Mediacom's sales team has been helpful. They set me up for Wi-Fi 'cause I wanted to get a little computer. I called and then Mediacom came out, then it didn’t take very long at all to get everything set up. A couple of years ago, I wanted to get golf on my channel and I saw it on Mediacom, but I couldn’t get it. My granddaughter had it on one of the other ones. They had it on a regular channel, so I asked, “Can you get me golf?” They looked around, came back and said, “Yeah. We can put it on there for you.” Now I have golf I enjoy every weekend. I'm very satisfied with the service.

I like the selection of stations and programs that Mediacom has. However, with some of these programs, they do a lot of cutting in and out. I have Starz through them as well as other services in a $130 TV package. I wouldn't change to another provider as Mediacom has been excellent overall. I really like the network.

I've been with Mediacom for a long time now. I have my telephone, cable and internet services with them. The people who come here are always professional and courteous and they treat us well. However, we are not happy with the new deal that they got. They gave us a new remote which does not light up when you press the button, so it is hard to see in the dark. And when you’re 86 years old, you usually sit in the dark. I asked them if there was another option and they said, “No”. It's very frustrating.

Mediacom's team has been really good about answering stuff and helping me connect their system with a TV, a V-Stand and with the controls that I have. Their installers have been really good as well and they hardly ever have to come inside. When the storm came, I was by myself and I had to live about six weeks without any TV. Still, the quality of service I've gotten has been good.

I've been with MediaCom for 30 years. There was a time when I had gone with another company but then I came back to Mediacom because they were more economical. I have cable, phone and internet through them. However, the TV is a little lacking because I don’t get as many important channels that I would like to have. Still, their prices are reasonable. I’m an 87 year old single woman so my income doesn’t go up to $200 or $300 a month for TV.

I didn't have good experience with Mediacom at the beginning. I waited and waited, and then I talked to a rep and she told me to hold on line. I told her that I've been on the phone for 10 minutes trying to get through because of the machine working. And then they repeat it on the machine that was repeated twice. And then when I got the girl, she said she need to get to another department. I asked her to stay on the line while she did that. The music went on and on and on for 10 minutes and she never came back on, and I hang up and then I had to dial again. I had to go through the same procedure again. I was listening to the recording and then when I got the person, they couldn't help me. I was very frustrated.
I was on the phone for almost an hour. I finished after 4 o'clock and I started at quarter to three. I'm 85 years old and I didn't need all that. And I just wanted to have someone to help me with my iPad. And finally, when I did get somebody, they were very nice and the rep was helpful to me. I went from Apple to Mediacom. It was so aggravating.

The City of Solon has a franchise for Mediacom cable even before there were all the packages with the phones and other services. We've had cable with Mediacom for so long now and they're doing fine except when the service goes out. I'm not happy when that happens but that’s the way it goes and things are out of their control. When the cable goes out, I call the customer service and then they tell me what's going on and we go from there. A few years ago, we had a situation where the line was in the trees at the alleyway, but they weren’t sure what was the problem either so they came and looked. They were very good about fixing that and I was really glad that they got it fixed right away. We also got a new box and different things like that over the years but otherwise, I haven't really talked with any sales people. I'm also not interested in changing to other services at this point anyway.

Mediacom was the only company that was available when I moved out here. I'm using their cable services and there are times that I’m wishing that they would change and give me a different venue where I could pick some of the channels I want, but that’s never gonna happen. There are channels I don’t watch and there are ones I like but I’m not gonna pay another $20 a month just to get them.

We used to have Mediacom and then we went to DirecTV. And then we moved one of our friends who's 80 years old into our house because we have an apartment upstairs and she's already used to Mediacom. She would not have been able to handle DirecTV so we switched back to Mediacom. One thing that we like about them is the golf channel. With DirecTV, we had to pay an extra $90 a month to get the golf channel. Everything has been fine with Mediacom. It had only frozen up twice so we unplugged and then plugged it back in.

I've had Mediacom since 1997 and they had a good price at the time. But they keep changing their price all the time, so I don't know if I even got a good price. They also changed their recording where you can't talk to a person and it makes it difficult. When there was a power outage, I tried to contact somebody and I had difficulty because of the recording and I couldn't get to a live person.
I usually paid my bill at their office which was close to my home. But when I went to pay my bill one day, they were closed and there was a piece of paper on the door saying they had moved months ago. It was a really poor sign, hard to read, and it was just handwritten, and very small, and very high up. They moved to West Apache Trail and it's very hard to find because it’s set back. I drove for so long and I was exhausted. Mediacom should have notified us in our bill the previous month that they were moving to this new location. I was really upset about it. I was surprised that they did business that way. People are working in the office and there’s always quite a few people in there, and nobody could make a decent sign. It was really shoddy. I'm very dissatisfied.

We got Mediacom's internet service and it's wonderful. We used to have AT&T and we had the most gigabytes but it would go off and constantly resetting. But with Mediacom, we never have to do that. If we have an issue like we had to reprogram our remote, we called them over the phone and everything has been really great. They’re polite and friendly and we get the issues solved in a couple of minutes. It’s perfect. They were also great when they did the installation. They gave us a heads up so we knew when they were coming, and they also called before they got here. It was just a great experience overall.

