    I've had Mediacom since 2005 and since I've been a long-term client, I think my prices are too high. But the services are fine. I've used my computer at home and I use my internet for my cellular activity when I'm home for my Wi-Fi, and cable TV. I lose service off and on because of the pole at the back of our house.

    They’re the only company that offers the type of internet service that I’m able to get in this area. It’s a pretty big area but they are the only provider of the level of high speed internet that they have in this area. Their reps have been decent at best. If you have a billing issue, then they seem to be okay. If it’s a technical issue, they don’t seem to be very well prepared to handle those issues. The internet quality is very inconsistent and I also don’t feel like I’m getting what I’m paying for.

    I called Mediacom about a month ago because I wanted to upgrade due to the fact that the signal was not very consistent, so I wanted to go with a higher-up package. I had upgraded and asked if I needed to get a new modem since I’ve had my modem for a couple of years now. They said no and that I was fine. But I noticed over the next few weeks that nothing was changing. My internet is still feeling about the same even though the package that I upgraded to should have been about 10 times faster. I called them again last Friday and it turned out that I was supposed to get a new modem that never showed up. I’m supposed to be getting it today in the mail. Also, I’m supposed to get some kind of credit on my bill.

    At this point, I would actually recommend people go with Frontier, and that's saying something. Over a week ago, I lost access to my e-mail because it was "tied to my previous address". This was an address I had moved from 3 years prior. I have had this e-mail for 6 years and moved multiple times with no problems. I have now lost access to multiple business accounts since I can't retrieve my passwords and new phone doesn't have credentials saved.

    Opened a ticket on 3/27. Was told I'd be called in 1-2 days. Called back on 3/30 because of no response and told that ticket was closed. Opened a new ticket and told I would be called in 1-2 days. Called back today on 4/6 and was told the second ticket was now closed as well. Opening a 3rd ticket today and told I will be contacted in 2-3 days, sure I will.

    Apparently the issue is with their system. When you move, they don't move your account, they close your old one and open a new one. However, your e-mail is tied to your account, and when it is closed, supposedly the system sees it as a closed e-mail account that can't be reused. Again, I moved 3 years ago and everything was working just fine with my e-mail until 3/27. I have now lost my main point of contact with all the businesses I work with, my children's teachers, and my Cub Scouting groups since e-mail was my main contact.

    Compared to the other companies, Mediacom Cable has been better. The installation was smooth. We recently upgraded to 1 Gigabyte packet for an extender for our basement, and the speed has been great. When I upgraded to this new package for about the same price with some new TV stuff, the rep was very helpful in saying, “Hey, look, this is a better deal and it’s the same price with these options.” So, she was great. I’m glad I upgraded. There have been some hiccups where when a lot of people get on, or during the day when everyone's connection will go down for a little bit and then come back up. I’m trying to do remote work and the interruptions can be problematic during a meeting.

    The home Wi-Fi interface for interacting with the modem limits your options by a lot. I’ve always been a bit of a power user and have typed in admin and password to get into my router to try and do some customized things, and so it is very limited in terms of how much I can do with the one that is provided. I understand the fact that they don’t want too many people fouling things up, but it seems like there are a couple of other features they could add in there where it makes it easier to track who is online and easier to limit internet usage.It would be nice if they could manage those types of settings, so that way I could prioritize my work computer or work programs compared to what other people are also on.

    Also, it would be nice if they have some indicator for what the local network traffic is like -- the one that gives you a red, yellow, green indicator of what the local network traffic is. If I knew the local traffic was green, and yet I was still having problems, I could connect with my cellphone, like use the Mediacom app to say, “I’m gonna login,” and locally, if they see what the traffic is like, then I would say, “Oh, well, then I need to troubleshoot something with my router and actually just reset it.” So, I feel like I’ve reset my router when the problem is a little traffic is the problem, and that is unnecessary. Nevertheless, overall, I like the service. I’m a heavy internet user even without work, and it seems to all work well. I like that it works well with Macs, iPhones, PCs as well as anything else.

    Good Afternoon Stephen,
    We appreciate you taking the time to review your rating on the Consumer Affairs website. I do show you have mentioned having some problems when you are doing remote work. I do show you have added port forwarding to your router. Sometimes from previous experience that can cause problems with your router. Just like when software goes corrupt. You might try deleting your port forwarding and resetting the modem and see if that helps. After you have confirmed it is working slowly add the port forwards back in one at a time and see how it goes. If that does not solve your problem and you are still having problems, please contact our customer service department for further assistance. Mediacom appreciates your business.

    I have my phone, my internet, and my TV all with Mediacom. We moved into this house in 1976 and we live close to a freeway. People on phones and the old CB radios interfered with our signal, so we went to cable tv. Before there were satellite TVs, Mediacom was the only cable company that you could use here in Des Moines. They didn't have any competition. Their name was Heritage Cable and it's been the only thing that was available in Des Moines for years. Even before we moved here, we had cable TV in the home that we lived in. We've been long time customers of this.

