. . and it worked quite well. One of my clients has AT&T DSL and they spent over a week without essential Internet service (couldn't clear credit cards) while incompetent AT&T techs tried to get it working.

I'm on Spectrum Business now (cable), but they're a couple blocks outside Spectrum service.

We had an outage here when AT&T's drop cable came down. I found you could not contact AT&T service on a Sunday, not even their robot. It took days for a tech to come out. Their robot doesn't take any information, so he was unprepared and had to wait for others. A Spectrum guy came out to have a look while they were stringing wire.

Spectrum got everything ready, but AT&T screwed up transferring phone numbers, more than twice, but we finally got it transferred a week and a half later. I have had one Spectrum service failure. It didn't come back up right away, so I did my grocery shopping and it was back by time I returned.

AT&T keeps calling me telling me about how much better their service is than Spectrum, and I just tell them "No freaking way in Hell".