Original Review: July 13, 2018
On Friday, July 6, 2018 a Mediacom subcontractor was burying a Mediacom cable across the street from my residence at 233 Pelican Circle, Panama City Beach, Florida. They cut my cable drop in four different places over a distance of about fifty feet. I received no feedback from the subcontractor that they had damaged my drop. I was unaware as to the cause of the loss and did not realize that they were burying cable in the area where my drop was buried. I lost internet service during the time the subtractor was burying cable. The lost service lasted for 6 days. I reported the outage to Mediacom on Friday, July 6, 2018. I was unable to receive a visit from a Mediacom technician until Monday, July 9, 2018, who determined that my lost service was due to an outage of my drop and told me it would take 2 to 3 weeks to restore my service.
It took a special request by me on Tuesday, July 10, 2018 for expedited service (since my loss of service was the direct responsibility of a Mediacom sub-contractor) and 2 more days and two additional technicians to troubleshoot the cause of my lost service and restore it. I am very dissatisfied with performance of the subtractor that was burying cable for Mediacom and less than satisfied that it took a special request by me to receive expedited service from Mediacom for a problem caused by its subcontractor.

Mediacom is a good company. It has been my phone service ever since I’ve lived here and had the phone in my house. It’s convenient to the area that I live in and I’ve not had any trouble with it. If somebody calls, the phone rings and I answer it. Sometimes I’ve put an ad in the paper and that’s always useful because I’ve had some of my kittens and puppies that I wanted to find a home for. And I didn’t have any problems finding homes for all the little animals that I had taken in. I’m pleased with the service. It's very comforting because if you need to call someone, I just pick up the phone and I’m able to call. I’m grateful to Mediacom.

Our internet still does not work, its Frankenstein setup encompasses an entire room. 2 different techs who couldn't tell a hole from their head in the ground. Multiple hours spent on the phone with tech support. 1st tech set up our internet and EVERYONE AND THEIR MOTHER was on our wifi. The first tech ripped already run cables out of the walls. Our wifi never worked and continued to kick us off, the modem he provided us was filthy. 2nd tech refused to run lines or do any kind of attic work. The tech provided my family member with the cut cables and endings and sent him running through the attic to run the line. The tech never went in the attic at all, the tech barely even helped with anything.
The internet now that everyone is hardwired in is still horrible. The ping is outrageous. We purchased our own modem due to the fact of the faulty equipment being brought to our home. With that being said, you wanted $150 for us to start service when you sent an email out with NO COD and made a deal with us that we could only pay the 150$ on the first bill and then this mess happened. We still have bad internet that drops in and out of service. Dropping 10/20$ off the bill is not enough to say the least considering SOMEONE ELSE DID YOUR TECHS JOBS.

Our experience with Mediacom has generally been positive. We particularly like the speeds we receive. We have had a few outages but they have been corrected quickly. The only problems we have had involve trying to set up our internet using Mediacom's DNS servers (very glitchy, wound up using Google's instead) and when technicians visit our apartment complex to start service or fix someone else's service, invariably, they pull the wrong plug and disconnect us. It has become so predictable, we station ourselves outside the maintenance room door to make sure we're reconnected before they leave.

Returned combo box to Mediacom - this solution does not work. Pretty lousy service when tech leaves you high and dry with no solution or followup.

The final result was excellent, internet is great now. But, it took many service phone calls, and two on-site service trips. In all it took about 3-4 weeks to resolve the problem. I had to reset modem at least 25 times, almost every two hours at one point until one day it completely stopped. The wait time between the initial call and the service rep schedule is about 7-10 days. This is unacceptable. Then, when the first service rep did not fix the problem. I had to wait another 7-10 days. Really? This is extremely unacceptable. I called back numerous times to move up the 2nd service call, finally got it moved up a few days.

Seven days after the installation I lost my phone service and I thought, here we go, waiting a couple of weeks to get a cable guy to come fix the problem. Well I call support and they connected to my system diagnosed and fixed the problem in less than 10 min.

To be fair - as long as there weren’t any technical problems MediaCom was satisfactory. Unfortunately I had two problems in the month preceding my decision to use a different service. The first came when my television and internet went out at 5:30 in the morning. I called at 9:15 to find out what the problem was. I was told that there was an outage on my street that would be fixed in 1-2 hours.
At 1 pm service had not resumed so I called back. I was told that there was no record of an outage and I should try rebooting the system which I had done several times before calling. I was also told that a repair person would be scheduled but the date was not for another 2 weeks. After speaking to a supervisor and explaining what had happened I was told that a person could come by in 3 days. Shortly after hanging up my service was restored. The internet continued to be sporadic - much of the time I was running internet off my iPhone. I called to schedule a service appointment and was told that someone would be there the next day between 8 and 12. After waiting all day for someone to show up I called and asked what was going on. That representative said no one would be there for another 4 days and I should have received a confirmation. I hadn’t.
At that point it was apparent that each person I spoke with had a different story and that MediaCom was not a trustworthy company. Friends had warned me before signing ups that there would be problems with MediaCom but as it was the only cable company available. I decided to sign up anyway. Obviously they were right.

And your customer service trying to help has been horrible. I have called in more than 4 times in the last 2 months and out of the 7 reps I spoke to only 2 were actually competent and nice.

Having had 4 technicians come out only 1 humored the idea that something was setup incorrectly, and it was. Every time we call in we get different answers and excuses from each person.

