I've been with Spectrum a little over a month and service had been terrible! Literally every week there's an outage!! Customer service sucks terribly! I don't recommend Spectrum to anyone because it is straight garbage!

Constantly inundated with calls to upgrade. Bait and switch tactics attempted by them.We don't want a contract. Speed is slowed down and we have to wait a good while for a page to load. We will be switching soon.
