What is Metronet?

Metronet is an internet service provider (ISP) offering fiber-optic internet, TV and phone services within the Midwest and South. The company is based in Indiana, where most of its subscribers reside, and is one of the largest fiber-optic networks in the country. All services provided by Metronet are delivered over its fiber-optic network.

Metronet internet packages range in speed from 100 megabits per second to 1 gigabit per second, while TV subscriptions typically include up to 250 channels. Fiber phone services are also available, providing a reliable connection and an improved quality of sound. Metronet also makes it simple to optimize your streaming experience by showing you free and paid services in one location.

How does Metronet work?

Metronet uses a fiber-optic network to provide fast, reliable service. Fiber-optic cables are woven with fine, hair-thin glass that transmit data over long distances. ISPs that use this technology install a panel that houses these connections and links your home to the network.

To sign up for Metronet’s internet, TV or phone services, you can go online call the company's customer service. Services are typically installed within 10 days of an order. A pre-installation appointment may be required ahead of the full installation. During this appointment, the technician will bring a fiber drop and a small box that will be fully connected at installation.

Metronet pricing

Pricing for Metronet services depends on your location, the package you choose and whether or not you're a student. Internet pricing ranges from $49.95 to $89.95 per month at the time of publishing.

    Their service was stellar until they were acquired. The service is ABYSMAL. There is zero technical support and customer service reps can barely fog a mirror.

    I am a current customer of Metronet. I do not recommend the services to no one. And when I can find a better service in my area I will be changing. There's no reason why you can't have a courtesy call from customer service when your technician's enroute. When you work 12-hour shift. And your services is disconnected not because of your own fault which is an inconvenience for me and my family while we do home schooling online.

      Metronet’s system wiped out our Holiday schedule resulting in missed service calls from our customers. I called for their support at 904 AM. They didn’t bother to call me back until after 1 PM to offer their support. Fortunately I found a way to solve the problem before that. However most of the times I have had to call for phone support their technicians mess schedules up versus fixing and don’t follow through on what they are asked to do.

      What a bunch of crooks. I "cancelled" service 3/19/26, but you have to "mail back" their router, which takes a long time, before they cancel service. I paid my "FINAL BILL" after much trouble because they cancelled my autopay for some unknown reason and then had to pay manually online, which didn't work. After I paid the "FINAL BILL" they keep sending me more bills, I don't know what for and they don't answer my complaints. They need to stop sending these bogus bills. Do not do business with these crooks.

      Very disappointed with how Metronet handled the cable installation. The internet service itself is actually very good and we’ve been happy with the quality and speed. However, the way they buried the cable was terrible. They left a long open trench across our yard, and in several places the cable is still sticking out above the ground. The grass around the trench is damaged and already turning yellow. The work looks careless and unfinished, and now we’ll have to repair the lawn ourselves. Great internet service, but the cable burial work was absolutely awful.

      Metronet has a reasonably good platform, I was a happy customer until I had a service disruption. Metronet has the worst customer service I've ever experienced. No explanation of the issue and no estimated time for when it would fixed. The customer support system is a joke, agents have no information and can't properly follow up on any issue. If reliability and customer service are important, I'd stay far away. Even Comcast can outperform this, and that's about as low of a bar as I could ever set.

      If I could give them a 0 out of 1, I would. Two weeks ago, a technician came to the house to install the internet at our new house. Technician said he couldn't do it, because they needed to go under the sidewalk or something like that. He said he "escalated" the issue, but we never heard anything back. We called a few days after that, and they got us in contact with construction who said it would be 10 days. It has now been more than 10 says since they said that and not only do we still not have internet, they haven't even contacted us once, nor provided a timeline nor a date when they're finally going to install the internet. Absolutely no communication whatsoever.

      Now, two weeks later since the first technician came out, still no internet, so tried calling customer service. Customer service says it's a construction issue and they can't help us and that someone from construction would call back in 24 to 48 hours. I said I wasn't trying to be difficult, but that was unacceptable because it's already been 2 weeks and we've already talked to construction who said it would be 10 days more than 10 days ago. Customer service then transferred me to construction who picked up the phone, didn't say anything, and then hung up on me.

      Tried calling customer service back, but the second person I tried talking to refused to provide a timeline, refused to get in contact with construction, and refused to let me talk to their supervisor, so I had to hang up after getting absolutely no answers. So after 2 weeks without internet and several phone calls over those two weeks, still ZERO communication and no installation date. The worst part, not only are we paying for internet that they're not providing, we're also paying for a hotspot because they refuse to install internet. TLDR: Save your money. Avoid this company at all costs. The lack of communication and utter incompetence is staggering. Will definitely be filing a complaint with the BBB and the FCC and the state.