Mediacom the only cable company that I can have where I am located. I also have internet and phone. Now there is another company that offers those but their internet speed is not nearly as fast as Mediacom. The tech guy that came out to hook up our cable and phone and also give us a new modem case we currently only had internet and there was a malfunction with the modem so internet barely worked. He first started off saying we couldn't get cable cause the previous tech that came out told him the was no connection in the building for it and they would have to contact our landlord to find out if they could drill into the siding.
Well we talked to him told him where the cable line came into our building at because we had this issue before. He listened to us and he found the line. He hooked 2 rooms up with cable found out the previous tech that hooked up our internet didn't even make sure connections were secure and there was debris inside the wires that caused the connection problem. He changed out the modem anyway checked all connections put in new Jack's that were previously blocked. He hooked up our phone which we still don't have a phone connected to it. He moved fast and was very efficient. He chatted with us about all kinds of stuff while he was hooking us up. One downfall is it took an entire month for us to find out our home phone #. Nobody gave it to us.
We had to call customer support to get it. He directed us to tech support when we had questions about changing our internet name and password explained many things we had no idea about when it came to the internet and how to control the cable. We loved having him here. He was even friendly with our dog who was barking Every time he had to come back in from her kennel. I am not however satisfied with the person you placed our order for us. Never did the mention that you get billed a month in advance for cable cause internet doesn't do that. So when we got our first bill for all 3 products it was a 2 month bill and it was almost $300.
Now if I were to know that I wouldn't have ordered the services because I live on a fixed income only $962 a month and I wasn't able to pay the whole bill. I also only get my check once a month which means I'll also have a high bill next month which I'll only be able to pay the amount I was quoted it would be. So I have a feeling I'm always going to be behind which really upsets me. They should really make sure they address this and have those sales reps tell customers about the billing so they are prepared for it cause if I was prepared for it I would have made sure I saved some money out of the month before check to help cover it. Just saying. But other than that the 2nd hookup was great the tech was awesome. We were informed of almost everything he needed to tell me. I gave it 3 stars because of the billing issue and the fact that I was being billed for a phone # that nobody provided the # to.

Mediacom has been my Internet Service Provider at my weekend home for five years. On May 26th I arrived for the Memorial Day weekend holiday, and found that my service was out. When checking through my router, I determined that there is no signal being delivered to my home. We managed to get through the holiday weekend (without any internet service) and Mediacom sent a technician the following week. The technician called me on May 31 and confirmed that there was NO signal being delivered to my home and that he would put in an order to fix the external cable feeding my home. I followed up repeatedly and was advised that the problem would be resolved on June 22 (almost a month after the problem was reported)! June 22 came and went, and when I arrived on July 2 for the Independence Day holiday I discovered that NOTHING HAD BEEN DONE!
I spent all afternoon on the 2nd talking to multiple Mediacom Customer Service Representatives and Supervisors. I was assured that technician would be dispatched on July 3rd. After waiting around ALL DAY, my phone rang and when I picked up there was no-one there... I immediately called Mediacom, and was advised that my appointment was cancelled! It is hard to understand how and why a customer could go almost six weeks now with NO SUPPORT OR EXPLANATION as to why my service can't be delivered!

Mediacom is simpler to use and it has all the channels I like to watch. I have basic cable and Star. I also use TiVo for music while my daughter watches the Disney Channel. Their team is great, very friendly and helpful. The installation was very prompt and fast. However, the quality of service is up and down. And they have to be honest about the pricing. I'm very disappointed in how the pricing goes up without my knowledge and no one has an explanation for it. It happens after 4-5 months and it makes me want to give up the whole thing.

I've had Mediacom since they came to our town probably 30 years ago and we have the phone and the cable. All installers who came have done very well. Then Mediacom has bought a whole bunch of channels that is brand new to me and I really don’t need but I'll get used to it. I've also gotta get used to the change of the channel numbers since the numbers on our old one was just one number and I didn’t have to punch in two or three numbers to get the channel. Still, the service from Mediacom so far is good quality and has been reasonable price but if the cost goes up, then I will be calling.

I've had Mediacom's internet service for 30 years. If anything goes wrong, I just go down to the store and get a part, bring it home and put it on. The service comes and goes. And today, I had to put a new splitter in it in the line because the line going to the modem apparently was dead. I had to go to the hardware and get a part.

Okay so Mediacom came and installed internet to the house down the street. While they were installing their internet they disconnected my line. They had gave me a drop line that ran 200 yards down the street thru my yard because of the previous burnt up line that was here. They never came and buried the drop line. They are still charging me for a rental modem even though I had bought my own modem in Jan 2018. No one has called me back from tech support. And my estimated repair date is 7/18. I am fed up. If you can get internet from anyone do it. Do not use Mediacom. By the way they are the only cable internet available in this area. So I am going with Satellite. Can't play PS4 but at least I can pay my bills and surf the net.

And I’m not happy with it. I would love to get rid of it, but unfortunately, I do not have that choice where we live. And when you depend on it as much as I do for business, it’s a major problem.

I have been a Mediacom customer for cable and internet for about 15 years and have always used the AutoPay feature for most of that time. I recently had to obtain a new debit card and have tried repeatedly for several months to get AutoPay up and working again. I kept getting bills with past due amounts so I would call again and try to get it set up. I spent a ridiculous amount of time on the phone and on the internet trying to pay my bill and get the AutoPay working again.
This week I received a bill for close to $500 because AutoPay STILL is not working. I called on Monday and spoke to yet another representative who wasn't able to help but she said she would go ahead and process payment for half of my bill that day, as I was not expecting to have to pay almost $500 at one time. She gave me a phone number to call and discuss my complaints. I called that number and was on hold for 20 minutes before I gave up. I called again, same issue. Today (Wednesday) I called again and was send to COLLECTIONS!
I have been trying to work with Mediacom since April to pay my bill and get AutoPay working. I called in April, again in May, and again in June to try and pay and get this worked out, and what did they do - sent to me COLLECTIONS! I spoke with Brandon in Collections and found out that the woman from Mediacom I talked with on Monday did not process my payment for half the bill because there was an error??? What??? It turns out that if you try to pay your bill with your checking account and you have the same checking account supposedly set up on AutoPay, they cannot process the payment. I gave them my new debit card number back in April and my checking account information at the beginning of June since the AutoPay with my debit card was not working. Neither has worked for Mediacom to this point.
Brandon explained that this is just how their "system" works and could not find any notes from my call in April about setting up AutoPay on my debit card. He gave me the distinct impression that he did not believe me and made me feel like some kind of deadbeat customer. I told him I felt that Mediacom should waive half of my bill for all the trouble I have been through and all of the time it has taken me to even be able to pay my bill due to their bad service - I have been trying to do this since April!!
FOR THREE MONTHS! He seemed to think I should be happy that they waived the small late fee each time I called in and made sure I understood that I should be taking responsibility for these issues. I should have been checking my accounts to make sure their AutoPay was working, etc. etc. So after nearly 15 years as a loyal customer, and making phone calls for three months to get my bills paid and AutoPay set up properly, I am informed that I am at fault and that he will be happy to take my payment for "no charge" over the phone with a credit card. Wow.

