Comcast Sucks

August bill $182. September bill $242. I call to ask why the difference and they tell me it's a rate increase. I had the premium service pack which includes all pay movie channels and the Sports / Entertainment package. Fine, I tell them I'm not going to pay $242 a month and I want all pay movie channels and the Sports Entertainment Package removed. They remove it and the new bill is $188 per month. Bottom line I had absolutely everything in August for 182 per month and now have bare bones digital with internet for $188. They $uck.

The beatings will continue until morale improves

I'll take any chance I can to chime in and agree that they suck!

They wanted to put a fiber optic internet system in one of my centers and I had soooo much fun making their life hell. They still haven't done it.

get Verizon and save a ton of dough
I did
we don't miss comcast one bit
the picture quality is better too
I switched mostly because they regrouped the NFL channel into a sports package, I was paying too much already, they were not going to get another dime for all their idiotic price increases anymore. If they waste money and raise prices to make up for it, I go elsewhere. screw them

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

About 6 months ago I told ComCast to kiss my furry butt. I went with Dish Network and a DSL.
The TV picture is better and the DSL is faster. Plus I'm saving about $100.00 a month.
