yeah those f'ers actually sent some dork to my house trying to sell me phone service. They were willing to throw in every single channel just for me to sign up. I hate door to door solicitors almost as much as telemarketers.

Also, Fuck You, WOW.
Got a bulletin this morning from them concerning "illegal file sharing activity" from my account... BS. Anyone else get this garbage?
- My friend got one from downloading shows that comcast plays like HBO series and such. It freaked him out a bit so he stopped toreent searching.fooler2
- I occasionaly will download riff-raff over p2p networks (bittorrent, etc) but nothing to my knowledge that is illegal... my dad flipped on me this morningd_rek

That's not a real screen grab. There are misspellings and inconsistencies.

Comcast is a monopoly most places. D_rek, I'm from the Detroit area also, and when I lived there, WOW was the ONLY other option, and they charge way more...
They advertise to us like we have a choice, but unless you live in NYC or another giant metro area, they're the only game in town.

Sig,
I hate both WOW and Comcast, DSL is an option in most burbs around D-town, but just as pricey without cable TV.

So far they've fucked me twice in 2 days. Simply not showing up for my installation at ALL. Never calling me once. And the fucking technician told Comcast "my front gate was locked".
I don't have a motherfucking front gate.
The most miserable part is, Optimum Online is offered just like 10 miles away in Hoboken. So fucking bitterly close, yet not close enough.

when i moved they said it would take 3 weeks until the next appt - i drove around the neighborhood, found a comcast truck, paid the lady $10 and had an appt. the next day.

That's a good idea... but I think I'd more likely find the Comcast truck and slice the tires.

For WOW/Comcast the people who install / make house calls have to be the worst fuck-ups ever.
Once I called because we were experiencing terribly slow internet at our house, so they gave us a 6 hour window of when the douchebag would get there the next day.
Of course he came with ten minutes to spare of that six hours. Instead of trying to diagnose the problem he just proceeded to replace all the equipment, router, cables, etc. He also removed something from a splitter for our cable and had no clue what it was for!
We had good internet for about 12 hours before we had to call them up again.
- oh yeah turned out it was interference from the line coming to the house - nothing to do with any of the equipment in the housed_rek

Honestly they are a classic example of a monopoly. Most people have had horrible experiences (myself included) with their service, yet continue to use them. I know in alot of areas they are the only high-speed internet option available. It sucks! I use Qwest DSL, and even though DSL really sucks, Qwest as a company is so much better than Comcast. I refuse to use Comcast anymore. Now if everyone would speak with actions maybe this monstrosity would see some competition.

Comcast is right, LOLCats suck.

I've gotta be honest: I've been with them for years, and I've never had a problem (except the problem I have with those stupid "Slowski" turtles). In fact, because I was satisfied with their service, I went ahead and got the phone line (in addition to the internet and cable that I already had). I did have to wait three days for a repairman once, but that was 'cause I called Friday afternoon.
