Like calling India for tech support? Try BellSouth.

by phungus Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Oct 27 '06
Pros: Solid connection speeds
Cons: Outsources jobs to foreign countries
I recently moved into a new home and due to a miscommunication with the realtor, at the last minute I discovered that my Cable modem service would not be available at the new house. I quickly set up a Gmail account and transferred all my important ...

I Like My Baby Bell

by geovolt , Feb 28 '01
Pros: 5 mail boxes, cheap, convenient billing, local
Cons: tech support not par, connection sometimes hangs
I've written several reviews on dial up ISP's, this will be the first I'll have written while actually using the service. BellSouth is of course, the Southeastern US branch of Bell Communications. I live in Tennessee, thus, BellSouth is my phone...

Nothing but Trouble

by Debbie26 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 07 '00
Pros: None
Cons: bad customer service relations, poor connection speed and quality, not worth the price
Bellsouth was my first choice for an internet service provider. I have my phone service through them and I felt since they were a local company I would get better customer service. All I got out of this internet service provider was big time...

Bell South - Specialized vs. Baby Bell - still some homework

by 401402 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 04 '00
Pros: Reliable, fast
Cons: Expensive, all no free extra's, no creative goodies
ISP’s are only as good as their connection, line speed and accessibility! Because: this is what they do, what you expect and pay for, right? On top of that you always get some nice features and goodies.

Well, if there is a local or regional...

I've taken my buisness elsewhere

by tag_1234 , Apr 14 '00
Pros: none really
Cons: slow, lots of disconnects, laggy, bad compared to other ISPs, poor service
What do you look for in an ISP? I look for service, reliability, high connection speeds and a good price. Ease of use is also a bonus. The problem with this is that the internet itself is large, unpredictable, slow and fairly expensive to run. These...

Price was my grab, but I agree it may all be area

by allenent , Dec 06 '00
Pros: cost, newness, 24/7 tech support
Cons: webspace url, newness (may wear off)
$12.95 a month...why not!

I've tried a few....free isp's, nationwide isp's, and local isp's.
Winfire, Freei, Earthlink, AOL, Sabernet, Quixnet, Henderson Online, and Northcoast Internet - I think that covers it.

They all have...

BELLSOUTH.net: Perfect, if you don't want to surf the net...

by Cutie_pi Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 12 '00
Pros: Simple billing: receive one bill for local, long distance and Internet Access
Cons: SLOW! Couldn't access away from home; E-mail problems; Lousy tech support
Let me begin by saying...
I would highly recommend Bellsouth.net to anyone who really has no desire to surf the net... or send and receive e-mail, or read newsgroups...

When I first decided to surf the information highway, 4...

Mediocre At Best

by lumiere957 , Jan 13 '00
Pros: Offers high speed access DSL service
Cons: Slow connection speeds, DSL service is a little costly
I have been using BellSouth.net for almost a year now and am not at all impressed. My feelings for it are best described as luke warm. The software is easy to load to get you set-up. I can't recall ever having gotten a busy signal when trying to...

Cons: .....hmmmmmmmmm
Where to begin...

I started surfin' using AOL and wound up hating it. With the lock-outs (aaargh how i remember that old "good-bye"...), the techies who wouldn't answer my questions, etc. Well, I switched to bellsouth.net and found...

Is it better than what you left?

by lyric1 , Apr 24 '00
Pros: easy setup, good tech support, pay when you pay your phone bill
Cons: lack of online support
When judging an ISP I think it's important to remember that most people are going to base their opinion on the one they just left. I went from Earthlink to Bellsouth in 1998 and I tend to see the shortcomings of my present ISP when compared to my former...

BellSouth ISP

by bwestman Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 12 '00
Pros: Phone bill billing
Cons: Everything else about it
When I started looking for a new ISP, I thought "I access the internet via phone line, BellSouth is the phone company, should be great!" Right? Wrong. Great was not one of the words that immediately came to mind regarding my experience will...

A Good Value for My Money

by TeachEm2 , Jan 24 '00
Pros: cost, length of time you can stay connected, email almost always working, good connect speeds
Cons: none at this time
I have been with Bellsouth.net for almost three years now. At first, I was like many people who've written opinions here about Bellsouth.net. I was disappointed. I was getting low connect rates, booted offline, and all sorts of general problems with...

HellSouth is more like it

by motay , Jul 07 '00
Pros: Bills to your phone bill instead of a credit card
Cons: too many to list in this space!! :(
I was perfectly happy with my ISP until they merged with another company that I don't particularly like so I decided to look around for another one. We got some information in our phone bill about Bellsouth.net and the price was right so we decided to...

Look For Someone Else.....

by Cathalain , Jan 04 '01
Pros: Customer service is helpful, although not well informed...
Cons: 26K is simply NOT acceptable in this day and age.
My husband had always used BellSouth Internet after he had dumped AOL in the fall of '98. When I moved to Atlanta, I decided to sign on through his service, and I'm frankly sorry that I did.

First of all, it's slow. It's unbelievably slow....
