    I love working with Skynet. Hands down, Skynet provides the complete package when it comes to internet and phone service. Skynet has developed a one-stop-shop that includes amazing customer service, internet, phone and tv. As a consumer, I have learned over the years, you get what you pay for and I highly value customer service and follow-through. Skynet has a team of employees that is professional, reliable, knowledgeable and takes their time to be sure the customer’s needs are met. I have been a Skynet customer at home since 2003 and switched my employer to Skynet when I started three years ago. Whether it is home or business, and regardless the circumstance, Skynet provides exceptional service at all levels and has reliable deliverables.