I've been with Mediacom for years and their cable service is okay, but it’s too expensive. I’m by myself and I don’t need a lot of channels and I’m not a sports fan. So I'm paying for things that I don't care about and I’m not getting any service out of. Also, the cost is going up every time you turn around. I need to get a package where I don't have all of those channels if I don't want it. Then when we had someone out here, the young fellow didn’t know what he was doing, though I called back and got the help I needed.

I had to move to a small town a year ago and the apts I moved into don't let us use satellite TV, leaving Mediacom. I on disability and live alone with very little extra money for frills. Their choices for anything decent on TV is sad. I'm stuck home a lot and it is my entertainment. I also need WiFi and was told had to take the telephone also. Just how it is. They didn't even hook up the phone portion, didn't explain anything to me. The internet was always down and it would be days before they would come. Their answer is always, "You live in a brick building, it won't get better." Should use Sprint. And please don't give me the same as you give everyone else. I have the app, too bad it won't work when I have no Wi-Fi. So I still pay my bills and move along.
A year later, I was very ill and one of my friends wanted to help me out financially, Mediacom is killing me! So she called and said she was me and moved me to some new package with just a few channels that would save me a couple of bucks. When I awoke in the morning I had basically a few bizarre channels I didn't even ok and still over $100 a month. I called immediately to see what happened, they said I changed and so forth. As I figured it out and explained it is too bad. To get even close to a decent channel lineup which is the very next package I had to pay for another set of $30 fees, had just paid them that morning. Didn't know when they could be there.
A few days and was I aware I had 60 whatever it is of internet not the 100 I'd been told and paying for over a year. Oh and now my bill after all the fees is $236 a month, I don't use the phone, WiFi rarely works. I'm attached to a 2 year contract and if I cancel I'm going to be sued and pay out the nose anyway! And my rates will go up next year. $20 a mo approximately. I can't afford this, I need desperately to just stream my TV but I'm ill so much and pretty much alone. What am I supposed to do? I'm scared if some kind of a financial emergency comes up I'm just on my own, me and my Cable TV. That's a horrible company!

I attempted to downgrade my service and I have gotten the absolute run around from Mediacom. After having spoken to now 5 different representatives I have been told 5 different things. Mediacom charged me over $30 more than was stated on my online account as due and will now not refund me. I was even told by one of the representatives to 'keep my receipt' for one of my transactions because I would be charged for the equipment regardless of my having returned it and would need the receipt to fight the charge at a later date. I have upgraded service before and have not been charged an additional fee. Yet, downgrading includes a nearly $30 charge, which every single representative I spoke with failed to mention to me. I wasn't even told that a technician would be on my property.
I am being punished for not requiring the services I originally signed up for and wish so much that there were another viable option for internet in my area. Honestly, the amount of time I have spent to keep Mediacom from stealing my money is getting ridiculous. All I want is to be charged for the service I am using. Why is that so difficult? I am constantly having to scrutinize my bill to assure that Mediacom hasn't slipped me a charge that should not apply to my household.
I'm even being charged taxes on services that I do not currently have! I just don't understand why the company's customer service is so horrible. Just having my own modem makes my life difficult. I'm having to constantly remind the company of this fact to avoid the $10 monthly modem rental fee, then I never have my bill amended, they just credit my account which further complicates my bill and makes it ever MORE difficult for me to keep up with what I'm being charged. If I could live without Mediacom, I would. Hopefully someday, I will have the option to use another carrier. For now, a poor review will have to do. Something's gotta give, Mediacom. You're abusing your customers and it needs to stop. My internet service is good, I don't have connectivity issues, but I'm certainly paying for it.

I made a mistake in believing that Mediacom knew what they were doing. I talked to the people in our local office here and that's when I got the original pricing. We agreed on a price but the first bill I got was $8 or $10 higher than that. I just got a second bill and it's higher than the first bill. I don't know if it changed, so I'm not a happy camper.
The installation process was nice and while the quality of service was good, it only works fine when it doesn't go out. One of the reasons I changed was because I had satellite and it was going out every time the weather was bad. And Mediacom went out the first time we had a storm so I'm not real happy about that either. Also, the remotes don't work fine and are not conducive to use. If I wanna flip back to the previous channel, I can't just hold the thing in my hand. The button is not by the channel button like it is on every other remote in the world. It's down on the bottom right. It doesn't appear to be ergonomically designed. All in all, my experience with Mediacom is iffy at best.

