I really like GCI's customer service. I also like how they have a warning when you are reaching your internet limit, which saves me money.

We have more outages than I would expect. We probably call at least once a month to get the box reset and have also had to replace our box a few times a year. The reps are pleasant, but it is still a nuisance to get things working each time. I'm not sure about the price/value as they are the only cable company available.
