connection problems, no refund
We had Comcast for 2 years, they supplied our cable phone and internet. We started experiencing problems with our phone service right away. Our phone would go out for hours at a time we were unable to receive and make calls. When I contacted them from a payphone I would sit on hold forever to be told that they ran a check and yes it does not seem to be functioning properly. After the call my phone would start working again for anywhere from 1 month to a week. About a month ago I had a vacation planned and need to confirm my hotel and flight, My husband was also driving a crappy car because our good car broke down, my husband had my cell phone in case he broke down he could call me to go get him. That morning my phone went out and when I called them yet again they told me they wouldn't be able to fix it for 24 hours I explained that it was very important that it get taken care of right away. I was told that it was unlikely that it would be taking care of that day but If they were able to get a tech out they would call me. I again explained to her my phone didnt work. After some choice words I told her to just disconnect my service.
After we returned back from vacation my phone was working . I called and switched service to a different co. I was told I would receive a refund from the time my service was out and also for the time I had already paid for, I was told by the rep. that it was $91.54. Today I received a check for $41 when I contacted them I was told that the discount for when my phone was not working was not in the computer and since I no longer had their service they were unable to issue the refund.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.

Cable Television and Internet Services
Comcast Cable
Office located at:
1255 West North Ave.
Chicago, IL 60622
[protected]
My home (apartment) currently does not have cable tv/internet services and I am trying to purchase a plan from this company. I've called the office three times and each time they have told me that my apartment already has service and the account is under another tenant's name. This means that they cannot set up an account for me. With the first two calls they told me that someone would call me. They never did. The third time -- just a little while ago -- I told them that I was considering contacting the Better Business Bureau and they just hung up.
Comcast account setup is a really pain in the ###. No one knows in the Comcast what are their duties of the work and they are working on sylos...I just called 15 times to different 800..it is really a pain...and only comcast has a monopoly in US. they have the right to do anything...
comcast & credit protection association
I recently checked my credit report and much to my surprise, I have an unpaid $85.00 bill from Comcast listed under collection by Credit Protection Association. I never received a bill, nor did I receive a collection notice. I contacted Comcast and they couldn't find the information. I contacted Credit Protection Association by email and they never responded. I tried contacting them by phone, but could not reach anyone without an account number, which I never received. I disputed the information on my credit report and it came back that they were still trying to collect from me. Had I known I had a bill in the first place I would've paid it. Here I am 6 months later, trying to resolve this and neither company wants my money or is willing to help me pay the debt. It's ridiculous. Unknown to me, Comcast billed me, then sent it to a collection agency. Now the collection agency is unwilling to collect. And over $85.00 I have a negative mark on my credit!
I was tired of being ripped off by comcast, so I decided to go with a satellite network. For two months I tried calling Comcast telling them to disconnect me because I no longer wanted their so called service. Every time I called the local office I would get a recording that they were busy taking care of valued customers and to call back later. I did not have the time to take off work and go in person to the office to tell them I did not want to be their customer. Finally after two months and a letter to Comcast main headquarters I was disconnected. I was billed for two months of service that they refused to disconnect me. The next thing I know I get notice from Credit Protection Agency that I owe $118.00. Now I am bombarded by comcast wanting to offer me great deals because I am a valued customer.
My message to comcast is GET REAL I will do without before I become your valued customer.
total lack of customer service
We are incredibly frustrated with Comcast's total lack of customer service and their inability to finish jobs they started! Here is a copy of our recent email to our county councilman:
Mr. Knapp,
Hopefully you can help us get Comcast out here to finish what they started nearly one month ago!
Over three weeks ago, a Comcast truck was seen in front of our house in Gaithersburg, laying a cable line in our front yard. When we returned later, the line had been left unburied, running through our front yard, and hooking up to an OPEN green (electrical?) box. The line is STILL there, despite numerous phone calls to Comcast, and the box is still wide open.
When we first called, Comcast promised us an 'appointment' last Monday, June 4th. Why we needed to schedule them to come out here to bury the line they laid is quite beyond us. They never showed up. When we called again, they said they had no record of the Monday appointment.
We're at the point of wanting to just slice this line running through our yard, but we're not certain it won't interrupt our own service (which had been ok, at least by typical Comcast standards ). Eventually our lawn service will likely wind up accidentally cutting the line anyway. Can you help us, please?
sorry service
Ever since I have had my service with comcast, three bundle package, I have had nothing but sorry service and their customer service is just horrible. I have had to change out my modem twice in four months and to this day I never know if it's going to be the high speed wireless connection that's down or the TV cable or the Phone. Mostly the phone is out and when the phone is out the high speed is out too.
As soon as I can make arrangements to have their service, or I should say lack of service, replaced, I will never do business with ComCast again.
l agree that comcast has gone to the DOGS!
l have been a faithful csutomer for many years
now l just feel cheated... by comcast
l paid to have service in all my rooms, now they are telling me that
l will only recieve 2-70 no HBO that use to be channel 5
but, l feel since I paid to have those line ran in the rooms, that l should
recieve all service in every room. that was the deal when l sign
my contract with comcast . l'm really am thinking about getting a
lawyer. it cost me a lot of money to get those cable line put in,
and l want my money back. if we all would just drop comcast
l bet they would stop taking there customers for granted!
can't buy own box
Well I bought their digital cable and internet since they have a special promotion but when it comes to getting a cable box for my tv, the only option that I have is to rent their box. So if I rent their box the whole time I have service with them, I'm loosing money. Other companies like Yahoo DSL or what are they now, AT&T, sells their boxes or I can just grab one from Best Buys or Fry's as an option but not Comcast. They don't sell cable box and if I buy a cable box from ebay, they told me that it doesn't work either cause the serial number that I have is not on their list. This is not fair to consumers. They're already a monopoly as it already and we are stuck with no options whatsoever. Well another option is to get a cable discrambler but that's illegal so basically Comcast wants the consumers to cheat in order to get service. I'm thinking that I'm not the only one who has this dilemma. Please help. Thank you.
Concern Citizen.
No one will answer the phone! I have a simple question about my service. I am going to switch to the dish! Ditch the box!
I am filing a complaint against Comcast Report Neg. On cridIT repoRt terry Chamblin [protected]
comcast did not inform credit protection association that payment is made
I returned my Comcast Cable boxes but still got a bill of $219 from Comcast for not returning. I paid the amount as well of $219, but they never updated Credit Protection Association about the payment. Credit Protection Association reported the amount as unpaid to Credit Reporting Companies/Beareau's. When I call Comcast now, they asked me to contact Credit...
Read full review of Comcast / Xfinity and 103 commentsthese people are idiots!