    Six years ago, the rates got extremely high, and I called to see what we could do about that. The customer service at that particular time wasn't very helpful though, so I said, "Fine, see y'all down the road, Jack." We bundled everything and we went to DirecTV, which I loved. They had the absolutely best customer service and technicians, until AT&T took them over and it was just downhill from there. Also, they had CenturyLink internet service and it was so slow. It was terrible. I went back to Mediacom for their internet service. It has always been very good and reasonably priced. Speed is good too. Once in a while, there's a problem with the service, but all things considered, it was not very often. They've been good.

    When AT&T DirecTV got so crappy, I told my husband that we were gonna try Mediacom again for a while and we would see what happened. It was hard because there are so many different things out there that you could stream, so I didn't know what we would do. When you can get practically everything for $60 a month, and Mediacom's or DirecTV's rates go up, it makes it hard to stay a loyal customer.

    When I had Mediacom come out and install the cable TV service, the first technician called and said he was on his way. He was within the two-hour window and I thought he would be here in the next 20 minutes, but he didn't show. An hour and 15 minutes later, I finally called and I told them I was supposed to have a technician. I said that he called that morning, said he would come and that he was on his way. I didn't know where he was on his way from, but I looked at the phone number and it was from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. That's a two-hour drive. In the meantime, they sent somebody else who was a nice guy. He did a great job too, but some of the stuff wouldn't load. He couldn't stay here for six hours waiting for something to work though. He had to get on to his next appointment.

    We thought that the problem would correct itself overnight. It made sense, but the next day went through and all the stuff still wasn't loading. We had to set up a second appointment, and the second guy that came out was from Des Moines and he is a Mediacom employee, not a contract employee. He did a great job as well. He made sure everything was loaded. He discovered that there was a problem, contacted somebody and got that fixed. By the way, the lady that I called to set up that appointment was super. I really liked her. She did a great job. She said part of my order was still held up and that she would get that processed. She said that it may fix the whole thing, but they were gonna send somebody out anyway and that's all been good.

    I used Mediacom Cable for the price, but it has gone up pretty high. It's kind of depressing. I thought it would be cheaper. I can’t see why I have to pay more than $200 a month just to watch TV. For the average person who works for a living, 200 a month out of his paycheck is outrageous. And I’m on social security. I like the service, but they’re missing two channels that I like- AXS and channel 20 out of San Francisco Bay Area. Those are important channels to have.

    I called them about AXS and they said that they were gonna do nothing about it, which made me think that when the contract is over, I’m gonna have to switch. And for some reason, they don’t have channel 20, but DirecTV and DISH both have it. There’s stuff we like to watch in the daytime and can’t watch it. There are a lot of live rock concerts on AXS that I like to record and watch when I have company over. I used to have that when I had DISH Network. I didn’t like DISH Network, but I liked that they had AXS. I also have the internet and telephone.

    I’m moving right now and I wanted to get Mediacom unhooked from one place to the other. Now, I have to wait until the 29th before somebody could even show up over here. I’m now finishing moving into the new place and I should have somebody here within the last few days. I can’t see waiting a whole month to get my service changed over. You pay that much per month, and when it comes time to move from one house to the other, you gotta wait over a month to get your service in. But they took it out really quickly. We didn’t have anything at the other place for the last week. With the Coronavirus, I’d like to see what’s going on. But, we don’t have any news, which is not good.

    I've been pretty happy with Mediacom. We've had some hiccups, but I was able to shut down the router. I pulled the plug on it for about a minute and got it back. It kind of reconnected everything and it seemed to be fine. I always try to fix it myself first. If I can unplug it, restart it, and get it fixed myself, it's better than waiting on hold. Also, the only thing I'd like to do is pay less for it. 100 bucks is pretty steep.

    Unfortunately, this review is NOT good. I have had Mediacom internet for about 7 months now and the service takes a second place to dial-up. I'm not sure if the problem is my location or what, but the service works about half the time, if that. It is constantly going in and out and it's not for a second in and a second out here and there, but it's more like for several minutes. The problem is, I only have one other option for internet service and it's Frontier, which I have never used. Now, on a 50/50 gamble between the two services, I'm stuck with Mediacom until the contract is over. I'm not sure how other people are actually having good experiences with this service, but I'm shocked.

    The only reason why I was on Mediacom was that my son was living here with me and he needed the internet. And because I did not have a computer, I had to come to Mediacom so they could hook it up specifically for him so he could use it downstairs. Now that he has moved, I'm going to disconnect the internet part on my Mediacom.

    I'm not happy with them. They’re charging me too much money and I think it’s outrageous. I was paying 173 and because the lady said my contract ran out in March, they raised it another $20 or $22. I don’t even use the internet. The account's been on and I told them after this COVID virus thing, I probably would make other arrangements because I didn’t like it. I might go to another company. I also don’t know why they have me to have those sports channels because I don’t even watch them. They have that to me up high. That’s totally unnecessary.

