I had some issues with my service set up appointment and the regional manager Cedro as well as my sales manager for my neighborhood Alex went above and beyond to solve the problem and get my service connected and appointment attended to. I appreciate their efforts!
Response from the owner: Hello Ryan, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with working with our teams! I am so pleased to hear that Cedro and Alex were able to resolve the issues you were having - I will be sure they receive the recognition they deserve. Thank you for being a part of the Hotwire Communications community.- Margo, HWC Social Team
I called Hotwire to disconnect my fathers TV, phone and cable and Dana Nelson-Chambers took care of that in a very methodical and professional manner. Danah is a valuable asset at Hotwire. She went above and beyond with a friendly personality. She cares about the customer. If I was her boss I would be promoting her to a higher position because she has proven her worth and capability. Hi five Danah!!!
Huge thanks to Pedro and Martin for going above and beyond installing our new cable and internet system.. it was a complicated job and they nailed it. Highly recommend!!
Brandon in Tech Assist was great. He was very knowledgeable and patient.
Easy and quick call. Candice made it a breeze to go through the disconnect process.
Response from the owner: Hello Carola, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We are glad to hear Candice was able to assist you through this process. - Margo, HWC Social Team
We have had Hotwire in our condo for a few years now. The TV works great and everything is seamless with the exception of the occasional problems paying back shows from the previous day. This is an outstanding feature I have not seen on other cable companies. (Want to watch a show from 2 days ago? Just backup through the guide and find what you want and hit play) The internet is always stable and we have had no issues. This week we had our first problem. Something damaged our fiber cable coming in and hotwire sent a tech in 24 hours and had it fixed. From the first call to the repair everything was flawless.
Response from the owner: Hello David, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with your Hotwire services! I am so pleased to learn that you are enjoying the unique features of your Fision TV service, and that our teams were able to address your issue quickly. Thank you for being a member of the Hotwire Communications community. - Margo, HWC Social Team

I am a new customer with Hotwire and I had some discrepencies wiht my bill. I called and spoke with Edward who was super fantastic! If all service reps could be like him, the world would be a much happier place. Not only was he able to resolve my concerns quickly, efficiently, and with a great attitude, he kept me laughing the whole time. Thank you EDWARD!!!
I have had Hotwire for over a year and been very happy with the service. The internet was very strong, the support team, which I barely needed, was always available to me. I have moved and my representative, Chance, was so incredibly helpful in getting my account disconnected. Thank you to the whole team!
Response from the owner: Hello Lauren, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our services and working with our incredible support teams! I am so pleased to learn that Chancelour was able to assist you - I will be sure to share your kind words with her. - Margo, HWC Social Team
Evans Charles was awesome explaining everything. I enjoy the smart ready home and how easy it is to have good service! Please don’t sleep on these guys!!!
Randy from Playa Vista, was here today and finally found out what was wrong with my remote. I was embarrassed to call and he was so helpful. A simple thing and he was so helpful. A real gentlemen. Thank you so much Randy.
Hotwire did an incredible job repairing a cable that a construction company cut. Hotwire, immediately, repaired the cable and replaced a junction box that was also damaged. Hotwire was very communicative throughout the entire process. All of the employees involved were friendly, positive and efficient. Thank you for being such a great company.Dan
Response from the owner: Hello Daniel, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We are so pleased to hear our teams were able to quickly address the fiber cut and get you connected. Thank you for being part of the Hotwire Communications community!-Margo, HWC Social Team
Haven't had any issues with service in so long I honestly forgot it used to be a thing. Staff are always friendly, welcoming, and accommodating if I happen to bring the children in with me. Best internet service in my opinion.
Response from the owner: Hello Amanda, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with our services and working with our Salisbury team! We are so happy to hear you've had a positive experience. Thank you for being part of the Hotwire Communications community. -Margo, HWC Social Team
Bella is great. She was so helpful and kind.
Response from the owner: Hello Pamela, Thank you so much for sharing your experience working with Bella! We are so pleased to hear she was able to assist you. - Margo, HWC Social Team
It's been over a year with no issues. Service is fast and since my last review, has become very reliable. (I'm not taking credit, lol, as I understand they were doing some hardware upgrades at the time that caused the downtime and outages that I complained about. That's fair, but I do wish they'd been a bit more proactive about altering me in advance when that was going to happen) The few times I've had to contact them or go into the office everyone has been very helpful.
Bella, Kristi, and Laurie provide the best customer service and knowledge on Hotwire services. I highly recommend this company.

I Would Like To Say At First I Did Not Agree With Hot Wire Because It Was So Many Adjustments Made To My Account That I Was Not Aware Of Now I Absolutely Love It Because Of The Employee’s Her Name Is Kristy She Is The Best She Took Time Out To Explain Every And Anything I Asked Her She Made Me Feel Like I Was Someone Not Just A Account Number And I Would Tell Anyone If You Have Something Going On With Hot Wire And You Really Do Not Understand Please Please Ask For Kristy She’s A Beautiful Person Inside Out She Do Care About You And She Do Not Just Take Your Money And Make You Feel Like You Just Paying A High Bill And Do Not Why She Will Take Time Out For You And She Do Not Care How Long It Takes Because I Am 58 And I Need Someone Sometime To Take Time Out For Me But I Have Been In That Store When I taser She Does That For Not Only Me Everyone She Helps So I Will Definitely Stay With Hot Wire For Life
Response from the owner: Hello Gracie, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience working with Kristy! I am so glad to hear she has been able to assist you and deliver the concierge-level of service that is at the forefront of all we do. I will be sure she receives the recognition she deserves. -Margo, HWC Social Team
I switched from a popular and prominent internet service provider to Hotwire back in July 2023, and my experience has been amazingly wonderful. Especially working with Kristi Bradley! She is such a beautiful, understanding and professional employee. I have no regrets! Hotwire goes above and beyond when it comes to providing excellent customer service and their Internet service top tier!
Response from the owner: Hello Nikisha, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We're thrilled to hear that Kristi has provided you with the service standard that we strive to deliver - I will be sure she receives the recognition she deserves!- Margo, HWC Social Team

I've really enjoyed my experience with this company so far. I have been with them since they came to my area. I was with a previous company. I had too many issues to name. One issue was my router kept going out. I was told to get a new box. After the 4th time and them coming out cutting lines trying to fix the issue. I was done! After switching to hotwire I had one issue it was resolved quickly. It was an issue with the plug box. The guy fixed it and made sure everything was working properly before he left.