I receive my cable TV service through Buckeye Cablesystem in Toledo, Ohio. During the NHL playoffs they have been covering the Versus high def signal with The Golf Channel or so I thought. Come to find out they receive their Versus feeds through Comcast and Comcast is the one responsible. Does anyone have any idea why we are being forced to watch a stupid golf game during the NHL semi-finals. These people are idiots, and unfortunately just try to get a hold of Comcast. You can forget it. They want your money but don't want to hear from you. One thing though, I think all cable providers use the same people to train their service departments because based on what I've read about Comcasts' service department; it can also be said of Buckeye Cablesystem's service department. These people are idiots. No matter how many times or people you contact there you always get a different- wrong answer.
Comcast is nothing but idiots. Wrong information all the time. I rely on my phone and internet to be able to do my work from home job and they've already caused me to lose one job and I'm on the verge of losing another. There is no one else in my area I can use. If I listed all of their massive screw ups I'd never be finished writing this. If you are considering comcast for ANY service and there is anyone else available in your area, then avoid comcast. They have some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced, and if you have comcast you will need there customer service because there services constantly screw up. They've sent me broken modems, turned off the wrong services, hung up on me when I call in, added charges to my bills for things that don't exist, told me completely wrong info, and constantly lie. Good friggin luck if you choose comcast.
big rebate scam!
Broadband national is a big rebate scam company. I have been trying to get back my rebate for the cable and internet service with comcast. Broadband national has been giving one or the other reason for the delay in processing my rebate form and finally after 8 months they say that I submitted the wrong rebate form. I don't understand how this can happen?...
Read full review of Comcast / Xfinity and 47 commentscomcast internet is nothing but trouble!
I have had nothing but trouble since i got service through comcast. On July 6th my service was connected, but they had to have a new cable installed from the pole to my house. I was told on that day that the cable would be buried in 10 business days. It was done on Dec 4. In November i wrote a complaint to the FCC, i was sent a copy of the letter that comcast responded with stating the cable was buried on Nov 13th. I have a copy of the work order stating that it wasn't buried until 12/4/06. On 12/27 ironically I called to transfer my service to a new address since i was moving, 23 days after the cable was just buried. On 12/31/06 at 11:50pm my service went out... Go figure. I called customer service and was put on hold. Once my internet service mysteriously came back on i got online and spoke with a rep named Greg who was nothing but rude to me. He stated that since i had requested a transfer my account had been closed and he could not help me. I asked him just to reset my cable box anything to help. Nothing he outright refused to help. I asked to speak to a manager and he just stated there's not one available at this time. All of this of course while i was still on hold on the phone waiting for a rep to answer. After I thanked him for ruining my new years and making me cry he thanked me for using comcast and told me to have a great day. I'm so serious. I did some research and found comcast's corporate office and phone number along with responding to the complaint with the FCC i plan on raising cane. I also have gone with bell south and direct TV just so i don't have to deal with comcast ever again.
I just read an article from Sept 26, 2014 where Comcast promises Charlie Herrin, Senior V.P. Customer Service will fix the issues of Comcast not only having the worst customer service for cable providers but the worst customer service in for all businesses in the U.S.
This is my problem as of today, Dec 8, 2016. On Oct 20, 2016 we ordered Comcast. I was told to be home between 1-5 p.m. for the install. The tech arrived on 10/27/16 to do the install. He could not do to the pole outside our home needed a Tap. So he left without being able to tell me when 1 would be installed. I called Comcast and was told a Tap would be done and I got another install for 11/1/16. I was told to be home between 1-5 p.m. so I took another 1/2 day off of work. The tech was a No Show. No phone call or anything. I waited until 4:45 p.m. and called Comcast to see what happened speaking to Christy who had told me the Tap hadn't been installed so therefore, a tech would not have been able to do the install anyway. She said she would look into why I did not receive a phone call and she would have someone call me back to reschedule. I never heard anything. On 11/16/16, I again called Comcast and spoke to Jerry who transferred to a supervisor by the name of Justin. Justin apologized and told me he would wave the installation fees of $86.80 and $50.00 for missing 2- 1/2 days of work and look into why we were having so much trouble with the install and call me back. Which he never did. I waited until 11/21/16 and again called Comcast speaking to Denise. She promised me she was going to get to the bottom of this issue and get it resolved. She went to give me her extension #1011031 and told me if I had any future problems, to call her directly so I would not have to continue explaining our situation each time to a new operator. She put me on hold and when she came back, she told me the Tap was set up and I would be good to go for the tech to do the install. I received another automated phone call telling me to be home on 12/01/16 between 1-5 p.m. for the install. Again, I took another 1/2 day off work. Again a No Show. on 12/02/16 at 10:30 a.m. I called Comcast speaking to Michelle who I explained all of this to and asked for another supervisor. She told me her supervisor was on another call and would return my call in 15 minutes. I waited until 4:20 never hearing from her supervisor and calling Comcast back at this time. Speaking to an operator who transferred me to yet another supervisor. I explained everything to him and he told me there was nothing he could do for me other then to transfer me to sales. He was not very nice and very agitated because I wanted an explanation and he did not care to hear my concerns or the fact that at this point, I have now lost 3- 1/2 days of work and still have gotten No results or service. He again said that I must speak to sales. That he would transfer me to the appropriate sales rep. I was put on hold at 4:25 p.m. and remained on hold until 5:07 p.m. At this point, Arial took my call. I gave her my zip code and was told that she was in a different state and that I would need to speak to sales in Georgia. I was already speaking to the 1st operator as well as the supervisor in Georgia when he initially put me on hold for 42 minutes. Arial put me on hold once again at 5:08 - 5:12 p.m. Jessica in the Georgia sales department took my call. I began explaining my situation. She asked for my last four digits of S.S. # and pulled up our account. She told me she was not seeing evertything I was explaining. I gave her then our Account #. She was confused. She said that this Account was closed and another one was opened. This had me confused now. Why do we have 2 Accounts? She put me on hold for 2 minutes and returned with what she said was good news. She went on to tell me that the Tap had been installed and she would send a tech out to do the install. I told her the Tap was not installed. She said no, the computer showed that a work order had been written by the guy who supposedly did the Tap and the work order for Tap was done. I was standing outside looking at the pole and there was No Cable coming to our home. She was confused once again and put me back on hold from 5:32 p.m. - 5:38 p.m. When she returned, she told me she had sent an email to the tech who filled out the work order to see what happened and why he closed out the work order? Jessica said I would receive a phone call within 72 hours regarding this. That was on 12/02/16. Today is 12/08/16 and I am still waiting. At this point, I don't believe Comcast cares one bit about us as a new customer or the fact that I have now called a total of 8 times and lost a total of 1 1/2 days from work. Joe W. Account #'s- Ending in -02 & -03

How can Comcast hire a thief and a fraud. I've been trying to contact Comcast about this employee with negative results.