      MetroNet is an unethical company. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. You will be quite sorry and deeply regret the decision. I am not even a customer because they do not service my part of the neighborhood. They dug up brand new sod in front of my house and left a hole. Sod is ruined. They drove away. I came home and saw a hole. For last five days they have not pursued any trouble tickets, fulfilled promises to have senior management call me and lied repeatedly about steps being taken to resolve. They misled on which departments to contact, etc. Is now going on five days with no resolution and countless phone calls. Fire them. Do not send them any dollars.

      I've had Metronet for over a year now had nothing but problems. They shut my service down every month when they shouldn't have. Then they shut my service down before the month is even up and kept trying to charge me to reconnect and disconnect. When it was their problem, metronet does not know what they are doing? Then when I ask them how to shut it down, they don't have any idea, they say they have a policy. But the policy makes no sense. There is no policy. I asked to talk to a management team and they wanna tell me 48 hours. Never even heard of such a thing. Whoever gets metronet is is wasting their time. You can get internet and phone for a lot cheaper. The service might be good, but the company is unprofessional And don't know their head from their tail. Poor communication and so much more. Every customer service person is damn near uneducated on their job. They tell you lies, so be careful.

      I have had service from MetroNet for 2 years, they are a predatory with a habitual lying problem, and little to no actual customer service. They conned my elderly parents into signing up via some marketing gimmick, within 3 months, the bill consistently began raising like clockwork. They have consistently promised every time we have called and complained about bad service, due to the fiber optic cable line being lazily strung across power lines instead of being properly buried, every time we get told "we'll send someone out soon to bury the line" and it never happens.

      Last month, they doubled-charged us for the bill, and after calling, they then made that same empty promise to do the job correctly, instead. In conclusion, if you enjoy paying 80$ a month to have 1 bar / no internet all throughout the day, and be consistently lied to. After reading some reviews, it seems obvious to me that Metronet has never NOT cut corners for a profit, it seems fairly obvious to say, no, you shouldn't consider Metronet as a provider.

      After a utility company cut our service, Metronet laid a new cable on top of the ground. The guy said someone would come out and bury it after construction was complete in our neighborhood. That was about 3 months ago. I have called them consistently since it became apparent that they weren’t coming back. To date I have not received a callback to schedule this work although each time I speak to someone, they say someone will get back to me within 48 hours. There are plenty of other providers now offering service in our area. Maybe some would do what they promise and return a phone call.

      I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the unacceptable conditions and lack of care demonstrated during recent work conducted at my home residence by Metronet trying to install their fiber in our neighborhood. First and foremost, there has been a consistent issue with cigarette smoking on-site, along with cigarette butts being left behind. This is not only disrespectful to my property, but it also presents a serious health concern. My family has a documented history of cancer related to smoking, and we have severe sensitivities to smoke exposure. This behavior shows a disregard for both our health and basic professional standards.

      More concerning, however, is a significant safety hazard that was left behind. A large, rusted metal fence post stake was abandoned on the property in an area accessible to my children. They discovered and handled this object, putting them at risk of serious injury and potential infection. We are extremely fortunate that their recent DTaP vaccinations mitigated what could have been a far more serious situation. This level of negligence is unacceptable and constitutes a clear case of child endangerment. When this issue was raised with your team, the response was equally troubling. The focus appeared to be on addressing cleanup only after the fact, rather than acknowledging the severity of the hazard or taking responsibility for the unsafe conditions created. There was little to no recognition of the risk posed to my children or the broader implications of such oversight.

      Given the seriousness of these concerns, I request immediate action. Work should not be permitted to continue until proper safety protocols are reviewed, implemented, and demonstrated. This includes strict adherence to no-smoking policies on private property, thorough site cleanup procedures, and ensuring that no hazardous materials or tools are left accessible, especially in environments where children are present. I expect a prompt response outlining the steps that will be taken to address these issues and prevent them from recurring.

      Updated on 05/14/2026: Had installed the neighbors MetroNet line through my backyard and tore up my lawn. They kept pushing it off and took weeks to try to fix it. They couldn't make it how it was before, parts of my lawn are still torn up. They then routed the neighbor's line through my front lawn and over my driveway, and put a speed bump in my driveway over the line. Meanwhile I'm not a MetroNet customer and they're just doing this to someone else's property. They said they'd remove the line and speed bump after a week, but it's been over a month and no one has done anything and they stopped returning my calls. They're extremely incompetent and shouldn't be trying to provide Internet service.

