I have been with slingshot from the begining. Over the years they have become a greedy poorly run outfit.
Pros
None
Cons
Customer service is the worst. They do not consider older people at all.

Overall a satisfactory experience with these guys, just returning to my original provider for a bit.
Pros
Great customer service. Good introductory deal although it wasn't implemented properly and took some pushing on my part to get the terms that were originally offered.
Cons
A little punitive towards late payments.

Worst fucking experience ever, speed issues and lack of fluent english speaking support team, tech dept that are not qualified techs that re-site scripted excuses from chorus manifest, this stretches to all the 2 vocus internet brands (Orcon, Slingshot) vocus is more focus on $$$ with all its vocus brands (Orcon, Slingshot, Flip, 2Talk and Switch Utilities) than it is about customers
Pros
Best Pro for this was the day I left.
No dont use them, sucker low prices advertisement is a gimic
Cons
Customer service is a complete joke
waiting long hours
The broken english and unqualified tech support or the tech support that located in India/Philippians/Malayasia that you can never understand
