I spoke with a very professional person and although I was not happy with the wait to have a technician come to my home and resolve my cable TV issue, I was going to give him a very positive review. Unfortunately, when Spectrum called, the call was identified as SPAM RISK! How many people answer a call identified like that? I sure dont! Not fair to the employee who deserved a positive review! Not so positive that I have to wait 5 days to have a technician resolve the issue! 5 stars for Spectrum Customer Service! 0 stars for Spectrum Timely Repair Service!

As Im waiting for 30 min.... For service, only one service desk and a half was having personal conversations with other customers waiting in line the size of Texas. They need way more help. For crying out loud, they have 4 other desks available. However, Rick was the saving grace for me, extremely professional answered all my questions , and then some

Their staff is sooo Slow!! 25 minute wait while there was a personal conversation going on between one customer and staff person!!Also, staff should work on their personality!! How hard is it to be nice???

I have been with Spectrum Wireless for a little over a year now and the service they provide is far more superior than other carriers. The unlimited plan is so affordable and being able to get a new phone every year and paying monthly for is also an excellent service. I doubt I will go back to a conventional cell phone carrier anytime soon, as having Internet gives amazing benefits of having both services.

Person who helped my husband and I talked very quietly, was very hard to hear him. Kept having him repeat himself. Seemed he got fet up and basically dropped what we needed on the counter. We get home to hook it up and it doesnt work. He was supposed to tell us we needed to call a number and the steps to follow. If he did we didnt hear it. Not a great experience

We have been with Spectrum for a year and for the price is is great. My husband and I went into the store to look into upgrading our devices. Will the sale rep approached us and was very helpful. He answered all our questions and was very knowledgeable. Most off he was very patient as we made decisions that best fit our needs. I would trust Will to provide you will the best and most honest feedback. Thank you Will again for all your help.

Spectrum in general is a hack. I am only waiting for TDS to get to my neighborhood and im gone. It cant possibly be worse than spectrum Costumer service is HORRIBLE, all they do is blame the customer if you call and ask why your internet is not running the speed you pay for. Honestly, anything is better.

I did not have a appointment, but signed into the computer and I didnt have to wait for long. They had 3-4 agents working. I had a fired up younger guy, so I felt good about my service transfer, after trying it over the phone, which, I thought was the wrong info that I received, but it was actually mostly correct and everything that the counter guy had told me was completely wrong. So, I had to spend 2 hours on the phone with a customer service trainee, the next day, to get it settled.

Amazing layout, easy to browse and they leave you alone if you want to look alone. But theyre there for you when you need them as well. I love spectrum. The difference between our old Verizon bill and Spectrum is about $150 bucks a month for just TWO phones. Love spectrum and highly HIGHLY recommend.

I went in to return an internet modem and router, only to be put 5th in line to wait for someone to take my return. Its pretty telling that out of the 5 people waiting, 3 of us were returning equipment. Not to mention everyone else discussing how terrible Spectrum customer service is. There were only 3 employees working in this store that had probably 7+ desks and 1 of the 3 employees was only checking people in. I left after 15 minutes and stopped at a different location and was able to complete my return there in under 5 minutes.

Poor customer service; was treated as a number. Raised my monthly rate for internet to $69.99 and never offered me any other lower price options. Too bad was basically the message that i got from talking to them. Later i found out there were options for lower-income customers. Highly unrecommended.

We have constantly had issues with billing and each representative weve talked to has been no help. We came in ready to cancel our service because no one was helping us or understanding what was wrong. Came in and got with an amazing Representative named Derek. He listened to us and was outraged that we were dealing with this. He was the only representative that actually helped us out with our service issues weve had in the past 3 months. He is a savior in our eyes. Cant do a 5 star because of all the issues weve had with spectrum. But Im hoping if we have more, Derek gets to help us again.

Review №23

Theyre the worst company for customer experience. Their app doesnt do anything a tech company should be able to do. Youre forced to call in to make any meaningful changes to your service. The local store takes in the equipment and never updates the billing. Every part of this company is kind of lost in the most basic elements of doing their job.

Service was very quick and profesional. My father came in with a bit of an attitude, however the service rep, Oscar, remains polite, profesional, and helpful throughout the visit. Was able to help and go above and beyond in helping my father with the issue we came in with. Very satisfied with the service provided by the employees.

CSR was rude/unfriendly and didnt to enjoy her job at all. I tried to crack a joke and she gave me the death stare for almost 30 seconds which made my anxiety escalate. Didnt know what phones she even had in stock, had a hard time finding my account. I was purposely vague on what kind of phone I wanted because I wanted her to sell me on a phone. Instead she hehawed around and wasted my time. I just walked out. Ive only had one good CSR in the two years with this company, the rest seen miserable and illinformed or poorly trained. Debating on whether or not to switch services yet again...