Easily the most terrible internet/cable company I’ve ever had the misfortune of being a customer of. My area only has Mediacom for cable, so we got service. I'm not even a month into my service yet, and I’ve already had to call tech support SIX TIMES because their service messes up so often. One of the six technicians was helpful... the other five were clueless and made it clear they could care less about my satisfaction. One “customer service” rep even promised me a credit since my service wasn’t working, and supposedly scheduled a technician to come to our home and resolve the issue.
Five days later when the supposed appointment was set, no one showed up. Why? Because the rep not only didn’t schedule the appointment, he didn’t give me the credit either. If you’re looking for a cable/internet company that will give you constant frustration, who won’t provide the service you were promised, and who will LIE to you, Mediacom is your company. One of the most unprofessional and pathetic companies I’ve ever encountered. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
Updated on 08/05/2018: I made it clear in my original review how horrendous Mediacom has been. Since my last review, things have gotten even worse. Earlier today, our internet went out and while I was politely explaining our issue and my frustration to the rep, he HUNG UP ON ME. It would be remarkably unprofessional if that happened at any time... but, after constant issues since we signed up in May, it’s beyond ridiculous. I was finally able to get a rep that didn’t hang up on me, and she is doing her best to move up an appointment to fix our internet a WEEK from now. While I appreciate her effort, the company is a joke if it cannot resolve an issue that they are blaming on the modem that THEY provided within several days. If it cannot be resolved by Tuesday, I will leave Mediacom for literally anyone else, because there is no way it can get any worse. Worst company EVER.

Every year we have start up troubles with Mediacom. We got the phone and the computer line and the installation is always a bit shaky. It works for two days and doesn't. And then a guy comes out and he goes, "Oh, this wasn't done right." He gets it fixed up and we're good as gold for the rest of the season. We use this only on a temporary basis. We live in the US for six months of the year and then we resign or cancel or do whatever and then in October when we get back here we start up again. So we're not a full-time subscriber.
I wish it didn't cost so much to put it on vacation, like with the monthly fee to keep it active but not use it. We would certainly go that route but it's so much money just to have it sit there that we cancelled it every year and then have to go through this initial start-up troubles again the following year. But the overall quality of service is absolutely perfect. And the Mediacom people are perfect to deal with. They came out and fixed our problems. I just wish we could skip the problems right off the bat. If we can get past that start up thing they're as good as gold.

I got basic TV and a telephone with Mediacom and I'm paying $175 a month. When I first started out back in the 60's, it was about $20 a month. But now it's getting out of hand. I'm retired and the bill is too much for what I get. I called them and asked if they could do anything about the bill and all I was sent was a TV schedule for the prices. So, I wasn't satisfied with my experience.
Other than that, I've been with Mediacom for years and over the times, my interaction with their reps have been pretty good. I had a lot of trouble with my phone for a while and I was a month and a half or more without a phone. So, all I had was my cellphone to get hold of them to get somebody to fix it. Finally, when I got somebody, they had to change or put some newer parts in, so it's okay again. Once you get a hold of their customer service reps, it's not so bad. They're up in Virginia now and the number they gave me was a runaround to finally get somebody that I could talk to besides getting a machine. So, that part was hard. Finally, I had to go through billing to get to talk to somebody and once I called billing, they talked to me and set me up.

I ordered Mediacom internet on a Monday for my new home. That Friday they were to come out and install it for me. They never showed up. Apparently the person who took down my information got my address and number incorrect. So I rescheduled the installation for the following Monday. The service tech shows up and says I should have gotten a package in the mail with my equipment...never did.

I moved from Iowa to Minnesota about 1 year ago. I live a very small town (pop: 2500) and have 2 choices for internet: Mediacom and CenturyLink. Since CenturyLink thinks that 12MB is "fast" these days, I chose Mediacom. What a mistake. I bought a "package deal" even though I didn't need a phone and I dislike cable's double dipping of charging me monthly AND showing the same ads I get on free TV. I signed up anyway.
For 4 months, my internet service sucked. Some days I'd get a whopping 12kb/s download speeds, other times I'd get my paid for 200MB/s speeds. It was very erratic. I had a technician out to my place 4 times, tried 2 new modems and the problem persisted. I FINALLY got the tech to check my physical lines and found where the problem was. Since, I have gotten consistent internet service. However, I was charged each and every month the full price for service not provided. Then, my year was up. I found I now had "basic cable" and lost channels I had been watching for a year. I called and was told that I should have never gotten those extra channels.
I went to their website to see what exactly I was supposed to have. No information whatsoever could I find about what my account was supposed to have. My bill went up $30 for even less service. Well, I promptly called them and cancelled my phone and cable, keeping my internet, since they have a monopoly here (12MB/s vs 200MB/s is NOT competition). Of course they charge me some more money to flip a switch. $30 worth. They have yet to pick up their TiVo box and I can just see my bill running up even more.
Mediacom talks about "customer service" yet every move they make screams "business first." You call for anything and get the business preferred auto-recordings (has any customer anywhere said, "I want to answer a bunch of asinine questions before ever talking to a live human being!?"). Then, when you hang up, get the business preferred "take a survey" callback. If you don't answer, or immediately hang up, you get another ring in 5 minutes. Mediacom assumes that everyone has unlimited on their phones, I guess. I don't. I pay for each and every minute on my phone. All in all, since Mediacom has no competition, they can do whatever they wish, and they do. Another company where customers come last. Less than 1 star for me. I am glad to see that others have had better service. Not me, though.

