Buyer Beware!. I would give them a zero if I could! They lied! On November 11, 2025, I called to inquire about adding cable to our already existing phone and internet plan. They quoted me for $215.86 to include the "tv select" plan, internet, and a 2 mobile phone service with taxes included. I confirmed the quote twice!!! When we received our first month bill... We got a bill for $215.86 AND a separate large bill for our phones! That is definitely NOT what I was quoted!!. I called today, and they refused to honor the quoted amount and now I am stuck with a much higher bill. Do not let them do this to you too!

I am not as tech-savvy person so I was worried before calling in, but the agents were patient, very Friendly and guided me through every step. The agents answered all my questions, did not get impatient. It was a very good experience.

The transfer process was easy and quick and reduced my internet and phone service bill by more than 50%. So far very satisfied. My representative went out of his way a couple of times to make sure my experience was positive.

I am not sure where to begin, and honestly, I did not want to relive this experience at all. However, due to how severe and prolonged it became, it needs to be documented accurately. Attempting to set up mobile service took three days and an unreasonable number of phone calls with multiple representatives. Throughout the process, I received conflicting information, incomplete instructions, and was repeatedly transferred between departments that either did not understand the process or contradicted one another.
The first representative, a sales agent, told me I only needed my Breezeline account number and transfer PIN to move my number and service. Based on that guidance, I called the next day to begin the transfer. The second representative told me that information was incorrect and that I had to wait until I received an activation email before anything could be done. Later that same day, I received an email but was unsure whether it was the correct one. I called again and spoke with a third representative. That call lasted approximately an hour and a half. While he was polite, he appeared unfamiliar with the process. I had my transfer PIN, account number, and IMEI readily available, yet he insisted he only needed the account number. I explicitly asked if the additional information was required and was told no. I was assured I would receive an email shortly with instructions. That email never arrived.
The following day, I called again and was informed that my account was not active and therefore could not add mobile service. I was told I needed to submit a photo for verification, which had never been mentioned by any prior representative. After submitting the photo, I was told I needed to wait for approval. At that point, I explained that my transfer PIN was expiring that same day. I was essentially told that this was my problem and that I would need to obtain a new one. I contacted Breezeline and received a new transfer PIN in under five minutes.
I then called back again and was told I still had to wait. At that point, I requested to cancel the process because I was completely exhausted by the repeated issues. I was transferred to the Customer Experience team. I spent nearly two hours on the phone with that representative while she contacted multiple departments to determine what had gone wrong. I was told the account needed to go through fraud verification and that all new mobile accounts are required to do this. If this is standard procedure, it is extremely concerning that no prior representative mentioned it or appeared to be aware of it.
I was then told the original mobile setup had been done incorrectly and needed to be canceled entirely so the process could start over. After restarting, the account was flagged for fraud again. I was instructed to speak with the fraud department and then return to the retention department to finalize activation. When I was transferred to the fraud department, the representative immediately spoke to me in a dismissive and confrontational manner, as though I was an inconvenience rather than a customer trying to resolve an ongoing issue. I completed all verification steps required to prove that I was not a fraudulent customer.
After verification, I asked to be transferred back to the retention department, as I had been explicitly instructed to do by the previous representative. She refused and stated that such a department did not exist. I explained that I had just been speaking with that department moments earlier. She dismissed this and stated that I was incorrect and that she would not transfer me there. I then asked who I would speak with if I wanted to cancel services. She responded by calling it a “stupid question” and said she would only transfer me if I intended to cancel. When I stated that I did not want to cancel and only wanted to return to the department that had been assisting me, she again refused.
At that point, in order to be transferred at all, I stated that I wanted to cancel internet service. She responded by saying that if I canceled internet service, mobile service would not be activated, and then stated she would proceed with deactivating it anyway. When I questioned why she would do that, she stated that because she worked in the fraud department, she could do whatever she wanted. I then decided to ask to be transferred to the mobile department instead so the activation issue could be resolved. She refused and stated she was canceling my account. She claimed the cancellation had already been processed, said she was marking the account as fraud, and told me I would not be able to open an account again in the future. She then placed me on hold.
After hanging up and calling back, I eventually reached the mobile department again. I explained everything that had happened and was transferred once more to Customer Experience, who still could not resolve the issue. Finally, I was transferred to another mobile representative who resolved the entire activation in less than five minutes. If I had been connected with a knowledgeable representative from the beginning, this entire situation would have been avoided. Instead, this process took three days, with the final day involving nearly four hours on the phone. This was the worst customer service experience I have ever had. While I ultimately received a ten dollar monthly discount on internet service, it does not come close to compensating for the time, stress, frustration, and unnecessary escalation I endured.

