    This company is horrible. They take from the elderly, they steal money out of your account when you tell them do not debit your account anymore. They have stolen over 800.00 dollars from our account, they never have a supervisor available. This is such a sad company. They told me to go to the Clovis office (which has been closed for over one year) and they are not even aware of it. They told me they would be putting the funds back into the account by direct deposit since that is the way they took it out and now they state they will not be doing that they will be sending it when they can by check in the mail.

    We had Suddenlink for a little over 3 years and the service had interruptions at least once a month. Internet and cable was non accessible for hours at a time. We finally had enough and called to disconnect our services and we were transferred to the escalation department which is tier 2. We were promised four months for FREE…and our regular monthly charges after that. This was their way to compensate for all the outages I assume. We agreed to this term and well wouldn’t you know the 2nd month into this bam we had a bill. After a week on the phone with Suddenlink they said there were no notes on my file that could prove that was even true. We are no longer with Suddenlink thank goodness! But they do not stay true to their word! Buyers beware!

    Have been an existing customer for 3 yrs, my internet price keeps going up without any changes to my service and new customers are being offered internet for 1/3 the price I'm paying. Have called to see what can be done to drop my pricing as a loyal customer. I get "there are no offers at this time" from a foreign voice that I can barely understand.

    I've been getting less than 10% of the download speed that I've been paying for since early October (last 4 1/2 months). I've also been constantly in touch with customer service. They always sent technicians out to check my system and the technicians always find that the problem is not with anything on my side of the telephone pole. They keep promising that they will have Suddenlink infrastructure maintenance replace the "tap" from the main line that feeds into the drop to my home service. It has never happens. I'm getting mostly less than 10mbps download with intermittent outages. This is constant.

    There is no recourse. I have to have internet for my home-based business, and current speeds are not sufficient. Suddenlink unfortunately enjoys a complete city-complicit monopoly in my area which is not going to end any time soon. Suddenlink is taking full advantage of this. They will not repair the problem and they will not refund anything that I've paid for the 200mbps that I have not gotten over the past 4 1/2 months. They lie, they cheat, and they steal.

    Having connectivity issues and TV issues at separate occasions. Then they say they're going to send a tech out; then call me back from like India and I can't understand anything that's being said. Hire Americans again to assist Americans that way we can properly understand one another (this is just proper business - if you hire someone I can't understand then how can I ever do business with you over the phone?)... So because we can't understand one another my tech won't come out so I'll have to do a 'chat form conversation' and they'll probably call my phone back and I won't be able to understand anything. Outsourcing jobs is okay, but not in the tech service and customer service department where it's critical to understand one another. This shouldn't be insulting - just common sense.

    They just suck! Unfortunately the best (read ONLY) option in the area. Signing up with them is like signing up to run a marathon after you put the time training to run the marathon and then finding out after you run the first mile of the race that you have to add a 5 lb weight to your ankles every mile. YOU WILL NOT GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. I have a 100mbps connection... Speedtest says under 10 on a regular basis. Update December 2021 - January 2022: NO. THEY ARE NOT AWESOME TO WORK WITH!

    - Nobody in customer service can articulate a sentence in English.
    - Website says no outages, Phone says outage.
    - Suddenlink employee cut the cable to my house... 3 weeks have passed... still not fixed, despite trucks being spotted in my neighborhood and 2 canceled appointments for "safety" on sunny clear days?
    - They overcharge for services they haven't provided.
    - They won't allow existing customers to change to lower priced plans that provide faster speeds.
    - Their technicians will tell you they don't have the infrastructure to support the plans they sell.
    - Despite multiple outages for more than a week at a time, they refuse to issue credit...

    - They want me to pay $60 for an "appointment" scheduled 2 weeks out which is due to problems that they are responsible for... **?

    MY BILL IS OVER $200 a month consistently with overage charges despite being out of town for several months! SO ** CROOKED! There are supposed to be laws to protect consumers against such monopolized practices... but they are literally the only company in the area which offers this service. I was one of their first highspeed customers... I have been a customer for over a decade. I can say there has been ZERO improvement. In fact it has gotten worse. Suddenlink definitely gets my vote for WORST COMPANY IN NORTH AMERICA!

    Tip for consumers: DON'T IF YOU HAVE A CHOICE. Suddenlink operates as a monopoly unfortunately. And the gooberment is poor at enforcing abuse of this. WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR YOU TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS??? Products used: 100 mbps High Speed Internet. References to other complaints - BBB rating = f **. 1 star rating by hundreds of google reviewers **. 1 star rating by hundreds of Sitejabber reviewers **. 1 star rating by hundreds of Yelp reviewers in just about any city **.

    My family's had internet service through this company and its predecessor, Charter Communications since 1998. After renting an apartment of my own, I quickly exceeded the data limit (250 GB) and was offered a special promotional deal, which was a great value. When the deal ended (with no notice) the cost of my Internet service more than doubled (with no notice). The upgrade was meant to address data limit surcharges (of which I was also not notified). After repeated contact, the most accommodation they were willing to make (for a customer of 9 years) was a $15/mo. reduction. In summation: Service is good. Price starts off good. Customer service is terrible.

    There are good internet providers, there are bad ones and then there’s Suddenlink. They are truly in the league of their own. We have moved to a new home October last year. It’s a new construction and is out of the Suddenlink coverage. When I called them to disconnect the service at our old place, they asked if I wanted to transfer it to a new one. I agreed and submitted a request for cost-to-build (basically paying to get connected to a nearby Suddenlink fiber line that runs in neighboring community close to our home.

    A couple of months passed. Every time I called, they would transfer to a different department, yet nobody seemed to know if or when I would have my estimate. I spoke with customer care, residential sales, engineering dept, etc. Nothing. In February upon one of my follow-ups I was advised to try to run through business department. I have a home-based business, so I said sure, that’s fine, I just want the service. A guy from business department (Stephen), called and spend thirty minutes telling me how great he was at his job and how many happy customers they had. He seemed unfazed when I repeatedly told him that I was out of coverage and needed my own line built in order to get connected. No worries, he said, we’ll get the tech out asap and get you going.

    A technician came out a few days later, looked around and said “You don’t have the line, do you? Why would they send me here?” The best part came a few weeks later. Still hoping to receive a follow-up/cost-to-build estimate, I got a piece of mail from Suddenlink. It contained a two-month bill for business internet service package. The service they couldn’t provide in the first place. It’s now December 2021, and it’s been over a year since I submitted my first request. They are still “working on it.” I understand that right now Suddenlink has pretty much a monopoly on high-speed internet in Tyler, Lindale and other parts of east TX. However, I hope the time will come when an actually decent company/ies will take over Suddenlink’s market. If you can help it at all-steer clear from Suddenlink. Period.

    I've called Suddenlink several times in the 1 month that I've had their service.(or lack thereof). The customer service representatives are grossly incompetent, management is non-existent, and the service is atrocious! I've asked to cancel my service and they seem to fall prey to selective amnesia when it comes to that. In essence, they hang up on you. In all of this, they bill in advance. I cannot believe that a more reparable ISP won't service the same areas that these clowns do. I have moved out of 2 cities trying to relieve myself of them, but they're always the only company servicing these areas, therefore, they don't care about the level of service they give because there is no competitors. The nicest thing I can say about them is: I HATE THEM!!!

    I "had" Suddenlink for well over 10 years. Their cost go up without any enhancements or prorations after they have been down. When you go complain about their rates they will offer you a better deal if you stay. (They should just not increase their rates.) After I cut off my Internet and telephone service, my cable cost did not go down by much. I was told this was due to the bundle discount I had before dropping two of their services. I intend to drop the cable service soon and finally be rid of Suddenlink. I gave it a one star because I couldn't go lower!

    I'll try to keep this as short as possible. I work from home and run a business from a home office. Suddenlink was the only option offering decent speeds. The cost for business internet was pretty high for what you get, but I decided to go for it anyway. The service is spotty at best and outages happen daily. That's not the worst of it though. There have been at least 3 occasions where the internet was out for more than 24 hours in the last month. I have tried to call them to address this on the phone, but they will do everything they can to pacify you with no real resolution. They will promise too that you will get credited for the outages and

    that they are doing everything they can but in reality, absolutely nothing comes out of it. I have not received one single credit from Suddenlink.

    When I tried to talk to a manager, they will either hang up on me or tell me that the manager is unavailable every time. On top of this, they are charging me for a modem that I already returned to them. Again, I called on this and all they did was pacify me with no real resolution. I have lost thousands of dollars due to the outages. I have a database where I was recording all the outages for 2 weeks and it happens pretty much daily. On top of all this, they double charged me one month and they couldn't even get the initial order correct. I paid for a static IP and they did not add it to my account until I complained about it. This is the worst ISP that I have ever had hands down. I now need to purchase a second internet service so I don't lose any more money and pay double because this internet company is completely incompetent.

    On 3/8/2021 I put in for a transfer of service to my new address in Saint Albans, Wv, got the confirmation email & # said tech would be at new residence 3/11/2021. Tech showed up, hook modem up and used his personal phone to log into the modem, was there for about 5 minutes and left. Come to find out my username and password was changed to something else. Then changed my service plan from internet 30 to 400. They also took my $6.99 service plan off so then I don't get a bill for 2 months. Then when I do get a bill my internet is costing me $ 90 for internet that I didn't change then they charged me $100 for the tech to come to my apartment and screw the coax into my modem. So after all that they said I owed the $299.99 for the 2 months I didn't receive a bill and for the tech that was supposed to check all the cables and didn't cause I had the safe guard on my plan.