Update!!! Hotwire has really stepped up the game.The service is great .... when it works. We lost service for a day last week but they identified as a community service issue and it was fixed that day.We lost service again yesterday morning together with neighbors and several other people in our community, but Hotwire told me they won’t have a technician until Thursday. I told them to please try to send someone sooner- I am working from home and depend on the internet, but all I got was “they will try”. Some of my neighbors were lucky and were promised an appointment for today. Hotwire won’t acknowledge that this is an issue within the community despite the fact that multiple neighbors lost service at the same time and my request to please talk to a supervisor wasn’t granted either.
Response from the owner: Ursula - we were able to identify the problem and a local account manager in your community should be reaching out to update you and provide further assistance. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for brining this up to our attention so we can fix this ASAP. Thank you!- Melissa, HWC Social Media Team

I wanted to take a moment to let people know what great service Hot Wire provided. I was relocating my TV to a different wall and was told by my handyman to get Category Five cable. I was headed to Home Depot when I noticed the Hot Wire Truck heading to an account. The technician kindly got out of his truck and offered me some cable and gave me his card in case my handyman ran into trouble. Sure enough he had trouble with the project. No problem. Why? I called the gentleman’s name on the card, Jean and he came within minutes. Not only did he walk my handyman through the process he made sure all my equipment was hooked up correctly. Thank you Jean. I would have given 10 stars for the Hot Wire service if I could have. This was an example of a person and a company going over & above. Thank you!
Hotwire is an okay service provider but this review is for Ida LaGreca who works there who helped fix numerous issues with my account. She is a rare talent...
Christy did an amazing job with assisting me with getting my account squared away!!! She was very patient and very welcoming! I would allow Christy to help me any day ! Great work
Response from the owner: Thanks for taking the time to leave this review!-Luke, HWC Social Team
I have to say, I have rarely if ever been impressed by the above and beyond help that customer service can give (mostly because I feel nowadays people don't put any emphasis on friendliness at all). But oh my word, I want to take a minute to rave about Kristi here at Hotwire in Salisbury. She is hands down the kindest, most helpful and sweet woman I've ever dealt with in a company! She was friendly, made me feel totally comfortable with her immediately, went way above and beyond to help with our issues, just one of the nicest and warmest people I've had the pleasure to meet. Hey Hotwire! This woman deserves a raise and stuff! She's amazing 🙂 She truly made me feel like our issues mattered and would be fixed asap, and through all her hard work and talking with their techs out and about, she was able to have our issue resolved same day and I cannot thank her enough (and the lady from the front of the store was so kind too but I sadly can't remember the name but thank you to you too!!). Thank you thank you thank you so much to you Kristi, I'm thankful that we had the issues pop up, cause I was able to meet such a wonderful person and truly cheered up my day 🙂 The issue being fixed was just gravy!TLDR: If you're in Salisbury don't use the 800 number to get ahold of Hotwire Communications, go to the main street store or look up their local phone number online and get ahold of them that way, and I highly recommend dealing with Kristi cause she knows everything about her job so well, and makes you feel like your problem matters and you matter. She's awesome and their internet services are awesome too! I'm sure there are plenty of great people there, but I wanted to sing the praises as it were, cause they are deserved. Many thanks!!

Receptionist Laurie goes above and beyond to be helpful to customers as well as offering a smiling greeting. Her "first face" you see is a real plus in interacting in person at the Fusion store uptown.
Great service on the phone today from Daryll Gault, solved the problem quickly. Very nice customer service.
I'd like to take a moment and thank the staff for providing outstanding service. I experience major account and technical issues, Kristi/Todd went over and beyond to resolve the issues. Again THANKS
Response from the owner: Thanks for the kind words, Willette! We're happy to hear that Kristi and Todd were able to resolve the issues you were experiencing to your satisfaction!-Luke, HWC Social Team
I wanted to take a moment and write a review on how outstanding this company and service has been. I’ve had Hotwire for about three years in total and I really have enjoyed the service more so than Comcast. Karen S. was the rep that helped me in my Southwest Florida community.. I had a billing issue at the very beginning and she was outstanding in making sure everything was corrected as well as making sure that the account was always accurate. I would give her a five star rating as she should be a role model of other employees to try to model their customer service experience like. Thank you for a great company in Fision Hotwire

Bravo to the account manager for my community near Sanibel, FL, for the manner in which she handled an issue affecting all 194 subscribers. Customer service was of no help to me, and I finally got to this wonderful lady by doing some digging on my own. Not only did she "bird dog" the issue, but also she stayed on top of it, and kept me informed of the progress. Cable companies, in general, do not have very good ratings, however, I have had many companies in the last few decades, and Hotwire stands significantly above the rest of the pack. I only wish they could have more employees like the one who helped me out!
Response from the owner: Hello Michael,Thank you so much for the kind review. We will be sure to share this with our team so that the account manager will be recognized.-Grant, HWC Social team

TL;DR: Internet is fast, reliable and customer service is great. I have had one night of no internet in 4 years and they bent over backwards to get me back up ASAP.I have been a Salisbury Fiber customer since the Fibrant days and I had begun to see issues where my internet was going out for between 60-180 seconds every day. I spoke with Hotwire Support and they let me know that my issue was the older Fibrant equipment on the side of my house. The very next day they had a technician out to replace the equipment on the side of the house but there were still some issues on my line that had to be ironed out. First thing the next morning, the tech was back and got it all squared away and perfect within 20 minutes. Throughout my entire time talking to Hotwire, the account manager Chris and the technician Mike where in constant communication about what was going on and offering alternative solutions to help mediate the the spotty internet that I had for that night. They both went above and beyond to make sure that I was taken care of. Some folks may only leave 5 star review for perfect service and never let companies who have issues make up for them, but I sincerely appreciate, and would much rather pay my money to, a company that works to fix their issues and make sure the customer is happy. Id wholeheartedly and unabashedly recommend Hotwire Fision to anyone and I am looking forward to continued great service from them.Also, since some companies love to advertise speeds that I never manage to get, I wanted to include screenshots of multiple speed tests I did. I pay for 300Mbps up and 300Mbps down and Id say that I am actually getting those as real world speeds.

