I've been with the same internet provider for about 5 years. They started as Sprint, became Sprint/Embarq, then I think another buyout, then finally Centurylink. The problem has been around since the very beginning. My internet constantly drops out during random...

I totally agree! They give lame ads excuses!

That's why we cancelled their service and went with LV.Net. awesome service and honest people no hidden charges or fees. No they are messing with us on sending us a return label for their modem. And still trying to charge us for their service!!

Lol.

Switched over 11/28/20. Lame *** company from sales to customer service to loyalty and technical support what a joke!!!!!

Malfeasance

1.0
On 10.11.21 Century Link severed my internet connection while installing a next-door neighbors service. I was informed it would be 9 days before bothering to repair the damage. A technician arrived on 10.19.21 and stated that my line had been severed &;;;;;;;;; wired into the neighbors residence. A 9-day waiting period for this display of gross incompetence\negligence is inexcusable. I will not pay for repairs nor for the 9 days without service. If they hadnt monopolized this area; i.e., had competition, this crap would not be tolerated and they would be out of business. I will be compensated for this malfeasance or seek legal damages.

Cancellation

I would like to cancel my internet service with you immediately. Please disconnect now. Let me know if I am responsible for returning the router, if so where and to whom? Theresa G Neill (843) 592-****.

Item not needed. No return address label

My Century Link service man reprogrammed my older modem. No need for new one. How do I return item . No label was included with new item

User's recommendation: If you contact Century Link they automatically send a new modem with no return label.

Very poor internet service

1.2
I pay for the standard, because there isn't any others offered, internet service, I pay $49.00 for the service but if I were to deduct $1 each time the service went out, they would be paying me that and probably more. I can't count on service for Zoom meetings, classes or streaming. The worst part it's the only service in my area. It use to be good but now it is lousy!..

CL lies, provides inconsistent and contradictory information, and hasn't fixed my service.

1.1
My complaint covers several areas, including that I had set up an appt. for a CL technician to come to my home and had FIVE bits of communication (three emails and two phone calls, one at 8:45 p.m. the night before) that one was coming. Then I was told the appt. was actually the next day and that I had changed it. No, NOPE and NO! I've been in touch with CL's Customer Service. I've been in touch with their FB staff. NOTHING, NADA, NOTHING! Horrible service and a complete lack of professionalism. Not even a molecule of it.

User's recommendation: Avoid CL but know all other providers are almost as bad.

Terrible customer service

1.0
We have had problems with our internet service on all 3 accounts that we have with them. Trying to get the representative to understand the problem and send a technician to the correct address has been a very frustrating and upsetting task. We have had very poor internet service for over 2 months and they still have not fixed it! They charge a premium price but give the worst service ever!

User's recommendation: If at all possible do not torture yourself by getting CenturyLink service!

We went through a 45 minute wait--each time of four times-to reach a human being. Our router it seems went out on a Friday afternoon, and finally a guy was able to "test" the problem and said we would receive a new router the next Tuesday. As we reached Tuesday...
