-
WriterInfo.tk (@writerinfo) reported@lumentechco aka @CenturyLink and @quantumfiber excel in bad customer service. Email to my client says: "Beginning in October 2025, your CenturyLink internet service will be upgraded to Quantum Fiber . . . " Part of the "upgrade" is this: "If you have a value-added service, it will be removed from your account before your internet service moves to Quantum Fiber. Value-added services include Static IP, Personal TechPro, and Inside Wire Protection." Yea, right, removing Static IP etc is an upgrade? Liars.

Cia Watson (@ciawatson) reported@ShawnSmith1776 I had a similar experience with CenturyLink, it was impossible to get a real person on the phone even though it said I could say some particular word to get one. I did get my issue resolved through a DM on here. Thankfully.

Filthy Patriot (@filthypatriot) reported@CenturyLink Hey @quantumfiber @ATT Centurylink says this is your fault. Your tech support keeps telling me it is Centurylink. ATT bought my libes from Centurylink. Att has some type of cap on my fiber service. Care to fix it so I receive the service I pay for?

garborg (@garborg) reported@CenturyLink It's been over 3 days. Why is a VPN required to stop packet loss out of PHX on your network??
-
c21b16a (@photodesign) reportedOur @CenturyLink @quantumfiber went down weeks ago, was not fixed by a tech visit, and will not be looked at again for week, apparently. Catastrophic for remote workers like me. In the meantime we got very nice 5G home internet from @TMobile - so fast and easy, may just keep it.

Brenda Shelton (@sincitybren) reported@CenturyLink Don’t pretend to care about elderly. Parkinson’s elderly mom has been waiting for tech to fix landline phone, nobody shows up need landline for 911 calls when she falls. Pissed off in Vegas

🆘🇺🇸🦋🌿April 🦋🌿🆘🇺🇸 (@storieland) reported@CenturyLink how do I get help connecting my DirectTV box to my TV?
-
Republican Farmer (@republicanfarm1) reported@MensHumor I once didn't have the money to pay my internet bill, so I divided the tested speed by the promised speed, and paid that fraction. I think I paid about $0.20 on a $40 bill. @CenturyLink sucks.
-
Evans (@G16283) reported@ATT The same slow internet issue (<20Mbps) occurred in the zip code 89179 on 3/7 and 3/8/26 between 7pm and 10pm. That makes it four days. There are many complaints posted on Next door and other social sites. #QuantumFiber #CenturyLink

Öld Nick 999 - Twitch streamer (@OldNick999) reportedAnother stream gone to hell! **** you, @CenturyLink! I’m looking for another provider!
-
LetsMakeBadDecisions (@LtsMkBdDcns) reported@Ask_Spectrum How does my 97 soon to be 98 yearnold grandma change her service from a 25$ land line plan from centurylink to spectrum. Gets a cable modem, phone line and when we are inquiring about the dollar amount I can't get an answer.
-
FlatlandVT (@flatland_fpv) reported@CenturyLink With all due respect, you’ve had 4 “chat” conversations with my wife and I, told us in each our connection was “good” while it continued to drop, cancelled multiple tech appointments and our current appointment is a week out after the issues started. $80 to get 23Mbs is a joke!
-
Bri✨ (@MartinezGoddess) reported@CenturyLink your customer service ******* sucks and my WiFi is down on MY WEEKEND. Cannot wait to switch service
-
Pretty hate machine (@hotheyylien) reported@dkdynamite1 @XfinitySupport Worst ISP in the entire US right next to centurylink. You should have switched long ago
-
Mike Schear (@mike_schear) reported@CenturyLink you seem to be having widespread problems in Southwest Las Vegas. Your website has no way to report and outage and your automated phone system just hangs up because it's agreed business hours. You really need to rethink your support.
-
Smooth_operator (@mikeeeeeekeith) reported@Lowkeyy_5020 @CenturyLink Man I done switched from Xfinity too finna try this new wifi they got because ain’t no way my **** wifi messing up mid show.
-
Michael Larrabee (@craftsmanml) reported@CenturyLink When will emails be fixed? My outgoing emails are not working on our cellphones. Customer service has been zero! I was online with a Verizon technician; you told us there is no tech support! Is there a number I can call to talk to a live person?
-
Road (@Roman76Warrior) reported@CenturyLink @CoxHelp @Verizon how long does it take your company to address Internet problems? Do we have to switch?
-
Patriot Girl (@fair368617) reported@CenturyLink Interesting. I have to use social media to get help?! You are frauds. The exec team is horrible, incompetent castoffs from other companies. I'm shopping for better companies. GROSSLY INCOMPETENT.

drknessnlight (@mcus04) reportedI cannot stand @CenturyLink! They are my only internet option so they decided it was okay to deliver sub-par service at a premium and have the nerve to charge a $150 install fee knowing I can't get around it. If I lose my remote job over your service, you will hear about it.
-
CenturyLink (@CenturyLink) reported@RidetoShredPow Sorry you’re unable to stream #thepitt right now. We understand how frustrating that must be. Please DM us your complete service address so we can check what’s going on with your CenturyLink connection and help get this resolved quickly. -Ansh
-
Me (@thatdaniliff) reported@CenturyLink / @quantumfiber can change their name as many times as they’d like but their fiber internet is just garbage. It just stops working constantly and they always say it looks fine to them *from their call center that isn’t at my house*
-
Davey Bangz (@DoubleDsOnDeck1) reportedBe careful with @CenturyLink they went into my girls house yesterday when only her 14 year old son was home to fix **** and then proceeded to talk about killing her service animal who was locked up in the kennel cuz she was growling like a dog does when random people come in.
-
Zach Christopherson (@zach_data) reported@CenturyLink no internet after a windstorm in 98065. Any ETA on resolution?
-
Anne the Ambivalent (@0ndineAnne) reported@CenturyLink I got a new ISP because CenturyLink was overcharging me on price for life. I’m unable to contact anyone by phone or online to cancel CenturyLink. How do I send back your equipment? Tell me how I can cancel and get boxes to send your equipment back.

Patriot Girl (@fair368617) reportedLumens Techn/CenturyLink is the WORST provider EVER. I have been a Centurylink Cust for 20+ yrs. Since Lumens took over, 2023, Katie Johnson, CEO, the service has dived. The comp is in India, & agents barely speak Eng. Can get help through email, email unavailable. DO NOT INVEST