Again an entire channel line-up has disappeared. Channel 396 was a great channel, which I watched daily. The current lineup is repugnant, all of it old re-runs. The picture quality is great, but the programming is sad.

I usually don’t take to time to write reviews or comment on my experiences with specific companies. Today, I felt compelled to tell my story. I am new to a community just northwest of Atlanta. Most of the major communication companies do not service or partially services my address. Anyway, I established internet services with Hotwire (no problem there!). It was a smooth installation. The problem began when I decided to add home phone service. As of today, I have been waiting for 7 days to have my phone activated. The technician appointment was rather timely but then all the trouble started. Each phone number they wanted to assign was invalid (2 numbers). Then, the 3rd was assigned but I was told the Voice/Tech department had to activate my line remotely and give me my phone number. I was also advised that it could take 24 hours. Then, told to wait about 2-3 hours….but, wait! Again, I was told to wait 24 hours. I have talked to 5 different reps on 4 different days trying to get my phone activated. I will say that all of the reps I spoke to were very nice and did their best to alert, send emails, and get my issue resolved. Unfortunately, the results are the same. I was informed that the company recently migrated to a new system and was having come issues and backlogged. Uh, I think they should have told me the first day I inquired about the service. At least I would have known what to expect-a delay. At this point, I have lost all confidence in Hotwire to activate my phone service. Hotwire has lost credibility. In addition, they appear incompetent. I have wasted hours calling, being placed on hold, and waiting for a rep to answer the phone to end up in the same place as I started-no phone service. There is definitely a disconnect in their process. It’s very disappointing. At this point, I’m choosing to cancel my order and seek phone service somewhere else. I have wasted enough of my time. Good job Hotwire!6/4/2020-***UPDATE***This is an update to my previous post regarding my experience with Hotwire Communications. After my post and cancelling my request for phone service, the accounts manager, Korry Robinson called me to discuss what transpired. He apologized and explained why the process did not go as smoothly as expected. To avoid any more delays that he advised that he would be handling the situation if I still desired to obtain phone service. He made some calls and reach out to the appropriate teams to expedite the phone activation. He was prompt in his follow-up and informing me of where the team was in the process. To ensure that all bases were covered, he dispatched a technician to check the phone line in my home. I am happy to say that I have a working phone now. I know things happen but this is the type of customer service that is worth mentioning. Korry, thank you for going the extra mile and keeping the communication lines open to get this issue resolved. For now, I have added another star to the rating.
Response from the owner: Karita, we apologize for the experience you’ve had and I’d love to help further. If you can email me at [email protected] with the name on the account, property name and your phone number, I’ll make sure to escalate to a regional representative to make things right and get you up and running with your phone services.- Melissa
On 1/22/19 I called Hotwire Communications to schedule internet hookup at my new apartment. During that call it got disconnected with no attempt made by the representative to call me back. I called a second time and got my hookup scheduled for 2/4/19. My move in date was 1/26/19. I would’ve liked to have had it sooner but was told that was the earliest option. The scheduled time was 1-3pm on the 4th. I left work so I could accommodate the service technician. They never came. I called and was told the installation was actually scheduled for March 6th. The phone representative was apologetic and called to get more information. This call also accidentally disconnected. I called again to confirm the same. The second representative got me in touch with the first who let me know the service technician’s supervisor wasn’t available and that I could not speak with his supervisor. The next available installation date was 2/13/19. I explained this was unacceptable to place me back in rotation after this error occurred. She said she’d pass the message along to the technician’s supervisor.Here’s the problem with Hotwire Communications. They have a contract with my building and get paid out of my monies whether or not I choose to do business with them. As a result, they have exactly ZERO motivation or concern to serve their clients at this building or any other in which this arrangement exists. I would gladly pay more to a competitor if I wasn’t forced to pay them through my rental agreement. I plan to take my personal time to end this agreement with my building as quickly as possible. The other reviews here speak volumes. I have nothing against the people of Hotwire Communications. The problem lies in their business structure and organization, as well as the legal contracts in place that allow them to neglect clients while being paid anyway. Imagine if you could get paid for your job but not have to do it. Would you ever go to work? What do you think is human nature suggests?02/07/2019 Update: I was able to obtain a call from a supervisor that evening who was very apologetic for how I had been treated. It sounded sincere and they diverted a technician to my place the next morning who installed my services. The fact that an effort was made to right the wrong made a lot of difference. It should have been done the right time, but I feel it is justified to increase my rating from one star to three.

Box requires frequent reboot for DVR function. Features sub par in comparison to Tivo. They don't and won't support Tivo. No Apps available at all. Can't wait for contact to end!

My Internet is always going out. And the outage last for several hours including overnight. In addition to frequent overnight routine maintenance . My home doesn’t remain well protected with my alarm system because there’s always no Wi-Fi. I often have to leave my house and go find a hotspot because I have to work on assignments for school. Unfortunately, I get the service through my HOA and I don’t really have much of a choice with who I choose for service. I don’t know about in Florida, but hotwire in Texas is not the way to go.

I have been waiting 2 days for service to replace my 2 cable boxes and there is no help in site… The company told me that there aren’t any service technicians in my area because it’s a holiday weekend… My service has been out since July 4th and 1st available appointment is Monday July 8th… This has to be the worst communication company ever and of course my community in Florida has to use them exclusively probably because their bid was the cheapest one. I have called them 5 times and they keep making excuses… But Don’t worry when my bill is due I better pay. I have had a few issues in less then 12 months and they haven’t handled any issues well. I wouldn’t recommend this company at all, they are unprofessional, unreliable and the service is awful… Stay away and spend your money elsewhere and if they are the provider for the community you are looking to move to, run and run fast…

I live in a community with dozens of Hotwire customers. Hotwire advertises their extensive network of fiber optic cable. We've asked for that many times but still have the outdated technology.