From the first person I spoke with to the chat to the installer- I’m impressed with everyone’s professionalism and attention to detail.

Switching over to Spectrum Mobile from US Mobile was easy, fast and because I already pay for Spectrum internet, Spectrum Mobile unlimited 30GB data plan is free for 1 year. You can beat a lot of things, but you can't beat FREE!! The process was easy and straightforward. The instructions written so a child can understand them. It didn't take me 2 minutes from start to finish to do the actual provider switch once I had the number transfer information and the SIM card. I mean we're not exactly talking rocket science here, at least for the literate.

I called and ended service on the 5th of the month and that was the last day I was able to connect or use the service, yet they billed for the whole month. Even though they did not provide the service for that month, their policy is to charge for the whole month, so they want to charge for a service they did not provide. Crooks that's what they are. This is coming from a customer they had for 16 years. Reason I stop using them was regular increases in pricing.

Great customer experience. I originally called to lower my home internet to save money. Spectrum was able to bundle my Internet and Mobile service for less than what I was paying for just my Mobile service with AT&T. I was able to keep the 1gig internet speed at a lower rate, plus activate 4 of my own mobile devices to Spectrum network. Cut my bill in half. WOW!!!!

I have been a customer for 11 years. I have had my lines replaced, techs out here and called customer service to try and get my dodgy internet. I also asked for a deal like they offer new customers to switch. They said they were giving me all the discounts they could. I had a new provider stop by and said they provided fiber optic internet with a price lock. Of course I took it along with the $300 in gift cards. Had it switched, so much faster and my phone actually works.
I went to cancel and the women, Lindsey, from Orlando, noticed my tenure. Mentioned it and asked if I had had people out and all that. "Well you can see that on your end and IDK why you're even asking. I'm not staying." She got an attitude with me when I said I dont have time to keep having techs out to my house for the dodgy internet and it never gets better. She then puts me on hold for 9 minutes and hangs up. Geez.. I wonder why I am leaving? Oh yeah, the service and the customer service. 🙄 I was there for 11 years and was rewarded nothing but a hang up. Just get the cheapest bill with the fastest company and save yourself some money and stress. They are all vultures.

Terrible service. I battled with them for months and had many service requests to fix the wifi issue, which was never fixed. I spent hours of my time dealing with them without a resolution. I finally cancelled and am so much happier. Go with a different provider. My service was meant to be turned off at the end of the day, but was turned off in the morning. When I called to have it turned back on, I was told the only way to do that was to open a new account. Even though I told them not to, she did it anyway, and I was charged an additional $30 that was never refunded. Three months later, endless harassing calls to pay them, even though I was told I wouldn’t owe anymore money. I finally paid to get them to stop and filed a dispute with the Better Business Bureau. Do not waste your time or money with them.

