Beware of Earthlink's Unfair Practices and Poor Customer Service with Earthlink… Our recent experience with Earthlink has left us thoroughly disillusioned and frustrated. After relocating to a new area where Earthlink does not offer service, we had no choice but to cancel our subscription. However, what followed was a harrowing ordeal marked by Earthlink's unreasonable policies and lack of concern for customer satisfaction. Despite our earnest explanation to Earthlink representatives that our cancellation was solely due to their inability to serve our new location, they callously insisted on imposing an early cancellation fee. We pleaded with the managers we spoke with, hoping for some understanding and leniency given our circumstances. However, our appeals fell on deaf ears as they remained unwilling or unable to waive the fee. We were promised that the executive team would reach out to discuss the matter further. While they did attempt to contact us, we were unfortunately out of town at the time and missed their call. Since then, we have diligently pursued a resolution by reaching out to Earthlink on numerous occasions, only to be met with silence and indifference. Nearly two months have passed since our initial attempt to address this issue, yet we are no closer to a resolution. The utter disregard for customer concerns and the lack of responsiveness from Earthlink are simply unacceptable. In conclusion, our experience with Earthlink has been nothing short of a nightmare. We feel unjustly penalized for circumstances beyond our control, while Earthlink demonstrates a blatant disregard for customer satisfaction. We caution prospective customers to think twice before choosing Earthlink for their internet needs, as our experience serves as a stark warning of their unfair practices and abysmal customer service.

If I could give this company zero stars… If I could give this company zero stars I would. I recently moved to a new city and decided to give Earthlink a try. I immediately regretted by decision. I work from home and rely on the internet. On average, I get under 1 download speed and less than 1 upload speed. I have called their support team 3 times this week and spent hours on the phone with no solution. They nickel and dime you, support is horrible - they promise to escalate and nothing happens - they promise to call you back and nothing happens. I have to rely on the hotspot on my phone to do what I pay this service to do. And when I asked for a credit or refund because I can't use this service - they offered me $15... come on what a joke.

Trustpilot needs a zero star option for… Trustpilot needs a zero star option for companies this bad. We had sporadic, weekend-long outages for a while and now our internet hasn't worked for more than a few minutes at a time in a month! Our computer and modem are newish, we're both tech-savvy, and we've done all the bogus "fixes" they've suggested. Don't waste your money or frustrate yourself by dealing with Earthlink.

By far the worst company in… By far the worst company in communication and service. My internet was disconnected yesterday got it back up to date same day and the next day it’s still not back up and working . Agent says it’ll be on Monday!?? From Friday morning ?? Ridiculous. Even when getting the internet installed on my moving day they changed my dates around because it was more convenient for them to come on a different day than I scheduled! If I could go back to Spectrum or Verizon i would . But they are out of my area

I was a 25 year Earthlink customer I am a 25 year Earthlink customer. Recent password reset which they said "you might have been hacked". Vague, inconsistent advice and failure to fulfill my repeated requests to have Earthlink Security contact me. When I told the help that I would have to terminate my service after 25 years they said "sorry for your inconvenience. Addt'ly, download speeds uniformly much slower than I was paying for. Overall very shabby service for the high monthly rates paid.