Business Class Sales/ Marketing Rep. to there Atlanta, Ga. office to improve business, with an open criminal case of 15 felonies of theft, unlawful taking and theft by deception held for trial on all 15 felonies after a indictment and a parliamentary hearing.

Comcast customer service is horrible. I donot recomend this service even to enemy. They cheated very much. Don't buy this horrible service.
Well we have the "bundle" and it all goes out often. We have had differnt persons come to our home and each one tells us something different. It is expensive to have these services(which don't work often) but no one at Comcast seems to care...WHY DOES COMCAST MAKE IT SOUND SO GOOD WHEN IT IS SOOOOOOOO BAD?
I previously had service with Time Warner and had no problems, now Comcast has taken over and I have nothing but problems. My Tv service is always going out and they tell you that it will be a week before they can send anyone out. Then the service man that comes out says that the last guy that came out did the wrong thing and that is why the service went out. Most every one I talk to in this area is having a lot of problems and it is really bad when the whole system goes down and you have to use your cell phone to call and report the problem and then they have no record of you calling.
I strongly agree. The Comcast signal and the customer service is even worse. The freelance technicians don't know what they are doing.
Time for the dish...
Glen Fisher
Hey come on now I am so tired of hearing you guys say this and that about all of these tv companies whether it be satelite, dish or cable tv. Last time I checked tv was a privilged not a right. What you guys need to do is get a life and stop watching so many tv channels. You guys chose to go with these companies and now your complaining whose fault is that really, YOUR FAULT! And also since you went from comcast to dtv do you really think that you upgraded the companies that you deal buisness with YOU ###. Look up DTV and see how many people are really satisfied. At least with comcast they try to work with you not say "F U" because we have you in a contract lik DTV. Wake up and smell the coffee you idiots and if you dont like this get "BUNNY EARS"!
Thank You,
Your friendly comcast person
I am fed up! I was tricked into "updating "my box! Now it will not work with my Tivo unit! I called and was laughed at by a man named Eric who would not give my a last name or transfer me to a supervisor!
I was told that If I anted a dvr buy one from them for a monthly fee and that my tivo will not work with it ever!
This company is SO Bad. I want everyone to call the [protected] it is corp #{a real person!} and hit the Better Biz web site also!
I agree with Debra... I had Roadrunner email with Time Warner Cable for several years until I was sold down the river to Comcast. Talk about culture shock! I have never seen such awful service. A few days before the changeover I set up a yahoo email account. I just had a feeling that there might be a problem. I was right. It took 3 weeks of non existent customer service to get my Comcast.net account set up. I then started noticing that about 7 PM each night I would have trouble sending yahoo emails. I googled a question and was directed to a site dedicated to complaints about Comcast. They were hampering my yahoo mail use as well as email of many other people. I now have another server but the Comcast email still comes up in the box when I try to send a link to someone. I've been told they can't do anything about that till the 15th. I anyone wants to instigate a class action suit against them feel free to contact me via this site.
comcast are a bunch of liars and crooks!
Warning! The latest Comcast's ad "Triple Play" is an out right lie. I ordered the service assuming I am getting Digital Cable, Digital Voice, and HS Internet. After 2 missed appointments, they finally made for the installation except the the idiot installer didn't bring a cable card like I requested when I ordered the service. So he installed the Internet and the phone which are working fine. I told him I didn't order a cable box, I ordered a cable card, and I didn't want the cable installed unless it is installed with a cable card like I requested.
I had to call Comcast again for another appointment to install the cable card. After another 2 missed appointment, they finally showed up, he installed the card but picture got worst than it was without the card, and then he finally said that he couldn't install a cable card because I don't have digital cable; I only have basic cable.
Anyway, I don't want to spend any more time on this stupid company. Bottom line, the rep. Comcast are a bunch of liers and crooks. You hear them advertise their "Triple Play", all digital services but in reality it is just a trick to get you to sign up for their lousy service.
Comcast Cable,
Alexandria, VA.
Well as you posted you wanted to get the triple play offer but you only have standard. According to your statement you have basic cable. As you said triple play offers digital service. That being said what are you complaining about. You obviously knew there was a difference you stated them above.
Crooks, maybe; but it does not sound like you were lied to. It simply sounds like you are just over dramatic. I do not agree with the way Comcast does a lot of things but you are obviously one of those people who can not be pleased even when you are aware of the situation.
never met such an incompetent bunch of people as comcast cable tv!
I have never met such an incompetent bunch of people as Comcast Cable TV. I am forever having to call them to fix their poor service in my North Dallas area. Each time I call it take at least an hour, sometimes two or three before they answer the phone. Try and order a new service and they pick the call immediately!
They can never fix the problem without an in-home visit. That just confirms to the technician that I wasn't lying and that the reception is really bad. They then go somewhere to their systems to fix the problems. Why do I have to take a day off work just so they can fix their lousy service. They never compensate me for the loss of service, even though I may be inconvenienced for up to a week.
Comcast has a monopoly in Dallas, and I am sick of it. Give them some competition and they would probably shape up.
Comcast cable TV services are a criminal organization. I called Comcast to inquire about prices. I needed to reduce my expenses. I spoke with their "Customer Account Executive" for around 2 hours. She was quite pleasant and we hit it off well. She informed me that she had been doing what she does with Comcast for two years so she wasn't a rookie. So, I enquired about the pricing for the various services and number of television sets I had. I knew they were having a promotional deal so I expected good prices, and boy did I get them. She gave me special pricing on everything. Some of the special prices were within her authority to offer. She had to get an OK from her supervisor for others. She told me that her supervisor instructed her to give me whatever pricing I wanted to get me on board. Man, I was really happy! I was going to save a ton of money! Now I didn't fall off the turnip truck last night so I asked her multiple times to verify the pricing and I kept copious notes including her name and the time of day. She informed me that if anyone gave me any trouble about the pricing I would simply need to ask them to review the recording of our conversation and it would be honored. So, guess what happened.
The pricing wasn't honored at all on my first invoice. In fact, I was paying more, not less than the previous service. So I called Comcast and explained the situation. The Comcast supervisor listened to the recording and agreed that what I was saying was correct. She then said someone from W. VA would be calling me. That never happened. I called again. Someone else listened to the recording. This one started beating around the bush and mumbling but was of no help. After that I was unable to bring the recording into the conversation. I just kept getting the old company line. "UH this is the price sir."
The way I see it they are in breach of contract. I don't plan to pay them a nickel. I will just notify them to come and pick up their stuff. What a rip. Where are the bureaucrats that are supposed to watchdog these guys?
Hey come on now I am so tired of hearing you guys say this and that about all of these tv companies whether it be satelite, dish or cable tv. Last time I checked tv was a privilged not a right. What you guys need to do is get a life and stop watching so many tv channels. You guys chose to go with these companies and now your complaining whose fault is that really, YOUR FAULT! And also since you went from comcast to dtv do you really think that you upgraded the companies that you deal buisness with YOU ###. Look up DTV and see how many people are really satisfied. At least with comcast they try to work with you not say "F U" because we have you in a contract lik DTV. Wake up and smell the coffee you idiots and if you dont like this get "BUNNY EARS"!