Our cable service has been messed up for a couple of months. Our TV's all freeze up every 5-15 minutes, it's so annoying, especially during football season. We've had to take the time and money to go to sports bars to watch the games & with this economy, that isn't cheap. We've had FOUR service calls, several taking a couple of hours of our time and none of the technicians can figure out what the problem is. The first 3 service calls, it looked like things were fixed only for our TV to freeze up within minutes of the tech leaving. Last Tues was the 4th service call. The technician, who was super nice, couldn't figure it out. He told us that someone would call us within 24-48 hours to schedule another service call but with a more experienced tech. We never heard from anybody. I called our neighborhoods account rep but she never called me back. I got a hold of customer service today & they scheduled another service call for tomorrow. Maybe our service will be fixed, maybe not but the fact that we are going on our 5th service call in less than 6 weeks is ridiculous. The ONLY good thing we can say at this point is the service techs have all been super nice, professional and they all tried really hard to fix the problem.UPDATE: Hotwire did come out and fixed the issues but then they tried to bill me for the service call. It was THEIR services that were screwed up. After talking to their customer service, they credited my account for the service call.

Very poor honestly. For gaming experiences, even upgrading to more data isn’t enough for just a regular household, even for the phones, it can buffer and be very laggy in certain times of the day for some reason. Even worse, some areas can only be provided with this service and you can’t change that or install another one that is better. Though the pricing is cheap, it is still not worth to be having this company for WiFi because it seems like it can’t handle more than two phones connected at the same time without it being so laggy.
People come and don’t help you they just waste your time
The worst. Can’t even get in touch with customer service we’ve had no service for almost 12 hours. Internet is always going down with this company.
Hotwire was installed 3 weeks ago. For the past 2 weeks I have been calling to have my remote replaced. I have called 8x they have set up 3 appointments and canceled each one without notifying me. I have spoken to supervisors who promise to call me back and don't call back. Now Hotwire just hangs up on me. Stay away from this company.

Between the MULTIPLE Daily tests of the emergency broadcast system some days up to 3 Tests!! there is a 90 second delay on all channels including live sports the NYE ball drop etc. daily rescheduled update notifications. The inability to set tv show reminders. I’m starting to wish I stayed with Comcast. Hotwire is very amateurish in everything they do and provide!!
My HOA in its infamous wisdom decided to leave Comcast and go with this horrible company. From day one I’ve had nothing but trouble with my cable TV. I have to reboot my cable box on a consent basis to get it to work. The other day, I called for new service for a land line for the house and the representative set up an appointment for a Monday from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. At 12:15 pm I called to see where the tech was and the representative told me that the number wasn’t ready and that they will have a tech out the next day. At 11:00 my wife calls to confirm the appointment and the representative assured that the appointment was still on. 10 minutes later I get a call from scheduling and they told me that they have to reschedule once again due to the technician calling out. This company is absolutely terrible. I’m going to be paying more so I can deal with a more reliable company. Do not go with Hotwire!!!
TV service is horrible, lips of the dialogue is like watching a Japanese movie. I have to reboot each box no less than 3 times a week. My neighbors and I have had more issues with Hotwire in 5 months than 25 years with Comcast Xfinity. I regret changing over. The only good thing is their WiFi service is excellent.
Good when the service works, when an outage happens is SUCKS for days.I've sent my contact information and never heard back.July 12, and just like that no internet again.

My community chose to have Hotwire to replace Xfinity back in March 2024. They came in and dug up my newly landscaped front lawn, drilled a hole through my concrete house and hit rebar and had to patch it with putty and never painted the spot that they drilled My sod that was dug up became covered with weeds, and the landscaping stones that edged the lawn were buried underneath the dirt. It is now July and no one has come back to repair the damages. They have done to my property. I have corresponded with Cesar via email with photos and nothing has been done. I would not recommend this company as they do not service their customers. My Internet does not reach my ring camera and I had to put a Wi-Fi booster at my own expense. Do not use Hotwire.

Most Spanish channels from Fision TV geared for South Florida are from Mexico, and not all Hispanics are from Mexico, in South Florida there are 4 millions Puertoricans vs the Mexican population that is almost non-existing.You can add without cost a channel named “Wapa America” from Puerto Rico. This is for the 4 millions Puertoricans living in Florida.Please also add “Antena 3 Internacional” from Spain, this a great channel geared for all Latin American countries and is free of charge as well. Fision only have TVE which is a government channel from Spain with poor programming.
Worst service ever! Stay away from them! Don’t even consider their service! They don’t even deserve one star.

Paying 80 dollars for 400mbps is highway robbery. We can't even get better options since our building won't allow it. So we are stuck with mediocre service and internet. I run a lot of electronics. This service can't keep up.

Stay far away from this place. Old Outdated Routers. When I originally joined the equipment was ZTE Routers, banned by Trump Administration for China Spyware! I had to buy another router. Theirs didn't even go the full speed! I had 100 megabit but their wireless only went 54 megabit. No Ipv6 service. This means all the streaming services like netflix, disney, hulu, etc, have to transmit on IPv4. IPv4 does NOT behave the same way as Ipv6. IPv6 has "autowindow negotiate", "auto multicast", "autofragmentation resolution" and a bunch of other snazzy things that make computing worth while. They wouldn't upgrade the network to have IPv6.After 6 years with them, I went with Verizon Wireless. There are multiple Wireless services since 5G-UW came out. Tmobile has one, Att, etc. Do your research. It was the worst internet provider I have ever had in my life and I've had internet since 1995 with AOL.Their tech support is hideousTheir business service is okThe Fiber Service is incredibly reliable. This is the best Pro *** that I can think of. It dosen't have a UPS so if there is a power outtage, you're offline, but other than that, the fiber is FAST.The TV Service is rotten. The DVR-s are 1080i and 720p. My TV is 4K and I'm trying to get an 8k TV! This means I had to stop using DVR but they STILL CHARGE for all the services. DVR, PHONE, You can't get package without them! So if you're a remote worker, bring your own router, have your own equiment, it should be like $60. IT's ALWAYS like $200 minimum and some years I was paying $340 a month for service each month locked in a multiyear contract.Their conflict resolution services were abysmal.Finally when I left, they charged me $700 deactivation charge, saying I ended my contract early even though I didn't have a contract. When I called on the phone, the guy told methat he was recording everything I say, and that I would have to pay the amount or they will send it to a collections department.I ended up maxing out my last credit card and taking out a pay day loan but at least the last bill is paid. They were going to damage my credit, with my well respected and well deserved benchmark! I was very angry at this insult. I pay my bills! the Sunshine in Florida must have burnt the apathy off their bums!