I was using Charter when I was in North Carolina and I was happy with them. When I moved up here, I chose Mediacom since they are with Charter. Their sales team was fine but the installer kept getting phone calls while he was here. Then somebody came in and said they had a meeting and he didn’t hook up the cable to the TV. He hooked up the three different color plug in things, so that was kind of weird.
I have cable service with Mediacom and their service has been really great. I got the box and HDTV. My mom's 81 years old and I've done the Favorites because she has favorite shows that she likes to watch. Sometimes my phone doesn’t work, so I have to reset the cable and sometimes it won't reset until the next day. Also, there are times when I am watching a show and the picture freezes, but the people are still talking. Otherwise, I'm happy with the service.
On the 28th, I'm also going to go get the Wi-Fi. Their salesman, Terry, came to my door and that was when I decided to do it. He was very friendly and he explained things to me. I'd tell others that they need to do Mediacom because if they have a problem, Mediacom's reps would be there to fix it. It's better than having the satellite where you'd lose everything if there were storms or bad weather and you'd be paying for something you couldn't see.

We moved in last summer and we had CenturyLink but as soon as my contract was up, I left them. I called Mediacom because they were close to my house and if I have a problem, I can go over there. I also run over when my bill is due. I pay it every month and say hi to the girls. I'm on contract but I'm very satisfied with them. The internet service is good and I'm not changing. In fact, I've already suggested them to someone.
The tech had shown up on time for the installation and he knew what he was doing. He was very informative and quick. He was somebody who makes you feel comfortable. He was willing to answer any and all questions and if he thought you looked like you were not understanding something, he would say, "Well, why don't we go back on this a little bit and we'll go over this?" He was very good. Mediacom's customer service is good too. They're very knowledgeable and they're an asset to the company.

I needed internet and Mediacom happened to be one of two companies available where I live. They installed the cable which I could have done for myself as I'm a maintenance man, but they did it for me and it seems to work fine. My complaint is where I live, I'm the maintenance man for all the rentals. Every time somebody moves out and moves in where they get Mediacom, dish or whatever, the techs always run a new coax and don't take the old coax out. They take the old satellites in but don't take down the post. If anybody comes along with one satellite again, they leave the old one there and put a new one next to the old one.
My other trouble is with the router as the Wi-Fi tends to drop a lot. But overall, the service is all right. I have plenty of upload and download bandwidth to do things I do online and everything seems to go pretty well on par for what I can figure. The internet speed and the helpfulness of everybody I interact with on the phone and in person seem to go just fine. Everybody's professional and they worked out good. It's also economical for me just having internet as it's about the same price what I plan to have internet service on my cellphone but with Mediacom's internet I can do a lot more. The price could be a little bit lower but it's definitely not the most expensive service out there. It's still pretty reliable, so economically speaking, it's not a bad deal.

But through their explanation and being patient with me and walking me through, I found that it was real.
A young man came in to set up the cable. He answered any questions that I had, and he even showed me how to operate the remote control. He was a big help. I'm on a limited income so I'm not experiencing all the channels that they have to offer, but for the ones that I do have, I'm satisfied. I have experienced some blackouts, but when you call them, they get on it and they take care of the problem. I'm very satisfied with the quality of service that I received.

I was a Mediacom employee from June 2014-July 2015. I left on my own accord for a better career opportunity that is when the issues started. I grew tired of the constant phone calls I had to make where I could only ever deal with an automated computer. So finally on August 21, 2017, I contacted a competitor and had their services installed. My account with Mediacom was past-due because I did not pay the bill. So on August 22, 2017, Mediacom "soft" disconnected my services by disabling my equipment, but, it didn't matter because the services were disconnected from my house when the new company came in. I never thought much about it. Recently my husband and I began the process of purchasing a house and when I pulled my credit there is Mediacom reporting to all three bureaus so I'm like okay... let me pay them. So I call with every intention of paying the full balance of my account to settle it out.
They read out my balance of $495, I ask them to explain the bill to me. I do not argue ANY charges prior to August 22, 2017, WHEN THEY DISCONNECTED MY EQUIPMENT - This has been admitted to me on numerous occasions on various forms of communication with the company. The company continues to charge me up until September 22, 2017 for services I DID NOT RECEIVE. They do not care, they claim services were still running on the line that did not work outside of my house. When my current company installed services they disconnected Mediacom's line and put their own. While I worked there I learned that two cable companies cannot provide service to one house. Mediacom wanted NO part of that and ignored my statement.
So in short, Mediacom billed me despite the fact they admitted (via Facebook Messenger and various recorded phone calls) that my services were disconnected and interrupted due to non-payment. Last time I checked the Water and Power company do not charge you for services after your services are interrupted for non-pay, Mediacom believes their powers allow them to do that. So believe me when I say this company is unethical, They do not care about their employees, and they do not care about their customers. They care about the money. So good job Mediacom! I hope however much I was robbed of was completely worth it to you. I will tell everybody I know about your unethical and probably illegal billing practices!

When I went to Mediacom with concerns about my billing and the prices, the rep helped me as to how I can get a cheaper package. The installation was really good and the team's very helpful. Every time I call and they set up an appointment, they wind up getting here before the time that they said they were working which is about two days early. They're on point.
However, we thought we started out with a package that was around $80, but then it has risen up to a $169 and I had to get rid of some channels. And the thing about that is I live on a budget and I really have a problem with the price. They hiked the price. I could deal with over the years it might go up $5 to $10, but not from $80 up to almost $200 when the reason we signed on was because of the price. And then it just changes like that when we had already got accustomed to channels and everything. I have downsized my package.
Additionally, my husband loves sports but we had to cut those out in order to keep some cable so that he can have the Wi-Fi that will be sent. I wish that there was a way that they could help at least being able to get our couple of channels back and also keep me aware of the price change and not just throw it on me and then expect us to just go with that.