Spectrum charges outrageous prices compared to other providers. For internet and cable you can expect to pay somewhere around the price of $200 or more. Thats for the first year with their slowest internet. after that promotion year thats when they really get you they Jack that price up so good for you, and if youre not really wanting to pay that much for service they will be glad to help you find nothing cheaper. when they jack up the bill after the promotion they will not tell you about it it will be a surprise for you. And Im referring to the most basic internet and the most basic cable to watch a little news. They basically want around $100 just for Internet and over $100 for basic cable, be careful with this company they are happy just to take your money and they will not do anything to try to make you happy in fact it really seems as if they dont even care if they have your business. Ive been with AT&t for 3 years so far I have TV I have internet with movie channels on the TV I paid $50 a month for all of that I paid $50 a month when I started and Im still paying $50 a month three years later I have nice internet I can stream all I want with no problems I have TV with plenty of channels including MTV VH1 Showtime the movie channel and more.anytime I ever called with a question they put a smile on my face spectrum seem to be the complete opposite I tried to ask them to find me something cheaper because all I wanted was a little internet wasnt even interested in TV and its still was twice as much then Im paying for TV and internet when I was with spectrum I was paying 100 bucks a month just for the slowest internet they had they would never help me talking to spectrum on the phone I had to call several times until I just canceled and every time they call and ask for me to join them again I asked them why would I want to pay $100 for internet after your promotion when I pay $50 for internet and TV for the last 3 years when are yall going to wake up is what I tell them. The best part about this I wasnt even aware of when I called AT&t and asked for a price for internet also on a second location it would only cost me $30 more. This is all for their slowest internet because this is all I need I never have buffering issues

Got in right away with an appointment and wanted to upgrade my phone. All in all, the service was good and they had the phone I wanted in stock, but their system wouldnt allow me to get it because of a glitch. It takes 3 to 5 business days to resolve it. I left without the new phone. It wasnt the actual places fault, but the company and technology. Ill have to go back.

Review №42

This is more of a rating for the company as a whole opposed to this specific location and is focused on internet. A number of years ago I was grand fathered into Spectrum having been a Time Warner customer. Ive been paying $62/month for less than a quarter of the speed compared to what the Spectrum Standard Plan offered at $69/month. I didnt learn of this until I compared my service to others service followed by some research. I since then have upgraded to the Spectrum Standard Plan for less than a few dollars but experienced a multiple fold up-tick in speed. If I hadnt looked into this, Spectrum wouldve kept upping the cost of my prior plan which was at $62/month and less than a quarter of the speed versus their Spectrum Standard Plan which was at $69/month.

I Honestly cant believe this company does all these great deals to get you in with them but will not reward long time customers. We have had our internet through Spectrum for 8 years, our internet price just went up $35 per month and they will not do anything to lower it. We constantly get these promotions in the mail and they will not honor the promotion because we are existing customers. My business and my personal internet will no longer be with you spectrum.

I give them one star because 0 isn’t an options this entire experience has been a never ending nightmare.First off I went to set up new service early July. Both in store on phone told me and my land lord that we had to do a transfer of responsibility when in fact all they had to do is transfer his service to a new address and start a new one for myself. Them doing the transfer of liability created a major issue with our mobile numbers. They were supposed to have transfer his number stated they transferred his number Removed his info from the account added my card and payment NEVER TRANSFERRED HIS NUMBER OR BANKING INFO! Which I didn’t find out until after added 2 phones to the account. those phones were then charged to his debit card. Spectrum refused to refund him and charge my card. I then just paid it to him in cash and manually changed all the billing info myself using the app. Less than a few day later I get a $233 my service should be less than $150 phones and insurance Included. I call about it they say it’s because I have an active phone already on my account that’s the phone they were supposed to have transferred. Not this is August. We are calling to get my landlords phone my account with out him losing his number he’s had for years. They’re saying it’s NO POSSIBLE WAY TO TRANSFER PHONES FROM ONE ACCOUNT TO ANOTHER. Obviously a lie. I worked for sprint for 7 years as a district manager. Ik that’s bs. I offered in store and on the phone to cancel the new lines under the satisfaction policy until the issue was resolved they told me that it wouldn’t be necessary because my phones weren’t active and that they once the active phone is transferred all the charges associated would be removed and I’d only be charged from the date of activation and forward. I still feeling uneasy ask if I could some still return they told me to take to the store where Katie the store manager who introduced her self a district manager or area manager at the Rome assured me the information about the refund was correct and that if I ran into any issue with it being charged she’d handle it personally. after spending 5 hours a day on the phone with these morons for 6 straight weeks. I still struggled with getting this issue resolved. I went to Katie before the due date of the bill to credit the account. According to customer care she did so but late. My phones were activated sometime between September 14-17 I have August sept and an upcoming October bill due immediately she credits me less than $200 for a $233 mis charge and $145 full month of service because the credit was applied days after she said she would do it as for less than it should have The credit was ineffective. My phone was shut off 4 days after activation im still being charged a full month of service for 4 days. Mind you they too 6 weeks to even acknowledge my problem after telling me to hold off on activating the phones. I go to the store 3 times no Katie everytime I got still til this day she’s always “on her way” I must “sit tight” I email Katie regarding the issue after communicating to expect an email. No response for days I emailed her everyday to follow up yet no response. For 4 days. I finally get a hold of her and she tells me this about how she did what she was supposed to she’s sorry she’ll fix this thing and that thing. Nothing fixed I’m still going days with out service. At this point I canceled my other cell phone with sprint because I was active with spectrum not expecting it to last for 4 days only. Now I’m phone less my clients can’t call me my employees can’t call me my wife can’t call me kids my sick mother etc... I’m missing major money being in this situation yes not only is this costing me money but it’s preventing me a small business owner struggling in the middle of a pandemic to make ends from being able to provide revenues for my staff and family. She says she’ll put in a ticket. I call customer care that clearly states that there is no record of this ticket she submitted. I’m waiting days on days for a nonexistent ticket.

