Comcast screws it's contractors
let's start with I have been a cable contractor for 14 years and in those 14 years as prices have gone up our pay has been cut every year sometimes twice a year ( we have NEVER seen a cost of living raise). and then the contractors we work for dont want to pay us for overtime and are always being sued. and comcast keeps adding work and cutting time frames down to 2 hour time frames and when we are late gives the customer 20 dollars and charges us 25 (ILLEGAL) for being late and now they cut down on contractors down to 2 companies so expect alot of late techs..lol.they just keep doing more to screw the little guy and make more profit $$$$$, and so MR ROBERTS can have his summer homes on both the islands and live like a KING, while we have had so many pay cuts most guys doing this job have lost houses,cars,and other things like family's due to the crazy 10 or more hour day's we have to work for little or no money....................just letting every one know how COMCAST treats its contractors, there is much more but you get the idea.......

Comcast customer service is anything but service. It is an exercise in frustration. My bill prices was jacked up to where basic internet and cable are ridiculous. I called about every 6 months to get it lowered again. Sometimes they are cooperative, but more...

. I subscribe to Xfinity services that include voice (phone), internet, and television programming. I called to have service set up for my home in December, 2010. At that time it was determined that the residence is within the service area for Comcast and I agreed to...

So Sorry you had to experience that. Comcast employees don't read from a screen and if comcast was breaking a law the light company they lease the use of the poles through would have already fined them.
Your village is just as much to blame because they provide the permits and can order it be raised higher.
Hope it all works out for you. :sigh
Comcast - Horrible customer service
I setup service with Commast in October 2011 to get a "Bundle" package that came with a $300 gift card - I have called numerous times to get the status of that gift card and there have been numerous messages taken but no call back... So I've been paying $200 for this bundle package including phone, internet and cable for7 months but was never able to get the home phone to work so I've called them out 3 times and all the 3 times it "FIXED"... not so much. They come back out yesterday to tell me the exterior cable box has to be wired for a phone... so it's not compatible for a home phone, I can only run one line through the internet??? It only took them 7 months to figure this out. So they were scheduled to come back this morning and setup the phone line to the house, NO SHOW. I called and spoke to one person, she says yeah I can take care of you, please hold... then the automated system comes back on so I go through the number game.. push 1, push 2 push *89..., get another person who swears they can get it figured out, PLEASE HOLD, then the automated system comes back on so I go through the PRESS A NUMBER GAME AGAIN... 5 Reps and 2 HOURS later I get someone else so at this point I'm done with the whole process so I asked to speak with superviosr, after holding for another10 minutes I get an automated voicemail. I left a voicemail and lost 2 hours of my life and I'm no closer to getting my phone working or getting cable to the 2 extra bedroom or getting the $300 gift card that was part of my agreement. If your considering Comcast please consider what your tme is worth to you and you might find what I've found - Their cost out ways their value...

Comcast worker made me feel she was racist to me
I went into the Comcast store on Bissonnet in Houston, TX today to pick up two adapters for my two televisions. The comcast worker gave me a wrinkled torn Walmart bag for my stuff while everybody else in the store was leaving with a Comcast bag!!! i am also a paying customer!!! I felt very uncomfortable and noticed some clients were staring. I have not felt this humiliated before and I just left. Comcast has terrible customer service even on the phone I get through so much trouble and time to get one small problem or question fixed. I am an extremely unsatisfied customer that will cancel all of my services and my family's services as well!

Comcast in Tacoma, Washington - Very greedy company. steals your money.
I won't bother writing a long review because there's already so many of them, but let me just say this: We had been using Comcast Internet for over 1/2 year, and decided to get cable. Short story: The first bill rose from $65 to $181. Worst service all-around. Longer story: We had a maintenance guy come in to check on our set up (we had got the self-install kit), and we asked them beforehand, if there was nothing wrong with our setup, we wouldn't be charged because it wasn't our fault it's not working. The maintenance guy came in, turns out they never turned it on for our apartment building. They still charged us $30 for "Failed Self-Install Kit" and when asked about this, they did not give us our money back. On top of all this they had given us a very old motorola cable box that lacked an HDMI output. We had to use coax cables and zoom our HDTV for even less resolution.