    They need to make sure they don’t have somebody up there that’s got a foreign accent. Because sometimes their broken English is so bad that you can’t understand them and then when I ask if they can repeat it, sometimes they have an attitude, and I have to apologize because they talk so fast. I also try to tell the people that I talk to who are Spanish to slow down so I can understand what they're trying to say.

    I’ve had Mediacom cable for years with my parents and I like it except for the fact that some of the channels got taken off. I got that Disney Family Package which had the movies that we could get through the premium channel but now that’s gone. In order to get movies from Disney, you have to go to Disney Plus. There’s no Disney Junior. If they put more family-oriented, kid-friendly stuff on here, that would be more appropriate than some of these stars. I understand they have to have that for the adults but the kids need something just for them. I have had Mediacom and I prefer them, but I want them to have more programs for family. My son loves the educational channels and he’s only six. We all watch what we wanna watch. Travis watches his sports package. Troy likes his Nick Junior and Disney Junior. I’m in-between everything. But we use Mediacom on a day-to-day basis for communication and entertainment.

    Some of the people who have come and hooked up the service weren't really nice or friendly. Some have been good but the one who did the hookup in my Dad’s room was kinda rude. My son, being six, was just asking questions and he got up, left and got rude. We’ve also had the box where we moved to and they didn’t even put the cover back on. I had to call. Then they left the cord out dangling within a doorway and my son fell and got a scratch. My brother who can't see also fell. But there was no compensation on those. That is okay but when I'm saying that they’re getting hurt, the Mediacom people might not have done that that way. They did come back and put it back the right way. But the guy was kinda rude. Those things aside, I am satisfied with Mediacom.

    Long time customer, bill is being changed to something we don't need even without asking us. Can't get a good response. We did have your 250 internet usage and didn't even come close to using that, now we have to have pay for 400 and don't need that much. Called once and was connected to a not very nice guy, called later and the next guy could't help me. Not a good customer experience.

    1. When I joined Mediacom last year the tech installed the box in my garage and my phone connection in the garage. He didn't come into my house. After this winter going to the garage I called and had the internet box and phone moved into the house. You charged me $40+. Yes I paid it. Not sure of your customer service logic.

    2. I have a cell phone and when I am walking around my house my calls will drop. It's getting frustrating. I would like some assistance in understanding why this happens.

    Thank you.

    Good afternoon Barbara,

    Thank you for your review and valued Mediacom business as it is greatly appreciated. We sincerely apologize about any concerns that you might have. Normally, if we send a technician out to move equipment, run a new line, or activate an outlet there is a service charge associated to do so. If your internet service and landline phone service are dropping, we could always troubleshoot with you. If that doesn’t help, we can send a technician out to your residence to see what may be causing any intermittent issues you’re experiencing. If it’s your cell phone service though, we won’t be able to do anything with that unless it’s on WiFi calling since cell phone service is a separate entity than Mediacom. We look forward to helping you. Please call us anytime at 855-633-4226 or text us at 66554. Have a nice day!

    When we got Mediacom Cable, they were the best. They're always pretty good about everything but I've had a problem with my phone and my internet. I don't get my Star 69 and Star 67. I'm supposed to have two-way calling, and I haven't gotten that since I got the phone in here. I've told them about it many times, but they don't seem to do anything about it. The internet also shuts my husband and me off completely. When he's on his phone, it'll drop and everything goes out and then it'll come back out. The internet is supposed to be extreme and mine is not extreme. Since they've changed it, it's not the best but they want me to pay $30 more on top of what I'm paying to get the best. We pay around $200 every month and I don't think that we should have to worry about issues with our service. Other than that, the service they provide is great, as long as they keep up with the issues.

    We sincerely apologize about any service issues that you might be experiencing. Is it only with the YouTube app? If all basic troubleshooting has been done such as resetting the cable box from power and force connecting to TiVo service via network settings, then we would like to have technician check the issue out. If the technician determines it’s a cable box issue, they would then swap it. If we do swap the cable box, you would lose your current DVR recordings. You might be able to retain or transfer recordings onto the new cable box following the instructions listed below in the web link. Please let us know if we can setup a service visit for you.

    Mediacom Cable's speed made me decide to get internet from them. I use it to play video games all day, however, the service's quality is so-so. The connection drops too often. When it does, I usually reset my modem and then call their 1-800 number if need be. Their response has been decent though and the technicians have been friendly. Although I'm not very happy with the last one. I had an ethernet cable running from my modem down to my basement where I have my studio set up for recording music. He cut that cable so he could run his coaxial cable through the hole in the wall that I had put the cable in. It was a $150 ethernet cable and he took it.