    So they discount my service and 30 days past and I received a paper from a collection agency from New York saying I owed Suddenlink 300 dollars. So that's when I went outside at my apartment build to take pics of how their techs hook stuff up however and leave the buildings looking trashy. Multiple wires just hanging everywhere, cut boxes hanging my apartment and the 1 beside of mine was on a 3 way splitter and just laying on the ground, not grounded, not protected from the weather, not protected from someone trying to steal internet or anything. Just ugly looking and nasty.

    If I was the owner of suddenlink I would be ashamed of the way my employees treated other people's property and the way that customer care reps treat the customer cause I called about all this the lady told me that I was the one that made the changes to my account when I didn't. Also my account # changed when I moved. She also told me that the way the internet was hooked up outside was up to the Technicians. It was their choice how it's done, not her problem then she just hung up, didn't try to help me or anything, just she was mean, hateful and had no interest at all in trying to help or figure things out.

    Is it just me or is every interaction with Suddenlink make you cringe in frustration and worrisome for humanity? Second time moving in a year and to be honest, moving my Suddenlink service, and the eventual headache it would bring, was a factor in wanting to move or not. Sure enough, my scheduled appointment came….and went. Called customer disservice and asked about the status of my technician 2 hours after the appointment time. Was told they were held up by traffic and would be calling shortly. No more than 5 minutes later, I get the automated phone call stating the technician was on the way. Excellent! Until the technician never showed up. Trying to withhold my frustration and expletives, I called customer disservice once more and they informed me there was no excuse, and they automatically rescheduled me for the next day, first thing in the morning.

    As the anger sharks entered my brain, I said “okay, what’s another few hours, it’ll get handled”. Day 2: appointment time comes and goes…and yet another phone call to customer disservice. Again, no reason for getting stood up, just that they had to reschedule my activation for the next day (deja Vu?). With the anger sharks swimming aggressively in my head, some poor woman that didn’t speak English got the bad end of a grown man temper tantrum. (If you ever read this, I’m truly sorry…but you work at Suddenlink so you deserve it).

    Day 3: same story…however, as I write this review, I am on the line with customer disservice with an individual who does not speak English, nor does he seem sober enough to receive a first name and last name, as he asked me to verify it three times. But then I think…he works at Suddenlink, I would probably be an alcoholic not wanting to work either. I would just like internet so that my spouse can get back to working from home, and my son can stop playing local games of Mario kart. The only thing we have yet to unlock is Suddenlink's ability to operate as a functioning company. Thank you for listening…except Suddenlink because we all know you’re not listening.

    Third tech came out, ran the same tests, but this time ALSO ran tests from the "TAP" (where the services comes out of the ground). Documented errors at the tap, explained that was why my network was slow and always going on and off. Sent message and pictures of the TAP error to his supervisor and said a "maintenance" person would be here in 48 hours to replace the TAP. 10 days later, no one has shown up, I'm 28 days into my new house and the service is pathetic. NO other provider so I'm trapped with terrible service and no one who cares.

    Do not use Suddenlink. They are liars and do not care about their customers. I am cancelled my service with them in July the week of the 24th. When I called to cancel my service the Customer Service Rep did not inform that I needed to return the equipment. I have received two bills stating that I owe SL 458 dollars for the equipment that wasn’t returned. Told two CSR and the Supervisor that I no longer live in the house bec I sold it and I don’t know who bought it. The two CSR said to contact the new owners and ask them to return the equipment for me. Who asks a stupid question like that? That’s easy. tTe inept people who work at Suddenlink. The supervisor was no help either. Btw the equipment is 12 yrs old.

    Suddenlink doesn’t care about their customers. All they care about is the money. They are only friendly with the new clients. The moment you have an issue with their service or a CSR the attitude changes. They over charge and their internet stinks. Save your money and use a different cable and Internet company. Tell your friends and/or family not to use them and if they are beg and plead with them to find another cable and Internet company.

    I have been with Suddenlink for almost 9 years. Since they were bought I have had horrible service. I was down a full month due to a line issue and they wanted to credit me only $19.00 for the outage took me two weeks to sort that out since I do not pay just $19 a month for my service. Since then my service is up and down with outages. Of course they do not credit anything for these outages unless you are out a full 24 hours.

    I reluctantly signed up with Suddenlink for the main purpose of attending college online and streaming. For around 75.00, I received 1 T of internet. My husband home since November was anxious about missing the Super Bowl so in January we added cable to our service. The price jumped to about 210.00! That was adding only the basic core, this was music, shopping, and Hispanic channels. Our actual channels we wanted from that was 3 or 4, We could have had that with antenna. Every time after installation, I had to negotiate the price. It only took a couple days to find out we needed the next package up. This total was 276.00 a month. After three calls and two and a half hours of negotiating, they finally accepted 226.00. That was the best offer for a current, senior couple, living on a fixed income.

    By April, I had lost my part time job and we had to cut down on bills. This was where we assumed we could get the pre-cable pricing. Absolutely Not! That was how they reacted. That was an introductory rate we lost when adding cable. For 155.00, they would be happy to offer us their basic 1g internet...I was able to, again after three days of trying, negotiate to a lower (-40 lower than start, 65.00 higher than we started). Not much competition, it took me a couple months to find fiber optic lines became available through Frontier Communication unlimited for 39.99. Customer service is great. We are wondering why a large corporation like Suddenlink can be so greedy. Don't believe in their commercials. I have never met anyone who was happy about paying them. We just lack competitors in our market.

    On another occasion, I was calling about my bill, the incompetency I heard was unbelievable on the how the billing is cycled. On another occasion, the Customer Service Rep could not answer the questions I had regarding automatic pay, so he sent me to a phone that rang off the hook about 20 times. When I finally cancelled my service, a customer service rep sent me to a building that was closed and empty. He then sent me to another address that was closed and empty.

    We're moving to Georgetown, TX in September. Scheduled our Suddenlink service set up on 8/7/2021. Called to cancel service 8/8/2021 because they were charging us $174.14 for service that would not begin until 9/7/2021. We don't even close on the property until 9/3/2021. They withdrew the $174.14 from our acct. On 8/11/2021, we called Suddenlink and spent WAY TOO Much of OUR time on the phone with them. We talked to a guy named Tulio who after 34 minutes gave us a refund confirmation number and stated the refund would take 10-12 business days. That was unacceptable. We demanded to speak with a manager, but Tulio told us they were all in a meeting. We demanded a manager call us back within the hour.

    Manager Michael called us back in under an hour, he apologized and said the customer service rep was doing his job according to company policy. Michael said he could process the refund differently, but it would still take 3-5 business days for it to hit our account. He gave us a different confirmation number. Today, business day 5, 8/18/2021, refund is still not in our account. Called Suddenlink AGAIN and were told, "The refund was never initiated/submitted" and we were given a third confirmation number.

    As of now, we have filed complaints with the FCC and the BBB as well as contacted our bank to file a fraud alert for unauthorized withdrawal of funds for services not received. Unfortunately, Suddenlink is the ONLY internet provider in Georgetown, TX. Otherwise we would not do business with them at all.

They would have to get a bucket truck out to repair this "serious failure" which would be another 5 days. Ok, I asked how I would get refunded for the days of lost service. They told me to call back after service was restored, and they would credit back the lost days. This seemed strange, but whatever, I'll call back, I said.

    The next day, my husband (who is stuck at home unable to do his school-work without internet) decided to climb the pole to the node to look at it. He realized they had cut our line, likely mistaking it for our next door neighbor's line who recently moved out. On his next call to customer support, he informed them that he had identified the problem - their service man had cut the wrong house's internet. Which he confirmed and also confirmed that they had been aware of their mistake the entire time, and they would actually be able to escalate the ticket and get someone out next day. He also shared the picture of the cut cable with the rep, who responded with, "You mean, they just? That's not standard procedure for disconnection!"

    I handed my equipment back to their service tech and said I was finished. He said he would make sure it was cancelled. Then I called in to their customer service department and waited 90 minutes to talk to them. I cancelled 5 days before the next billing cycle. They kept sending bills anyway. They mailed me two extra bills after I cancelled their service. I complained and they turned a charge of $150 in to a collection agency. If you want frustration and disbelief to enter into your life, this is the company for you.

    After having our tv service cut off as a mistake by Suddenlink, we could not get anyone in customer service to turn the service back on. This is with our account in good standing (it was always in good standing). The arrogance of the customer service group and their unwillingness to even listen to our situation was infuriating. If there was any other service in our small town, we would be using it. Please be aware that if you need help from this group, you will not get it.

    I recently moved from Massachusetts where I had Comcast. Aside from Comcast's high rates, their service was exemplary. Now I am in North Carolina where Suddenlink is my ONLY choice. Their provided services, especially in the premium channels, is very subpar. On Comcast in either HBO or Showtime, their on Demand videos returned about 400 choices. Suddenlink gives about 20 for each and none are recent releases. Additionally, they do not provide back years of series. For example, at the behest of my wife I wanted to watch HBO's "Chi" from the beginning, however, Suddenlink provides only the most recent year and this is true for any series.

