Theyā€™re the only choice and charge through the nose for terrible service. They donā€™t care because they have a complete monopoly and do whatever they want. Worst company ever

Ismail was my Service Technician today. He was very pleasant, professional and knowledgeable. If every employee at Spectrum possessed his level of customer service, all Spectrum Reviews would be 5 Stars. Thank you Ismail.

Terrible service, terrible pricing and terrible speed, very frustrating having to buy more equipment because their equipment can't provide service throughout an average size house.