Just filed a FCC. Reason: I am filing a formal complaint regarding Spectrum’s billing practices after I canceled my internet service. I was billed $50 instead of the $30 promotional rate I had been paying. Spectrum claims my promotion ended on November 24, however I was enrolled in automatic payments to ensure timely payment and was never clearly notified that my promotional rate was ending or that my bill would increase. I had been a loyal Spectrum customer for many years. When I called on December 4 to cancel my service, the representative aggressively attempted to retain me and stated that I still had a $30 promotion available. He even offered a better discount than the $30 rate to get me to stay. I declined only because the place I was moving to already had internet service in someone else’s name.
After canceling, I later discovered my next bill had increased to $50. I was not provided a prorated credit, even though I was not going to use the remaining portion of the billing cycle. Had I stayed with Spectrum, I would have paid less and received prorated billing, which feels punitive for canceling service. I contacted Spectrum multiple times to resolve this issue and request a refund of the $20 overcharge, but all agents refused to assist. I ultimately spoke with a billing manager named Randall, who stated the bill was “final,” that there was “nothing worth looking into,” and dismissed my concerns as “hypothetical.” This interaction was unprofessional and dismissive. Spectrum’s actions feel deceptive and retaliatory toward a departing customer. I believe I was unfairly charged, inadequately notified of a rate increase, denied prorated billing, and misled by retention representatives.
I am requesting:• A refund or credit of the $20 overcharge.
• A review of Spectrum’s billing and cancellation practices.
• Accountability for misleading retention statements and refusal to provide prorated billing.
Thank you for your assistance in reviewing this matter.

Just dropped off all of my equipment at a local Spectrum store and canceled my account after being a long time decade plus, probably multiple decade plus customer secondary to being fed up paying elevated prices and fees for subpar quality service. Was only getting 400 MB of Internet for $100 a charge of $100. To top everything off, I’m in the middle of a billing cycle. Only have used 13 days of my billing cycle have 18 more to go and they refuse to prorate my bill and expect me to pay the additional 18 days, the full bill.
After decades and decades of paying them in large fees, they’re unwilling to work with the customer. This was explained rather rudely by the store staff that they “do not prorate“ as well as when I called the customer service number shortly after leaving the store and got the exact same explanation, Spectrum does not prorate. Do yourself a big favor and stay away from this company at all cost. You can get much better faster, higher quality service at a cheaper price almost anywhere. If I could give them zero stars or minus stars in terms of rating I absolutely would.

Where to start. Worst customer no-service I’ve experienced (Lana in FL). Continual outages and/or buffering with no credit or consideration. Higher prices than competitors with substandard service. Long wait times for assistance (if you can get past the automated crap). Good luck if you want to disconnect and move to a different company. The long list of questions they ask when you tell them you want to terminate your service is intrusive, irrelevant, and solely meant to intimidate a customer into maintaining some sort of relationship to benefit Spectrum. If I could rate this company any lower, I would - they’ve lost this customer permanently.

I’ve had Spectrum for 5 years for internet (500mb), the price was great for the first 2 as we didn’t need any high speeds for what we did at the house. Year 3 the price over doubled for the same speed, we had fiber optic come to the neighborhood and switched over. I called in to cancel Spectrum (can’t do it online), spent 20 minutes of them trying to get me to stay and finally got it canceled.
When I went in to turn in the modem and router they tell me my account is still active and they can’t take the devices. I spent another 20 minutes of them trying to get me to stay, sell me extra services and pretty much saying my new services are going to charge me more with hidden fees and not be as good. They finally closed the account, should have been a 5 minute call, if they would have offered me free internet I still wouldn’t have stayed. So tired of companies trying to monopolize certain markets, if you have options of other services use them. I’d even choose dialup over spectrum.

Spectrum can burn in hell. I hate this company. If you can find an internet provider that has actual customer service, please do so. Their policies are designed to punish customers. If you are not paying attention, this company will take every dime from you and your internet is still bad. When their products fail, they don't pro-rate your services.

Went to Best Buy. Bought an unlocked phone that they said works for Spectrum. Went to Spectrum and opened my phone in the parking lot. Went inside and was told that Verizon red flagged the phone even though I know 2 people who use the phone through Verizon. They told me I had to buy one of their crappy no memory (128gb) phones. So I did. Now I have to restart that same phone 20 to 30 times a day just so it will work for approximately 15 minutes at a time. Everyone says that they have the same great service as Verizon which is a lie. Now after leaving AT&T for crappy service I am really disappointed and should have NEVER left AT&T. I would rather pay more and actually have a phone then to be wanting to just throw my phone in the trash every day. Think I am going to go back to AT&T as soon as possible. Worst service in history for me. Nothing like Verizon or at&t. You pay for what you get I guess.