    In contacting their customer service, more times than not, I get someone on the line whose ability to speak and understand the English language is tenuous at best. When trying to find out why we cannot get Amazon's Prime the service rep had no idea what we were talking about. If there were another company for me to switch to, I would do so, immediately. This company needs to be investigated by the FCC for false claims they advertise; they advertise that you can get Amazon Prime.

    Suddenlink is the only internet provider in our area. We now pay $93.49/mo for what is supposed to be 15mbps speed. Of late, there are many times when the service drops out completely. Now, the internet speed we have is less than 1 mbps for much of the day, and the service is often unusable. Speeds have deteriorated greatly during the past year. Attempts to resolve the issue have been unsuccessful. The staff I have contacted are always polite, but the internet service is remains terrible.

    I and others have contacted the mayor, attorney general and BBB about the unsavory price gouging and terrible service by Suddenlink here for years but they have steadily worsened and someone needs to do something about them. Our former mayor had a "meeting" for people to vent about Suddenlink several years ago and his "fix" was to turn them over to the Arkansas Attorney General, who also did absolutely nothing about their criminal practices so I am trying once again to get something done.

    Their advertised prices have nothing whatsoever to do with what they actually charge us customers. They lie, cheat and steal. When they mandated our renting their HD boxes they said it would be $5 per month; another lie, it's at least $11 per month for our one box. They just raised our bill by $40 for "local" broadcasting, very little of which we ever watch. They pad the listings with sport (which we never, ever watch) and fill in the rest with the same movies and assorted re-runs to the extent that all the channels look the same as each other every day.

    The last time I was in the hospital (more dead than alive) the television just suddenly went out, due to no fault of ours whatsoever. When we finally talked to someone on the phone who spoke adequate English for us to understand them they insisted we take the HD box in to them and pick up another. Another which did not fix anything at all. Another call to another non-English rep on the phone (after all kinds of waiting on hold and going from one thing to another on their voice mail system) they failed to correct the problem via their system and scheduled a repair person for whom we had to wait for for days and who finally got the cable TV up long enough for him to then disappear into whatever Suddenlink hidey hole he went back to.

    Another miserable call experience, another fail on the part of the non-English tech to fix it and another repairman scheduled, again not until days later, hence our being without television service for a week and their promising that they would credit our account for that week of no service. The second loud-mouthed repairman finally did get the Suddenlink failed system running again (at least so far for the TV but Internet still failing every day) but Suddenlink not only did not issue the promised credit for loss of service for a week but had the temerity to bill us an extra $60 for their man to repair their system!!!!

    I've been on the phone to two of their non-English speaking techs this morning with both of them doing nothing other than saying they would report the problems and IF Suddenlink decided there was an error (HAH!) they would correct the next bill. Yes, I have had to pay their price gouging, lying, cheating charges for now because I actually care about doing things in a legal and moral manner, unlike Suddenlink or anybody else we do business with these days.

    Jonesboro has changed mayors but he is cut from the same cloth as the last and is another total fail. I hope that you will be more efficacious than arrogant mayors or uncaring Attorney generals or the Better Business Bureau. I am still trying to have faith in human beings, at least until proven wrong. I find only a few reviews for Suddenlink online that are not limited to 1 or 2 stars for rating and I can only think that it's Suddenlink employees or stockholders that would rate them any higher. Our problem is they have a monopoly in our small town, making finding a better provider impossible at this time.

After one year of no internet a collection agency billed me sixty dollars for cancellation fee. Never did Suddenlink inform me of this fee.

    We had subscribed to Suddenlink for 4 months service and they require you to give a 30 day notice when to disconnect. We totally verified the last day we needed the service for and they went out and disconnected it almost a month early. It took us two days of phone calls, about 8 hours on hold to finally get the right service guy that could instantly re-connect us. We dealt with about 15 service people that kept saying 24 hours until they could get it back. We even verified for sure we needed internet up to a certain disconnect day and the guy (who sounded like he was from another country - imagine that), said no problem.

    This is one of many problems we have with this company from getting the original set up/hook up day scheduled, which took about 5 phone calls to get straightened out to extra billing charges on the second month that SUDDENLINK went ahead and charged to our credit card with absolutely no authorization. About 5 phone calls later and 3 to 4 hours on hold, with calls being dropped, we were able to get the illegal charges reversed.

    One huge problem with this company is that when you call for customer service you get someone most of the time that has no idea how to do anything except apologize or hang up on you so you have to start all over and call about 5-10 representatives before you get in touch with someone who knows how to take care of business. The service was good when it finally got hooked up but I would highly not recommend it because of monthly problems we had with Suddenlink and terrible customer service. Possibly the worst I have ever seen from any business anywhere. If you enjoy frustration, go ahead and get Suddenlink, but expect terrible customer service when you need anything from them, and keep an eye on your credit card charges!! If we didn't track our charges on our credit card, they would have gotten away with illegally adding charges to our card for services we never ever requested.

Now my old roommate is moving out and went to cancel the account and found out it is still in my name. It has been over a year since I used the service and they were still running it under my name.

    I have had it with this company. After requesting a bill for 6 months, being charged late fees for the bills I never received and making multiple phone calls to get the matter resolved I’m told it’s my responsibility to pay my bill and that I should go online and figure out what I owe. So apparently it’s ok for them to not send a bill but it’s required you track it down and pay on time. Next issue... price for life is a lie. Only 12 months with no explanation for the price increase. When I was able to speak with someone after being on hold over an hour all they can tell me is look in the top corner and you will see the difference in price. Guess they assumed I can’t read but couldn’t give an explanation as to why it increased.

    Third Issue.... I pay my bill several weeks in advance now (usually prior to receiving the bill) to ensure there are no late fees. Odd how my check never seems to be processed until the day after it’s due and then I’m given a late fee. Then I’m forced to waste my free time sitting on hold in an attempt to correct the problem. Today I’m calling prior to the due date because it’s been 16 days since the money was sent by my bank. I asked for their suggestion because I do not want to pay twice this month and here is the response....”I do not see nothing about a check. The bill is still due.” It’s unfortunate there are no alternatives for internet in my area. It’s next to impossible to speak to a person, they are very rude and generally offer zero help after you have patiently waited over an hour for each phone call. If I could actually trust this company I would sign up for automatic payments which is what they want so you don’t notice the price changes and fees.

Both months I paid two weeks in advance, but nothing was credited until much later. When I asked why, I was told it was due to COVID - that they didn't have people working in the office! For a company this large that has plenty of resources if they're willing to supply their staff with alternative methods of doing their accounting, this is a ridiculous non-answer.

    So I called Suddenlink a few weeks before we moved to new address. I told him 203. For some reason he put in 206. The tech never called to tell me he was on his way. He hooked up service at that address. I called to find out what was going on. They said I had service hooked up. Clearly I did not since no one showed up at my house. I explained to them that I saw the Suddenlink guy at my neighbor's house, expecting them to come to my house next, thinking the neighbor had Suddenlink at their house to do some work. I went inside and came back out and Suddenlink was gone.

    I tried to get this resolved all weekend with customer service. They had no clue what was going on or what I was trying to explain. I even got a work order later in my email about the work done, the equipment/serial numbers and all of that with a signature on the work order which was not mine. I finally asked them to stop service at that address and have a tech install service at the right address which is the 203 address. They finally showed up 3-4 days later.

    But I wondered what about the equipment that was still at that house? So I called in to talk to Suddenlink. When I listened to the automated process it said that I owed $6 for the service at the 206 address and I would have to pay it before I could proceed with anything else on the call (like talking to a human). I called again and found a way around that to finally talk to customer service. They said the equipment is something I would have to return. And it's tied to my credit. But I didn't sign for it. It clearly has someone's else's name for the signature. I decided to go to the Suddenlink store and they gave me a number to call and ask for retentions. I called them and they agreed to remove the $6 charge and told me the equipment would not be an issue.

    Here we are a week later and I decided to check on that. So I called today and they said that there is a piece of equipment still at that residence and that I would have to return it to the store or mail it in. I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO THE HOUSE. It's not my residence. I don't know why they let Suddenlink in. I don't know why Suddenlink did not verify whether it was my house or not. I don't know why Suddenlink didn't call me to tell me they were on the way or why the technician didn't call me to ask if it is ok for some random person to sign this work order. The funny part is when I did get service hooked up at my house I asked the guy if he needed my signature. "No I don't need it".

    This has been a very long week and a half. I have spent hours (seriously probably over 15 hours) on about 20 calls trying to do the right thing here. I don't know what else to do other than let everyone else know. I realize that I could just go over to this random house and ask for the equipment back. There are other reasons why no one in the neighborhood will go to that house. So that's not an option. I also don't understand why Suddenlink cant send a technician over to that house and pick it up or when they went to disconnect service they didn't pick up the equipment then. I'm at a loss for words...

Looks like Suddenlink is pretty much the only game in town for internet and tv unless you want to go with a satellite dish, which I cannot do as I am renting. Installation went fine, internet and tv are working great. But as I have the "value" package, there are some channels I would like to watch but don't get, I decide to call them and upgrade. After waiting for 30 minutes on hold, finally get a CSR who I can't understand at all. Tell him I'd like to upgrade to the next package. He said, "You need to upgrade your internet so you will have unlimited data." I said, "No, I was told when I signed up for your service, there would be no data caps." He said, "Sorry, you were signed up for the wrong internet." I also told him I was mailing my check today to pay my bill, and he states, "Sorry, we don't accept checks."

