Century link has absolutely the worst customer service. I had century link DSL for 8 years. Kept waiting for service other than DSL. Didn’t happen. I changed my WiFi to a different provider. Cable. It’s only $1.12 a month more than century link DSL. And WAY more speed. And here’s the customer service complaint. It took 4 days to finally get my account cancelled. It has to be done online because they don’t have any stores that can do it. I was given so many excuses and “I can’t do that but I’ll transfer you to an agent that can do it”. I was given so many phone numbers to call and all but one was actually the one I needed in the first place. After 4 days of frustrating attempts to get my account cancelled that I actually thought century link was a scam. I finally got my account cancelled and paid my remaining balance. Done deal? Nope. Now they want the next months payment on my account that is clearly closed. So, don’t even consider signing up for century link service. I promise you’ll regret it at some point.

Recommendation: Avoid. No customer service.

You closed it and paid the balance, so this next bill is their error. Call CenturyLink billing, ask for a supervisor immediately, and give them the cancellation date and confirmation number. State plainly that you will not pay for a month after the account was closed. Get them to send written confirmation of the closed account and a zeroed balance. If they refuse, dispute the charge with your card issuer as billing after cancellation and file a complaint with your state utility commission, since they regulate CenturyLink. Save every call date, name, and confirmation number. You already won the cancellation fight, so do not let them reopen it.