Also, the Mediacom internet that I have is the slowest thing I’ve ever seen in my life and I don’t wanna pay for it anymore because I only use it on the weekends when the girls are here. They would bring it out and show us whatever in the living room but they can get it up on their phones ten times faster than I can on my computer. I know Mediacom has a higher speed but what I have should have been good and I am unhappy about that. But when we dealt with Mediacom, they were great and took care of what I needed.

Mediacom is the only company I've had and I've had really good experience with them. Their team has always been here when we need help and they're here right away if something goes wrong. They are really nice and quiet. We've had the cable service for 15 years now and the service has been excellent. You can't beat the service. I couldn't get a discount but I figured as long as we don't have internet, I would like to make payments with 79, which would be very nice.

We live in an apartment and we can only have Mediacom here. The sales reps of Mediacom were really good and I liked them. They were on time and they talked with me decently so I could understand what they were talking about. They also had good knowledge of their product. I got Mediacom's basic cable service. The installer that came out had to go out to another room where the box was to put the chip that they use in it. Then he came right back and he was really good in programming the TV. He knew what he was doing and it didn't take him long to do the installation. So far, the quality of service that we've received from Mediacom has been wonderful. We've been having good channels and there are some that we like. Mediacom does a good job and we like their service.

I'm not that satisfied with Mediacom. The service is okay, but when I get ready to change the station, I get the menu and all of that and I can't get back where it was. By the time I get back, the program is over. I called the younger person and they'd figure it out. Also, they need to improve what's on their information in listing. I've had CenturyLink before and it's better.

The apartment where I live in is in a package deal with Mediacom. I got basic cable with Mediacom then I got the internet. The guy who put it in was really nice. He had a little trouble getting it to start working and then it didn’t work at all the next day so he came back out and fixed that. And since then, it’s been fine. However, I just got the bill a couple of days ago and it is supposed to be $14.99 a month and $14.99 for installation. But they charged me $29 for installation and then they charged me $14.99 for the internet, $10 for a high-speed modem and another $15 for the equipment rental. It’s very deceiving and a little high. Also, I will have the wifi put in and they charged me about $9.

I've been with Mediacom for about 30 years. Back then, they were the only game in town and they have since changed their name two or three times. The contact with their sales and customer service people is average. It usually takes a little while to get a hold of somebody but their cable service is good.

I got the phone, TV and internet from Mediacom and I don't like their service. The TV goes off every now and then, and then it stays off for a while then it comes back on. And it takes out the internet and the phone goes off, too. I also don’t like the weather channel, which tells me what’s going on in Los Angeles half the time and the local 8s don’t come on half the time. I watch a lot of the weather channel and I watch a lot of local 108 but I don’t even get a local 8 half the time. It’s getting a little too expensive, too. I have to think about going somewhere else.

We had Mediacom, we switched to Windstream because they had a good deal. But then, when we were Windstream, we were having a terrible time since they didn't have good service. So, we decided go with Mediacom again. Thus far, we have no complaints with them.
Loretta,
We are glad to have you as a valued Mediacom customer and hope we can keep providing you good quality services!

Mediacom was a nightmare when we first got it installed. We waited and waited and they ended up sending a tech over to the place we moved from to install our cable instead of the place that we moved to. But when they finally got here, they got it hooked up and everything was okay. We are also having a lot of problems with some channels that we don't get. Sometimes in the middle of a show, it will freeze up. But talking to someone from Mediacom usually goes pretty good.

Mediacom was recommended to me when I was down there in Rock Shadows, so I got their service. The sales reps that helped me were great. They were courteous, fast, and efficient. Mediacom hooked me up with the cable and the installer that came out was good. I already have the box there. But I'm up in Alberta right now and I cancelled my Mediacom service when I was down south, but I plan on connecting it again when I come back in October. I would recommend Mediacom. The quality of service that I had from them was good and I was well-satisfied with anything that they did for me.

I’ve been with Mediacom for a long time and they have the variety of channels that I want. They are very responsive and nice when I call them. But the service technicians that come to my house are not very knowledgeable at all, and usually it takes three or four times for someone to come out before our problem’s fixed. They came out for our internet months ago and we had to have four technicians come out. But the overall quality of service is very good and I would recommend them.

I’m thinking about taking out the television part of our Mediacom subscription and keeping the phone because I only watch one channel and it’s silly spending that kind of money. But as far as the service goes, nothing’s wrong with it. I’ve got the phone company with it and I’m happy with it. I live in an apartment complex and there’s a few dishes. I have a dish and I had DirecTV. And I was unhappy with Mediacom when I switched and they wouldn’t let me take my phone number. I had to get another one.
I should have pursued that. It’s been in the phonebook. This is the first year the old number and my number aren't in there. It's confusing to people that wanna call me. That’s the only problem I’ve had with Mediacom. And other than that, their service is good. Sometimes it goes out for a few days but then, everything has got bad points in it anyhow. The guys that come here have been very good. I have no complaints on that at all. I’ve got friends that have Mediacom and they’ve been out for a month at a time and that’s never been straightened out. But I haven’t had any of that. Mine has been good.
I would recommend Mediacom to somebody. There’d be no need for me not to. I got a system with them, but I’m gonna call them today and see if there’s a better one again. I get so many minutes a month for $29. While over there, they get unlimited minutes. I use the phone a lot just to call in. But other than that, I don’t use the phone very much.