    I said, "Well obviously you do, as I paid last month's bill with a check and it shows credited on my current bill." I asked him where he was located, he said the tri-state area. I asked, "Is that in the United States?" He said, "Sorry, we are not allowed to tell you where we are." I asked to please speak to a supervisor, he said he would connect me, then hung up on me. I called back, another 20-minute wait. Spoke to Akmed. Explained I wanted to speak with a supervisor and was hung up on. He said he would try to help. He verified that yes, there were data caps on my internet plan, I get 250 mps per month. And yes, they DO accept checks to pay my bill by mail.

    I then said I would like to upgrade my tv service. He said, "Wait three months and then call again, if you upgrade now you'll lose your discounts and have to pay full price." So let me get this straight... I want to upgrade my service so I will get more channels AND will be paying you MORE MONEY per month, but you tell me to call back in three months?? I am filing a formal complaint with the FCC, this company is the ABSOLUTE WORSE and they should not be allowed to stay in business.

    Signed up online for tv and internet my bill was supposed to be about $86.00 a month. Instead I just logged into my account and my bill is $108.00 a month. I expected taxes and other charges to be less the $10.00 a month NOT $22.00. The following 2 charges should have been disclosed at the time I enrolled online, Broadcast Station 15.00 Programming Surcharge, Sports 6.65 Programming Surcharge. Not doing so is FRAUD as far as I am concerned. Your internet speed is slow and down at lest 2 or 3 times a week as well as the TV. I regret ever doing business with you and advise anyone who asks not to do business with you. This company has no ethics.

    Suddenlink's technical services are fine. They've provided my Internet since I moved to Texas a year ago. However, they are appalling when it comes to their billing department. Shortly after I moved here, they shut down my service for non-payment. Except... I had not received a bill. There was no way for me to know that I needed to paid a bill that I hadn't gotten.

    I paid my bill then, and suffered a late fee, but I thought I could ask for a return of the late fee given that I hadn't received a bill in the first place. I called up Suddenlink and explained my problem. Whoever it was I was dealing with then informed me that "there were plenty of ways" for me to know I owed them money and if I was I was just too stupid to...

    I asked to speak to the individual's supervisor. Nope. No such person was available. And that was that... I'd think that my own experience was unique, but it soon turned out that my whole town has suffered similar problems with Suddenlink. In fact, Georgetown's city council officially expressed its dissatisfaction with Suddenlink in a public resolution (**). To the best of my knowledge, though, nothing has come of this. Basically, I'm just waiting until I can change providers.

    I have been with Suddenlink for about 12 years. The first 8-9 years were great, but since they were purchased by Altice, reception and customer service had dropped into the toilet. I set up appointments for a technician and no one shows. When I finally actually get to talk to someone, they tell me that I never had an appointment even though I have the date, time, and person’s name I talked to. Then they will call me multiple times saying that if I will follow their orders over the phone, they can fix it (that never happens). I think that they actually work at it to get this horrible. There is no way a company can be this terrible by accident. Hopefully another company will come into my area and I can kick Suddenlink to the curb.

    I ordered Suddenlink service to be installed on November 1st, 2020. I am having multiple problems and will list them off.

    1. The technician came out and set up the service. While he was there he left a bunch of trash clippings AND the entire cable roll in my yard. The next day we noticed pixilation on the television. We tried to call customer service and finally got a person to send another technician out. The technician ran tests on the service and then told me that the issue was at the pole. He told me that he would make an appointment for the guys to come out with the truck and fix it. He never did.. Pixilation continues. Multiple calls for A TECHNICIAN AND ALL ARE ANSWERED BY A ROBOT THAT WILL NOT SEND ME TO A HUMAN.

    2. The remote control for the living room will not pause, rewind or fast forward. I am back on the phone trying to get someone to help me. They kept transferring my call and then trying to sell me mobile service. (I do not want mobile service). I finally get someone on the phone who answers my question, They told me the reason the living room remote would not pause, rewind or fast-forward, is that I am on the basic DVR plan and would have to upgrade to a higher DVR plan. I agree to get a bigger plan. I am again put on hold and transferred. After being on hold for 15 minutes, the call disconnects.

    The following day, I went into the local office to speak with a person. The representative at the desk did not know what I was talking about and said "Well, just delete some movies for more space." I had to explain to them that Suddenlink offers 3 different DVR plans (DVR, DVR PLUS and DVR MAX) and I that I wanted to move up to the next plan (DVR PLUS).

    They could not figure out how to activate the second remote on the DVR Plus plan and so the plan was not activated. They gave me a number to a "direct line" with the Lubbock office and said they could help me. This was a lie. The number was not a direct line, it was just the same old suddenlink number in which you have to answer a million questions and then pray you get a human working in the department that you need. They just keep giving me the run around and nobody seems to have any answers

    3. By now I have called suddenlink about the pixilation and DVR concerns at least 20 times. I have learned not to give them more than one issue at a time because it seems to confuse them. I am fed up and decide to disconnect my service for cable. At this time I do NOT have a choice for internet due to the fact that I need high-speed internet for my school and career, and that they are the only service in my area that is not wireless. So I called today NOVEMBER 18, 2020 and the woman on the line told me that she had disconnected the cable. She quoted me 140 a month for ONLY INTERNET SERVICE. After our call had ended I began to think about that 140 a month. She had told me it was that high because it was not bundled in with television. I clearly remember the internet being advertised as 1 gig- Unlimited Data PRICE FOR LIFE of 70.00 a month.

    So I went back online to see what it would cost a brand new customer (if I had done this in the first place), and it is currently being advertised as 60.00 a month PRICE FOR LIFE. So WHY are they quoting me 140?? I need assistance with this issue. I called the billing department to ask about this. She tells me the previous lady DID NOT DISCONNECT MY CABLE.. so I was straight up lied to.

    I was forced to use Suddenlink for three years while we lived in Louisiana and I hated it. Not only was the initial cost more than twice what our bill had been with AT&T, but the service was slow as a slug and left us watching spinning circles instead of television shows. But that wasn't the worst part of it. Each month my bill came it was a few dollars higher than I'd been quoted. Finally, Suddenlink told me the reason my bill was going up was so that they could improve their service. I waited for two more years.

    Once their "new, faster internet speeds" were ready they told me I could add the better service for only $10 more a month, making my bill $128 a month for something I had paid $40 previously. Once I moved they also helped themselves to another $350 for equipment they claimed hadn't been returned even though I held a receipt in my hand with the signature of their employee, I still had to wait 3-5 business days for them to locate the equipment before they would issue a refund, despite the fact that I had called (they won't let you cancel online) and requested my account be removed from autopay when I cancelled my account. I will never use them again. Not worth the headache or cost.

    First it's impossible to get a hold of a human to speak to. We moved into town from the country and were excited to have cable TV. Called to get an installation date and the nightmare began. They could NOT get our services installed correctly and continued to BILL us as if everything was up and running. This literally took 8 weeks to resolve and hours and hours and hours of missed work/wasted time on hold, chatting on the website, allowing 4 different dates of installers coming into the home, etc. It would be easy to change providers, but there are none in this area, so they have a monopoly on it. We are continuing to use them and I will say our internet service has been fine from the start. But be prepared for an installing nightmare and out of pocket expenses up front!

After hurricane Matthew, a tree took down the main service into our neighborhood, after they repaired if we have had spotty service at best. I cancelled our phone and cable tv last year after a tech came out to troubleshoot and charged me $60 but did not fix anything. I now use air antenna, and get excellent tv.

    My internet is required since I am a teacher and I have a grandson who comes here daily for his high school classes online. I also have a special needs grandson who lives with us and he uses the internet when it is working, ugh. I have researched for other providers but century link dial up is the only available service but won't support zoom or the other programs I need to run. I know this is not a monopoly because of century links service but Suddenlink sure acts like they are the only game in town. I'll be retiring in a couple of years and am making plans to move elsewhere where the utilities are more dependable and I can stop paying for service that I don't get.

Instead of “I’m so sorry you are having this problem” it’s, “we’ve completed our terrible shooting steps, we’ll send a technician out in 3 days between 2-5. There is a $60 fee.

    SuddenLink does not care about their customers at all! I am waiting on hold right now, (35 minutes so far) for the 3rd day. I have been charged for a missed service call when we waited all day and no one showed up. I called (and sat on hold) and told them no one came. They said they would send out another tech another day. I said to put on the service order that they must call me before arriving. NO call. NO tech. 2 Days waiting on SuddenLink. Decided to just say forget it and deal with the dropped service we are experiencing. Then the bill arrives and I am charged $60.00 for a missed Service Appointment. I am not the one that missed the appointment. As I said I am now on hold waiting to speak to someone again. The last two calls I was told that a supervisor would call me back, well that never happen! I suppose now I will be charged for a missed Supervisor call.

    Just spoke to a customer service person (Satima) that told me that "The Customer is wrong and the Service tech is right" The tech said they were there and have pictures of the house and the customer was not home. I said, "So you have pictures of my house and the cars in the driveway..." Then it was... "Well the pictures aren't coming up on my monitor right now." But the tech said, "He was there and the notes are on the account so we can not credit the $60.00 charge." At that point I said, "Ok then. I need to speak to a supervisor." I was put on hold again. She came back and said that she was unable to transfer anyone to a supervisor and the supervisor could not do anything about the charge because the tech's notes said I wasn't home. I have concluded from that, that Suddenlink does not have any supervisors OR they are very over paid for doing NOTHING. To summarize: Poor Service. Worse Customer service!