Worst customer service I have ever experienced in my entire life. This company really doesnt care about its customers at all. After years of being ripped off and treated like garbage I just couldnt take it anymore. I switched over to Orby TV and I couldnt be happier. I get more channels with Orby than are offered with spectrums basic package and I only pay $40 per month. No exorbitant multiple fees. No hidden costs. I also got a DVR and I dont have to pay extra for it. Just $40 even each month.

I always like coming to this store, considering the staff deals with a lot of emotions from the customers they are always friendly. My big complaint, Spectrum has too many layers to get a solution and you need to do too much legwork, phone, visit, different business units, to get a solution. I believe this store should be set up to take care of ANY customer service, or problem.

From the time I started my online chat with Spectrum yesterday until I decided I couldnt wait anymore, it was 6 hours! Today, I went to the Spectrum store in Appleton to return my modem, explain my problem and the man who helped me was not pushy and was extremely helpful. He set up to have a tech come out. My appointment was made for the same day. Travis the tech was on time, very friendly and was able to solve my internet connection problem. I know that Spectrum employees are busy right now, but I cant say enough about their professionalism and support. Thank you!

Called 10/31 to disconnect cable. No issue. Come November 13 and I receive my bill, and it hasn’t changed. Called again, and they say that they updated it and it will be changed in 48 hours.

So far, so terrible! We wanted to switch to Spectrum for a faster internet service. I ordered online and picked up at the store and at the store it was extremely understaffed with many people waiting. Once I got to my turn things went smooth.and fast from that point. I went home to hook it up and was unable to do so as the coax cable did not have a signal. I called and spoke to the tech team and they trouble shot it with me and determined to send a tech out. We made an appointment for the next day from 10-11 am. I received the confirmation call at 6:40 pm the evening prior and was all set. It stated someone would call an hour prior to the appointment. This call never happened and and so at 10:30 am I called and asked where the tech was, they informed me that there was never an appointment scheduled??? Seriously? then why did I get a call at 6:40 PM confirming one? No one could answer that and just said it was never scheduled. After much time on the phone and asking for supervisors I finally got to someone willing to make something happen and he was able to get someone right away. But it was ridiculous that I had to fight so hard to find someone for their mistake.

Its a shame that all other cell phone carriers and that of the like are giving deferred payments while we r all in hardships except spectrum. They dont understand that getting on unemployment is easier said then done. Ive been trying so I have some sort of income but have yet to hear anything do to the increase in the number of people filing. I find it very heartless that spectrum is being so money hungry at this time of unfortunate crisis that is happening. I guess they would rather u pay ur cable or phone bill then put food on the table. Its a real shame and honestly considering taking my business elsewhere even tho the service itself is good. Its the president, CEO, and other employees that are giving a negative name for themselves.

Upgrade internet, get sent to store for new router. Get sent back as my names not on the account annoying but I get it. Come all the way back with named person to hear “ oh we don’t have anymore of that router. You will have to order one or drive to Appleton. Fool me once shame on me, so I ask if Appleton store has the right one. Green Bay store can’t or just wont call and find out, and if you call yourself you get the same line you got when you first called and they can’t tell you what’s in stock at any store and they have no direct number or transfer to any other store. If you have other options, look into them. In the 5 + years I’ve never spent any shorter amount on time than 20 min on hold, ave around 40-60 min. Wait a week+ for a router to be mailed, all while paying for what your unable to use.