I've been in the new house for a month and a half and came home to no service yesterday.

      I switched to Metronet because Spectrum was getting too expensive. I thought metronet would have better wi-fi. The wi-fi was sketchy and dead spots through the house. I was also disgruntled because getting their service involved drilling a hole in my exterior wall and placing a rather large service box on the wall. Now, even though I no longer have metronet, I still have a hole in my exterior wall and a cable line 'buried' barely below the grass surface leading to my house. Making a phone call using wi-fi was very frustrating because of the dead spots throughout the house!

      Billing - even though I had the correct information entered for auto pay, metronet rejected the bank payments. I would have to go in every month and enter them manually. When I spoke to metro they said it was probably something in the wi-fi that rejected my bank. (huh?) So after, dealing with billing issues, and low quality wi-fi I switched back to Spectrum. Canceling was also an issue. I had different information about refund and service date closure. What an irritation metronet has been. I would not recommend them. Unfortunately where we live, we are limited on who can provide service. metronet is not an option.

      My experience with Metronet has been very disappointing. The service quality is poor, and customer support often seems confused and unable to answer basic questions. In the four months I’ve had the service, there has been an outage every single month. Most recently, the internet has been down on December 29th for over 7 hours, and there were outages on December 16th and again in November. This level of unreliability makes it extremely difficult to depend on their service for work, school, or anything important.

      On top of the constant outages, Metronet has also overcharged me multiple times. My bill has not been consistent since the first month, and I currently have over $90 in credits due to billing errors. That alone shows a lack of organization and accountability. Overall, between the unreliable internet, the monthly outages, the unhelpful customer service, and the billing issues, I cannot recommend Metronet based on my experience.

      I am extremely disappointed with Metronet’s cancellation process and customer service. I am moving in a few weeks and called ahead to request that my service be discontinued on a specific date. When I later called to confirm the cancellation, I was told that Metronet does not pre-arrange cancellations. Instead, service is only deactivated after equipment is returned. This policy creates an unnecessary gap where the new homeowners will have no internet or Wi-Fi until they can schedule installation—something that could easily be avoided with basic coordination.

      What made this experience worse was the consistently poor customer service. During my initial cancellation call, I was given incorrect information. The same happened during an online chat and again when I followed up by phone. One representative, April, was rude and unprofessional, using ALL CAPS to emphasize her point rather than explaining the policy clearly. The next representative provided more misinformation, and the final one was disinterested, showed no empathy, and simply repeated, “that’s our policy,” without any attempt to help. To be clear: the internet service itself is good. However, if you ever need customer support—especially for something as basic as a planned move—good luck. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Metronet due to their rigid policies and lack of professional customer service.

      We have had Metronet a little over a year. I provided the usage info when signing up and was told the 100 mbps would be sufficient. It worked great the first 9-10 months then the service started greatly decreasing to intermittent loss of connection, slow connection, freezing up etc. When I called CS they immediately wanted to upgrade to the next tier of 500 Mbps but suggested 1Gbps would probably be best. When I refused they offered a new router free of charge. I took the new router and if anything it is worse. After doing some research on the company, I find they sold to a different company 3-4 months ago which is when the problems started getting noticeably worse. We live in a plat of around 200 houses and speaking with a few neighbors either they or someone they know are having the same issues. I will call again, if the issue is not resolved we will switch providers the first of the year.

      Copperas Cove Tx, Metronet improperly laid fiber across the concrete, leaving it exposed and creating a safety hazard for anyone who might trip over it. This reflects poor workmanship and fundamentally improper fiber placement. When Metronet was contacted, they sent a technician the next day who merely confirmed the issue we had already identified. We were then informed that another team would need to resolve the problem, yet no ETA was provided.

      I also contacted customer service, and instead of offering a timeframe or meaningful assistance for my business, they simply apologized and appeared uninformed. This level of service is unacceptable, and based on my experience, I would caution others against using Metronet. Their customer service and technical support are seriously lacking. Brightspeed might be a better option.

      I've been a customer with Metronet from multiple years now in Tallahassee Florida when they first showed up. I just got off the phone with them because I'm having problems with one of my cables in my house and they were quite inept. They're asking me if I was going to be home, they refused to give me a time or date. They said I had to answer their question first. How do I know if I'm going to be home if you don't tell me when.