    I don't even know where to begin. The fact that I am taking the time to write a negative review should speak for itself. First, we signed up for Internet and phone. They came out 6 times before we finally got hooked up. But that was Internet only (the tech said there was no record of phone request). WiFi connection drops a lot (and then is restored automatically within minutes). Paying for 100mbs but speeds are 40-45mbs. Installation was supposed to be FREE, but $49 shows up on first bill.

    Signed up for an on-line account to see bill, can't access it. Tried to sign up for autopay, website kept crashing. Website is very very slow (ironic). Navigation is awkward (links don't work, etc.) Login and PW for second user signed up, does not work. Better chance at winning the Lottery than getting a live person on the phone. Average wait time is over 30 mins. When I select the callback option, sometimes I get a call back, sometimes I don't. When I do, the call puts me on hold then disconnects (at least 3 separate times). Multiple occasions I was told someone would call me back. Never happened.

    Recently, I finally selected new sales as the option, and I got a person. I asked to speak to a supervisor, then was on hold for 10 minutes of silence so I just hung up. (There is no Customer Service option, that should have been a clue. None of the other options apply, so the VRU just keeps bouncing me around or looping). Current wait time literally as I'm typing is 27 mins. Even on one of the days the install was supposed to happen, I got an automated call confirming. Tech never showed up. I called and surprisingly got a live human. He told me they don't do installs on Tuesdays. Lots of these issues would be tolerable. Mistakes happen. But the fact that it is nearly impossible to get someone on the phone is very troubling.

    SuddenLink has the market cornered in our area. They are the only decent provider and they lack a lot. They charge whatever they want. If you told me 20 years ago that 3 TV’s, internet and phone service would cost almost $300.00 per month I would say that’s crazy! Well it seems the cable company is the new “New” Ma Bell!

    Even Worse is their service. From outages to repairs. All are horrible. One time I went to their local office and asked them if the TV in their showroom worked every day... The sales lady responded by saying “yes”. I replied, “How much does that service cost? One that works every day!” No answer. When you call customer service, they make it as hard as possible to contact. You stay on hold for ridiculous amounts of time. Standard hold time is an hour plus. Has taken 3.5 hours.

    Once the service ticket is logged, nothing happens. After rescheduling a few times a technician arrives and he has no idea why he is there. Most likely doesn’t have the equipment needed. A call goes to a supervisor that is apparently behind the smoke wall like the wizard of Oz because you can’t ever speak to them. A rescheduled repair is made and nobody comes out. We have been waiting for 3 months to get a new service pole installed and our cable buried. I can’t count the number of inquiries we have made.

    I even called and left Dexter their CEO a voice mail. Not surprised, no return call. Seems to be top down behavior of no follow-up. Great job! I offered in my Voicemail to go fix his operations problems in Tyler. Somebody needs to. It is just a matter of time before our cable line is cut again. It lays across three yards and a new home construction site. We started trying to get this addressed before they started building.

    What they do well at is price increases, late charges for late payment and service disconnects. We forgot to pay our bill last month in part due to the fact they didn’t email us a notice and haven't for a few months. Maybe if I post this - SuddenLink will get in touch with us and remedy our problem. Going to them direct doesn’t seem to work. Any advice is appreciated.

However, I still have to pay my bill in its entirety when they haven’t fixed any problems and they’ve only gotten worse. I’m looking to switch to satellite. Any service provider is better than Suddenlink.

    They are horrible people. I live in a rural area with no choices for internet providers. They know they can keep adding to your bill because you have no choice but to pay it, while offering new customers the same service for a fourth of the price. Anybody with children has to have internet now because schooling is done online because of covid. A horrible business.

    I purchased a device called Altice Amplify from them. The person who sold it to me stated that it would make our WiFi better. We received it and tried to set it up. Only to find out through a service man who came to fix our modem that it was for a cable box. I didn’t get a cable box because we don’t watch cable. So this woman sold me something I couldn’t use and didn’t need. Fine. I call to send it back. I had to call 5 times because they kept hanging up. Finally was able to send it back. This was back in July. So these past 2 payment I have been Charged for this device that I no longer have.

    We need our WiFi so I paid the 1st one since according to billing there was nothing they could do. They stated that for the past month they could not locate the device I returned.

    I am a 53 year old who'd never in my entire life had any experience with a company bad enough to inspire me to write a negative review. Congratulations Suddenlink on having service so bad you inspired me to have to tell the world about it. I was moving so called to discontinue service. It took 2 separate calls and several hours of waiting to accomplish this, but finally I succeeded in cancelling my service and getting information on returning equipment. Then 2 weeks later I received a new bill. So called customer service again to find out why I was billed and was told they had no record that I'd ever discontinued service. Had to be transferred to separate department and again after extremely long wait time I spoke to someone who assured me that this time my service was discontinued. He said though I'd still have to pay the bill for the next billing cycle even though I'd returned equipment and already requested discontinuation 2 weeks previous.

    I was transferred to Customer service and told being they had no record of my making that request they couldn't do anything about the bill and I'd have to pay it. I informed then that they could bill me until the end of time but not only would I never give them another penny, I'd never be a customer of them in the future and I'd make sure and write a review of the horrible experience so others could know what kind of company this is.

    I paid an installation fee for CATV/internet to be installed at my elderly parents home in Abilene TX. On July 18th they showed. The technician was too big to go into the attic so he told them he would send someone smaller. He left a box and disappeared. Now, Suddenlink is charging me claiming the installation is complete. I called to ask for a refund of the installation fee. They told me since the installation was complete they would cancel the service but not issue a refund... Not to mention, they were charging me through 9/18 for service. What?

    The guy absolutely refused to issue a refund because I did not call enough. I am sorry, I assume after a few weeks they were just short handed. This is the age of Covid after all. Perfectly reasonable. I did call two weeks ago but the wait was hours. When the autobot called back I was in a meeting and unable to answer. I used to have suddenlink myself and was happy with them. It is sad to see how far this company has fallen. This is the worst service I have ever received. To charge a consumer for a product for which you did not provide. If I hook into the power grid without a meter, that is theft. How is this not theft, or at a minimum, fraud by agreeing to install for x amount and then not follow through... and still bill me for a monthly service you are not providing? Senseless and ridiculous. Nothing short of a full refund of installation fees and any monthly service charges will satisfy me. I believe this warrants an FTC complaint.

    Updated on 09/01/2020: I already wrote a review regarding my horrible experience with Suddenlink... I wanted to follow up. Today is Sept 1 and do you know that I STILL do not have all my services?!!? Third tech came and almost had everything done, except the internet would not connect. This tech is Jose, he has been wonderful! And it is not his fault at all and he is doing all he can... But it’s Suddenlink who keeps screwing up. So when their tech submitted ticket for my internet, for some reason, this disconnected my cable when suddenlink tried to correct. So for the past two nights, no cable. And never my internet. Going in three weeks to get internet and cable and still nothing. No empathy. No apology. No compensation. No service.

    I’m in the hospitality service and I am 100% all about customer service... Not only does their lack of knowledge to get my services on, but they have 0 customer service!! My services were suppose to be in Aug 19th... Here we still are. Again, if I had a choice, I’d drop suddenlink immediately. I’m fact I hear another cable service is to come in Victoria next year... I will be their first customer!! Suddenlink is the worse!!

    Original review: I currently (or did) have service with account 07707-547167-06 on Clydesdale Ln. for about 4 1/2 years of not longer at this address. On August 14th, I called to set up NEW service at address Gettysburg. I got quoted $135 plus tax ($145.15) for 1g of internet, 225 channels, $100 Amazon gift card Price for life plan. Prepaid the $145.15, and ready to go. (Oh they got and kept my payment.) I told them that on Aug 31st, I will cancel my service on Clydesdale as I am still living there until then. So in short, I needed to keep my current service, and add new service to new address. I received a confirmation email at 12:38pm with new account number ** along with new access code. Everything was great! Had appointment set up with technician on Wednesday Aug 19th from 2-5pm to set up service on Gettysburg. But, By the time I got home that same evening, I noticed another email at 6:49pm with account ** and my cable disconnected.

    I called that night, told them that I wasn’t suppose to have my service disconnected. Found out that instead of just adding new service, they they decided to change it to move and transfer and disconnect me at my current address. (Not what I wanted, and why change it? Who changed it? It was set up perfectly, but then 6 hours later, they decided to change it.) I was told they would correct it. Saturday, August 15th, still no service. I called several times, on hold no less than an hour before talking to someone. They ensured they were going to fix it. Sunday, Aug 16th, no service. Called again. Again two hours later was guaranteed that it would be back on. Monday, Aug 17th, called. Two and a half hour phone call this time, talked to sales to set up NEW service instead of move and transfer. Was told current service will be back on...nope.

