Now that the day has arrived, the question remains: Has internet been restored to all customers in Anderson, Greenville and Spartanburg?

According to Spectrum's 10 a.m. update, “The vast majority of our customers impacted by Hurricane Helene will have services restored no later than Monday, October 21st.” Repairs to our network have been completed in many counties in North and South Carolina, and we remain committed to restoring connectivity as quickly as possible.”

Here's how many are still without power on Monday.
