experiences with centurylink[ISP]

[===PCtyc00n===]

I've had an awful time with centurylink and I wondered if any of you guys had too?

I'm enjoying there internet very much. Got a 10mbps line to my house even though my driveway is 7/10'ths of a mile long.

What issues are you having?

utube but its so goddamn slow on centurylink so i called to find out y they told me they havent finalized a deal to have unlimited content from google websites- hence the slowness.  

 

i pay for 15mbps/1mbps

I get 100kbps/0.05kbps

I have to live with this for 50 bucks a month and im in a contract for another year

and to boot when i ask them to fix the problem they say my area does not have enough customers to justify the resources to replace wiring

 

and just to have them come to my house it costs 300 bucks

Wait until your next modem upgrade which they do. Ask the tech to confirm that, I did, he said it was bullshit. Told me to call and tell them so, and that all he had to do was flip a switch or move a cable or something, had high speed in like, an hour.

I pay $80 for only 6Mbs with Centurylink and I am not happy about that. (only isp in my area)

Guy on the phone tried telling me that he runs 3 xboxs off of that with no lag and I promptly told him that he is full of crap lol

When I had Comcast, it was $89 for 60Mbs and was paying for 50Mbps

I have Comcast now, and am looking to move to centurylink once their speeds improve (they just announced fiber to the home in my area).  Assuming with Gig internet slowness issues won't really exist... how has their customer service and billing been?  Comcast is the worst and I am really looking forward to not giving them any more money... but I have heard mixed things about CenturyLink, most complaints appear to be around speed though and not how the company is run.
