What people really say about Cox
Who knows Cox better than the people who use it every day? Reading customer reviews can be a crucial step when choosing an internet provider. You get useful insights into common issues people have with their service and you get insider info about the pros and cons (ok, mostly cons) of a service. Though sorting through angry reviews might dent your confidence in a company, you can learn a lot about what to expect from customer service, billing practices, and the best ways to fix problems if you run into them. Just remember to take them with a grain of salt.

Terrible! We have regular outages and have to reset modem daily. Service said it was because of our modem and that they would mail us a replacement for free. It never came. I got the ACP program and called and CSR said it would be reflected on our next bill. Never got a confirmation email. Next bill price was unchanged. I contacted them by chat and they said wait another billing cycle. Chat was cut off, so I logged in to chat again. Got same agent, who didn't seem to remember or know anything about previous chat. This time they wanted me to click on a link to verify that I was eligible for ACP, when I sent them a screen shot showing my approval during the previous chat. End result of chat was that I needed to go in person with my husband to the Cox store. Do not get this provider!

Joke of a company. Over priced, don’t give you what they promise, transfer you from department to department I think in hopes you’ll just get frustrated and hang up. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. Go with anyone else except Cox. Terrible company. Terrible service. Save your money and yourself drone headaches and rising blood pressure and stay away

Terrible customer service, frequent outages, and throttling data. Who does that any more?

“Up to 500 mbps” No. Never. Maybe 350, but usually 200. In the basement where I had pay extra for an extender pod? Maybe 50 mbps. There is an orange cable on the ground in my backyard that runs through my neighbor’s yards and we all have to move it when we mow. It looks like an orange Home Depot extension cord. It’s been there for months. They ran the underground part; but never hooked it up. It’s sticking up out of the box. Now I got a notice that my bill is going up from $90 to $123, but they’ll give me a special deal of only $103 if I sign for 12 months. They just laid ATT fiber optic in my neighborhood. Faster and cheaper. Bye Cox.

I had to give up on Cox after a month or more of no service. I sat alone with a little radio and had no TV no computer or tablet. It was terrible. Desperate I went to a company that uses phone towers. The speed was perfect and the streaming wonderful. But it cost more and more as the month wore on. Despite takingthe highest data available, it was not enough for a single person with one tv and one computer. So far this month including set up fee I have spent almost 400 dollars.
