CenturyLink

American telecom company

CenturyLink is an American telecommunications company providing internet, phone, and television services, primarily to rural and suburban areas.

The company rebranded as Lumen Technologies in 2020 but retains CenturyLink for residential services.

My CenturyLink bill went up again.

The name often appears in complaints about slow rural internet options.