Thank You,
Your friendly comcast person
I stumbled across this website along with a dozen others when I entered " I hate Comcast" into google. I'm sure my comcast saga rates right up there. The whole story is on my myspace page (bellachica) but to make a long story short- The tech was supposed to come out on a Thursday at 8am. 11am comes around still no tech. He calls at 11:30 apologizing cuz he is late and says he'll be there at 12. I said ok, no problem but I have to leave for work at 1:20. 12 rolls around, no tech. 12:30 rolls around STILL no tech. So I call and reschedule for saturday. No big deal, whatever. Well 1pm rolls around and who should roll into my driveway? the wayward comcast tech. I told him sorry that he made the trip all the way out here, but I had already called to reschedule because he was 5 hours late and I had to go to work. He was actually decent, and couldn't stop apologising. He said he could have my dsl cable hooked up in 10 minutes if I wanted and the other tech could come back on saturday to hook the cable up. I was like sure go for it. So he hooks it up and I pay the $110.90 in full for my internet, digi cable and the one time installation fee. I get my work order and reciept showing that i paid in full as well.
Saturday rolls around, 8am no tech. 12pm no tech. 1pm no tech. FINALLY around 1:30 the tech rolls in, and as soon as he stepped foot out of his truck i knew it was going to be a big mistake. He started swearing right off the bat, every other word either beginning with an S, F, or GD. When he finds out that absolutly nothing has been done and he has to drill the holes, that sets him off even more because he wasnt prepared nor did he feel like drilling holes today(HIS OWN WORDS) I showed him my work order from Thursday where I had paid in FULL. So he starts swearing again, and tries to charge me an extra $85 to come in and drill holes! I was like you have got to be joking. My husband is a plumber/ construction worker. I have a freakin drill in the house. I'll drill my own holes... But I told him I refused to pay the extra money, because comcast had stated to me upfront (after I had told them that the house was NOT wired already) that it would only be the 110.90, and i showed him where I had paid in full. So he gets on the phone with his supervisor and tells him nothings wired and that i refuse to pay anymore money. I tell him thats fine. If you don't want to work and install my cable, then leave. But before you do, I want a full refund and all my money back right then and there. He proceeds to put his hand in my FACE (The talk to the hand pose) and tells me to be quiet. I was about to go off. But I composed myself and after listening to him cuss for another 5 minutes to his boss, I ask him again if he was going to instal my cable today. He tells me "If it will shut you up, then Yes, I'll do it. It's not worth the hassle." I wanted to knock his front teeth in. But I also wanted cable more.. So I let him in. While he's inside he programs the tvs room by room- but doesnt bother to tell me how to work the new remote or the cable box. So I go into one room and try to turn the tv on and off to see if the channels work. Nothing comes on. So I go and let him know (he's outside taking a personal phone call for the umpteenth time) and he storms back in the house proceeds to tell me that I broke the box. he yanks it off the table and comes back n replaces it with a new one. He then tells me to never ever ever touch the box. That I would break it. To always leave it on and to never ever ever turn it off because it would have to be reprogrammed and I wouldnt know how to do it. like I was freaking 2 years old. Which is bull cuz my parents have the same cable and they use the all on button all the time. but whatever.. there is a clock on the box.. i guess i can use that.anyways. So he's all done. I go and very politly inform him, that since I am not "allowed" to touch the cable boxes that he would have to come back to each room, because he ignored ALL the expensive power surge protectors I have to protect my tv's and ps2's and cable boxes and whatnot. And that I would like for him to plug everything back in the protectors like I had it, cuz thats what its there for. He slams the work order on the table and says " I dont have time for this SH*%. I have other houses I have to go to. Then he just LEAVES. He doesnt leave me instructions for the remotes incase I get a new tv, he doesnt leave me my welcome kit or anything. But he did leave me all his trash and little bits of sharp exposed wire poking out from plastic cable, in every single room.. which my 1 year old niece got a hold of and could have very well gotten hurt when she put it in her mouth...
The fall out.. I went to the comcast office first thing monday morning to file an official complaint (along with that issue, we had ordered the second tier of digi cable so my husband could have the Outdoor channel specifically, and everytime we would go to it, it would show up as not authorized and that we would have to call comcast to order it! BS!)but anyways, the lady at comcast told me that there were no supervisors there that could handle my complaint and to call the 1-888 number. Which I did. When the lady answered the call, I informed her that I wanted to speak with a tech. supervisor. She told me that tech supervisors do not speak to the general consumer and esp. not for complaints. But that she would file that I had a complaint against a tech and never wanted him to come to my house again. i tried several times to go into detail on why i was filing a formal complaint. She kept cutting me off and wouldnt let me. So finally I asked for the techs work id number and his name. She proceeds to tell me that they dont give out that information when you have something negative to say about them. Only when its something positive. So I said thank you and hung up.
So I went strait to the Virginia State Corporation Commission and filed a formal complaint with them. I knew comcast wasn't going to do a darn thing about it, but that they would. Within 6 hours of filing the complaint I recieved an email telling me that it had been escelated to the manager in charge of the vscc and that she would call me and let me know what action they were going to take in my case. Within 2 hours of that email, I recieved another email letting me know that it had now been handed over to the FCC. THose boys don't play around. The next morning at 10am I recieved a phone call from the fcc AND comcast apologising their butts off for what had happened, AND along with giving me that techs full name, they also informed me that as of the previous day that gentleman (and i use that term loosley) was no longer employed by Comcast. They were also refunding me ALL of my installation charges AND giving me more $$ for my troubles. (Within 3 hours, my online bill was showing those promises.) Needless to say I dont have to worry about my cable bill anytime soon. But I didnt do it for the money. I told them, I didnt want any money back AND I wanted to keep my service. I just wanted to make sure that that tech never treated anybody the way he treated me.
It's a shame that I had to go the route I did, but I wouldnt have had to do all that if the customer service at comcast was better, and they would have helped me when i FIRST went to them.I only contacted the VSCC when all else failed...
Comcast is absolutely evil! I went to switch to DirecTV but then found that they were even more incompetent than Comcast! NOW where do I turn? I just looked at my bill and every so quietly they added at least 3 dollars to every part of my cable service! It is a crime to be charging over $80 a month for standard digital cable and not even have premium channels included! When will the FCC step in and regulate this $$ hungry soul-less company?!
I paid for comcast and had it shut of because it cost me to much money and the kids were mad but i was up to date on my bill and they said i owd them 106dallarsand i did not they sent it to the collection and i phoned them with my bank statmemt and they still send me bills there so dumb!
