If only I could leave zero stars If only I could leave zero stars, why does it take 7-10 business days to fully be removed from your internet service, kinda feels like a punishment for switching services. Do a bit more shopping, find a better deal - or do what earthlink does and just use AT&T.

Had a county wide power outage that… Had a county wide power outage that also took out our wifi. Fortunately, Earthlink has superb technical support teams that are very responsive, follow through on actions and then call back to ensure that the customer is getting the best service and resolutions that you deserve. This team are superstars.

I wish I would have read the reviews… I wish I would have read the reviews before I signed up!!! I ordered the modem and paid an insane $80 or $90. I got the modem and have been sitting on it because Comcast hadn't shut me off yet and I only had $100 in my account til the 3rd of next month. I didn't want to pay for two connections at the same time. Well I just woke up to find out last Friday they activated me and took $55 of the $100 I had left in the bank -without my approval-. They automatically signed me up for the $55 plan. I'm SO tired of getting taken advantage of these low life companies! What they don't know until now is that I'm going to call my bank, dispute not only the $55 charge but the $80 or $90 too. If they give me an address to send it back to I will otherwise I'm just going to throw away unopened box and all and they can eat the loss of the modem, shipping, and a brand new customer. For those of you who don't know. There is a way to get around their data caps they really don't want you to know about. In order for them to limit your bandwidth they need to see your IP. They can't do that with a good VPN. If they're throttling you go get a VPN and they won't be able to do anymore. That -was my plan. Now, I'm just going to ask my bank to give me back the money (and they will) and Earthlink will lose out purely because of greed. I should really learn to read reviews for anything before I sign up. Seeing their 1.4/5 average score I would have not signed up and went with someone else. Update: I spoke to my bank. They have filed the dispute for the $79.xx and are giving me back the money Earthlink charged me for the modem and after the $55 posts we're going to dispute that as well. Will update PRN. It's sad that their own greed is losing them money and customers. Update #2 3/21/2024: Per Sam's orders I did call. I did request the service be shut off and label returned to me. Neither were achieved. Now I have to go talk to my bank about both disputing that $55 that now it posted AND canceling this debit card and get a new one. That means I have to actually go into the bank and talk to a banker. Then, I have to change it will all my montyly billers. Blah blah blah FAR more inconvenient than it needs to be! I have this history, the bank history, and the call recorded. IF this shows up on my credit report I will easily have it removed! Looks like you lost a modem because of your own greed, Earthlink. If you were a decent company you wouldn't have lost a modem and would be making money instead of losing it. Maybe all of us reviewers (and supporters) of you could start a social media campaign to showcase how bad of a company you are? I know I'll be posting a link to this review. I wonder if anyone else will. #earthlinksucks ;)

The worst internet provider I have ever dealt with. I work from home and my internet went down on 09.29.23 and earthlink has provided nothing but lies and delays. Everyday my internet is down I can not work. I have already missed 7 days and counting. Worst customer service I have ever experienced. They promise a technician will come out I wait from 8-5 and he never shows up. Avoid this company at all costs!!!

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
