CenturyLink has been extremely reliable but I have fiber optic to the house. Those in areas serviced by the older DSL technology (phone and internet over copper) instead of fiber may have different experiences.

I left Century Link a year ago due to lots of issues and I never felt their on-site techs knew what they were doing and felt I got the run-around. Someone here posted: Century link has "a $45 a month for life at 25mbps which we started on." That's what I think I paid with them before, includ'g phone, but before calling them I have to ask: Are people really happy with Century Link now??
