spectrum billing
I have been a spectrum since they took over my service from Time Warner Cable. Internet service dependability has been inconsistent from very poor to pretty good but not to their lofty advertised claims. My comments are on their billing. I have put off commenting for quite some time. After paying the same amount on my monthly bill for months I receive a monthly bill declaring I saved $50.00 on my service that month. The only problem is the billing amount was exactly the same as prior months. A few months later my bill declared I saved $40.00 for service that month. The phantom "savings" decreased $10.00. The billing amount increased $10.00. A few months later "savings" were reduced another $10.00 and the billing amount increased $10.00. My most recent bill declares a $20.00 savings with another $10.00 service increase. I personally find it an insult to my intelligence if Spectrum believes people think a decreasing phantom "savings" and corresponding service cost increase are anything more than a deceptive way to increase your monthly service cost. To rub a little salt in the wound customers are paying for Spectrum to create deceptive advertising, display it in media, and print it on customer's bills every month. If Spectrum is going to raise costs periodically (it seems all services do) just please be honest about it.
Recommendation: Watch for future deceptions.
Phone/ TV/ Internet
Signed up for all three because I was told $30 for each service. Got the phone free for first year too. Service for all three is spotty, especially the phone. I have home Internet and my phone still can't download it upload half the time. I'm really mad because after they told me phone would be $30 they charged me $40. I called and was told basically that they raised rates, too bad. And what about all of the outages? TV is out right now AGAIN. AND THEY WANT ME TO WAIT AND TALK TO SOMEONE IN ANOTHER DEPT?
Desired outcome: Give me what you promised and if you can't give me good service then deduct from my payment!

Service Degrading
Have had spectrum internet for a few years and the service is going downhill rapidly. I live just outsided Charlotte, NC. Friends and coworkers are experiencing the same issues. Internet constantly goes out. The mighty spectrum CS team provides mixed results, In the past 24hrs there have been issues in my area, and they are working on it, to there haven't been any issues at all it must be at your home. I've spoken with 4 cs reps and never have gotten the same response, not even close, which speaks volumes.
But you do get to sit on hold for 27 mins listening to how great they are, and you'll never miss a game or event when that's exactly what just happened "again".
They have no idea what they are doing, and say whatever is convenient to them, they absolutely do not care about their customers but encourage you to continue to pay for service they are not providing.
Again, initially no issues, then some, then more and more. Attempting to get progress through a cs group that has no idea what they are doing is infuriating as the "issue" changes every few hours depending on who answers the phone.
If you have options other than spectrum explore them. Spectrum turns into garbage and is unreliable.
I can't stand spectrum now!
Recommendation: Spectrum is untrustworthy
I had the most outstanding repair service.
On 9/2/26 Technician, Caleb arrived promptly on time as promised. This employee should be acknowledged for his incredible work ethic and dedication to his job. Caleb managed to repair and restore telephone and internet service. More importantly, he, also repaired an ongoing issue that no other technician has been able to accomplish for two plus years.

They have unusual terms and conditions compared to other providers. Their advertised service speeds are not what you get. Their customer service on the phone is poor. Their stores are understaffed and have a weird intake system. They do not pro-rate service upon disconnect. When calling them for problems you are passed around to several different...

I have been with "Spectrum" through its various sales and name changes since the 90s. I really have loved Spectrum but in 2026, there have been outages about ever 7 to 10 days. Sometimes they're planned outages due to upgrades (or is it downgrades). Other times like this morning, it apparently was just a plain old outage. I rely on Spectrum for internet for...

We were headed out on June 8th for a camping trip when our Spectrum TV service went out. When it came back, I had everything BUT audio.

Called and got an online tech who, after various attempts to...

I did not schedule an appointment to return my equipment, so I was a walk-in and had to register. I was number 13, and we waited to return the equipment as I have closed my business. There were seven people working the customer service stations out of a possible 8. We waited over half an hour to return the equipment. There was no line just to return...
Read full reviewOutstanding and honest
Another internet company tricked me into subscribing to their service for a lower price (T-Mobile). I called Spectrum, and within 1.5 hours, a professional arrived at my home and got my internet working again. Finally, today they got my cell phones back and are working on their system. I've had Spectrum for about 9 years and have had excellent service.
Recommendation: Use them. They are honest and would never deceive you.
Terminating internet service is intentionally cruel
After 3 years of satisfactory internet service with Spectrum, today I signed up for Frontier fiber that offered cheaper and faster service. With no info on how to stop internet service, I walked into a spectrum store with the cable modem to return and stop service. After 30 min of waiting (while those not terminating services were helped ahead of me), I wa...

We had Specturm the last 18 months in Tampa. The ONLY reason (and I repeat the ONLY reason) we signed up with Specturm and dropped Verizon was because Specturm actually answered the phone and EVERY TIME we called Verizon (day, night, weekend, weekay, holiday, whenever) it was ALWAYS an hour plus wait, WITHOUT fail! So here I am in Beverly Hills, Florida...

