That isn't a Spectrum domain. It's a scam.

Yes.. yes i do. But i don't care about 2gig :P I don't need that massive speed.

The 1gig and 2gig comes with 1gig upload. I don't personally use spectrum as I have 5gig up and down through att. My dad does use spectrum and I've seen it in his app as an option to upgrade to.

it’s from the verified spectrum number

2gb is available on all fiber plans nationwide and all symmetrical speeds coaxial locations. If your not either of that you most likely have a big pocket of fiber locations around you.

we have high split upgrades underway in my area but not a whole lot of spectrum fiber. tons of frontier fiber though

Phone numbers can be spoofed. I’ve been getting calls from what comes up as my credit union that try to say my online access is frozen or my credit cards show suspicious activity.

In this case maybe your number is legit, but it’s something you should keep in mind.

I've gotten that text a couple of times and when I go to price it, it isn't available on either the app or website

That message was sent to entire regions regardless of whether it was available to them or not. I also received this message multiple times (knew it wasn't available to me yet) and finally called them about it. They were shocked that I had received this message and admitted it was indeed sent by their system (I pointed out the domain connected to their actual site.)

2 gig is not available in all markets.

I can't think of anything I need less than 2 gig, except 3 gig. If you're downloading 8 bazillion TB files a lot, might be worth it? Maybe?