    Twice I talked to someone on Monday Aug 17. I closed and signed papers on my new house on Gettysburg this day, but wasn’t too excited like I should have been because Suddenlink had really upset me and ruined my special day. Tuesday, August 18th, no service still, but decided not to call because I didn’t want it to ruin my day again. Wednesday, August 19th, called. Two hour phone call again, was assured it was ready. Technician that was originally scheduled to come set up showed up after 5pm. He still showed that I was a move and transfer instead of new service (after I talked to at least a dozen people who ensured me it was fixed)... After waiting for him for over three hours, he couldn’t set up and didn’t have the right equipment to set up. I called again and was reassured they had it right this time, set up NEW service again with the sales department and was told current service will be back on. Service never came back on.

    New technician to come Sunday, August 23rd. Still no service at current account. But I did go meet the technician at Gettysburg address for New service on Sunday.... I wasn’t surprised when the technician told me he didn’t have the right equipment to set up for 1 G of internet service and so he left. So here we are, no service still at current address... After a week and a half of calling and talking to numerous people. (Now it’s too late, I move into new house this week.) I actually got an email stating a have a credit for my closed account of $100.45. Guess they never intended in reconnecting service. So now I have to wait to call again tomorrow and try again for them to send a technician out to new house with right equipment. New account end in **. This is totally unacceptable.

    All I wanted was new service at another house. Instead I got disconnected at current address, two technicians have come and gone to set up new service and didn’t have right information or equipment. And still no service at current address and no service at new address. When if ever will they get it right?? You don’t have a choice where I live but to use suddenlink as it’s the only cable company available. So really they can do and treat you any way they want and there is nothing you can do about it. So frustrated! I can’t even set up my security system at new house because no internet... Here we all wait for suddenlink to get it right.

Called the sales department back and verified the install is free but they offer a premium package at an extra charge. Asked why doesn’t the billing department know about the charge. No one could answer me. But they did put notes on my account to have the fee credited. I was told to call the billing department back and they would be able to see the notes.

    DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE or proceed with caution! I HAD Suddenlink for about 18 month total. It approximately the 14th month and my bill doubled! After 3 weeks of constant phone calls and waiting for billing department to answer or be transferred, I was told I had to pay my bill or the service would be disconnected. I finally was able to talk to Trish in the retention department. After a hour of waiting, Trish told me that my account had multiple incorrect codes that increased my bill AND that I was NOT receiving the full internet speed that I was paying for due to not having additional modem. After another hour, she was able to "get permission" to give me credits to my account to lower my future bills.

    After waiting a month, the credits were applied and the 2nd modem was installed. About 2 months later I had to move and gave Suddenlink a 30 day notice to disconnect my services. Only verbal confirmation was sent after requesting an email confirmation. Additionally, the closest OPEN store was 2 hours away from my house, so I was told to mail my equipment using a pre-paid FedEx shipping label. My equipment was mailed on 20 July and a FedEx received confirmation for 27 July. It is now 18 August and I have been charged over $200 of equipment charges. Ticket was submitted to request information on the confirmation number and NOTHING has been found. Customer service agents claim they don't access and keep redirecting me to different departments.

    Tried to connect card processing machine. It worked perfectly in my offices a block away for many years. I called service which is a nightmare. The usual wait on phone is 30 minutes although on several calls it's been over an hour with several disconnects. The techs could not fix the problem and advised me to sign up for premium service at 17.99 per month. I did and after finally get through to them they could not fix. The tech put me in touch with ARRIS the maker of the router. The tech there told me she couldnt help because the arrangement with Suddenlink requires Suddenlink to handle all issues.. When I called back Suddenlink and told the tech what happened she advised me to buy a new router. I rent the router from Suddenlink.

    I could not have had a worse experience with a utility company. I live very rural and this was the only option for a long time; I used them for 3 years and there were constant problems, both with connectivity and customer service. Resolving random billing charges took months, if they were resolved at all, because the call would be escalated but a supervisor was never available. They'd promise to call back in 48 hours and never did, resulting in an endless cycle where I'd call and they'd say they'd have to call back. For tech appointments, technicians would claim I wasn't home (there's a pandemic, I'm literally always home), and if they did show up they'd insist the issues were not my equipment but a maintenance problem, yet it was never resolved. Technicians would frequently fail to show for appointments (always claiming I wasn't home, but I checked my security cameras and no techs appeared), and I would be charged $60 each time even if I disputed.

    The connection issues escalated until there were entire days where I had no service no matter how many times I reset the router or called tech support. This seriously impacted my job since I now have to work from home on video calls all day. I decided this month to switch to AT&T when my frustration reached a boiling point, and although it's more expensive I've had zero issues since and the stress relief is completely worth it. The cherry on top was Suddenlink never gave me any money back for the MONTHS I had interrupted or no service whatsoever. I deeply regret spending so much time paying for ridiculously poor internet, unnecessary stress, and poor treatment by technicians and customer service alike.

    If you have ANY other internet options, go with them over Suddenlink. I would never, ever recommend them and I hope never to be forced to use them again in my life. I'm not the only one; in a neighboring town, there was a town hall meeting where 100+ dissatisfied customers met with Suddenlink reps.

However it seems since Altice took over Suddenlink our service has diminished greatly. This past year has been absolutely horrible. It started in February when we would lose service a few times a week. Then it started to be a few times a day. Now it is off far more than on and during COVID 19 pandemic work from home the frustration has been elevated to max.

    We have called service department numerous times over the last 5 months with no fix in sight. They would send tech out and replace the modem. The next tech said problem was in feed line From pole. Then the next tech would say wrong cable in attic, not Suddenlink's problem. We hired an electrician to to replace cable and relocate modem. This seemed to work for a week. Then problems returned with a vengeance. Bottom line if you have a choice of Suddenlink or anyone else. Use anyone else.

    I switched to Suddenlink for internet service because of the awesome speed. I did not enroll in paperless billing because the sales person did not mention anything to me about the fee for a paper bill. However, she was particularly adamant about having me enroll in automated payments. Had I known about the charge for a paper bill I would have enrolled in paperless billing at the time I initiated the service. Nonetheless, I'm now enrolled in paperless billing. Since enrolling I have not received an email notifying me that my bill is ready and due. As a result, I was charged a late fee. That happened last month. So, I checked their site today (8/16) to be sure I'm enrolled and to make sure my email address is correct. Everything looks good.

    As of today, 8/16 I have not received notification that the bill is ready and due. I went to the Suddenlink site and there it is, the bill is due on the 25th and I have not received any notification and, my email address is showing correctly. I also saw the $10.00 late fee from last month (I never received notification that the bill was due).

    I can't win with this company. But they have my hands tied because they're the "only act in town" for cable internet service. I am just so frustrated. I had Suddenlink some time ago and had a problem with billing. As a result of that I switched to Directv and ended up paying a little more but it was so worth it, because I don't run into problems such as this. And, when you call Suddenlink, you can never bypass the automated phone system to talk with anyone. Maybe they don’t send email notifications that your bill is ready and due. If I could talk with someone, this could be clarified. Don't get me wrong I do understand I have a responsibility to know when my bill is due, I just waited too late to check and it cost me $10.00. Lesson learned. Horrible customer service.

    I became a Suddenlink customer at the end of January 2020. I was led to believe I had unlimited data and my first two bills were exactly what they should be. Then the coronavirus pandemic began and a stay home order was issued, obviously not the fault of Suddenlink but they agreed to the pledge Keep America Connected. They kept me connected, but not without charging me overage fees like crazy. My third bill with them had $120 of overage fees! Because I had “went over” my UNLIMITED data. Because of the offices being closed, the first few months of the pandemic only offered technical support in the form of answers in the self help section of their website. I had been calling and calling to figure out why I was being charged for going over my data.

    The overage fees became more and more expensive with each bull after that third bill. I woke up today and my internet is off due to nonpayment. As much as it kills me to pay such an expensive internet bill, I am willing to pay it if I could just speak to a customer service specialist and work something out. I have put claims through to dispute the overage charges but Suddenlink would not call me back or even acknowledge the fees that appeared on my account.!8!

    Don't believe those price for life claims they put out there. They manage to raise the price several times a year with "Fees" that appear from nowhere and then the actual price starts to change. They have lied to me on several occasions and they lie to my daughter when she calls about her account which was a guaranteed price for a year. It has almost doubled in 8 months! I wish we had an alternative, but since Altice bought them their support has been ruined. Before they were a good company with local support. Now they have a call center out of India, which tells you they are from Miami. (Ask them how they like the golden gate bridge. It's hilarious!) They have set up a "Competing Service" locally which is also owned by Altice to make it look like you have real options, but you don't. Stay away from them if you can.

    I really don't know where to start except they are the absolutely worse ISP I've ever dealt with.

    1. Called this morning to find out why some of my tv stations that were supposed to be in my package weren't working. Rather than bore all of you with the details, the technician while troubleshooting disconnected my service. The first appointment they have available is next Saturday.. Not happy.

    2. Inability to set up voicemail... I can't tell you how many of their incompetent technicians I spoke to, but it was supposed to be fixed within 4-8 hours... (from early this morning).. still not fixed.

    3. The technician that set up my tv and internet forgot to leave me a password so I have no wifi. I call and talk to another idiot who tells me where to find it (on the bottom of the modem) no.. nothing is there...so she tells me she's going to call me back in 10 minutes. That was about 5 hours ago... You cannot get them on the phone, so I scheduled a call back for tomorrow morning.

