Frontier Communications (NASDAQ:FYBR) added 75,000 fiber broadband customers in the fourth quarter of 2022, marking the largest quarterly increase to date.
Fiber broadband customer additions outpaced copper broadband customer losses for the fifth consecutive quarter, resulting in 8,000 total broadband customer net additions in the fourth quarter. The communications provider ended 2022 with 17% more fiber broadband customers than it had at the end of 2021. CFO Scott Beasley said: "We continue to outpace our cable competitors, gaining share in nearly every geography we operate in. Our new position as the ‘un-cable’ provider is taking hold. We are bringing customers a superior product and it is paying off in record broadband customer growth."

You think these fools are "performance based" lol? But yes, the union mafia protects the field wire strippers and others. Because without the unions.. most of them couldn't hold a job flipping burgers
Sure buddy, techs all around the country decided to do bad work all of the sudden to stick it to the big guys. Management has nothing to do with it.haha.

The lack of education of the people on here amazes me. 75,000 is a NET number (new customers minus leaving customers). Clear?
I call your "education" BS, like your/their "Net" number.
The only job security around here given to the lazy managers/vp/dir
Whose jobs are performance based and the they have no corrupt Union to protect them when they don't perform. Unlike many on here who complain and moan but are lazy, old and negative but know they can rely on the Union to protect them even if their performance sucks.
Bankruptcy in 2020, another one in 2025. 75,000 new subscribers, I call BS more likely "out" orders and "in" orders written for the same customer to make it look like there are new subscribers. They never say how many people left Frontier

Obviously the 2 people who said we are doing great are members of management. Choosing to ignore the massive issues Frontier has. This company will never get better until management takes their heads out of the sand and actually address all these issues. It’s obvious they don’t care Nick and all his cronies are just here to collect their massive bonuses then jump ship like every other executive team this company has had
Not true, I've been a Tech here for years and I've never seen our overall performance be so good. Of course there are issues, but from where I stand I can see things improving weekly. Sounds like so many here don't even want their own company to succeed - I simply can't understand that mentality .

As in we're MASSIVELY understaffed and the few US based employees we have left are all overwhelmed. We're only hiring cheap contractors and sl@ve labor overseas. The training is embarrassing and "leadership" is even worse. Things are constantly breaking, and most equipment is out dated.

I hope investors know how terrible things are actually running around here.
As in growing faster than the cable industry, delivering a turn-around, creating the digital infrastructure this country needs and quarter over quarter improved financial and operational performance? Yeah, they know. As do I and I've been here many many years, difference is I can read our results and see the difference day in day out on the ground. What is it with you all on here that just don't seem able to understand?
The second best performing telco stock in the US, after T-Mobile. Fact.
Lots of us don't like the changes going on around here, why would we. I'm old, been here years and just wish with all my heart I could go back to the good old days of manual systems, masses of expensive unionized techs, low work loads, big budgets etc etc. But the world has moved on and I know it. And for one I am proud to be part of this company now, we're changing, yes, but we're competing and winning. My honest advice to you all here is either get with the new company direction or ship on out (as I will do as soon as I can retire), why make your lives painful when the direction is clear and is working.

That's what you get when you order tech support from wish.
But they won’t retain those customers with the massive failings in customer service, tech support, and the half a$$ installs and cheap equipment we use. Just ask the retention group. Nick wants to try to dazzle you with trumped up numbers meanwhile he is not addressing any of the glaring inadequacies within the company. Lack of training, using low skill overseas support, systems that crash daily, cutting corners is the frontier way
