Uverse TV video quality is horrible compared to DirecTV along with their menus (guide & DVR). They are slow and feels like they are 10 years behind versus the more responsive & organized DirecTV menus. Internet is steady and dependable, but much slower than Comcast. I pay for the 12mb speed and sometimes I have a 1mb download speed. Only once have I tested it and be around 12mb. Honestly, my Clear Internet I use for the store is much faster and just as dependable.

    The biggest complaint about Uverse is you can only stream 4 lines at one time. So say you have 3 TV's running at one time. You then can only record one item while the other 3 are running...to make 4 total. Once a second program kicks in to record, one of the TV's will be knocked off and told to delete one of the recordings to continue watching TV.

    IMO, do not use Uverse. I am personally switching back to DirecTV and either Clear or Comcast for internet. It is more money, but well worth it.

    I saw MANY reviews that read almost verbatim to this one and it has me hesitant. There is a lot I do like about Uverse, especially the price, but all he reviews of CS and complaints about picture quality scare me. I may just cut off the cable and go back to directv. I despise them, but I despise Comcast also, so I guess it is a wash.