    Thank you for your review and long-time valued Mediacom business as it greatly appreciated. We do sincerely apologize about any pricing concerns that you have. If a customer is not paying full price rate for a service or services, they would be under a promotion. All our bundles/packages increase annually until the service rate reaches full price. Once that does occur, the customer may always inquire and see if we have any lower rate packages available to them. As far as the channels, we unfortunately don’t have a la carte service. The closet thing we have to that would be if a customer had our internet service and then they would subscribe to a streaming service. Rates have risen due to increases in taxes, fees, surcharges, maintenance expenses, re-transmission fees, and other expenses. We try to keep them as low as we can while implementing faster internet speeds, 24/7 support, SMS texting, video-on-demand, and much more things that benefit the customer.

Prior to that date, there was a payment made on 01/29/2020 for $115.49. The initiated payment of $113.10 was reversed and credited back to your bank account. Since the $113.10 was credited back to your bank account, that amount should have been paid on 02/29/2020 instead of the $2.39. We hope this clears things up for you. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. You can reach us anytime by calling 855-633-4226 or text us at 66554. Have a nice day!

    Thanks,

    We dropped cable because it kept tiling up and it would take a week or so to get it fixed. Cable froze up a lot so we dropped it. We only have internet which is good most of the time... not perfect. At times it just won't connect but overall better than the competitor.

    Original Review: March 14, 2020

    When I tape a program, I usually do it so that I can watch at my time of choice and also I can fast forward through all the ads. Recently I find that instead of actually taping a show that I tape every time, I am sent to "On Demand" to watch what I had already taped, instead of allowing me to watch the taped show. This is frustrating to me because "On Demand" does not allow me to fast forward. So now I am stuck watching all those ads. Why is this changing? Can I go back to the way it was about six months ago? I really dislike watching all the ads, and it wastes my time. I used to be able to get through an hour long show in about 40 minutes. Now, with the ads, it takes 60.

    The building I live in use to receive free cable from Mediacom, all a tenant needed was a convertor box and you could watch cable. So when I moved in I got a TiVo box and internet, was paying for internet service and the equipment rentals. My bill was about 70 dollars a month. So after 7 months of having service with Mediacom the owner of my building decided they weren't going to pay for the tenants to have cable anymore so Mediacom came out and disconnected everyone's cable.

    At the time I got internet service and the TiVo box they told me. I wasn't able to get a bundle package because of the building already receiving a cable signal. So when I called Mediacom to add cable TV to my internet service they tell me they can add it, but I'm gonna have to pay $200 a month. I ask them why their bundle package for new customers is only 90 dollars a month and they tell me I'm not eligible for new customer pricing. So I say to them, "None of this is my doing. This all has to do with you guys and the building owner, at the time I got service you wouldn't sell me a bundle package". They tell me nothing they can do about it.

    I am so sick of companies offering new customers deals that are way better than what they offer their already existing customers. What that's says to me is once you're already a customer they could care less about helping you. For every customer that leaves Mediacom I'm sure 4 sign up for new service. I have exhausted myself contacting this person, that person with Mediacom explaining the situation, no one cares. I refuse to pay DOUBLE what a new customer pays. That is completely unfair.

    I will be returning all of Mediacom's equipment and will be switching over to Dish or DirecTV, which is a real pain for me and I'm not happy about having to go to satellite tv, but since Mediacom is run by its computer system, according to Mediacom customer service, and there's no way for a human being to override certain things, they have left me no choice but to go somewhere else for my internet and television needs. I'd give their customer service and retention department a 0 if that was a choice.

At that time, we could offer promotional pricing. We look forward to assisting you in reestablishing an account with Mediacom. Mediacom appreciates your business.

    I’ve had service since February of ‘19. I’ve had more issues than I haven’t. Went 2 months without a hitch and June of ‘19, my speeds dropped to 50%. I pay for the 200 and I’m lucky if I now (currently) run at 35Mbps. I have tried to work with them on fixing it and still, they play games around the problem. Multiple modems and techs later, still no resolution. Refuse to pay the bill now. Switched to 500Mbps and I get 160Mbps. They won’t admit that I’m not being provisioned my services properly and when I have asked multiple time to have a supervisor come out to my house to oversee the problem, they never come.

    Seems to me that they enjoy handing out free services because they haven’t got a payment in 3 months from me and my bill hasn’t increased in dues amount. Maybe Corporate will finally step in and look at the evidence for once. I also now see that I’m being charged for cable taxes as well which I won’t pay as I don’t have tv package. Seems they believe it’s ok to charge you a cable tax if your line doesn’t have a filter on it to prevent the delivery of cable services.

On occasion, service slows down a bit when I'm doing something a little more intensive on the internet and my wife is also doing something at the same time.

    Was forced to do business with this second rate provider 3 years ago, when forced to move away from the city due to disability seeking a lower cost of life. I live on a small pension, no SSI. They are all that is available here, & go out of their way to take advantage of the poor in these cities. Original bill was about $30 for internet only. Three years later, that same bill is now $92.30. FOR INTERNET ONLY. 3 times what I've ever paid for similar service. To top it off, the service is shoddy, crashes constantly, and has to be completely rebooted at least once nightly. Worst I've ever had. Speeds test regularly below 20mpbs LATE NIGHT! I've had techs out at least 3 times in the last year when service has completely locked up.

