How Mediacom compares to the competition
Mediacom seems like a steal for the first 12 months when we compare its Gigabit plan to similar ones from Xfinity, AT&T, and WOW! But after a year it becomes the most expensive of the four, costing up to $139.99 per month, depending on where you live. Plus, Mediacom has data caps you can’t remove with an additional fee like with Xfinity.
In our latest customer satisfaction survey, Mediacom ranks thirteenth out of 15 internet providers, placing it behind AT&T, WOW!, and Xfinity in overall satisfaction. It also ranks thirteenth in customer service and reliability, while its best ranking is eleventh for speed satisfaction. In contrast, Xfinity has the best speed score of the four in our survey, followed by AT&T.
