recommend cutting the cord if you do and just use streaming services, free or paid. A lot cheaper. You said you use OTA free tv and that is GREAT! Smart move by cutting cable, if so? After you purchase your own modem/router, just call them up and return their modem and router and save $100's of dollars per year.