Horrible service. System always crashing. Always have at least one nonfunctional tv. They tried to charge me for a service call. Tv programming not accurate, ABC news comes on at non scheduled times. Movies on Hallmark stop suddenly after an hour and do not resume. A coat hanger or rabbit ear antenna much more reliable. Do not waste time or money with this company's service.It's now a day later and the service went out again last night... customer service useless. Technical service dept could not help! Life is too short to waste sitting on the phone with these idiots.
Update 6 months: still no service, tech came out and said the install team forgot to split the wire, they did it over a month ago yet no one calls or comes to finish the install that I have been requesting for 6 months. I call and they say the systems doesn’t show the wire was ever split….. if my HOA never picked this company I would never do business with them. When I asked the last tech why a wire had to be run across the wall of my house turns out it does not need to, since it’s a wireless system, the initial install team wanted to run a wire across the wall of my house bc I can only assume they make more money for more work.Update: 2 months have passed since my cable was supposed to be installed and no one has contacted me nor come by to install. Just because you try to say you’re sorry via a review doesn’t make your service better.My associate, the moors, just selected them for our service provider and it’s just been horrible. The workers have nothing to do and seat around all day in front on my house in lawn chairs, they leave there trash around and work on their car, worse is they take all the visitor parking and are not even working, just hanging out talking to each other for the last 2 months. They get here every morning, pull out their chairs and do no work all day. They don’t even wear uniforms which just makes it worse as it’s just a bunch of random people hanging out in front of the house. To make matters worse, they have attitudes , when I walk out my house they just stair at me and say nothing, they are disrespectful.The reason the have so much free time is that they are lazy in installing and have no concern for your house, they will wrap a wire around the entire house inside and out just to not move a box to better location. You need to be firm with the. Or they will do whatever they want to your house.

Destroyed my front house !!! Worst customer service stay away!!!
Update on prior review. A technician showed up on Saturday morning to inspect my modem - again. Not a line technician (as I had requested). So the visit on Saturday just confirmed what the visit on Thursday said (and everyone said going back to October) - IT'S AN OUTSIDE/LINE PROBLEM. The tech said he was scheduling a line technician to come out, but it probably wouldn't be until next week (I had service at the time but typically it goes down in the afternoon). So when my service went out again today (Sunday 6/9 at 2:41 pm) I called again to let them know. And that's when I found out that the line technician was scheduled for tomorrow, Monday, between 2 and 4. Was anyone going to let me know? And even though they said I didn't need to be here, rest assured, I will be here. To record every last moment.BTW, the tech on Saturday said he was from Miami and had been called in to help (I'm in Pompano Beach) because there were so many service calls. I couldn't help but snicker when he said that.The local line technicians are morons. It was installed improperly and no one can figure out what the problem is.Should I try Sling? Go back to Comcast? Something else?
Installation was in August 2023. In October, I had problems with my service that took 2 days to resolve. In December, I had the same problems with my service again that took 5 days to get resolved - "Fail" light on the modem (no signal). It was an external issue (meaning not in my unit) but multiple service calls had each service person look at the modem and say, "Yep, it's an external line problem." Reportedly, they had to replace "a part." And then the problem started again this past Wednesday (6/5/24). Called that evening and service arrived the following morning before 10:00. But by they my service had come back. Technician checked everything and said the speed was too low and someone would be out to check the external wiring but I didn't need to be there. So I went to work. Two and 1/2 hours later I get a call from a technician saying he's at my building and wants to come in and check my service. I explained I wasn't home, was told I didn't need to be home, and I wouldn't be home until around 7:30 pm. He said he's checked everything in the building and didn't find a problem, but to let them know if I do. Surprise, around 4:00 pm I got a notification on my phone that one of my services at home that uses WiFi is not working. (I guess I shouldn't have been surprised.) I called Customer Service and said I needed someone out there first thing in the morning because my service was out AGAIN. I was told first available appointment was 10:00 am on Saturday. It's odd that I could call at 8:00 pm on Wednesday night and have someone out there before 10:00 the next morning, but calling at 4:00 pm I can't get a service appointment for two days. Was told that the local office had been notified to try to get an appointment before Saturday AM and I'd receive a call. At 7:00 last night I got a text message confirming my Saturday morning appointment. Service came back around 10:30 last night. But just a little while ago (3:53 pm), I got a notification on my phone that my WiFi services had gone down again. So, fingers crossed, they can fix the problem tomorrow. If not, they can pack up the equipment and get it out of my condo. Because it's not worth the aggravation.If this service had not been foisted upon me by my condo board (a Pompano Beach, FL condo), I would not have gotten it and would certainly have replaced it by now. But the cost has been passed on to the unit owners through monthly assessments, so why should I have to pay for Comcast (a much more reliable and better quality service) on top of what I'm now paying in monthly assessments for TV/Internet service?
Do not use this company at all. I got a call from them today and We do not want them. WE are going to stay with Comcast. The majority of the neighborhood residents voted against hotwire it but then somehow it got put back up on the board agenda and the majority of the board members approve it . I called the company and they already had our information and set up an account for us without our permission. They also couldn't tell us how they got our information ? Now the lawn is messed up and sprinklers are not working. Hotwire things they can open Comcast box which thay can't. Our internet and cable has been messed up. Now we have to wait to get it fixed

