Astound Customer Reviews:
Our methodology
We evaluate broadband providers in four categories: affordability, performance, value and customer satisfaction. Each category contains multiple sub-factors, all of which are weighted differently to impact the provider’s overall score.
For each sub-factor, we score all providers on a continuous scale of one to five, relative to the industry as a whole. Because the average download speed in America is currently 180 Mbps, for example, we assigned all plans with download speeds between 100 and 299 Mbps a score between three and four. Xfinity’s 200 Mbps plan received a 3.50 score for download speed, while Spectrum’s 500 Mbps plan got a 3.71.
We only considered standardized data points in our scoring system. More abstract data like consistency of service and brand reputation is still part of our analysis, but we opted to let our writers address them in the context of each review.
Dallas internet customer reviews
Great service and reasonable price.
5/5
As with most satellites, the internet is down in bad weather. However, it is very slow and unreliable on good weather days as well. Customer service online had me waiting on the queue for about 15 minutes. When they got to me they gave me one minute to respond and closed the request. My issue was never resolved.
1/5
5G internet box from Verizon. Easy to use, Portable, I move it from the house to the RV.