Old thread, I know, but I found this thread by googling "incompetent people at Comcast". Aside from their prices being higher than balls on a giraffe, I think the main flaw in Comcast's service is the lack of internal company communication. It takes them forever to get a field problem fixed because no one knows what the problem is. When a problem is found, the case is usually pawned off to someone else who isn't given adequate notes if any notes at all. This often causes a vicious circle, which I have witnessed first hand multiple times.
Cable companies in general are a racket. I can't wait until I can choose between multiple media providers in my area when the fibre gets laid. Verizon/AT&T or Comcast will be my choices.
I think everyone should join Florida's lawsuit against Comcast about their sorry On Demand service. New Movies are often not there as advertised or will come out for one day and then get yanked. In addition, they go for weeks without updating the anime channel although they supposedly made a deal with the anime network to offer more and better service.
In addition, Comcast uses the old bait and switch when it comes to advertisement for services that include hidden fees like a $99 installation fee for phone service for their 33+33+33 for internet/phone/cable service.
I hate, HATE Comcast. I've called repeatedly to complain about commercials and programming being cut-off, audio and video dropping out, and various technical incompetencies. I always get the run-around, promises of follow-up, etcetera, and nothing, NOTHING ever comes of ANY of my complaints. They don't even bother to respond. Comcast is just incompetent, and doesn't give a ### about anything.
As soon as I can replace Comcast, I will. I hate Comcast.
Where do I begin. My DVR box has never worked. I rent this box for $3. and change a day and the show I record daily doesnt record or it records and goes blank or it will freeze until you unplug it. Service techs I know some by name now they keep coming and bringing used DVR that have other peoples recordings on them ie porn. with out even checking or erasing the shows. Now I am on my sixth box to be returned today to get another one and this time it better be a new box in a new box.
Now the telephone I dont use the phone often at nite so when I do its usually important. Well they say that all lines are business and please try again. I pay for that! The phone is not a luxury it is a necessity. Not that they care but I do have family emergences and would like to make and receive call that I am paying for.
Contract: Yup suckered into there triple play cant get out till 4/09. I am being raped and hate the system. Last words COMCAST SUCKS
Comcast charges New Customers 19.95 for Cable Internet and Charges Good Standing Customers 42.95 For the Same Service.If Comcast had any Business Education it would not take long to figure out if you charged all customers not only New Customers 19.95 a month for Cable Internet you would make more money in the long run. Get a life Comcast and Wake up.More People would signup for Comcast Internet. (A old saying 1 plus 1 is 2) Thank You Thomas Lisson
unable correct equipment from comcast
I have been a customer of Comcast for many years none of which have I felt like I have received what I have been paying for, I will attach a series of emails from Comcast customer support:
The bottom line here is that with all my effort I am unable to get proper customer support or the correct equipment from Comcast.
Dwayne,
Your response,
”We would contact our customers in the event of any equipment is not available and reschedule accordingly. You have the option to go by one of our local office to pick up a High Definition only or HD/DVR and due the installation yourself in all area of Georgia except Calhoun and Rome."
I have had several service personnel show up at my house with the wrong equipment, none of which resulted in a call to alert me of the lack of correct hardware, nor a re-scheduling of the proper equipment.
Secondly you suggest I go into a Comcast store to pick up the right equipment, If you had read the entire body of this email you would have seen that I have gone to a Comcast store per the suggestion of customer support personnel such as yourself. Also with no results.
So instead of giving me excuses and let's try and remedy this situation.
Jeff

Eric,
I will CC Corporate services so that they will understand as well what type of responses I get from customer care personnel like yourself.
You responded below, stating that I should "check periodically to see when this equipment becomes available" because you have a shortage of HD equipment available to my area, yet I have a service appointment scheduled for this coming Friday, in which I was told that a DCT6412 would be brought to me, I am just trying to find out why I am paying a 39.00 fee for something you say is not available to me. As a support Rep. for Comcast shouldn't you be making sure that if the equipment in question is not available then either A) re-schedule the unneeded appointment or B) try to find the equipment in question?

This is my last hope for proper customer service as calling Comcast has been a disaster, starting on Nov. 2005 when I moved into my new home the service coming through has had major issues, including choppy picture on demand communication errors, and poor reception in general. I have been unable to
get this portion of my service fixed, so I let it go. Now after investing in a HDTV I run into yet another problem which comes from an incompatible HDMI out from the Motorola DCT3416 cable box thinking my TV is some sort of recording device immediately turning off the signal to the TV, after giving a HDCP error. I have called many times with no one knowing what the issue was, so I have gone to Motorola's site which states that the DCT6412 fixes the issue. I have scheduled many service calls to get the correct box but there is serious breakdowns between the service personal working in the field and the customer service reps. Working in the offices. I was told at one point I would need to go into a Comcast store to get the correct box and when I asked if I could have the number to the store to see if they had the correct box I was told customers could not have the number so I went anyway and stood in line for over an hour to find out they in fact did not have the box I needed. I am happy to pay over 200.00 which seems to be the standard bill I get each month, but problem after problem has left me thinking Comcast just does not care. The customer service Reps working for Comcast are rude and have a general disrespect for customers with problems. I have requested on the last 3 phone calls that a manager call me to speak about this with no phone call back. I have never spent so much time on hold, or with support staff as I have with Comcast. Like I stated before this is my last try before looking elsewhere for better service.
horrible service!
Comcast Telemarketer contacted me regarding using Comcast's Digital Voice System. Upon saying I was interested, but only if the following two features were available, he said he researched and found they were available.
The services are remote call forwarding and busy dial rollover. After installation I was informed neither feature was available.
Within 2 weeks both phone lines went down and I was informed that it would take, and it did take, 72 hours to repair it. The service technician went around and unplugged my several phones and when he left he only plugged one back in. Within another week, the lines went down again, this time repaired next day by replacing the modem.
I then requested AT&T switch my phone back to them. It took Comcast over 1 week to release the phone number, and then only one of the two. After three weeks the other phone number release has been rejected 3 times, stated reason, AT&T is only requesting one number being released and Comcast says they have two numbers. This is not the case as one number was already released.
Emails to Comcast and phone calls have not yet resolved this problem. One service rep at Comcast told me that I should start over with AT&T.
I was told by the AT&T rep (of course some prejudice here) that they are having this type of trouble with Comcast not releasing the numbers.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I have had Comcast Digital voice for a year and a half. I have had nothing but problems with the voice mails. It takes them to long for a call to post of the website. I keep getting errors when I log into my account. DVC error 313 and DVC 50 mostly. I'm told it's my equipment all the time. I have put fresh installs of Window's XP Home on my computer. I reinstalled the system software on my laptop still I get the errors. I even go a new machine with Windows Vista Home Premium. This is a new machine! And still those ding dongs blame my equipment. I like to know right away when a call comes in. Not 8 hours later.
