I have not had any trouble with Truvista Fiber's service here in Toccoa, other than some weather related problems a couple of times & of course, they have NO control of the weather! My internet speed is exactly as promised & exactly what I am paying for, which is more than I can say for the horrible service I had from a previous provider!!

Truvista Fiber has been a great internet provider for us. We waited to have fiberoptic internet on our road for years and had the only other available provider, Windstream, prior to Truvista Fiber's installation of fiberoptic down our road. Our internet has gone out just one time in the two years that we've been with them which is incredible because
SARAH H.
I had my service updgraded today, the tech was Cory. Cory did a great job in record time, thank you Cory.
RAY M.
Just moved out and needed some reliable and affordale internet. The installation was fast and I had no real problems with the workers. I was also notified when an early installation date was available. I was out of town so I had to pass on it but I did like that they were keeping track of where the tech guys were on there route and if they got a cancellation abd could get to me sooner

Roy Matthews, the Truvista Fiber tech, called to make sure I was home before he came. He was very courteous and did a quick and efficent job of connecting me to the internet.

Robert did a fantastic job on our new security system install. He went above and beyond to take the time to explain throughly all the products and how it functions. Very professional and made sure cleaned up all trash and tools when he was finished. 10/10 experience. Extremely friendly and conversational through the entire process.

Thank y’all for keeping me in the loop as well as all the great work y’all did to help this new install. I did our Welcome call and spoke to Ben. He and his wife are very happy they switched to us.
