How we review internet in Phoenix
From the cheapest internet in Phoenix to finding local cable internet providers near you, our straightforward recommendations, based on numerous performance indicators, are the quickest way to narrow down your Wi-Fi options in Phoenix.
Our methodology
We evaluate broadband providers in four categories: affordability, performance, value and customer satisfaction. Each category contains multiple sub-factors, all of which are weighted differently to impact the provider’s overall score.
For each sub-factor, we score all providers on a continuous scale of one to five, relative to the industry as a whole. Because the average download speed in America is currently 290 Mbps, for example, we assigned all plans with download speeds between 100 and 299 Mbps a score between three and four. Xfinity’s 200 Mbps plan received a 3.50 score for download speed, while Spectrum’s 500 Mbps plan got a 3.71.
We only considered standardized data points in our scoring system. More abstract data like consistency of service and brand reputation is still part of our analysis, but we opted to let our writers address them in the context of each review.
Phoenix internet customer reviews
Transparency matters. That’s why we share real user reviews, even the not-so-great ones. As the premier internet marketplace, we give you the facts about ISPs to help you choose the best Phoenix internet provider with confidence.
I’m not happy with the speed of my Internet and I pay quite a bit for my service, at $75 a month, I shouldn’t have any problems.
3/5
Terrible service
1/5
Everything works well and speed is good although it’s lower running than what I pay for Mbps wise. I just feel that the price is outrageous and the customer service agent literally told me verbatim that they’re allowed to charge high as they want because there is little to no competition here in Phoenix. I think that’s predatory business practice but that would be my only complaint.
4/5
