Xfinity, Windstream, and Fraud For years I was forced to use Windstream (now Kinetic) due to no other providers. Recently I got fed up with the incredibly terrible internet speeds. I pay $150 a month and it's a complete rip off. You simply do not get the service you pay for, I am saying this company must be engaging in fraudulent activity, as there is absolutely zero other reasoning which fits. But, over the passed week I learned of TMobile Gateway, basically a box you plug in and it uses cellular towers at 5G speeds. Now, this gateway is supposed to be far inferior to Windstream, but this isn't my experience. For 50 dollars a month, one third of what those criminals at Windstream charges I am experiencing far superior everything, including performance than the rip off 150 dollar Windstream fraud. For years they ripped me off, not once did it ever perform close to advertised, and after they get done nickel and dimeing the reasonable sounding $30 internet plan balloons up to $150. This is false advertising, complete fraud. Yes they were just sued about their fraudulent ways, in 2021 I believe. There is no way they aren't doing this on purpose, the final bill being 5 times, literally 5 times higher than it should and the internet plan (I had one of the upper tier plans, still not much better than dial up). Anyway, I am seriously thinking of starting a class action lawsuit, this unethical company needs to be put out of everyone's misery. They lost the last one, now looks like it's time to get a bigger list of people who have been cheated by Windstream who ultimately failed to hold true to their own conditions and inflated prices by a magnitude of 5. Wish I could have a return like that. But I wouldn't advertise a service knowing I couldn't fulfill my end. Windstream on the other hand (don't be fooled they changed their name to Kinetic after that lawsuit) is intentionally engaging in blatant fraud. There is no other alternative to the reasoning of the very different product from what is advertised, to that which is actually received. When I saw this rinky dinky TMobile Gateway destroy an upper tier Windstream version of internet, plan and modem, I realized in full that Windstream is knowingly, willfully, and aggressively engaging in fraud. False advertising, and fraud is why I do not ever plan on going back. It's like the ghetto of internet. Monday, I am letting my bill lapse, not paying those criminals at Windstream, they already ripped me along with thousands of other people off, tens of thousands of dollars over the course of a decade of inflated bills where I not once got that which I actually paid for. I don't think anyone I have ever talked to about Windstream was actually pleased with them. Everyone I have spoke to about Xfinity (Windstream fraudsters) hates them. And it's no wonder. I want some of my money back, heck with the shotty internet, I'm done with respect to any more business with Xfinity. Definitely wouldn't settle for a year of free internet, or even 10 years (because I realize Xfinity won't stay true to their word). For me TMobile Gateway for $50 which is out preforming Xfinity ($10 Internet but they charge $150 for) is downloading almost 8 times faster, uploading 3 times faster than windstream. Plus haven't been booted off any!