    Searched online last night and charts detail how they are charging on average 5 TIMES more in these small cities, than what others charge for similar service in urban areas. These sharks prey on the rural poor. They offer the same internet to new subscribers for $19.95, so if you live in big city Carol Stream where there are 20 different ISP's, you can dump them for a month, and then resubscribe for that. In a small city you don't get that option. Called for a better rate today, and got a condescending cretin online that couldn't come up with anything other than a reduction of $11 off the bill, after it was just jacked up by about $50. These thieves should be run out of business.

He walked right in four times and even when he saw I was changing, he did not leave the room. Also, he stole my son's blue controller. It was missing as soon as he was gone. I reported it to Mediacom and they did nothing about it. So I'm very upset with Mediacom. But this is the only cable company around that provides the services that it provides.

    I have all of Mediacom's services - internet, phone, and cable. They do have good services but I've had issues mostly with my internet service. Sometimes, it goes in and out. Sometimes, I also have problems with certain channels but the main channel that I have problem with is channel 24. The only thing I hate is that when someone has to come out, you have to wait so long for a technician. There was a problem with our cable and we had to wait 5 to 7 days for them to send someone out to assess the problem. Other than that, it’d normally be 2 to 4 days. I have problems with some of the representatives too. Sometimes, it kinda gets frustrating when they can’t help. Sometimes, they can troubleshoot from the office but sometimes, they won’t attempt to troubleshoot. They would just say they'd just send a technician out when I’ve been with them long enough to know that they can troubleshoot before they send a technician out. But overall, I have good experience with them.

    Sometimes, the prices can be outrageous, but overall, it’s good because there’s no competition with them besides the other companies that we have here. I don’t really like the other company's service because they don’t offer the same thing that Mediacom offers. I also feel like their prices are ridiculous as well. But with Mediacom, at least you can get a combo and you’re satisfied with the price that the other competitors don’t offer.

    When we moved to Mississippi, our neighbor had Mediacom Cable. Our installation went pretty good but the guy wasn’t prepared to put the internet the lines in. We had one line coming in, which was just an antenna. And he used the spot where we had our antenna so we kinda lost our local stations. He had to come back to redo that. Other than that, he was nice. Before, we had to call to get the internet serviced because it went out. Everything was great when we watched Netflix on the TV because that’s what we do. Then it stopped working. They came back and fixed it, but now it cuts out all the time. We don’t really pay attention if the internet is slow, but our TV is not so great anymore.

    If you are looking for Internet Mediacom is a good option but they care little for loyalty and will continually raise your prices. The internet itself is good but since they are the only high speed provider in most places they will overcharge you and have data limits. I advise using your own modem as well. They charge $10 a month to "rent" their modem. I happened to have a house fire and even though I paid them over $240 in rental fees for their modem which only costs $139 they charged me $139 to replace the lost modem.

    I do apologize for the loss of your home due to fire. I know this can be a stressful time. On your final bill that was mailed on February 27, 2020. The fee for the modem is showing. You should be able to submit this to your insurance as a loss of property. You do have an option as you mentioned to purchase your own modem. As soon as you contacted Mediacom of the fire on 02-11-2020 we did stop billing you for the service. Since the modem is a claimable charge due to damage or theft unfortunately the charge would still be sustained. Mediacom appreciates your business.

    Television off. Called Office and was notified that a repairman could not be here for 5 days. That is unacceptable. It is particularly annoying in that outage occurs every 2-3 months and it is always a few days before someone can fix it. They would raise hell if you were a few days late in paying your bill but think nothing of not servicing your equipment for days. Each time they send a man out I ask for updated equipment and that never happens. Nice polite repairmen but they are obviously following company policy. I am satisfied with the product when it works. Internet is more stable and easier to customer fix when it is interrupted. Shop around before you buy this product. The broader problem is that there is not a good option.

But they were doing their job and I don't have any problem with them.

    The quality of their service has been pretty good but Mediacom is losing their reputation. A lot of people that I know are starting to switch because of the fact we lose service a lot, especially in our area where I am.

    I was customer from the time Mediacom came to my area until about three years ago. Service was always inconsistent and speeds NEVER reached the advertised speeds. This wasn't acceptable, but this was the only real option I had for service that also had unlimited usage. Once they started metering usage, this became completely unacceptable. I began monitoring my speeds more carefully. My service was initially 20mbps and I increased it to 50mbps to get a higher download limit. My speed never exceeded 12mbps, and was typically much less. Once another company began offering unlimited service in my area, I switched to them. I am getting 80mbps for around the same price and my speed rarely dips below 60mbps.