I also can't get call forwarding bud to work with comcast. Any suggestions?
Signed up for comcast digital voice which included voice mail. When it did not work after a week of complaints and run around, I was told there are in fact several models of phones that are not recognized by their voice mail system, sorry but there is nothing they can do. After much more complaint was told to go buy a new phone then call back and they would credit my account that amount. I bought the phone then when I called back they said oops she should not have said that. They said they would put a request in and in 4 to 6 weeks maybe I will get a credit but that they dont ever normally give credit for this. of course I was never told about incompatible phones when I signed up for plan.
tv showes a scrambled signal!
When I bought my new HD TV, I upgraded to the Premium HD Cable TV service from Comcast last year after having regular TV service with them for the previous 2 years.
I soon discovered that there were still some "manufacturing defects" in their new HD Cable TV set top box. At times my TV would change channels inadvertently, or would "freeze frame" the picture, or loose the sound entirely. Thinking this was a problem with my cable box, I went to Comcast and exchanged my defective box for another one. But, to my surprise, the same problems started within a month of getting the new HDTV Cable box. A call to Comcast tech service cleared this up. But, the problem would come back in a few days to a week. This got to be very frustrating. After a few complaints to the customer service department I was finally told they were aware of defects in the HD Cable box and that Comcast and the manufacturer were working on them. In the meantime the tech support recommended that I leave the Comcast set top box ON at all times (even when the TV is off)... this will keep the box from getting "de-tuned". I resolved that I would just have to put up with this until the fixes were made. But, after 3-weeks of keeping my cable box on 24/7, the TV suddenly showed a scrambled signal on all channels. I called comcast who sent a tech out to find the problem. The tech determined that the problem was in the TV, not in the cable box. Comcast charged me $25 for the service call, since it wasn't cable related. So, I called a TV repair service and they discovered that the cause was a burnt out circuit board on my TV... the power circuit board (PCB.) Fortunately for me, this was a warranted repair. Over the next 5 months, I watched my TV keeping the Comcast cable box on 24/7. Then, suddenly, again my TV showed a scrambled signal just as before.
This time I called the TV repair first. They determined that I had the same PCB problem as before... only this time I was over the warranty date. I had to pay for the new PCB, but the labor was still covered under my warranty. The repairman asked me if I had any input power to my TV other than the power cord. I told him that Comcast has me keep the Cable set top box on all the time regardless of TV on or off. He said that a lot of customers have experienced problems including circuit board problems from keeping their cable box on. So, I discovered it was the Comcast cable box, with it's "manufacturing defects", that was the cause of my TV problems. I called Comcast with this information to get redress for my out of pocket expenses, including a refund of the $25 service charge they hit me with. Comcast denied any knowledge that their equipment caused any problems with customer TV sets. I wrote a letter of complaint to Comcast, but did not receive an answer. I have now canceled my Cable TV service and switched to a satellite service. If you have had any similar problems please leave a comment here and do as I did and quit Comcast and write a letter to the FTC.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Yes, this is a common occurrence. So let me advise everyone on this issue. IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL LAW to SCRAMBLE or JAM a frequency. GO to the FFC.GOV website and file a complaint. Do NOT use any other website. I called out AT&T a few years ago. They came by with their crew to check out the line and basically admitted that was going on. NO FINE OR CONSEQUENCE became of that situation. QUID PRO QUO does exist. Grease and bribery is still going on. Just keep complaining to the FCC PLEASE
I have two televisions and my problems are my pictures get scrambled along with the sound. This doesn't happen to every channel. I also will be denied some channels that I normally watch, while a bit later I will be able to watch the channel. My DVR playback will often be scrambled, although I can watch same show on demand with no problems.
tv keep saying NO DATA AVAILABLE at all times
I just bought a full HDTV (1080p). I discovered that Comcast uses 1080i. That's the maximum. Apparently, no one has informed Comcast that 1080p has arrived, because when I called for information, I was variously told that 1080i is "the best, " it's my TV's fault, not Comcast's, the only way for them to tell what I have is to send a representative to my house, etc. Having been burned twice on the house calls, I declined. Can someone explain to me what's going on?
kikio
your repeat of movies on encore is very bad. playing the same ones over and over stinks. when will this change or i look for another cable co. to make my day. lets some new ones soon. NOW NOW NOW.0
very poor service at high price!
Comcast has now missed another appointment ... this was to be the 5th visit to get me the correct, working cable box for my service. Its now been rescheduled -- again (it was never entered into their system). The reason for this is that they've moved a couple of the only channels I watch to the digital spectrum ... which means I had to pay lots more, get a special box (which doesn't work right) and get poorer service and flexibility for recording -- unless I pay even more to get a DVR (which I refuse to do) ... they are trying to drive people to pay more than their already inflated rates by providing poorer and poorer service and options at the less costly service plans.
There is no alternative for me -- Direct TV satellite does not work well in my location.
I can't wait until the phone companies start providing a competitive service!
have a comcastic day!
Just a friendly "review" / comment towards all comcast telephone service customers... Comcast doesn't care about your service issues and the reps that you speak with on the phone definitely could give a @#%@ less about your "dog that died" or you accidentally putting an "extra zero" when you make a payment through your online banking...
If you don't know how to process a payment without entering it wrong yourself, then you shouldn't have a phone in the first place... And we are all about sick and tired of hearing you cry and make excuses about why you haven't paid your bill or why its past due... And then you throw a fit when your service is interrupted for nonpay... Newsflash—this just in—pay your %@#@@ bill... You think calling customer service to cry will do some good, or even sometimes you get tired of the "regular reps" and ask for a supervisor... Well let me tell you this right now—if you yell and scream at a rep or supervisor, more than likely they have you on speaker phone and we are all laughing at your stupid, complaining, crybaby, inbred, backwoods @$$... Go change into your airbrushed tweety bird t-shirt you won at the carnival, and shut your mouth and s**k it up... If you call customer service and think "the customer is always right", you've got a lot to learn! We do not give a %@$@ now, nor will we give a @%@# if you raise your tone or say a couple "big scary cuss words"... Honestly, deal with it or go to another service provider... We are sick and tired of talking to you!... Oh and "thanks for reading my review... Have a comcastic day... !"

Trying to get a human on the phone is next to impossible, not able to email you (yeah right) or connect you to another extention (and they offer phone service). If another company comes into Shreveport I am sooooo out of Comcast, maybe we need a dish, yeah like that idea. My ex works there - should fit right in with this whole situation.

Well, I do agree with the original comment. I mean, why should some service rep care that I maybe...got my nails done instead of paying the cable bill? They shouldn't care.
I am a Comcast customer and have been for years. I don't agree with the prices of my service, but in my area that is about the only choice I have.
