Pay extra mony for fast internet download and upload speeds , constantly calling them because I want to get 1/3 of the speed I pay for most of the time, because they tell me oh, it’s my router. But miraculously after I called them all of us and I’m able to get to speed with the same router which, by the way is a high-quality fast, speed router.

I have been told by one of their tech that Verizon does not like to maintain their infrastructure. What that means, is that if you are in an older neighborhood, Verizon's speed is spotty at best. If it rains, there are problems with the service as well. When I asked the tech what I can do; their response was to go cable. He told me that Verizon does not want to install new lines to replace the old ones.

Comcast has slow start up and the service techs don't show up when scheduled wasting your day. They also go up on prices without notification knowing you're on a limited budget.