I employed Spectrum around April of 2012. Phone, internet and cable cost me around $117.00 per month. Over the years my bill was raised (no surprise) but after a few years, I had to reduce my cable services because it was getting too expensive. I would call periodically, after another raise, and inquire as to how I could reduce my bill. The associate, more times than not, would offer additional services at a "special" price. More than once I had to remind them that I needed to reduce my bill and not add to it. But they just didn't get it.
I have never made a late payment and stuck with Spectrum until I received three (3) raises in my bill this year alone (2025). I finally dropped Spectrum this past Summer. I talked to an associate on the phone and an associate in person and was told both times that I had a zero balance due. Fast forward to today (December 1st, 2025) and I received a message that I had a final monthly balance due of $317.81. I lost it. The service was ok all these years, but I had regular screen freezes, hesitations, and glitches over the years, not to mention the many, many times that my phone service was unavailable.

I have been a Spectrum customer for 3 years. I am 70, and have health issues. My experience with customer service has shown me they have NO consideration for the elderly. My TV has been having "channel unavailable" 4-5 times a day. 15-30 minutes each time, for 14 days. My cable HBO still works. I was on the chat for almost an hour trying to fix problem. He was not able to do so and an appointment was scheduled. That was fine. From then it was downhill. First, he knew that I was elderly and that the TV and the computer I was working at were not in same room. I had to get up over a dozen times to go check on something for him. I guess I wasn't fast enough because I kept getting messages that the chat was going to be disconnected. Then when we set the appointment, he left the service worse than I started. He told me he didn't do anything and that I was basically lying or senile.
I asked for a number to leave a complaint and he gave me an incorrect number for that. When I finally got customer service the man from Texas I got was worse. He basically said that Spectrum would never work to help the elderly, steps are the same for everyone (in my wheeling back and forth to two different rooms) and that because I am elderly I MUST wait for a technician to come. Yet continue to pay for a service I'm not getting. He said it's not Spectrum's fault that I am elderly and cannot follow their instructions fast enough. If the chat person that comes on is ALAN and you are 70 or older you are not welcome as a Spectrum customer.

I am writing about Spectrum mobile department. I will advise anyone who thinking about getting with this company's mobile service to think twice about doing so. I signed up for their mobile service, thinking I will get coverage in rural areas and such, but couldn't get any at all, which is why I returned the phone back before the 10 days they give you if you are not satisfied with the service. Keep in mind you will have to pay a restock fee if you still return the phone back opened even with no damage.
Spectrum refunded me back the down payment for opening up the service once they received the phone and emailed that they have received the phone, they was gonna charge me the restock fee. A month later, they charged me $50.00 on Black Friday for the restock fee that they supposedly have taking out the same day they refunded me the down payment charge. I called about it to complain why did they charged me $50.00 when I no longer have mobile services with you plus that phone returned back to you all under 10 days. They said it was restock fees. Why wouldn't you take the $50.00 at the same day you refunded me the down payment?
The answer the supervisor could tell me or whoever the lady was excuse was that they couldn't take out at the time. That is bogus, everything is on the same card. Then she did any other valid reason of why they would do such a thing. Very deceitful company. I also asked why no one have informed me that they couldn't get the restock money of my card at the same time they refunded me. Again no valid answer, but yet you can do it on Black Friday over a month of canceling mobile services with these people. Just an evil thing for these people to do. I told her that was my gas money to get back and forth to work with and you all wait till over a month to draft $50.00? Do not trust a company that will do deceitful practices like this.

I call to cancel, and it was a 45-minute phone call, of guilt tripping, putting their competition down, etc. The guy offered to do this and that about 10 different times, and finally got to where they were willing to match Mint Mobile's price. I told him no, if Spectrum valued me as a customer, they would have offered their best price 35 minutes ago, and 14 years ago.
If I have to call in every year to fight to keep my rate from going up, or If I have to threaten disconnecting service for the mere possibility of reducing or keeping my current rate, then the value isn't there for me. The reason I like Mint Mobile? No gimmicks, pricing stays the same, and reliable service. That is all most customers desire in any service they purchase. Spectrum could benefit from studying their competition. I will never go back.