I can understand why Amish Wolverine would get tired of hearing everyone's excuses. I hear excuses on why people can't pay their bill for my veterinary services and then they walk out the door and climb into their brand new Tahoe.
I feel that Amish's comment was a little juvenile, but he/she is venting and that is always good for anyone's stress level.
Point blank: if you can't pay it...don't use the service.
my problem is that i am a person with medical problems & my phone will not ring in ever since i got my comcast triple play,why?I have m.s. & not only doesn't my lifealert not work nor an i get calls so anyone can check on me.I needed help at times and depend on my phone so please make that reliable 4 me again.I put my faith in this decision to go this way cause of my low income and i thought this was it and still believe it is kinks have to be worked out i know i have confidence in comcast it has been a month now its time o.k.
Wow. I suppose Comcast really doesn't care about their customers. I know first hand what kind of apathy goes on in customer service at Comcast because I have my Internet, Phone and Cable through Comcast and I have dealt with losers like Amish while calling regarding valid problems with their faulty equipment and mysterious service outages.
By the way, I'm in the process of switching all of my services to another company that wants my business. I suppose that's $160 less a month comcast will be making. Probably about what Amish makes. Maybe they'll have to lay him off.
If you work for the company I am sure you should know that this is a bad little thing you wrote out here... I see your point and I am not saying you are wrong but this comment could cost you your job this comment gets sent out to the main people of your company and the FCC gets involved because these people you are dissing file a slander complaint and your done... Yes you have a point however you should learn to keep your mouth shut if you value what you have... and it's not always the customers fault that their service got interrupted... you people at comcast mess up and seemingly very often... that's when you tend to get people who are angry and upset when they have been paying their bill and somewhere stuff got screwed up with you guys and not with the customer.
Just remember you have to deal with it it's your job if you don't like it find another one and stop ### about it here.
yes or no ?
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter,
Sincerely,
Bobby Payne
I was wondering if it is possible to have a call list(ingoing and outgoing) for todays date (9/10/07), e-mailed directly to me at clm.swfla@yahoo.com ?
Man that rocks, I work for comcast and you are so right!
bad and rude customer service!
I have had Comcast for a little over a year. They came door to door through the neighborhood late summer 2005. After 4 visits to my home I finally signed up for cable, phone and internet with them. They seemed kind and promised a lot. The minute the service was hooked up, the kindness ended. We were hooked up November 2005. From the start our service was very bad. If we had a connection at all it was very poor. They were at our house dozens of times, always different people who did not know what the last had done! By March 2006 most of the issues had been solved but we still had had issues with the internet. We fought and fought, and around early spring it was finally working better. I was promised a credit for all the time we could not use it, and to this day I can not get anyone to help we find out when I might get it. Then on top of that 4 times in the last month we have lost all service. This has left us with no phone, no tv and no pc service. They can never give us a reason and they are not very nice. Even when the tv works, the pay per view is acting up. It won't order when we want, and then orders when we don't want! We have never been able to receive long distance phone calls. All of these issues are supposed to have open trouble tickets, but we never hear back. The final reason I'm writing is because yesterday a Comcast truck was at my vacant neighbor's house, and after they left our service was completely off. I called comcast within 5 minutes of him leaving. The operator told me they would turn the truck around and have him come back. that was ot 4:00pm by 7:00pm we had not heard a word. My wife called back, and after getting "disconnected" twice, she got through to a girl named Jesscica and put on hold for over 30 minutes on a borrowed cell phone. My wife explained that we had young children in the house and had no communication to the outside world in case of an emergency, but Jessica said it would take 24 to 48 hours to get someone back out. We had been more that patient at this point, so my wife asked to talk to a manager. Jessica put the night manager, Robert on the phone. Let me just say he was so rude he brought my wife to tears. He told her things like, "what makes you think we can turn a truck around for you?" and "we do not consider one person an emergency." My wife asked him not to be rude, and he told her he was ending the call. She asked to please tell her when someone would be out, and he didn't answer for about 20 seconds, they spoke slowly to her like she was a child and said, "mam you had been told several times, we will handle this in 24 to 48 hours, goodbye." I have never dealt with a company like this. I would also like to mention, there are a lot of neighbors having issues as well. Thank you for reading this, Bob Flucker
comcast can kiss my butt!
On 10/18/06 my internet speed suddenly dropped by 75% (like someone flipped a switch). The speed hasn't come returned as of 12/2/06. I'm on the 8mbps/768kbps tier. After numerous calls to Comcast, and numerous visits by level 1 techs and line techs, all they say is that I have a good signal and everything looks fine. But, they don't even attempt to explain or find out what is causing my problem. In the meantime, I find flayers in my Sunday paper from them, advertising their so called "Power Boost"! Not only did I not get a 'boost' but my service level has dropped 75%. After replacing every single component on my property, from the different PCs I have, the modem, router and cables (all the way to the tap), they say that there is no problem to the node either. So, my best guess is that they are intentionally reducing my bandwidth, and diverting the capacity to some other area. Maybe to the northeast where they have to compete with Vios. They'll never admit that, and apparently, they'll never fix my problem. As soon as I get some competition in my area, Comcast can kiss my butt.

comcast customer service nightmare!
I have a major complaint with Comcast digital voice service. Last month someone called into them and impersonated my wife, gave our home number, address, and had our phone service disconnected! That was easy! It then took us 5 days to get our service restored. This after several calls to their "customer advocacy specialists" and escalations.
Next, this past Friday, our phone service mysteriously stopped receiving incoming calls. We can make calls out, but when dialing our number callers get the famous "You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service." I called them on Friday and was told 24-72hrs for repair. So that time speeds by, and still no incoming calls. So I called on Monday and was told by a "customer advocacy supervisor" that the trouble ticket would be escalated and most likely repaired that evening. He also offered me a $25.00 "customer satisfaction" credit on our account. Monday evening comes and goes, and still disconnected, so I called them again yesterday and was told that it has been escalated to Verizon, and it is out of their hands! Estimate: 48-72hrs. I was also told by another "customer advocacy specialist" that there was none else I could speak to beyond her, they don't have a consumer affairs hotline (just a PO Box in Texas), and there was no more information she could provide me. She won't give me her last name, number (understandable I suppose), or even which office she works out of (that's less understandable). Her supervisor just does "administrative things", and her supervisor's supervisor also just does "administrative things". She also told me she would be happy to take a disconnect order from me. Nice people! Talk about no accountability, no responsibility and the burden of getting something done squarely on the consumer.
By the way, because of the security issue with the first incident, I asked at that time to have a security password put on our account so that random people who happen to know our address (which unfortunately is listed) can't mess with our account. You would think that after what happened they would ask me for that password, but I have yet to be asked for it once during any of my calls in to them. Each time I ask about that I am told, yes, the password is noted on the account and, yes, they "should have" asked me for it. Wow...
