Comcast? Avoid them at all costs!

I currently have Comcast for my cable, internet, and phone service. Since signing up for their service in June of this year, I have had monthly issues and interuptions in service. To be honest, the cable is not bad. The internet and phone service is TERRIBLE! The most recent (and still occuring) issue has lasted over a week. I have been without internet and phone service for about a week. The most frustrating thing is that I work from home and rely on having reliable internet and phone service to do my job. This is a concept that apparently no one in the customer service department at Comcast can understand. I have been forced to call my cell phone provider and increase my minutes for the month in order to avoid overages. Obviously this costed me about $30.

Sick and tired of calling Comcast, I decided to start shopping the services around. AT&T has the same services and offers more perks (DVR and more channels) for the same price. Unfortunately, the Uverse system is not available where I live and I have get the aesthetically pleasing :) dish attached somewhere, but hopefully I will have reliable service.

Bottom line...STAY AWAY FROM COMCAST!

Comment On This

I have been with Comcast, got expensive and picture quality was poor. Went to DirecTV. Kept losing the picture and customer service was non-existant. Swallowed the early termination fee and went with AT&T U-Verse. Now I have problems with my phone, DSL and TV. Customer satisfaction is there #1 priority but I haven't found any employee that practices it. Keep repeating my problems to different people but no one has helped.
