              Terrible service all around...constant dropouts on tv, internet gets interrupted left and right....phone calls to their office are a joke....put on hold 10-15 minutes listening to classical music...never receive a call back when they say they will call back....service techs just show up without any kind of notice. customers in Douglassville do NOT have any choices for service as this is the ONLY company offering tv/internet service....they have been in business since 1948 and STILL cannot get their act together!
