Rhonda Brasington

I’ve got Rivernet now, and I love it. It’s so much better. ... I feel that I’m a member, I’m not a number. I really feel like they care about their co-op members and whatever goes on.

I had a problem with the lines and they came and corrected that. Anything I need, I call, they send somebody round. We get good service from them.