Comcast did WHAT???
So, after 15 minutes on the phone with a Comcast service agent, I find out they want the last 4 of my SS#, just to send someone out?! I give them the #s and hear some mumbled reply... and am disconnected 15s later?? I call back after a half hour, having waited first because I thought we were accidentally disconnected and the service agent would call back. I find out when I get the new agent that the 4 SS digits DO NOT MATCH what they have on file, so they won't send anybody out!!! First off, we've had people from Comcast come out before, and never even needed SS#s. So now they've changed their policy and for god knows what reason have wrong information in our file... and I HAVE to fix their mistake?!! I need to waste my time and stand in line at one of their local storefronts with hat (and SS card) in hand, in order to prove what my social security number is?!!???!!!? Something they shouldn't need in the first place. Alll on top of us having the same account for almost 10 @^$^@# years (though TimeWarner traded the area to Comcast somewhere in there). What *** at Comcast thought this up in the first place? It's always been fine in the past to just call our home. For some reason they can't doubt the SS# information is wrong, but they must outright assume the home phone number on file isn't correct, or they could just call us and verify an appointment! Wouldn't be so bad if the phone agent had any leeway, but according to them, it's ironclad and not a thing they can do until I guess what 4 incorrect #s they have on file, or make a special trip to correct their error, in enforcement of a policy that makes no sense in the first place.
Comcast Sucks!!
Paid my bill online 11 days before due date - was going on vacation. Comcast sends letter 7 days after I made payment saying my bank wouldn't authorize the charge and that I owe a 30.00- that I must have put in the account number wrong. Took them 7 days to send the letter saying it didn't go through + 5 days to get here = one day late!! Will have that fee also!! The real kicker is that this was the first time I had made a real payment - I had a credit of over 125.00 because they had overcharged me so much on my first bill. They admitted that they had screwed up but said I needed to pay the whole bill because they couldn't change it - I would *** have a 2 and a half month credit. I should have ran far far away at that time. Spent two hours on the phone with them and my bank. My bank says they never tried to access my account. I call Comcast back (4th time) to explain what bank said and get the we don't give a flip response so I ask to be transferred to the disconnect department. They said they were sorry that it had "just closed". I had read all the bad reviews before I joined. What was I thinking. The money is not the issue I wasted way more of my time on the phone than that little bit of money. It is the principal and if we don't stop letting these companies keep screwing us it will only continue to get worse.
I had COMCAST for a year and when my contract was complete I called customer care to check the renewal of contract for 6 months so that I can get the same price. I explained customer care that I had renewed my apartment lease for 6 months only. They told me to renew...

I used to be a CAE at Lynnwood,WA Tech Repair call center. Comcast Cares Day is a joke.
You had to use a vacation day to participate in the HARD PHYSICAL LABOR VOLUNTEER SERVICE DAY.
Comcast Cares...but not much.
Comcast Cares...about $$$. If you want discounts call the 800 phone number and ask for the retention department.

Comcast Prices are Exorbitant
My mother is retired and on a very limted income. The mimimum monthly price for programming for 1 HD TV (and NO DVR) was almost $80 through Comcast. She lives in retirment apartments, so Comcast was her ONLY choice. For those of you (or those with family members) in the same situation, I recommend getting an TV antenna (I bought a Mohu Leaf and it works great). All the signals are digital, so it's nothing like the rabbit ear days of old and you can get all your local TV channels FREE in HD. If you go to the FCC website (http://transition.fcc.gov/mb/engineering/maps/) you can see what stations you could receive in your area. I cancelled my mother's Comcast service and am now saving her over $800 a year. PS If you're a little more tech savvy (unlike my elderly mother) and have an internet connection you can augment your content with a streaming device (Roku, Boxee Box, Playstation etc) and say goodbye to Comcast or any other overly expensive cable/dish provider.