    Unfortunately, I did review the account and we quoted before the visit that if no problem found you could be charged a service call fee. When our technician ran the test with his meter he received as he quoted, "900 plus speeds. WiFi out of his router 300 to 400. But his device gets like 100". Per these notes that would confirm that it is your equipment. You own your own modem and if the equipment you have in your home does not have the specializations to reach 1 Gig service. It will not receive 1 Gig service it will delegate down to the speed the device can support. Mediacom appreciates your business.

But I like that I can get some of the older shows because I hate the shows that are on. I'm a senior citizen, and we're hard to please.

    Mediacom had raised my bill, and I wanted to know why. I called up and I got a slight discount, so I was happy with that. And then, again, I tried to get rid of some of those sports channels. I'd like to get a better package. I had stopped the phone service at one time, but then my girls didn't want me to have just the cellphone because I use that quite a bit.

    I was with Mediacom for 3 years before I moved to a new place and din't need the service anymore. Ended up finding out I was paying a lot more than what they had originally said. That is how I got to learn that they hook you up with a good price and then they increase it over time! When I got my own place again I called around and once again Mediacom offered a competitive price. I knew they were going to try to hike up my prices again so I told the representative that if they were going to do that then I didnt want their service. They said I could call after a year so they could find a 'new and better deal' for me.

    A year has gone by now and they are hiking up my prices. So I called the service line to find the 'new and better deal' they had promised. Surprise surprise! there is no 'new and better deal'. If I want to keep my current price they are going to impose a 60 gig cap on my internet. Otherwise my price will go up to $60 and then eventually to $80. How is this acceptable when there are other providers in the area (CenturyLink) that offer the same or better internet speeds with no data cap at $49 with a price for life guarantee?

    I tried to give Mediacom a chance to retain my business but they didn't even try. I either take the 60 gig cap on my data or find someone else. Well guess what? After my call to Mediacom today I called Century Link and they were happy to have my business. Save yourself the trouble, and the price hikes, by going to CenturyLink from the get go!

If you went over the 400GB it would be $10.00 for every 50GB you go over. Hopefully that clears things up a little on your billing. I wish we could keep our prices as low as they were 7 years ago. But with increases in operating expenses unfortunately the overall cost has increased. Mediacom appreciates your business.

    My Mediacom experience has been really good. The installer was professional, and the installation went well. They're faster and with better quality that’s why I stay even though it’s expensive. I don’t like the fact that I can’t get all the discounts that the new customers get. I’ve been with them so long, and they don’t ever give us better deals. New customers get the promos, current customers don’t. But personally, it works well. Whenever it’s on, it’s on.

We do have packages that would bundle together Cable TV, Internet, and Phone. If you are purchasing your services from independent companies it may save you to look at our bundles. It would package Cable TV, Internet, and Phone at a discounted rate. We would be happy to discuss that with you. Mediacom appreciates your business.

    Mediacom Cable was easy and simple, and they were the one most readily available then. They have a lot of available channels and I use the sports channels the most. Movie channels just get too expensive and there was no deal readily available, so I just cut out Showtime and Starz. The installation was okay. The guys that work for Mediacom personally did a good job. The contractors were in and out because I had to call them back a couple of times and ask stuff, and had something done.

    Mediacom is the only service available in our area. We live in a rural area. We've been with them for seven and a half years. We’ve got phone, internet, and TV. The internet goes on and off but the TV is pretty good. We’ve had very few episodes where we don’t have TV. But when the internet goes off, our landline goes off as well. So, we’re lucky that we have cellphones. But it’s not ideal. I get a kick out of the advertisements they do in the area in terms of extreme internet when really the quality of the delivery of those services is not consistently good. We’ve had technicians come to the house and they would say that the infrastructure is not adequate to deliver the speed of the internet that they’re selling us. But I was kind of hopeful because I’ve seen them putting in fiber in this area. Other than that, they do respond when we call up. I’ve called a few times and they’ve been able to deal with the issue on the phone and reboot the system.

    Mediacom Cable is the only franchise approved in our area so I went with them. A couple of months ago, I had a TiVo system that didn’t work. It took almost two plus weeks for Mediacom to get a service person here. They said they needed to order a new box. When the tech got here, he worked through it, but it took him quite a while. Apparently, he didn't have a lot of experience. Not that he didn’t try. He called and they diagnosed it a lot from off-site. But in the end, after tinkering around for quite a while and driving across town to pick up a different box and to bring it, it turned out that it had gone dead. It just wore out. I could’ve just gone across town, pick the box up, brought it back, and hooked it up.

    I talked to their rep about the cost of the big issue recently and they put me on a priority customer plan. It's a preferred loyalty thing and that reduced the price quite a bit. Somewhere in the neighborhood of $40 a month more. But they didn’t tell me the TiVo was included in the first three months on that plan for free. So at three months’ course the thing jumps up $15. And then the next month it was $6, and then the next month it was around $10. So three months in a row there was an increase and it was just for the base. They said a supervisor would call me. And I’m still waiting for that call and it has been a month now.