Our special rate was running out. I called THREE TIMES to see if they could do anything to extend it and was told flat-out "no" each time. So I set up with AT&T Internet and YouTube TV. Then when I called back to cancel, all of the sudden the CSR said he could keep the rate flat. I was on the phone for 45 minutes with this guy, telling him at least six times that I was done with them. But he would not give up. I was just about to ask for his supervisor when he finally did.

How about they record everything you say when called g the customer service lines but dont have an record of what the representative said to you. To get out of the service contract is not an easy process at all and they say one thing like yes this is your final bill, there will not be any further charges unless you don't return the equipment. Only to get a surprise bill a month after you turned your services off and returned all equipment on time.
The managers are just as useless as the representatives you talk to on the phone. They don't care anything about having loyal customers for over 10 yrs, 5 yrs, or 6 mo!!

First I was told I sent it back after the return time frame (it was not a return, but a warranty exchange.) Then it was that I should have sent it to Samsung directly (Spectrum's rep told me to send it back and sent me the new on). Then I called again and got a manager. Now they are saying I sent in a D grade damaged phone. It was not damaged, but had barely been used and kept in a case. They will be sending me the "pictures" of why they graded it low.

Where to even begin. I've been a Spectrum customer for about 7 years, and I had never, NEVER had any issues till the past year. I upgraded my mobile service to be able to upgrade my phone whenever I want as they advertise. But when I went to upgrade my phone, it turned out that the person who created my account entered my SSN wrong. So I spent a year trying to fix the issue with them. Then! After I was able to get ahold of someone who could help me with the upgrade, I was finally able to upgrade my phone. HOWEVER! I was told I had a 14 day period that if I didnt like the phone I could trade it in. So, before the 14 days I called to upgrade, SAME ISSUE. They had to put in ticket after ticket. By the time someone got to me, it passed the 14 days. SHOCKER. Then they kept saying there was an issue with SSN again.
Another 3 months trying to fix it. I was told it was fixed. So when I attempted again to upgrade, I was told my anytime upgrade wasn't available. Then someone else told me on my SSN was on a block list. Never herd of that before and the agents couldn't explain why either. Kept giving me the rub around, did everything they asked, for them to tell me they couldn't do anything. So, moral of the story. They are false advertising the anytime upgrade. They enable it if you upgrade once, and if you keep trying to use a service you're PAYING for, they add you to a block list which prevents you from upgrading. Bravo spectrum. What a scam you have become. My bf ended up taking over my account to see if he could upgrade since it'll be a new SSN but NOPE! SURPRISE!
Spectrum comes out with excuses to not upgrade, now its not the SSN, now it's the financing part. Even tho they keep telling you you can upgrade WHENEVER, HOW MANY TIMES YOU WANT, TO WHATEVER PHONE YOU WANT. And you pay for all of this just so they can come back and give you BS excuses to block you from using a service you're paying for. DO NOT USE SPECTRUM. THEY ARE A SCAM.

That my account would be closed on 10.26 due to non-payment. I said No, I wanted it closed NOW, equipment is being FedEx'ed back. I didn't want to be billed yet again, which would be a THIRD BILL by Spectrum. She assured me I would not be billed a THIRD time, that they would just remove that bill. Surprise, Surprise.

Well the new equipment makes my internet slower than what it was. The reason is that my old equipment was running at a high rate of speed due to the equipment itself. It wasn't until a month later that I found that out from the Spectrum technician that came out to test my line. So Spectrum knew this when they ran a speed test when I initially called. Which explains why they were so adamant about sending me the new equipment.