So basically same thing happened again. I come to miami cond once a month. Sometimes I miss my payment. I paid my balance once I foung my internet disconected. Then after several hours I have to call tech support to reactivate internet connection. Tech support is useless they cant do anything. After trying for couple of days they send a technician after couple of days again. Technician spends 3-4 hours to fix something and then internet is back. So basically that thing happened again today. 3rd time in 1 year when my internet got disconnected and cant be activated back until technician comes back. So basically Im paying my bill for 2-4 days of no internet. Scammers

I would avoid this Company at all cost. Get an antenna before using their service. The Customer Service is worse than Comcast back in the day. Promises of call backs never happen. The Technician never called me, he showed up to the wrong unit and then left. No emails no call nothing. I called customer service 4 times with the promise of a call back and nothing. I scheduled my appointment a week early because I am a work from home employee. Now my career is impacted because of the incompetence within the ranks of the Company. Pathetic

Terrible internet service just TERRIBLE. Internet went out March 19th and 3 weeks later there is STILL no internet in my home. Abysmal ISP and they get away with their mediocrity because they’re the only ISP available in the neighborhood.
My community switched 2-3 years ago. We had Xfinity prior.It is like an old Kia ( Hotwire) compared to a new BMW or Mercedes ( Xfinity).Yes maybe we are...
Gave this one star so they would take notice. Don't have it but understand they are good. Stop in Marco Island, South Seas East and maybe discuss with them, would sure beat what we have now.
Update:Margo,If you had looked into my account, you would see that I have reached out numerous times via the Hotwire app and email about the numerous and ongoing issues. Furthermore, I have asked for a refund due to lack of service and breech of contract but have been told that either this is not something that can be done or that they are “looking into it”. I have proof if needed and I will post here if you prefer. Please reach out to me to discuss reimbursement; however, this fake public show of sympathy is unappreciated and unacceptable.Respectfully,Elizabeth HiltonI am currently taking my son to Starbucks, again (second time this week), as he has been waiting for our internet to be strong enough to upload a class project that was due yesterday but that we still can’t upload because of internet outages and poor quality of service. This will negatively effect his grade.I would have never moved to Dunham Marsh knowing that there is a monopoly by Hotwire. I can no longer work remotely from home due to these repeated issues. If I were to tally up the total expenses related to poor internet service, Hotwire would pay me monthly to have their “services”. I am embarrassed and ashamed that something as small as internet service can reek such havoc in my household’s life but that is the world in which we live.Do better. Be better. Make up for the inadequacies in service and save face. It is not too late for Hotwire to redeem themselves. However, at this point, it would take a lot.

Absolutely terrible provider. They are the ONLY option for our neighborhood and you can tell they know we have no other options. Completely unreliable internet service. I would give 0 stars if I could.

Unreliable and slow service. DVR rarely works and the internet is frequently outcausing HUGE problems for those of us that work from home. The company is managed poorly (how else would you explain scheduled maintenance outage occurring on a Monday morning and lasting 6 hours past the time they claimed service would be restored?). Outages take forever to resolve. The company is completely apathetic to the woes it causes our community because they know we're trapped in a terrible contract that a majority of the people in our community don't want and are hoping to make every concerted effort to get out of. Would give this company no stars if I could. Choose literally any other company. Avoid Hotwire like the plague.

Super trash do not give them your money
One star is too manyWhen the workers came to install the line, they cut off our telephone line, the existent internet wire, and another unknown line and...
One of the worst service providers that I have ever had to deal with! Internet connection is ALWAYS down! Most of the remote technicians are untrained and unable to restart your service remotely! If you dare complain even a little bit some of the remote technicians will all but cuss you out!I have only remained this long because of the price! But my patience is wearing thin... you get what you pay for... and even with their lower price they should give you change for this horribly unreliable service!
Just awful, drops connection all the time, inconsistent communication, just a real estate play, just awful, wouldn't recommend
Horrible service. It's currently not even working. Everyday something doesn't work and have to reboot daily. Poor customer service. No 24/7 tech support as promised.
Over all terrible in every aspect of service. For example when a service call does not fully fix a problem customer service emails service dispatch who never calls (customers can't speak to dispatch)And they then blame each other and nothing happens.
You need to HOPE that the initial contract and setup is what you want and has no problems because it is impossible to get someone to take responsibility and fix it. The customer service number is useless to get any non-equipment problems fixed.
The absolutely worst internet experience that I have ever had. If you happen to have other internet providers in your area, save yourself a headache and go with the competition. My community has frequent outages weekly and the customer service is inept. I wish I got the customer service reps name because he frequently cut me off and actually raised his voice at me. Surely something he would not have done if standing face to face. I am disgusted .Avoid this company!
Tv wires left hanging from wall little to no education on systemCalled for further service what a mess 6 calls from Hotwire to figure out why they didn’t show for appt3 different people called making new appts and all said they had double booked or couldn’t make itI will use a neighbor to figure this outI also ask for handicapped assistance they do not have remoter or educators who can help the disabled !!!!!
I appreciate the response to my review. However, I have no confidence that you will address this. And I'll tell you why. The install was on March 10th....
If you have a choice between hot wire or Radio opt for Radio the worst customer service and tech support, no call backs they have been to my house 3 times...
They have a lot of nerve using the word communication their service is not worthy of that name
Lost my internet connection out of nowhere, called customer service and was told that it would be 3 days before a tech could come out to fix my service. The customer service rep (named Tyler) even yelled at me when I asked if they could come out sooner. This is the last straw for me with this horrible service. Will be cancelling as soon as possible.I've been dealing with random connection drops for years with this service, but I've kept it because of the price. Turns out you get what you pay for. AVOID THIS COMPANY!

Terrible customer service!
Dishonest installers, disinterested management. Hotwire installers stole from Amazon package on our porch (gated community) and left Hotwire materials in the box. Contacted management, no response.
The absolute worst system, service and technology . I never thought some system would make Comcast look outstanding. Run from these people!
Service is always out of whack at my house. They never resolve the issue. Google fiber we are ready for you.