    So far, we’ve had a few disruptions, but not long ones, from weather or adjustments they’re making. The people that have been here have always been nice and respond to things in the local office. But a lot of times they can’t do anything, because they’re basically a sales office. You can go in if you need a new piece of equipment. You can get it out of their store by requesting it. But the servicing was like they were overwhelmed with the number of customers. They couldn’t get a service person here for that long. They did give me a discount though on the Internet part of the package. So I’m just sitting here waiting ‘til September looking at alternatives. We have a very good local service in this market area, but since they’re not franchised at Marshalltown, I can’t access it. But if I could, I would.

    I just wish they would respond. When they tell me a supervisor is gonna call, I assume that means they’re gonna call. When they told me they were giving me a good deal on the price but didn’t tell me that that includes something that’s gonna go up automatically in a few months, I told them, “We don’t have an agreement here, because you didn’t fully disclose the terms of this thing. So don’t talk to me about this is a contract because it’s not.” I worked my whole career in working with consumer stuff, developing projects, so I know a bit about what isn’t enforceable. They just don’t care. But I’m in a position where when I shop for a price and I’m given one, I expect that that’s what it’s gonna be. I understand the price goes up every whatever period of time for the year, but the part about not fully disclosing the cost is not gonna get them any customer service awards unless they hire a company to do it and say whatever they want.

    Good Afternoon Mark,
    I do apologize you had an issue with the TiVo equipment. I show there are adjustments that were given for the box being out. I have also forwarded the information over to the original representative's supervisor that changed your offer back in September. I let them know your concern that you were not explained the additional promotions that were given to you for 3 months which has caused confusion with your billing. Mediacom posted a notice on your 12/27 billing statement that the Local Broadcast Station Surcharge increased by $2.35 and the Regional Sports Surcharge increased by .04. We do work hard on keeping these rates down. To provide you with programming we deal with a lot of Broadcast Networks that are increasing their rates to us, as well as the increase in our own operating expenses.

    When we moved here in our area decades ago, Mediacom was available so we took it. I haven’t had any trouble with them and the service is working well. But sometimes, the internet stops working all of a sudden and I don’t like that. The whole thing would be out and then I have to reboot it or they have to ping it. That’s the only issue that I’ve had with it. But a few years ago, they had a little fight with one of the other companies about they were gonna drop shows off. They were gonna drop the local stations and there was a company they had a fight with. They were gonna drop the local stations and people were real upset. I remember going down to the local Mediacom store and there was an Army guard there. That seemed like it was a little unnecessary to have all that.

    We are in the south for just a short time. We're snowbirds and my aunt lives down here and my neighbors have Mediacom. There's no contract, too. With calling them on the phone and talking with them, they're wonderful. They're very helpful and knowledgeable and there's not a huge wait time, which is very good. But I don't find the menu on the TV screen as far as learning the TiVo and all that because it doesn't come with anything. As a senior citizen, it's a little more difficult. Younger people will be all on it and can get on the internet and figure out all that stuff, but the wording is different like OnePass means to record. I don't know why they don't just make the wording easier. I would like to see even a written manual.

    Also, it seems like the equipment doesn't perform the way I was hoping it would. I only have it to compare to Time Warner Spectrum, and it doesn't even come close as far as that part. And it's been down like last night, we couldn't watch TV at all, and they're coming today. The internet was spinning. I'm glad there's no contract.

Several months ago, I was informed that I had a TiVo box as part of my plan. I do not know where that TiVo box is, and I’ve never used it. But I know that I have a healthy amount of internet connection because I have multiple people living here and I wanna make sure that I accommodated that. It occasionally drops, but overall, I don’t have a whole lot of problems with it. And I’m sure all companies drop here or there. To fix it, I generally just unplug the modem and wait for 10 seconds to see if that’ll work. And if it doesn't, I give a call and someone helps me out. And it’s resolved fairly quickly.

But I never got a phone and I never had it connected. So, I’m paying for a service that wasn’t even available to me. I tried to cut down, but they said just straight cable would be a lot of money. The HBO, Cinemax, etc were free. You pay $10 a month or something extra, and I stopped that. And they didn’t go down very much.

When he came to the door, I told him, "For some reason, it’s working.” He said, “Do you mind if I check it?” And he walked in the door and he said, “Well, it’s actually working. I’ll cancel the call.” He was really nice. I just started messing with it again. I unplugged it and plugged it back in, and for some reason it went back on, and it’s been on since.

    I'm satisfied with the experience. We don’t really have a lot of options. There are Comcast, DirecTV and U-Verse etc and I found out that it’s going up and up and up. And my next-door neighbors tried everything. They got free TV and Roku and that’s what they're all starting to use now. When you're 72 years old, you get stuck in a rut, and that’s where I am with Mediacom. I don’t have the time or the patience to get out there and every time something new comes along, just try it.

