In 1941, Arthur Long purchased the exchanges of Sergeant Bluff, Salix and Sloan, Iowa with the mortgage on farm ground left to him after his father's death, which he renamed Northwest Iowa Telephone.
For the next 30 years, telephone operators provided services from call connections to long distance calculations by hand to dispatching firemen to local fires and providing custom calling features such as call forwarding and call alert.

Just tried calling because of no internet. After pressing 1 for technical support, the recorded message said "the party you have dialed is on the phone, goodbye" and hung up.Report
8/17/2021 - Internet dropped again. Called in and got to a tech reasonably quick, Joel I think. All I got was a name and he asked how he could help. Explained no internet and he did not reply. About 10 seconds of silence and I was 'disconnected. Horrible service continues. If there was a better option in town, I would switch in a heart beat.
I see a lot of negative reviews with longlines, and we much prefer it over sparklight which we thought was just crummy service. We pay $75 a month which is way cheaper than what we were paying sparklight. We have a fast downloads, my kids and my husband can all be streaming movies or playing online games at the same time with no interruptions. We do use our own router I'm not sure if that makes a difference or not, but we think it's good service.Report
We pay for the 2nd most expensive package since we play a lot of games. Not only is signal spotty, it cuts out frequently. The upload and download speed is incredibly slow even if you're directly hooked up or connected to the box itself. On top of that, there seems to be outages all the time. The representatives are very polite and professional when you ask for help, but at the end of the day there's not much they can do to fix the terrible internet quality they offer.Report
don't get your internet here it is absolutely horrible. I asked them to come help fix my internet since it was freezing a lot, and they came and fiddled with my internet box, and when they left I tested it out and my internet is even worse than it was before. If you need internet service, don't ever come here.Report