Internet service is horrible, frequent down times. Sometimes outages are days not hours. Stay away from them. When you call for ETA reps will just hang up, and they never have ETA for any down times.
Son la misma estafa de siempre, imposible que dejen de cobrar el servicio cuando uno lo quiere dar de baja ! ESTAFA TOTAL !
what the hell people. it's christmas eve 2022 and now christmas day and still no god damn internet. can't watch movies, absolutely nothing. how do you...
If you have another option I would suggest that you go with that option. Internet services constantly goes out and tech support can never troubleshoot remotely. When this happens you'll be without services for 3-5 days even though this is a local provider that only serves this small area. Techs are never available the same-day or the next day. They say they'll escalate your issue to ensure your services are back up and running quickly but that never happens.
Signed up for auto pay never did debt my account called 5 times they refused payment because it was on auto pay and then turned off and still took hours to fixAnd they do not careAvoid this company!!Switching asap

I lost my home entirely due to hurricane Ian. I called Hotwire Communications on October 03, 2022 to cancel my services permanently. Yet Hotwire...
Horrible customer service! Avoid if at all possible! We’re stuck because our neighborhood HOA switched to this provider. They cancelled our original internet service install and will not provide a new schedule. Promises to get back with us have not been fulfilled. We need the service for our work from home and these people do not care, We get the run around every time we call for an update. We’ve had some poor cable/internet providers over the years but this company tops the list (or bottoms the list if you prefer).
The worst provider we’ve ever encountered. Promised a call back within 24 hours from customer service, never received it and when I called again to touch base they basically verbally shrugged and said they would call us when they felt like it. Unbelievable. We’re stuck because our. HOA contracted with them. Avoid if at all possible!
This is a low-quality outfit. The installers are low-paid amateurs who do not know what they're doing. Rather than reveal their incompetence and ignorance...
Despite surviving a major hurricane, our business is fully operational and Hotwire has internet available, but they refuse to turn on our internet feed. Customer service is atrocious and they refuse to work with us. Completely ridiculous.
The worst internet service ever. It's ALWAYS going out which affects my home security system and my business which is ran through my computer.I just called and was told they can't come out for 2 daysBy then I will have contracted another internet provider
Receptionist at desk( elderly woman)Has a very negative and standoff ish attitude,And makes your ordealWorst adding to the reason your there...would not recommend this TV service to anyone in the rowan County area.
My internet service been out for 2 whole day I even spoke to woman that works there she told me that the internet is back running all I need to do is reset so I go home n reset n nothing thinking about changing internet service

Terrible Service-In fact the worst ever…I’ve called over a dozen times to have my internet wire buried underneath ground level and they always promise to send someone however nothing ever get resolved. We have been in our new home for quite some time now and we still have our internet wire laying across our lawn. Turns out there are at least a dozen other homes in our nice community with the same issue- “internet wires completely exposed on the lawns”The Better Business Bureau will hear my story today.

Bad company, I canceled my internet service after moving out in May and they decided to charge me for the entire month of June. I would never get internet from this company again. Bad news.

Worst internet service ever. The internet up time is less than the internet downtime. And the service is out for days and days. Basically they don't have enough man power. Humble request be aware of them.

Hotwire is terrible. Don't get it. HORRIBLE. I can not say anything nice about it.
Customer service is an absolute JOKE!!!! I was wrongly charged $548 for cancelling my service AFTER my contracted had ended. They admitted the mistake, but said refunds can only come from supervisors who you can never get on the phone, never call you back, and never issue refunds. Been waiting for 2 months and have been told a supervisor will be calling me back every time I call (once a week). Get your act together Hotwire your worse than COMCAST!!!!!

WORST company and billing/customer service people I have ever had to deal with. They’ve taken months to resolve an issue…like literally over two months and counting. Every time I call I have to re-explain the whole issue to a new person, they tell me it will take a week to review everything, I never hear back and have to call again. Now they cut off my internet service. If there were any other internet providers servicing my area, I would change providers with no hesitation.Update: This issue is now going on SEVEN MONTHS. They shut my wifi off every single month, I call, they say they’re still reviewing my information. Now I was just told after calling for the 7th month that the information I sent was apparently unacceptable. Worst run company ever.

I am forced to use Hotwire in my condo association. I scheduled for an install three weeks in advance. Install was supposed to be 8 to 10 AM. At 10:30 I called and was put on hold for 30 minutes. After five calls and 2 1/2 hours on hold at 3:30 in the afternoon I was told somehow I was not put on the schedule even though I got emails and text confirming. They finally sent someone out the next day again later than scheduled finally got install done. Fast forward two weeks my entire system went down can’t access TV called in after three resets can’t figure out what the problem is-and they need to send a technician out 2 days from now. I would pay them not to have the service. It is awful. Two cans and a string would be better.! Two different TVs and two different issues.

Scheduled this instalation two weeks out asked for a day off from work, the "technician" came out at the appointment time 8am-11am(8:15arrival). I saw the Hotwire utility van pull in my driveway and leave 5 minutes after arriving they NEVER MADE CONTACT OR STEPPED OUTSIDE THE VAN?!! No call no email no text of any issue,giving them the benefit of doubt i wait until 10:30 for them to them me there was an issue with my breaker? They will contact to RS once they fix the problem?And we all know how those call backs go. Lesson Learned back to spectrum i go 🙁 and i was really excited to try them out.

I’ve been calling since MONDAY, trying to get internet service. I was transferred several times, didn’t report the representative that transferred me after I asked for his name because of the way he was talking to me. I spoke with someone Tuesday and she told me I have to wait 72 hours for a response. My landlord told me I have to send over a copy of my lease agreement. I did that, and proceeded to call the next day to speak with someone in regards to that. They told me because of my area code they would have to get a representative to call me back in the area I’m in, and I should receive a call pretty quickly. Well it’s Friday, I still don’t have internet or an appointment, or call back. And I’ve been calling for the past hour and a half. Of course no answer. When someone calls back, make sure it’s a manager!

