User Reviews
We’ve been with Spectrum for about nine years, excellent reception and customer service. Unfortunately Spectrum did not offer our community a new contract so within a few months, we will be forced to go back to FIOS. Not as good as Spectrum.
I really like your interactive radar especially the history/present time view and the projected one time forecast which in my location have proven to be remarkedly reliable. Great job!
I always check the incredible accomplishments of Mayor Mamdani.
Slightly Better than fake news and no irritating ads. And you get local weather. The app has a simple clean layout and is a breeze to use. The best I have found. Thanks Spectrum.
Really enjoying this app…excellent articles and news stories.
One of my all-time favorite television channels is Mornings on One. Simple, local news, clear, and easy to take in - a great way to start the day
Tampa Bay Rays
I Check for reviews often
Spectrum costs too much. Spectrum did a software update in the middle of snowstorm leaving people without tv, phone, basically stranded for hours. Little respect for senior citizens
Love you man