Placed order for service change in March 2018. No one called back to schedule service call to home. Called again in April. Set up again. Customer service rep said I will be billed new billing amount starting with the date of call and scheduled service call for Saturday 8-12am. Tech calls after 5 PM and apologizes and says someone will call to reschedule. No one calls. I call again and have to go through negotiations and the csr tells me my bill will be around $20. I have to call to reschedule appt for a Saturday as they won't accommodate with minors. I get my bill and it is the same $243 and have not had premium HBO, Starz, Encore or Oxygen channels since March 2018. The supervisor tells me they will give me partial credit. For one month, but not 3 months I have been without the channels

I'm in an apartment and my Mediacom cable came with the rent. I have HBO and Starz, as well as their normal service. I've been with them since May of 2017 and my experience has been good 98% of the time. But I had a 2% issue that kinda caught me off guard a little bit. When I'd be watching various channels from 10 o'clock in the evening onwards, the picture would do what I referred to as a little bleeding. It didn't freeze out but would do an almost Venetian blind-type-thing. I wasn't too freaked out but it went on for a couple of weeks. So, one late night, I decided to touch base with them about that. I very nicely called and they made an appointment. Then a very nice guy came out and checked all the outside things. He said that everything was fine and decided that possibly it was my box.
So, he took out my box and put this one that has the size of a sandwich. You could put it in a Barbie dollhouse. It was the new and improved model but I wasn't thrilled with it. I'm really not good in the area of technology at all so I asked him if everything was gonna be exactly how it was before. He said that the new thing would be great but after he set it up, it was gonna be a couple of hours before all the information went into it, so I might not have my whole menu. I told him that was fine with me.
But two hours later, when I came back and turned on my TV, I couldn't understand what was happening to it. Before, the whole picture would be there all the way across. But now, it has margins around it. When I was in Florida, I had a normal high-def TV which my family was embarrassed about. So, when I moved here, my welcome home gift was a 60-inch High-def TV. And surprisingly enough, the picture that was in the middle of it after the change was about the size of the one I had in Florida, which was hilarious. Some channels would do it while some channels wouldn't, and my guide became a lot smaller and didn't go as far across to show me until noon like it did before. In fact, it was half of what it used to show. I was totally confused by it all, so, I immediately called Mediacom that same day.
I told them that their guy did a good job but with whatever was going on now, I had no concept of what it all entailed. They said it was not a problem, that they'd contact him, give him my phone number, and have him call me right back, though it might be a little bit before he could come. But I never got a phone call back. So the communication was poor and somewhere along the way, the bomb might have gotten dropped. I knew they were busy so after two days, I called them again and very nicely explained the issue. They gave me a day and time when they would come out, and I told them that I was not a tech savvy at all, so the person coming might need to do A to B for me.
So once again, a guy came out at the correct time and he was polite and friendly. He played with the TV and told me that with the new box, some channels are high-def while others aren't and those are the ones that don't have a big picture. I told him that I didn't wanna go back to the smaller thing and that if the TV was gonna be like that, I would rather have my old box back again. But he said that I couldn't. So, I asked him how to get the full picture on my screen and he showed me how to put it on wide screen on the menu.
But when I did that while watching a movie, half of any wording or the logo for the channel was missing from the screen because the picture was spread out to make it wide screen. And the interesting part was, there was a weather thing and I wasn't getting to see all the weather things on the TV. In the end, I couldn't do anything about it and it is what it is. But I wish I never called and just let the late night thing do it for the old thing.
Then, when I got my bill, it was way more than it normally was. So once again, I called and talked to a girl in their accounting department. She told me that they charged me when they had to send out a guy for the second time and I didn't feel like I should be charged for a second visit for something that was not correct or explained to me on the first visit. In my opinion, it wasn't a second visit but an extension of what had taken place originally. She told me that it said on their thing that I was not tech savvy. But I told her that had nothing to with charging me an extra fee.
She then told me that she could go ahead and take off the extra charge. It wasn't said sarcastically but it was said like she was putting up with me. I don't know if she was having a bad day but I know that she was annoyed with me. I would've given her a 100% credit for that if I had aggressively went for her, or if I've done a lot of things that people do when they call about things. But hand on the bible, I didn't do any of that. So, my experience with her left a little bit of taste in my mouth and I hope she'd talk nicely to somebody calling them.
She told me that the tech had the right to write up his report that way but I told her that I'd be glad to discuss with the tech that my first tech never came back. I also told her that I didn't even complain that I didn't get a phone call back at first. I stayed polite and friendly the whole time, and I didn't appreciate being charged for the second time. It was not fair. So she took the charge off but told me that going forward, if they come back the second time, they're gonna charge me for it. Then, when my next bill came in, it showed the correct amount. Everything has been copacetic since then.

We have been a Mediacom customer for about 20 years. Every year service has gotten worse! You call for service and they say they will call back within 48 hours and of course you never hear from them so after 3 days you call again and get someone in eastern country who has no idea what to do and they promise someone will call you back in 24-48 hours and 3 days later you call again and this time ask for a manager. What a joke! Never ever have I had a call back from a supervisor/manager after asking several times for just that! The last issue was finally fixed but we just happened to check the channel after it not working (sound) for two weeks to find the sound had come back but never a call back from Mediacom. I can see switching soon as this is unacceptable!

I've had Mediacom for more than 40 years ever since they came to Vinton. Almost everybody we know has Mediacom, too. We have Mediacom's television and internet services. And so far, it's really good. When we call, they come. It might not be that day, but they usually come promptly. The only thing is I wish the prices wasn’t so expensive compared to some of the other cables. Also, we don't understand why on some of the channels, we have two and three of the same thing. QVC is on three channels and some of the news is on more than one channel. They should take some of those off and put something worthwhile on those channels instead of having so many duplicates. But other than that, I haven't had really too much trouble with Mediacom.
