For a gigabit connection this connection is disappointing. Used to regularly get download speeds >800mbps but since March very rarely get over 300mbps. Only time I ever here from them is when the bill is due.
Pros
Very few outages.
Cons
Supplied modem is rubbish and not even worth the delivery fee, lucky to get 30% of advertised speed, no communication with customers asides from billing.

Worst internet provider. Doesn’t reply to my email (even though they are supposed to get back to me within 1-2 biz days) and I pretty much am not paying for a proper functioning wifi, it’s been almost 3 months. Would give no stars but 1 is the lowest.

I was a Slingshot customer from the beginning and found them satisfactory. However they had to be contacted to get upgrades. Never offered but would if matter perused. They also removed a free service without advising the change.
Pros
Good reliable service. Good pricing.
Cons
Had to be chased to get upgraded.