Spectrum Internet and mobile Service
I just canceled by services with Spectrum due to their unfair business practices and lousy customer service. Starting with mobile, we had two lines with them. They were expressive compared to competitors and on top on it, Spectrum would market a cheaper rate to me but when I called them to discuss it, since I was a current customer I could not get the lower rate...WTH! Best part is when the wife died, they still marketed to her and would not take the billing out of her name. I mean who does that!?!
Internet services - horrible, just a terrible service. Drops all the time, Modems are junk, cheap units. They don't so contracts, they do subscriptions...so if you cancel in the middle of the billing cycle, they will bill you for the entire month and WILL NOT change that unfair business practice. basically they provide crap for service, steal from their customers and always try to sell you when you call they up to complain or quit their service(s).
AVOID this company, you will regret dealing with these clowns! They are a minor league business. Total unsympathetic to their paying customers! I went to Visible and cut my rate in half and I am on the Verizon network. I cut internet and went to Centurylink and cut my rate by a third and its better service. Spectrum is a failed business!
Recommendation: AVOID Spectrum at all costs, save yourself the headache!
Delivery issues
I contacted sprectum on March 7, 2024 and started a new service. Asked for installation kit to be delivered on March 15, 2024. Email within one hour said it would be delivered March 8, 2024. Called back with much difficulty and person in sales said they would change delivery date. They did not. Fedex emailed that kit was being delivered on March 8, 2924 to an EMPTY house!
So I have written to spectrum and told them I am not responsible if it is missing!
Recommendation: Good luck!

Spectrum refuses to close my account, keeps billing me & adding late fees. Their equipment was sent back to them 10.14.25 via Fed Ex.
I am legally DEAF. So I did their live chat October 5, 2025. Spectrum told me the account would be closed October 26 due to non-payment. No, I've already signed up for T-Mobile, that is $10/month vs. $100/month with Spectrum. They refused to cancel my services. I am the customer. And they refused to cancel. They told me I had to call them, even tho I am legally Deaf.
On 10.10.25 at 4:23 PM, I called Spectrum 5 times because I could not understand their prerecorded messages. Finally got a CSR on the phone. She told me the same thing as the Chat employee. That my account would be closed on 10.26 due to non-payment.
I said No, I wanted it closed NOW, equipment is being FedEx'ed back. I didn't want to be billed yet again, which would be a THIRD BILL by Spectrum. She assured me I would not be billed a THIRD time, that they would just remove that bill. Surprise, Surprise. Not only did Spectrum add that third bill, they also added late fees.
On 10.13.25 I shipped their Spectrum Return Kit, they received it back the next day on 10.14.25. So like others, they have their equipment back yet are still billing me, plus Late Fees.
I have now paid $208.95 for period ending Service from Sep 11 - Oct 10.
I am not paying for another month at $108.95 beginning on 10.11 since I contacted Spectrum on 10.5 & 10.10, which was the last day of that billing period, where Spectrum assured me I would NOT be billed, then billed me anyway, plus late fees.
They have also called my phone line for Deaf customers over 60 times.
I want my account closed.
They can erase the BS $108.95 that the Spectum CSR told me would not even be charged.
Supposedly Spectrum records their calls, they can go back and listen to this conversation.
Stop calling my phone.
Close this account immediately.
Bonus-they enrolled me in Paperless Billing. I have UNchecked that box 3 times, but each time I look, it's checked again.
I haven't received an actual bill from Spectrum in over a year.
Claimed loss: $108.95
Desired outcome: Remove the $108.95 from Account Number: 8284144770043293Close this AccountStop calling my phone.

They are the worst corrupt nasty horrible company they are stealing money and ripoff my services are the wost
Having to constantly reset equipment and deal with signal issues is unacceptable. It's even worse when they raise prices without delivering the promised service. Your frustration is completely understandable, and it’s clear that Spectrum needs to address these issues promptly.
You deserve reliable internet service and fair billing practices. I hope you find a better provider soon who values your business and delivers the quality you expect.
Billing
I had a balance of 96 something that was due by the 9th of June. On June 5th I made a payment of my back balance owed (that was allowed) of 45.94. The payment fully went through on the 6th. And was taken out of my bank account. Today, the 7th of June I got a notification from my bank that another payment from spectrum was taken out. So I got on my spectrum app and it stated as follows... thank you for your payment, it is currently being processed. Remaining balance due...0.00
Mind you after my payment that I intentionally made on the 5th there was still a balance due by the 9th. My card nor my bank info is connected in any way shape or form with the app nor am I auto enrolled for my monthly payments. I contacted them thru the app stating what had happened and a gentleman put in a refund order ticket. As my rent is due today and the remaining balance that was due came out of my rent money, ILLEGALLY AND UNAUTHORIZED... I contacted customer support via phone. The lady was very rude and kept talking over me and telling me that basically I'm a liar and it doesn't show the second payment on her end and still shows I have a remaining balance due. I told her (when I was able to actually speak) that I had proof both from the app stating my balance was now down to 0.00 owed and it stated thank you for your payment as well as my bank showing 2 separate transactions taken and completed on the dates of the 5th and the 7th of June. She told me that it's not on them. So not okay. I have already contacted my family lawyer. Will definitely be taking them to small claims. It may not be alot to some people but now there are other hoops I have to try to jump through with my landlord and the fees I can't afford now due to a short amount in rent. Not all landlords are willing to work with people. Truly lost a loyal customer.
Claimed loss: Over $200.00 plus what was taking illegally from my bank.
Desired outcome: An apology, my refund that was taken unauthorized, my fees that I now have to pay to my landlord and everything that was attached to my rent agreement. Plus them to explain to the judge why they feel they can get away with this!