So we're going on day 6 of disconnected phone service, Comcast has no information and no way to voice a complaint, and we are running up our cell phone minutes taking calls on those. It seems like a $25.00 credit is just not enough.
In my opinion, Comcast digital voice customer service is just about the worst out there. I've already got an order in with Verizon to port our number over, but that will not likely occur until Monday. I'm also switching over from Comcast cable internet to Verizon high speed DSL at the same time, just out of principle!
Beware!
Ack, I posted it in the wrong thread? Sorry..
I just registered awhile ago .. totally a newbie at this.. :(
Hmm, all these complaints about returning AT&T equipments make me suspicious. Maybe this is what AT& T wants, it doesn't want to accept our equipments in their stores so they can con us all and say that they did not receive the equipments hence the huge bills for the unreturned equipments.
But good thing you guys know that you have to ship them back as I had no idea and boy did I get the biggest surprise when I tried returning the equipments to the store. Turned out even the corporate store does not accept and will not even help you with your problem, there is no other option but to go to UPS and ship these damned equipments. The young lady at the corporate office @ Monument Blvd. told me that I can leave the equipments there but they will just throw it away and at first I told her, "yeah these are your equipments you can throw these away" but then since they will not even acknowledge the return, no scanner to scan the serials and since they said they won't even be able to look into my account, I decided I had no choice but to bring it to UPS. But my blood pressure did go up with the way these sales people are so cocky. The manager did apologize but still he has this air like he is not sorry. Anyway, hopefully when I return thru UPS, they will get the equipments right away and not charge me $150 each.
Yesterday I had Comcast installed, TV and INTERNET and PHONE with a free HD-DVR for only 89.97 . I had no reason to stay with AT&T which I pay $112 just for TV and internet alone. AT& T's internet sucks and the TV connection keeps getting cut off so goodbye AT&T ! I will never get your services again !
I am very upset about paying Comcast digital voice modem rental fee. It was $5 before and is increased to $7 now. I would like to purchase my own modem so that I don't have to pay $7 each month to rent from Comcast. However, I called Comcast quite a few time but was always told I cannot use my own modem even if I purchase the right model. I think Comcast is ripping the customers off by charging $7 for renting a modem to go with their digital voice. Customers are forced to pay for a modem fee of $7 because Comcast won't allow you to purchase or install one. I just hate to think how much money we have to pay per year for renting a stupid modem from Comcast. It is extremely unfair to Comcast customers.
Does Comcast ever fix the problem of not receiving incoming calls?
i'm not even going to begin typing out my millions of problems with comcast. screwing me out of money, phone not working, wrong internet, wrong cable packages, idiot techs, idiot reps .. waste of money .. about 140 a month before payperview and i have the world's most horrible service.
Comcast Nightmare: I have the 3 service with comcast. phone, internet and tv, a week before xmas our phone number changed out of the blue and so anyone calling our original number got a disconnect recording. Got it fixed then in a few days it went back to the new number, again, out of the blue, now, it gets worse, found out that our original number was being routed to the home of a comcast service technicians home and how do I know this? On one of my many calls to comcast tech I actually got the tech who was getting my phone calls, the nightmare continues, they then disconnected my original ph number and then gave it away to a new customer within 4 hours or disconnecting. all throughout christmas and new years 08 this went on and on, finally the came out and changed my modem, saying the tech had my number, holy moley, thought it was all fixed. noooooo, today i was looking for a phone number and went into the digital voice online and there was a list of phone calls that i did not recognize, werent mine, and so im now getting all of the logs from the 2nd number i was given (if your confused, you should be). where are my calls and logs going? talk about breach of security, hope that washington isnt on comcast, bin laden probably has georges number. go figure.
I canceled my digital voice 4 months ago and am still getting billed for it. Every time I call [protected] I waste over 1 hour and get a total run around. Does anybody have a direct phone number for the Digital Voice Billing?
I am currently on day 7 or 8 with incoming calls problems with Comcast digital voice. Same problem as yours--outgoing works, incoming gives an error. My neighbor has the same problem. I called 4 days ago and was told the problem would be fixed in 34 hours or they would send a tech out within 48 hours after the initial 34 hours of my tech support call. No tech has come. Completely disgusted by CDV.
Also note that I was fighting a billing error for 18 months. It was finally corrected last month, but it only took dozens (maybe 4 dozen) of calls, and four service interruptions because of the issue. Each interruption took 7-21 days to repair, and meant loss of phone, Internet, and TV. It's now only been 6 weeks since my bill has been straightened out and now this...
Hey, I work for Comcast, in the CDV department, and it really sucks, we gets all of the complaints the disgruntled customers, but hey it's not the reps we are limited, the cdv service bites really bad it needs to be regulated, then Comcast can start to care about the cx. lately it seams all they care about is the new customer, They got to take good long hard look at the customer's they got know, 30 million cx's with cdv, and out of that 30 million 20million cx's don't have much trouble, but for those that do good god if it where me the third call would have been transfer me to retention my service is not up to par and shove your credits and promos up your a**, but to all of the upset people when your talking with a rep where limited to what we can do, hey I agree with every ticked off customer, but when a customer attacks me for a Comcast issue there is no way in hell I'm going to help you out. So show kindness and I'll give you a months credit, go to bat for you do what I can. The cdv service is a internet service, it's not considered a phone service, if it where then it would be regulated and Comcast would have to get on the ball, so start sending letters to the fcc or who ever regulates the phone service, because Comcast has to wake up. Peace out, and just remember when you call a help desk your speaking with a human not an animal so yelling and screaming like a two year old is going to get your ### hung up on. Put the show on the other foot, would you want me in your face screaming and baling at your place of work?

From the time I got C'cast service 4 years ago it has been a nightmare. First I was somehow erroneously hooked up to 2 other people's tel lines! Like a party line and you couldn't call if someone else was using it...one of the "users" though I was hacking into her line and threatened to call the FBI! This went on for days...and waiting for a "tech" to come took more days then he couldn't find the problem (and, seriously, was an idiot who kept looking at his watch and asked me if there was a Hardees nearby) so it took MORE days to finally solve it! Asked for some kind of reimbursement for
those days I had to use my cell but no can do, I was told. Then, found out my "new" # was actually the previous # of a lady of the night...with almost a hundred messages "left" that I had to manually delete! (And still get calls at 2 am asking if I'm "working" tonight. Now, this latest glitch is that my TV (expensive on demand, premium service) has been off for 3 days and it's Christmas. Have tons of relatives, friends over, the kids want to watch something, I think what am I paying this for? I am looking for another service altogether. Crazy. And try sitting on the phone for 45 minutes while the taped message tells you how many good servics they offer and all the cool movies you CANNOT WATCH because the whole company is so incompetent.