I currently have Hotwire Communications as a part of my apartment complex lease. It is the worst and slowest internet that I have ever had (I do not game, stream movies, download large files, or other activities that may impact the speed of the internet. Essentially, I pay $70 per month for little internet and very poor cable options. In addition, the customer service from Hotwire is deplorable. If you enjoy spending hours on hold trying to get one question resolved, while paying too much for very poor service than I suggest you look at Hotwire for home internet and cable.

I have this internet as a part of my HOA package and it’s terrible. The prices to upgrade are 3 TIMES as much as other providers.

If I could leave ZERO reviews it would be too many stars. We are bound by our HOA to use Hotwire. They provide terrible service, and their internet speeds are dismal, if not non existent. I had to have another company install an internet line, so that I could work from home at added expense. Hotwire doesn't care - customer service is non existent. Horrible internet speed. How does less than 0.1 download sound to you? What a monthly rip off - for 13 years.
Response from the owner: Hello Betsy,We are working hard on a solution to the issues facing residents at your community. We are close to an agreement with your community's developer after 18 months of negotiations which would upgrade your services to our Fision Fiber Optics product line and greatly improve your overall serviceability. If you'd like a full break down of what we are doing to improve your community, please email us at [email protected] and we will be happy to go over all of the details with you.-Grant, HWC Social Media Team
One star rating is too generous. Hotwire does not deliver service levels as stated in a contract with our HOA, not even close. Many residents in our community work from home and are unable to be productive due to non existence of internet. It is unacceptable and they continue to ignore trying to resolve the issue in a timely manner, often times ignoring complaints made or denying there is an issue at all.

I wish Google had a rating below 1. I have lived in a community I just love that is tied into a contract with Hotwire. The service is disturbingly awful. Spotty at best. Broken at worst. There have been countless days and weekends where our entire neighborhood was getting either no internet service or less than 1Mbps download speeds. This company is a joke.

Internet and cable went out in half our neighborhood. They tried saying my house is an isolated incident and someone will call me in the next 24 hours. I WORK FROM HOME! Support tech sounded poorly trained and uneducated in his field. They dont care about customer service because they trap communities in contracts and ownership of fiber optic cables. They dont care about service, people or communities! They only care about the almighty dollar. Horrible company.

Hello all...I’m here to join in on the horrible Hotwire reviews. If you’re not required to use them...STAY AWAY. I move down into a new home and there was no fiber wiring done. I’m going on week three and still have no internet. Upon calling them, I got few promised call backs. Most of my phone conversations were met with answers consisting of “I don’t know” and extremely long wait times to speak with people that couldn’t help me.I watched them tear up my yard yesterday digging for fiber and I am still waiting for services. Also the job done on wiring was pretty terrible. I don’t recall ever having (or seeing) a setup with wires hanging out of the wall...One technician did come out to connect the TV services and he was pleasant.If you don’t have to deal with them....RUN AWAY! There’s a reason they have 1.7 stars...UPDATE - 4/10/2019Appointment was scheduled for someone to come out and fix internet. Someone showed up a day early while no one was at home and NO ONE showed up when we actually planned to be home for the real appointment. Also, cable still laying above ground in my yard....

Hotwire is the single most awful company I’ve ever used. Literally EVERY single Hotwire product I have in my house breaks down constantly, and when it does work it has the worst performance I’ve ever seen. For instance, one of the product I have is their Fusion WiFi router and half of the time it would take you over five minutes just to load anything and the other half of the time it just fail. The only reason I’m using this garbage is because my neighborhood is requiring everyone to use Hotwire. And because of this reason I despise my neighborhood for even associating themselves with this abomination of a company. In short, to any who’s even considering buy anything made by Hotwire, DO NOT BUY IT! It will be the worst investment you’ll ever make.
Response from the owner: Hello! We apologize for the inconvenience. We will be more than happy to try and rectify the problem. Please send us an email with the name of the property and the name and phone number associated with the account. You can email this information to [email protected]
These people are scammers. Never open an account with them. They make underhanded deals with apartment communities to scam you together. By the time you’ve been paying the bill in yyour rent for months Hotwire sends you their bill which has never been paid. I’m 650$ short so far. And I use Google fiber only. Still paying for service I can’t use. Thanks for nothing Hotwire scam machine.
Response from the owner: Hi Mysha,It sounds like you were still being charged for services when you no longer had an account with us which, if that's the case, can be easily corrected with one of the members of our billing team. If you can, please email us at [email protected] and provide us with your account name, community name, and a good contact phone number and we will hopefully get this resolved to your satisfaction.-Grant, HWC Social Team
Hotwire is a FAILURE! There is no service function. I pay some $91 per month to be placed on hold for 21+ minutes when I called to increase my service. There is no 'management' involvement to call. Whatever you do, Avoid Hotwire... - Bill Hackaday Jan. 07, 2019
Response from the owner: Hi Bill,21 minutes is quite an usual wait time, and we're sorry you had to wait so long to get in touch with a member of our team! If you still need help, we'd like to have our executive management team reach out and take care of this for you!Please send us an email at [email protected] and include your account information and we'll do everything we can to get this taken care of.-Grant, HWC Social Team
Horrible customer service, erroneous charges, and complete incompetence. Beware of this company!

If you can, please email us at [email protected] and provide us with your account information, so that we can have the opportunity to make this right for you.-Grant, HWC Social Team
This is actually a review I should have done years ago but I feel that I need to do. This company does not try to solve customer's problems, at least on the residential side. I would connection problems when it rained or when they were working on a different unit in my complex. If there was tech working next door and my service was disconnected. He wouldn't look at what he did to disconnect me. As I work from home, I've lost several days of work because of the poor service I received from Hotwire. The other tennants complained as well. My complex eventually successfully sued to get out of Hotwire's contract and was able to have Comcast/Xfinity to service the complex. I am completely satisfied with my new service. If Hotwire plans to stay in business, the need to do a whole lot better with customer service!
