$45 per month AT&T "Sonic.net has awesome customer service" "Nothing so far" "We had several issues getting set up with Sonic.net dsl. Customer service was able to quickly resolve and address all of them."

I recently moved to a new apartment and decided to try out Sonic.net as an ISP. Previously we had had AT&T dsl and I was sick of their lousy customer service. Upon calling Sonic.net, I was immediately connected with a knowledgeable sales person who helped us get the ball rolling. After a couple days, we had our service turned on but the modem was not able to synch up. I called the customer service and was able to speak with a person on the phone in no time at all. No dumb automated menu system that takes forever to navigate. Nope--just a person on the other end of the phone and from the sounds of it located in the Bay Area. Awesome.
They were able to schedule a representative from AT&T to come by and fix the issue within 3 days of the call. Afterwards we were able to connect to the Internet but were experiencing frequent drops in service. Again I was able to connect with a knowledgeable support person who gave me a couple ideas on how to improve the connection. He also mentioned that a new modem might resolve the issue. I was willing to give it a shot and after 3-4 days we received the new modem in the mail. I got it set up shortly and ever since have experienced a higher downstream and no loss of connectivity.
I am thoroughly impressed with the customer service representatives. Not only are they a pleasure to call but the person actually knew what he was talking about and was able to resolve my issue. This is the exact opposite from my experience with AT&T.
I could not be a happier customer. Sonic.net provides great Internet service at the same price as AT&T and with much better service. I see no reason to choose AT&T over them. Outstanding company.