    I believe they don't care about their customers especially when they are the only vendor. Why should they try to improve when they have us over a barrel. I'm going to cancel my television service shortly and once I do some research, probably leave their internet as well. If you have a choice of providers, run run as fast as you can away from Suddenlink. Quite frankly, I don't understand why the FCC allows them to continue as a business.

    I am a customer who always paid on time. One day they cut off internet and most of TV. With no warning. Call service people were nice but required payment of $0.37 that I never owed to get service restored. Then they demanded one month payment in advance of $199.50. I met all their demands and Was told I still had to wait a week to get services back. Though I have prepaid, no service yet. They have a lot of new customers to service before they could get to a existing customer. I have documentation for most of this.

    I guess since they extorted an advance payment and have the money, I was pushed to the back of their line. SuddenLink has a monopoly and exploits it to the maximum. I plan to file complaints with AG and my city commission. I suspect SuddenLink will laugh at them too, but I feel better complaining even if it is a dead-end. With no internet and since they took my money, I have little to do but write letters. This arrogant company needs regulation. They are a perfect example of the saying "Absolute power corrupts absolutely".

    Finally I had to threatened to go to the BBB, and finally got a Technician out to view the issue, he was very rude and acted upset because he didn't see an issue, as I tried to explain to him what the issue was, all I received were multiple excuses, without any fixed results, he talked very badly about his employees, stating they had no clue what they were talking about, we pay for extremely fast internet service, yet get none, not satisfied at all, we have only had these issues since we moved back home, we did not have issues like this before we had to leave the first time, I have been lied to by this company stating they would call back or stating they would have a Supervisor call back, they did not call back as stated, I am at my wit's end with this company!!!!

    I called 'cause my internet was not working. They sent out a tech. He checked my modem. It was ok he said. Then he checked where it hooked up to the house. Said there was no signal coming from pole. Said it was probably outdated and needed replaced and that he would put work order in for someone to climb the pole. My internet is constantly in and out so it came back on so I thought someone fixed the piece on the pole. Then on my next bill I have a $60 charge. There should be no charge when it’s something on their end wrong. So I called. They proceeded to tell me in the tech note he said he replaced wire in house. WRONG HE DID NOT REPLACE CRAP!!! Besides he would have to go under my house to replace wiring and under my house is locked.

    Oh did I mention I have cameras on my house. I have been with them for over 13 yrs. Never called, complained nor call for a repair and this is how they treat their loyal customers. They kept sending me around in circles. Never did let me talk to a manager and said the charge is legit. Well the charge is not legit. Everything in my house is the same from 13 yrs ago. Guess what?

    We moved to west Texas 2 years ago. Suddenlink is the leading internet provider in the area, so of course we’ve opted for it. The service works well when it’s actually working, however, when it’s not working it’s a big problem. There’s a lot of glitching, outages, etc... My husband is on the phone with them at least 3 times in a month for a problem that has occurred. The last straw and the reason for this review is that in June 2020 a service man was scheduled to come to my house to change the modem. He never showed and my husband called Suddenlink to inquire about the service man.

    Our next bill came only to discover that they charged us a $60 fee. This is after we called about the service guy. The service guy never showed, and yet we were still charged. So there was another phone call to Suddenlink about this wrongful charge. Suddenlink gave him a very hard time with this. We’re searching for another internet provider. Suddenlink cannot be trusted.

    I have had Suddenlink many years and have had so many problems. I cannot believe the FCC can allow them to stay in business. Everyone in our area says the same, so we are forming a formal complaint in our area because this is the only way we can get a response and also the attorneys charge sudden-link a lot of money and fees. They claim they have installed new fiber optics in our neighborhood, which they have. But the cable that goes to everyone's house is from 1985 (when subdivision was built). So fiber optics to old cat cable. Plus I was here when new houses were built and the utilities were cut so many times that new home owners at the time had to repair the cable themselves due to crummy service from cable company. Just my street alone I have seen many breaks and poor repairs from ISP companies and neighbors.

    The county allows sudden-link to regulate our area as long as they continue to add infrastructure (which is BS infrastructure) and in the mean time we get charged twice as much as unregulated areas rt down the street. All new customers only pay 1/3 of cost of services than loyal customers. Cannot get anyone to answer phone and cannot get anyone to call back. Hopefully we can keep getting Attorneys to keep costing sudden-link money to the point the FCC steps in and enforces consumer writes plus policies and procedures that sudden link should follow. I know this does little for customers now, but this is the only way we can stop corruption in corporate America.

    One Day the consumer will have the leverage again. If they think the protest are bad now just wait till you see what's coming next. All I can say is sorry kids, your corrupt and greedy parents generation left you a mess and it will be up to you to either change things or become servants to the new world order.

When you call customer service, you have to go through 10 minutes of automated service before you can talk with anyone. Sometimes wait time has been up to 60 minutes. When we finally got to talk to someone on the 23rd, we were told maintenance would have it repaired in 60 minutes. That was at 6:30 in the morning! Called back that evening to no avail.

    I can not believe how shady this company is. My conversation with Jennifer at Altice Corporate Relations today confirmed it. 4/23 I called to reduce service to save money. After a very long call, getting transferred to sales, we decided on a basic package. The bill was never changed. Was told today that on 4/29 that order was cancelled. We did not call and request that. When I asked why, she just said, "I don't know". That was a good enough explanation for her I guess.

    On 5/14 we called to report how awful the internet has been even though a tech just replaced everything possible. We were promised a $100 credit due to lack of paying for a service we were not getting. I was told today that there was not a phone call seen on 5/14 and given an apology. I mentioned we have a screenshot of the 15 minute phone call. Later in our conversation, she mentioned the 5/14 inbound phone call. So it was there....but she said there were no notes regarding our internet service. When I asked why we called she said, "I don't know why you called." Again, good enough for her, no concern whatsoever.

    On 6/30 I called to inquire about these two issues and was told they would 'investigate our account'. Had not heard back, that is why I called today. Jennifer did not give any clarification as to what I should do next to resolve our complaints, just told me to pay my bill and call if I want to change services. Which I will do, but I may as well bang my head against a wall because they will continue to say one thing and do another, or better yet, just not note it at all!!! So basically, if you use Suddenlink, you'll continue to pay your bill to a company who does what they want and does not care what their customer requests and maybe give you the bare minimum service.

Finally the 5th tech figured out the problem. The 3rd tech decided to charge me $120 for her services (she replaced cables and connectors which belong to Suddenlink; not anything to do with our wiring or any of our equipment - it is all Suddenlink equipment).

    The supervisors are "going to call you back in 24-72 hours." I have yet over these now 27 days to receive any call back from a supervisor. One was supposed to call me back in 2 hours yesterday - no - did not happen. This company has the poorest response and, their recording states to go to their site - you can resolve things there - nope nothing their helps and their chat is outsourced also so good luck with that. The recording states "Thank you for being a valued Suddenlink customer." If this is how they show the customer is valued, I would not like to see how they treat you if you are a devalued customer.

We have been at our current location for 3 years but have had their service at many other locations for over 10 years. It has always been horrible customer service, but we never experienced the issue on service until now.

    I have called in multiple times and asked to speak with a supervisor in regards to why this keeps happening and what they are going to do to remedy the situation. Every single time I am told one will call me back and still, no call. If they did not have a monopoly on the service where I live I would leave in a heartbeat.

Time consuming and I am tired of this.

    Starting in March 2020 my internet was constantly in and out, I would call and report it but then it would come back on. By the end of May in the evenings (and off and on during the day) I hardly had internet service and most of the time I would be on the ph holding for a rep. The first week of June they sent a tech out because they said on their end my modem was working (I knew that because eventually it would come back on). The tech came and said the same thing. Everything was working but before he got gone it had quit so he went over everything inside and outside my house and finally told me it was a problem in the main lines not at my home and he did not work on those that required a different crew, he said he sounded like water was maybe getting in the lines because they are so old and we had lots of rain all winter and spring...

    Long story short I just got July's bill and they are charging me $67.00 service charge when it was a issue with them and not me. I have made numerous calls to Suddenlink and they act like they don't understand English, all I do is repeat myself and after being on the phone mostly being put on hold they tell me I have to pay it because it is my fault they were out here.. The tech they sent out stood here in my house and told Suddenlink support this was an issue with the lines not at my house and he also said I would not be charged for a service call because this was a Suddenlink problem.

    When I started looking to see where I needed to complain today I am blown away at the number of complaints and that they are doing other people the same way. I have never once been late on my bill and have had this service since the 80s and yes the company has sold over and over but Altice/ Suddenlink is ripping people off by being dishonest and the customer service is horrible.

    I have never made a complaint on a company but am so aggravated with Suddenlink I felt compelled to do so. Contacted Suddenlink to inquire about other data packages. Customer service agent was supposed to call back at a specific day/time but didn’t. Tried calling back. Talked to Riley who said he would follow up with supervisor and call back and didn’t. Talked with Marina on 6/17 who said I would receive a call back within 3-5 days and never did. If you call you will be on hold for 30 mins or longer and then they give you the runaround and won’t let you speak to a supervisor. I plan on giving reviews on every website I can find and every social media site so others will know what type of company they are dealing with before they sign up. I will be ending my service with them as soon my contract is up. I gave a rating of 1 star because there wasn’t anything lower and had to give some type of rating.

    Suddenlink is the only option available in my neighborhood (agreement with the town board). The internet shuts off randomly about 3-5 times per hour. It seems to be worse during the day. I have called customer service which is like navigating a maze trying to get an actual person. All they will do is reset the modem which works for about 20 minutes.