    Mediacom is just another cable company and the TV is the only reason I have it. I don’t want the phone with them because a friend of mine, when that last hurricane came through, she was out of TV and phone for two weeks. My husband has a very bad heart disease and a device was put on the regular house phone where he could call up and put the thing on his chest, and the company would read the defibrillator, so they would know if he was in trouble or not. The office would call in once a month and just have a readout on it. So, I needed a regular phone. To me, it’s just the TV and it has gotten to where so many of the stations are the same thing over and over. Quite frankly, it’s getting boring. At that point, I might just stay with it and forget it. But it’s just the same old stuff all the time.

    Good Afternoon Beverly,
    Let me start with offering an apology that you have had issues with your cable equipment. I have reviewed your account. You are on just a standard cable package that provides you with variety channels. Have you explored our OnDemand service which gives you some different options for television viewing? All the channels you have in your cable package now are free On Demand. You don't have our TiVo service and that would offer you more options but requires our Mediacom internet service. It would be something we could explore with you and what type of television viewing you like to watch. We would be happy to discuss other options we have to offer. Mediacom appreciates your business.
    Warmest Regards,

    Cable is off more than working always. Always have to continue to reboot. Tv shuts off several times a day. Each time they come for a service call they sell you a new device BC yours is so out dated. Lol it never works. Just a joke. Going to Apple or u tube. Such a huge disappointment!

    Good Afternoon Deb,
    I do apologize you have had service issues. I do show that on January the 21st the moca splitter was replaced that runs your TiVo. Has this improved the service? We have also replaced your underground cable. I will follow up with you in the next couple of days to see how your service is working now that we have made those changes. Mediacom appreciates your business.

    We have Mediacom through our computer and our home phone, and their service is great. We’ve always felt like we should back away because the price is a little bit high compared to other things, but they’re always so willing to get somebody out right away. It’s the best one and most reliable.

    She was awesome. Very knowledgeable, right on top of everything. Such a joy to speak to. First time I felt my account was going to be taken care of properly. She informed me of a new plan that was made for someone like me. She could tell me my usage over the past year. She knew I had my own Modem. She knew how fast the download speeds available and how they would work for me. Wonderful!

    I didn’t have good service where I live with AT&T, so I called Mediacom and switched. My Wi-Fi is through Mediacom and it’s not as fast as I want it to be, but it’s as fast as I’m gonna get where I live since I’m at the end of the line. Occasionally, we get kicked off, but we got several things on there. We have 4 cellphones, 2 iPads, and my Wi-Fi for our computer, and a TV. So, Mediacom is the best I’m gonna get where I am.

    When I called Mediacom, they were willing to give me amnesty on the old account I had. I wanted to get some things cleared up anyway on my credit, so that was gonna help me out a lot. The only issue I remember when we were first getting the service was they sent a young guy out who was not thorough. He came in, did a rush job and left. It was like he had somewhere to go. He was fast and didn’t explain a thing. He didn’t get my channels right, and I had to call in. There was another guy that came and he was very nice and thorough.

    Mediacom has the steadiest internet. I had AT&T and they cut in and out all the time. Mediacom does once in a while, but not often. I have a landline, internet, and Mediacom TV. I pay too much for them, and I'm probably about to cut some back. I'm gonna probably cut TV back or get rid of it altogether 'cause I watch maybe 6 channels and that's it. The thing is with the internet line because when the internet goes out, the phone goes out too. Other than that, my contact with them at the office was good. Also, the interactions with the young men that came out here were very good. They were very respectful, went about their job, didn't bother me, took care of business, thanked me, and then they were gone.

    Mediacom is the only provider for cable access in our area. The cable service has gone out a couple of times, but we live on the South Coast so it’s the Bay and it’s almost banana republic. Before 2005 we had Mediacom Cable at our other house, and it was spotty as hell. Every time it rains, the cable went out. Then we had Katrina wipe everything out. Now, the entire system has been redone and it’s good.

    We also have Mediacom's Internet services and so far, so good. It’s filling up quite well. One time, we had a local area outage as they were in the process of pruning lines, and it was for several days. The ease of service has been okay on average. Initially, we were given an older modem and we had so much trouble. It was going out every other day. In the month of December, we were losing cable and Internet, and the Internet access is a huge thing because I homeschool my younger two boys. As with the representatives, I get great experience during normal business hours. But out of regular business hours, there’s a huge difference. Other than that, I had spoken with a person and the technical advice has been spot on.

    We live on a street in the middle of Apache Junction, AZ. My service goes out daily and multiple times through the day. I am not exaggerating. Between new wires, new equipment, new taps, new burial wires, and etc; the problem is still existent to this day. I know at least 20 technicians by their first name. Other than November, we usually have a technician visiting our home weekly. They will lie, create these elaborate theories, and so and so on. The only reason half their lies do not stick is because I used to be a cable guy for a long time. So, I know when I am being lied to. Anyways. THEY ARE HORRIBLE. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS ATROCIOUS. We had to have CenturyLink installed so that my wife would have a consistent working internet source from home to do her job.