TDS moved into the area last year; after procrastinating for 8 months we finally called them and within a few days they efficiently slit-trenched a cable to our house and hooked us up within 2-3 hours. We now pay $49 a month guaranteed for 2 years. We use a Roku stick on our TV so we still get all the services we had before (HBO, Netflix, Disney, Britbox etc.). Best of all we can now download at 500 MBS!
Finally, you are required to go in to a Spectrum store to cancel. The man we dealt with was so dour it made us extremely uncomfortable. We felt like he could go postal on us at any second, and treated us as if he was doing us a favor and had just come from a funeral.

Billing cycle went through and am now paying a full month for two days of service after they refused to cancel initially. Had to call back a second time to get my account canceled after the first time days later. I thought it would be quick due to calling on a work break. When I let them know I had to go back to work I was told a new router would be coming to my house. Customer service refuses to listen and pushed back even though I requested a cancel multiple times in a call. I feel scammed by this company and as someone who doesn’t make a lot of money feel robbed for having to pay a month of service I am now not receiving. Their system needs to change. I will never go back and will share my experience to everyone.

Spectrum throttles your internet speed. They say they provide 300 mbps, but I just ran an internet speed test and I am getting 19 mbps download and 0.09 upload. Bullshit lying company. If there was actual competition in the USA, Spectrum would have already gone bankrupt.

Absolutely HORRIBLE service. I wouldn't even know where to begin on all the disastrous things I had to deal with! The final straw, I called a month in advance to have them shut off my service. The lady on the phone explained to me that I was paid through the month. I told her I did not care, I would take that loss and to just cut my service. I then get a bill for the month after having it shut off! I refuse to pay for service I did not receive. Of course, being the DISGUSTING company they are, they sent me to collections. I had a score over 800 until dealing with this trash company. I would NEVER go back.

Well I found out I couldn’t add my daughter's iPod due to it not having cellular service to it. So I told her there is no need for me to switch over to anything since I cannot add her tablet on. I told her Do Not Make any changes and to leave my account as it is. Would you believe she change my internet service from $90 to $101 without my permission and authority.
I’m so mad these people would do anything to make more money off from you and I hate that they are the only ones that service my area. I’m calling in about this and speaking with a supervisor!

I joined Spectrum Mobile in May 2025 after being promised three things: 30 GB of Mexico data, $40/month in home internet, and trade-in credits for our iPhone 11. None of these promises were kept. * In Mexico, my phone had no data. Spectrum admitted the rep promised 30 GB but refused to honor it because their system was not allowing it. * My internet bill came at $69 instead of $40 — only fixed after complaints.* The first iPhone trade-in was denied after receiving the new phone because it was not getting done in the right way on their system and they said that.
* In September 2025, the second iPhone trade-in (receipt showed $195 credit) was later denied. After we returned it with video/photo proof, Spectrum falsely claimed the phone was “damaged” and kept it. The photo they sent wasn’t even the right device. They refused to return the real phone. After filing complaints with the FCC, Attorney General, and BBB, Spectrum finally admitted mistakes, apologized, and issued partial credits ($30 and $599.99). But they still refused to refund the phone or return it. This isn’t just us — the BBB is full of similar complaints: false promises, denied credits, and fake “damaged” phone claims.

Unfortunately, Spectrum has been less than ideal for me. I had services through Spectrum for a few years and it was just one thing after another. The services, which may have been dependent upon my location, was honestly horrible. I had to reboot my equipment weekly and at one point had to completely change out equipment, that then proceeded to still have issues. Service aside, the monthly costs became astronomical. The opening account deals are great, until you've been there a year and then you're paying a ridiculous amount per month. Additionally, the communication about services is sub-par at best. The payment periods are different from service periods and this is not clearly communicated. Proactivity is not something they know about!
I am not one to complain about services, business, or anything really. However, I felt it necessary to be clear on how disappointed I am with Spectrum. The phone support staff is very professional and does their jobs well, but this does not make up for the inadequacies throughout the rest of the company. I absolutely do not recommend Spectrum unless it is your last resort.

Half of the time I have to go pull out my DVDs or old TV shows that I have to see anything on the TV set.