    So I am writing this presently while I wait on hold for 20+ minutes, to speak to an associate across the world, for the third time since connecting services through this company. This company has tried to spring unapproved, undesired charges onto my account on multiple separate occasions. This most recent being a surprise charge for an Altice Amplify, of which, I have never approved, or desired to have added to my account. Not only that, they have tried to spring Modem charges on my first bill, of which, I have never utilized a Suddenlink assigned Modem. When the initial email on June 24th came through, "confirming shipment of the Altice Amplify product," I immediately called, waited on hold, and let the associate know I did not order or approve any services changes, and the shipment needed to be canceled.

    The associate on the phone assured me nothing would be charged to my account and confirmed that I indeed did not confirm or approve any service change or device order. The following morning on June 25, I received an email from Suddenlink, "confirming my recent Suddenlink service changed." To say I was extremely aggravated and annoyed upon reading would be an understatement, as I had JUST waited on hold the day before to inform them the error in the first email. Now, I once again had to wait on hold to let an associate know this was an error.

    Finally, that following day, I received an email, once again, "confirming my recent Suddenlink service changes." This email showed the charge as being removed from my account. Which now leads me to today, I received my bill and guess what unapproved charges were on the account? Yup, you guessed it.. Suddenlink, please understand, when I tell an associate, the only services I plan to pay for are the ones I utilize and approve. The associate said, "he would make a note on my account," accordingly, but obviously this did not happen. I'm sick of waiting on hold to call in cancellations to unapproved charges that I never even entertained as being an option. Also, I pay for 1GB Internet Speeds, and have consistently seen ~170mbps speeds since moving in. Way to go!

    I have been being overcharged by Suddenlink for months! I called and upgraded to unlimited and locked in for price for life at $65. Every month it was overcharged. I called to get it fixed each time. Each time they said they would fix it and refund the extra money I paid Extra. Well surprise they did it again this month. They told me on their end they never finished the unlimited data request and failed to upgrade me. So apparently the bills are right because they failed to finish the request on their end. That is wrong. They should go back the months they promised and refund my money and correct that request.

    I have been a loyal customer for years. Yes I am. I sure why after this. I may just cancel service because of how awful it was to be told they didn’t do their job so none of this lands on them! For them to tell me they didn’t to their job and that it fell on me I became so angry. No suddenlink didn’t do their job and they are stealing money from me instead of sizing the problem.

    My wife and I have a combined 50 years of AT&T experience in central office, outside plant infrastructure, installation/repair centers, business/residential marketing, customer service, billing etc. As a result, we are not uninformed when it comes to the delivery of telecommunication and data services and how to interact with providers.

    We first contracted Suddenlink in 2017 when we moved to Flagstaff, AZ. We purchased an internet, TV and landline package and kept it for two years as we lived in a rental and built a new retirement home. During those two years, we experienced multiple daily outages of our internet and landline phone (same bandwidth) and weekly outages of our television content (different bandwidth). We made repair calls to Suddenlink on a weekly and bi-weekly basis, but nothing changed as a result of numerous visits by their technicians - a combination of full time (better) and contracted employees (worse).

    After moving into our newly constructed home that had been pre-wired with fiber, Cat5 Ethernet and RG6 cable, we decided to give Suddenlink another chance as our new community and residence had a newer infrastructure and, hopefully, better service. We signed up for the best that Suddenlink had to offer and purchased their 100mbps (1 gig) internet with full Altice features in hopes that we'd no longer have the problems we'd experienced over the past two years.

    Shortly after our upgrade, we found that we weren't getting anywhere near the (up to) 1 gig we were paying for, rather we had a consistent rate of 250mbps down and 30 up. Although respectable, it was not as advertised. Soon after, we cancelled the 'Altice' portion of the service as it was far too slow and cumbersome (due to the latency of streaming) and defaulted to our previous Suddenlink provided TiVo box.

    Now, after 4 months in our new location, the Suddenlink service is far worse than in our rental. Internet and landline fail on an average of 20 to 30 times during a 24 hour period for 10 to 30 minutes at a time. This is not an exaggeration. Repeated calls to Suddenlink's off-shore repair center are as tiring and ineffective as before. We are now considering dumping Suddenlink in total and going back to a much slower, but reliable, telco-based offering or, regrettably, satellite. On numerous occasions, we've requested that a Suddenlink field supervisor meet with us in an attempt to escalate these issues, but are always met with internal roadblocks.

    We realize that all of the above amounts to nothing more than a first-world problem, but can't a company like Suddenlink be better than this? It's truly stunning that in our age of ever increasing innovation by telecommunication companies, that Suddenlink can be so caviler about its customer base. One thing I do know for sure, is that if the PUC in every state had oversight of cable and satellite companies, along with public utilities, this type of service would be a thing of the past.

    We signed up for paperless billing due to the new $1/month charge. Seemed like it would be convenient too so win/win. We had our bank automatically sending payments to Suddenlink and have had no issues with it for at least a year. A few months later, our service was cut off. That's when I realized that we had not received a single paperless bill. Our service fee had been increased but we didn't catch it because they never sent us the bill that informed us. We had been getting charged late fees for several months without our knowledge.

    We are now down $60 of fees (5 late fees and 1 "restore service" fee) that should never have happened if they did what they promised to do. We've also no doubt taken a hit on our credit too. Customer service totally stonewalled every attempt to get this money refunded and have our credit fixed. This included lies used by EVERY agent as a way of getting me off the phone. I documented every step in the long and tedious process. I have cancelled my service and refuse to deal with such a dishonest company. I recommend avoiding the company but especially paperless billing that provides zero accountability on your behalf and complete deniability on theirs.

    I help out my mother with her account. She has multiple rooms with TVs so I helped change from the Tivo to Suddenlinks new Altice One multi room. What a mistake had everything changed over only equipment. The equipment was installed, first problem couldn't record. Called. Was told need to pay more for recording ability (what a joke). After paying extra for what she had before after first month started loosing channels. Was told we had to pay even more for channels we had before? This happened multiple times. Every customer support I spoke with fixed the problem with additional charges. Ask for a supervisor to check into account and call me back over 4 months so many requests for supervisor help and nothing.

    You can call customer service all you want. You will be lied to by every person you talk to. I am about ready to go to the local office and throw all the equipment through the window. Not even they were of any help saying they couldn't change my plan and put in a ticket for someone to call me back nothing. Customer service I spoke with 2 weeks later said the request was placed only on my mother's account and it could only be seen if you opened the account and searched for it. I also like how when the packages were changed and premium channels taken out of the package my mother has been under for over 10 years started raising the prices with no change in service. Guess this is how the cable company rips their customers off. I would strongly avoid this company and do anything you can to not use Suddenlink ever if you have to throwing out your tv and computer.

I only used their service from 6/23-6/30 and they expect me to pay for service through 7/22. I called customer service again about the bill I received and was told “I don’t know what to tell you. It’s printed on every bill. We don’t prorate our bills”. I know this is incorrect because when I upgraded my internet services, they made sure to prorate my bill at that time.

I had good speeds whenever I ran a test (around 500-600 mbps so even then only half of what I was paying for). Now however, I get around 80 mbps every day when I check. So expect to get less than 1/10 of the speeds you pay for. I use the router/modem combo they provided for my internet package, and reset it regularly. I called suddenlink to try and resolve this issue (which is a horrible experience by the way, their phone menus do everything they can to keep you away from a real person). When I called they said I had to pay a 50 dollar fee for a technician to come and check THEIR OWN EQUIPMENT. Ridiculous. NEVER go with suddenlink if you have any other option.

I received another bill in May with the same error. Again I paid it but called to get a correction made. I talked to speak to representatives on May 21 who said that they would fix the issue. I received another bill in June with still no correction. At this point SuddenLink owes me money. I called twice trying to get this straightened out. Each time on the phone for over 45 minutes. I had to final disconnect one time and the 2nd time I was disconnected. Issue still not resolved.

    I finally had to send my daughter to the local office for a face to face visit to fix it. Again, we are told that a correction will be made but it will take a couple of days. Front line staff can recognize the issue but not empowered to make the correction. The case has to go to a supervisor. I checked the account today (3 days later) and my account is still not fixed. I guess my daughter will be going back up there on Monday. This is ridiculous. No one should have to go through all of this for an error in billing. I even went online to see if I could submit an e-mail to request a correction. I did not find that I can do that. Instead it is a computer communicating that doesn't understand the issue.

    Suddenlink has been having problems with my locality in the last months. On Sunday, June 28, the internet signal in my house and others in the community down completely. I quickly called Suddenlink customer service, and they said they were going to send a technician to solve the problem. Said Technician arrived on Tuesday, June 30, to tell me that the problem we had with the internet was not in our property and that he was going to raise a ticket so that another type of technician would come to solve the problem.

    The situation is that one day after the visit of this technician, a charge of 60 dollars appeared in my account for his visit. I call customer service to let them know that there was an error as the technician only spent about 10 minutes on my property and did not fix any breakages. The customer service people told me that they could not do anything, specifically the Supervisor Ruben **, because the technician had specified that he had made repairs on my property, and they could not remove the charge. The response of this Suddenlink supervisor made me feel disappointed since they did not give any value to my testimony.
