Anyone ever have an issue with Comcast?
The fun part about having a couple of days at home and waiting out a hurricane is that you get free time to think about little things that annoy you.

The bug for me right now is with Comcast....I won't bore everyone with the TLDR details....Just suffice to say I have been waiting 2 weeks for my installation. Now I have been pushed back an additional week....I am at the point where I am about to cancel the installation and check out DirecTV and AT&T Uverse.

Anyone ever have issues like this with Comcast?

See....I would disagree with this. I had Time Warner Internet for 7 years and was pleased with it. The price I was paying for the Triple play package for the Comcast package they have yet to install but are billing me for is about the same price as the Triple Play package I had with Time Warner.

Just wait until you get it installed. Then the fun starts. I use them for internet only and have DirecTV for tv. The Comcast router or modem essentially blocks my smart tv and DTV receiver from connecting to the internet. I suspect it is because I use the tv to stream Netflix and the receiver to stream DTV on demand programs. Directv says it's a problem with the ISP and Comcast says it's a problem with my DTV receiver. Meanwhile I'm stuck without being able to use several devices. My alternative is 1.5 Mbps DSL.

That's like asking "Has anyone woken up with a boner?"

Two of the houses I own I have Time Warner and Comcast. I have the exact same TV + Internet + sports package.

Comcast's internet is not only 70% faster, but it costs $110 a month compared to $173 with Time Warner. Olathe and Shawnee area.

They just jacked up my monthly bill I got in the mail today by $30. I'm thinking about switching to Uverse and cutting my bill in half. My problem is the 2 year agreement, less channels and no NFL network. Anyone have AT&T? I had them for phone at one time and it was a nightmare when I cancelled.

I will just say our combo of Google Fiber $50+ $30 PlayStation Vue + Rabbit Ears has been incredible.

Cellphone users watched with dismay in recent years as unlimited data plans became nearly extinct, thanks to the growing demand for video. Now, many Twin Cities residents will see data caps coming to their internet service, too.

Comcast, in an e-mail to customers Thursday night, said it will place a limit on internet data use for its residential customers in Minnesota, starting Nov. 1.

The good news, for most customers, is that limit is high — 1 terabyte a month. Comcast says that’s enough for 600 hours of high-definition video or 12,000 hours of online gaming. Less than 1 percent of Comcast’s customers use that much in a month.

But that may not hold true for long. The American appetite for more internet data has been insatiable, with the newest data hog being 4K, or Ultra HD, video.

For serious online gamers or 4K video streamers, unlimited data is still available — for $50 more a month.

Otherwise, what happens if you go over 1 terabyte in a month? Comcast will charge you $10 for every 50 gigabytes over the limit, up to a maximum of $200.

Comcast said it’s rolling out new online tools for customers to track their data use.

The cable company has been testing data limits in some markets, mostly in the Southeast, since last year. Now it’s rolling them out to most of the rest of its U.S. markets.

The data caps don’t apply to Comcast’s business customers or to residential customers with Gigabit Pro or prepaid service plans.




SCORE!!!!!!!!!!

It's all market specific. Here I get 200+ Mb/s for $60 through Time Warner. I can't complain.

Well....here we are a week later and still no cable or internet!! Funny....Comcast just got hit with a $2M fine by the FCC and promised to clean up it's act but I don't see any of that with how they are dealing with me.

I have typed up a letter to the FCC Enforcement Chief whose name appeared in the article copying the local BBB and the local county government who I believe actually licenses Comcast to do business in our area. If my visit to the local store today isn't fruitful I will send it from my buddy's Internet connection down the road.

Probably won't fix anything but might make me feel better.

i have only had 1 problem with comcast in the last 3 years, but once i explained it to them it was all corrected. Outside of that, they give me killer deals. 100mb internet, tv with the sports package and free hbo for 128 bucks a month. Thats not bad at all. I was paying 118 for direct tv alone before this.

Should have said- has anyone Not been ripped off by the criminals at Comcast?

I would never use their service ever again- they are horrible.

Their top scams include:

1. Charging huge amounts of money for equipment that customer turns in. "Sorry our records indicate you never returned your cable box."

2. Hyper billing- sending monthly notices out with only a week to pay-then adding late charges on your bill.

3, Telling customers they will remove over-charged items on your account-then not doing it. They then add more fees and taxes onto the charges you should have never been charged with in the first place.

4, Terrible customer service-especially when dealing with added charges and sudden increases in your monthly bill. See item 6.

5. Telling customers they will get a Free install-then billing large amounts a month later-claiming the Free install did not count toward your services.

6. Keeping customers on a merry-go- round with horrible customer service idiots and bad elevator music - hoping you will just get pissed and go ahead and pay the over charges on you account.

I am sure there are a lot more- this is just what they did to me.

This is the last option cable companies have to hold onto their monopoly with all the new options for streaming video. But as internet options begin to increase like video options already have, it will just drive people away from these crooks the second they have a chance. I'm curious to see what will happen to the companies that have stuck to this old model.

Maybe that's just me being optimistic. Living in Google Fiber country has drastically changed the landscape. And has proven that everything the cable companies have said for the last decade is a flat-out lie.