I’d like to warn anyone of dealing with Spectrum internet or cell phone service. We have used their service for fixed phone and internet for our home and business. Recently they offered to give us a rebate of $ 2500.00 for our cell phones if we would pay off our T-Mobile phones and transfer to Spectrum services. It was all offered over the phone with no documentation. It was a good deal but each time we talked it was with a separate individual and something new was presented. Third call I was told I would only get $500.00 per phone. I was later told to have three receipts of T-Mobile payments, the later 4 receipts. That was after we had cancelled T-Mobile and couldn’t access the account. Then we were told to send text of the purchase cost of our T-Mobile phones, then told that wasn’t sufficient and to send credit card statements showing the payment.
We did and were then told it was too late in spite of an email 5 days old, that stated we had 30 days. I pressed for more supervisor contact and finally was told we would only get $500.00 not $1500.00 to offset the $3,000.00 spent to pay off T-Mobile phones. They said all our documents were accepted but they based their decision on my credit. I had 22 years with my last cell phone provider, 10 years with Spectrum with no late or non payment. Then they said it was my credit rate, which was 850. The reply to that was, “I can’t tell you why, goodbye.” Don't trust Spectrum unless you have their plan documents and are talking with one person.

If Spectrum has taught me anything, it’s that this dystopian AI hell we all fear is a certainty. Companies like Spectrum have already stripped any humanity and empathy from their customer interactions. Maybe this is part of the plan, maybe one day we’ll demand AI save us from these awful humans.

Man was I relieved when I had to move and Spectrum assured me it would be no problem.

Although I must admit I was a little trepidatious, I confirmed my order the next day where I was made to feel comfortable and confident that my order would indeed show up on the date of my move in! I just needed to wait for the shipping order and I could track it, no problem. As the day to my move in got a little closer I began to get a little nervous I wouldn't have my equipment. Luckily I talked on chat and on the phone 2 days before my move in where I was reassured I would be receiving my equipment on the day of my move in. Thank goodness.
You see, I normally have little faith or success in people doing jobs I pay for or telling the truth about services. Luckily, Spectrum assured me they were different. Perhaps my outlook on life was mistaken, and maybe this company was reputable and did what they said they would do after all! Silly, grumpy, doubting, me. I need to have a more optimistic outlook on life. Moving is always especially stressful so I'm glad this company has my back. Today, the day before the move in, I received that confirmation tracking email. Relieved and assured I happily opened the email to find that everything every single customer service representative (4 different ones) had told me was indeed a lie and I was right to be apprehensive.

I recently switched to Spectrum Mobile under the promise that with my switch, I would receive internet service for $30/month for two years. Unfortunately, that promise has not been honored. From the very first billing cycle, I was charged $50/month for internet. I called customer service and spent over 45 minutes on the phone, where they assured me the issue was fixed. The following month, the exact same thing happened—I was billed $50 again. After another 30-minute call with customer resolution, I was told once more that the problem had been corrected. Yet, on my next bill, nothing had changed.
When I pressed them, Spectrum told me they had given me a “free line” for a year instead. That was not what I agreed to. I made it very clear that I wanted to pay for both lines and receive internet at $30/month for two years, exactly as promised. I even have this agreement in writing, but the billing issue still has not been resolved. This has been a frustrating and time-wasting experience. If you are considering switching to Spectrum Mobile, I strongly recommend you stay away. The lack of follow-through, misleading promotions, and poor customer service have been incredibly disappointing.

Spectrum, when it works, is typically fine; however, you never know when it will stop working completely. When it stops working as intended, you either get no internet availability or the service is completely useless. Last time Spectrum went out, it took them an entire day just to fix the issue, and after the issue was "resolved," internet speeds had been more than halved compared to how they were previously. Ping spikes were and still are constant, taking me from an average of ~43 ms to nearly 15,000 ms every few minutes. It becomes impossible to load anything when the service is so horrible.
Upon trying to contact Spectrum, they, of course, are using an AI service so that they do not have to hear people complain about their horrible product. If I could talk to a physical person, I would have; however, the AI I was forced to talk to kept talking over me (something I didn't think was actually possible) and made it impossible to request access to a real representative.