      Our own installation went fairly smoothly. Polite young fellows who did that work. Our problem originated from installation issues our neighbors had (we're in a 4 townhome unit), which affected us, which led to absolutely horrible customer service for our neighbor and us. It took, I believe, 7 attempts at connecting and burying lines to get all 4 of us installed and working correctly (ours was a once and done, though a long wait to have the line buried). On the 6th round, the installer came through our back yard to get to our neighbor's home with a ditch witch type piece of equipment. He tore up our yard, gouging in places at least 8 inches deep. The scar was about 20-25 feet long. It has been over a month of my calling and requesting the damage be repaired.

      I've called at least 4 times. A supervisor who dealt with my neighbor also took pictures of and acknowledged the damage. The 3rd time I called, Rebecca was very short with me when I asked to have a supervisor call me. She kept saying they did not give out supervisor's phone number - not what I asked for. Really poor service that time, though the other folks I spoke with were helpful to the extent they could be.

      After the 4th call, my husband got an email asking us to provide pictures and an estimate of how much it would be to repair the damage, from Jacob Schmidt in Field Operations. Metronet has a CTR number, has the photos, and has not done a bit to get the damage repaired. My husband replied to him reminding him that they have the pics, and it's their responsibility to repair the damage - and not a peep since!! I made a point of letting them know we wanted this repaired before the ground froze....and we now have several inches of snow on the ground.

      There has been absolutely no movement towards repair work. There has been no compensation for the weeks we went without lawn service because of the number of times their cables were left above ground. There's been no compensation for this huge inconvenience. And we still have a massive scar and rut in our yard!! The customer service folks, mostly, who took my calls were polite and tried to be helpful. But those responsible for repairing the damage get a big fat ZERO in my book. If I could rate them no stars I would.

      Trash. When it works its great but I'm 3 months deep and I lose internet at LEAST once a week. Holidays it's down, thursday is down. Not worth the headache. Work a 8 hour shift, sit down on the couch and start a movie then bam you're on hotspot for the rest of the night... Best part is I don't always lose internet but it goes down to 2-3mbps and it won't load a webpage let alone stream. Not the 2g I'm paying for...

      Past 2 weeks around 730pm CST my 1 GB service slows down to typically 1,5 MB. Every morning after I get speeds around 500 MB. In the evening I have been calling in, I get the bot that goes through all the various checks, and after 5 to 10 minutes the bot says "there is a service disruption in your area and we are working to resolve it". Then the text follows and the bot says, "You can hang up now." Every morning I need to turn off then back on several devices like the printer, fire stick, cameras, etc. Checking with several neighbors finding the same experience. I have had my paid speed connection on Friday and Saturday until around 7:30 pm Sunday when I go through speed reduction again. Twice was I able to get a live support person, was told "everything seems to be working" and "I will make out a repair ticket" that didn't have any follow through.

      I’ve been a customer for one month and it has been nothing but a nightmare. Terrible customer service, terrible technicians and they just simply don’t care. I strongly encourage anyone looking for new fiber service to look elsewhere.

      Metronet damaged my front sprinkler line which I repaired due to lack of response from Metronet, their contractor also damaged my back fence breaking my gate and post, Metronet made a low ball offer of 300 dollars which was just the labor cost of the gate and did not include materials or the labor to remove and reinstall the 8 ft sections attached to either gate post…. So at this point Metronet rep Tim Page has told me to take it or leave it, says he needs more photos! He has the photos of the damage that also shows sections attached to the fence but he doesn’t care. Mind you I contacted Metronet 3 weeks before I replaced the back fence asking them to come out but never saw anyone. I will tell anyone that is considering Metronet to think again because customer service isn’t high priority for them

      Had Metronet installed at my place and the Internet runs pretty good but we have had other issues. Contacted support to find that my router was never registered and they could not find it in the system. Two weeks after install and my drop is still laying on the ground in my back yard. I had to contact them to find out that somehow my burry had been canceled with no explanation as to why or how so it looks like my internet line will sit laying across my backyard for another whole week. I thought two weeks was kind of pushing it and then I get told it would be closer to three week's. They have no system of accountability and is why things are not being taken care of properly and as a paying customer I have not been happy with any of this so far.

      Worst company I’ve ever dealt with. I suffered through them for three years and still have to suffer more because they own a monopoly and yeah, Mediacom is even worse. They’re about the same level of both their garbage companies run by the devil himself. I gave Metronet -5 stars out of five.