When I get in touch with customer service, they spend 45 minutes passing me from one person to another and then trying to tell me that these extra services have been added for my benefit because I've been selected for a special package deal.

I can't tell you how many hours I've spent on customer service lines. I'd quit Spectrum but they monopolize internet in my neighborhood. Heaven help us.

This cable company is the worst I've ever dealt with. I was invited to activate the included HBO max app, but the Spectrum login credentials are not valid through providers list, yet credentials work on local website. 30 minutes to reach customer service via chat or phone. The internet and cable frequently go down. And my 1982 VCR had better functionality (yes VCR, for those younger than 40 you may have to google it). When is the last time you saw a screen paint line by line, top to bottom?

I was transitioned in from TWC. Gradually prices went up and service went down. I tried to negotiate a lower price after being a customer since 2006 but was told they could not do it. We have recently been afforded the opportunity to signup with TDS (before Spectrum was the only option) so we took the chance as the prices were dramatically lower for at least two years. I called to cancel Spectrum and all of a sudden they offered a lower price and money off of previous bills as we were overpaying for a service we did not have. I said, "No thanks."
To make matters even more disheartening was that when we went to return the equipment at the Spectrum store, we were told that we had to wait for over an hour to speak to a representative, we were just returning equipment! Well we left and returned it to UPS, after being told by the Spectrum store clerk that that was no longer an option because contract was not renewed with UPS to do so. I called Spectrum and was told that was not true. I don’t know how you train your customer service reps but this was a nightmare.

I was a customer of Charter/Spectrum for 28 years. I had the opportunity recently to move to another company offering fiber optic service for $15 less per month. I canceled my Spectrum account only 7 days into the new billing period and Spectrum refuses to pro-rate my last bill, so I am paying $90 for 7 days of service. They refuse to budge. Terrible platform/terrible customer service.

My internet service went from $80.00 to $110.00. The $80.00 was for 07/24/25 to 08/23/25. The $110.00 is for 08/24/25 to 09/23/25. My wife called on the 23rd and they refused to discuss the bill with her, because it was in my name. When I got back I called on the 27th and was brow beat by an aggressive sales rep. He said after many trial closures that he would have to connect me to customer solutions, of which I was disconnected. I called customer solutions on 28th. I was told since I was such a great customer They could cut me a deal and quoted several options. I can't remember all of them but for verification all the calls were supposed to be recorded.
After all the runaround I told them I did not want to do business with them. She stated if I stayed with them she could give me sept for $50.00, but if I disconnected I would still pay $110.00. I opted to disconnect. These people have a lack of Integrity and no customer appreciation. I did tell her I would never do business with them and let every one I know to not deal with them. They can give this valued customer a deal to stay or pay 110.00 to go. Don't know about you, not the kind of people I want to deal with.

For my small town area, Spectrum had the fastest Internet, which is under 1gb mind you, and we still pay $100/ month. It disconnects for like a minute every night for shits and giggles, even though I'm the only one in the house using it. It didn't sound like very long, but it is when you're competitively gaming and get punished for leaving, because the game can't distinguish between an Internet disconnect and a genuine leave. It's so frustrating. We get no compensation.

Spectrum installers are messy. They leave the wires going all kinds of ways. All the wires are tangled. They don't care, in a hurry for the next job. We moved and they charged us $30 fee! I was upset. I'm looking around for other services of internet.

Everyone including myself keeps seeing TV ADS from Spectrum saying this or that programming is FREE just sign into your account and Add to your programming. Well why is it that the next thing you see after you do ADD these Additional programs A BILL INCREASE??? Spectrum is constantly going up and I don't mean yearly. It's throughout the entire year and have the nerve to say additional free programming!! This is just their way to get you to ADD additional programming THEN DROP the BIG BILL increase!! I think everyone knows them by now if you get SPECTRUM you WILL see increases no matter what lies are seen on TV!! And notices of increase is included in your Bill in small letters; so if you don’t want a PRICE BOMB to be DROPPED in your lap the next month better read your bill very carefully!!!!
