I have been a customer of Comcast for many years but since September I have been having issues and this is a constant issue and have not got this issue resolved and we are now going to June and still nothing has been fixed. This issue is actually getting worse to the point of no service for hours. I am constantly switched to another rep. Who apologize and says sorry and they can’t assist. I am so tired of this issue not being resolved or proper credits applied.

Currently I'm paying $239 for cable & internet which is too high but we manage anyway. Recent we were encouraged to switch to Comcast new X1 product and with regret this system is the worst. The system freezes every minute on the minute and to top this off Comcast is doing me a favor and wanted to charge for a technician to come out since rebooting the system does nothing to help. Comcast is ripping people off and something needs to be done here. Even if they have a outage for days they are reluctant to give you a credit. Please do something about this monopoly.

I have received emails and popups telling me that I need to replace my modem by today or my service will be changed or stopped. They also have sent me things telling me that the new modem arrived three days ago. Huh? I contacted Xfinity this morning and a nice worker named Heidi tried to help. She told me that the modem will not arrive until tomorrow. When I asked why I am receiving emails and popups about this, she said she was not sure.
I appreciated her honesty, but I still need an answer, so she sent me to a supervisor named Brittany who is also a nice woman. However, I am not in a good mood, so these two women caught my wrath. I cannot see well, so putting in a modem is out of the question. My service is terrible anyway, so why put it in? My neighbors have gone to cheaper companies with slower service FOR THE SERVICE! I am a teacher and I need better work. I have been told my modem does not work because it is too close to my sliding glass door. It is too close to the heater. My grandsons' video games interfere with the modem. My jack-o-lantern is too close to the modem. I am too close to a ravine. It is too close to my cat!
There are too many ridiculous ones to write about. I had been given free HBO for awhile, which was very kind. I am going through cancer treatment, so it has been lovely being able to rest and watch a movie. HBO is gone now, but the problems remain. When I call into your company, I have to go through an automated service. Once an employee answers the call, I am expected to give the same information again. Why? This is your company, so I should not have to verify my private information again.
When I get transferred, I have to REPEAT THE INFORMATION AGAIN! My grandson is a computer programmer who says it would take very little for you guys to use the same system. He actually wonders why you are not doing so! He feels you are losing customers because of this and many other IT problems. I expect better for the amount of money I pay you each month. Over $156 is much more than a senior citizen should ever have to pay for your service.

Started having problems with my cable reception. Comcast came out and ran a temporary line. Utilities were never marked so when subcontractor came out to run line on Friday, May 18th he was laying line blindly across utility lines. Needless to say I was lucky to come home and find that subcontractor was going to lay line across my neighbor. **! Got him to run line on our property but had to go across the corner of neighbors because utilities had not been marked. Subcontractor left cable line on top of ground where I could have easily run over with lawnmower. Neighbor almost cut it with his weedeater. **!
Also, I watched subcontractor splice cable line twice in my own backyard so now less than two weeks later I have no cable reception again probably due to rainy weather. **! Now I have called Comcast. Lady I talked to was very nice but hands tied. She can only do so much. Cable guy to come out tomorrow May 30th to probably run another temporary line across yard. The subcontractor is not scheduled to bury the line until August 14th. ** that I have to mow around a temporary line for what, almost 3 months and I pay over $200 a month for service from COMCAST. **. Everyone get a ROKU t.v. and forget Comcast!

Comcast is a monopoly, yes there are other providers in FL. but the issue is housing construction and speed of the internet. Since most houses are cement blocks due to hurricanes, your loss of signal from the modem/wifi thru one wall is around 80%. I have had the top of the line modem and wifi + adapters and repeater to actually get 40% less signal or 95Megs at the source and 50-60Megabits to my computer.
For that supposedly 100Megs I pay $50 a month. But every May with June as the anniversary date, a new promotion, new garbage offered and a higher price. I have again acquiesced to this monopoly, to get basic cable streaming and Starz for only 30% more per month. I have an antenna that gives me better reception than streaming at 0 dollars, plus why does my streaming look great on Hulu, Amazon, or Netflix (via Roku) and Comcast technology is the worst. Today, I received a call about my feedback a few days ago in reference to Comcast. It's a shame that they actually have someone calling me about my review after we concluded our business. What am I supposed to say, yes I am happy to get more garbage and pay 30% for lack of quality.

I live in NJ and my only option is Comcast. I originally signed up to a double play package TV/Internet but found myself not using the TV at all so wanted to find my options. All other cable companies I've been with would allow me to view/change services online. Comcast will not. When I attempt to do that I'm told I need to call. When I asked why that is, they said that this is what happens with anyone on the "new billing system" and that they will no longer support the ability to manage accounts online.
When I called to discuss my options, I'm greeted with sales pitch after sales pitch. I explained that I was looking to lower my bill by removing cable and the rep spent a majority of the call trying to convince me to add phone service. The rep refused to give me prices for internet alone and continue to try to upsell. I still have no idea how much it will cost to move to internet only, but I feel I have no option but to stay with the plan I have. It seems like the cable companies keep their rates as a guarded secret. Even the ones you can find online are generally only for New Customer, not existing customers. It's frustrating since I don't have any way of knowing what my options are and it becomes clear that Comcast isn't willing to tell me.

I am considering starting a class action lawsuit against Comcast/Xfinity in the state of Florida. I originally signed up with this company for basic Internet that they told me would cost 29.99 per month plus tax and modem rental. Since then the plan I signed up for, is not the plan I’ve been being billed for. My cheapest Bill has been $80, and that was with a $33 credit added to my bill. I am also being billed for channels I never requested, or received. As I said, I signed up for a basic Internet package for 29.99, and I was told there was an $11 modem rental fee plus tax. This should have worked out to $41 plus tax, but I have never received a bill that was less than $80. After spending over 4 hours on the phone with this company today, I realized the only option is to take them to court in this state.
I do believe that a lot of other people in Florida have had a similar experience with this company. There is currently a class-action lawsuit against Comcast/Xfinity in California accusing them of the exact same behavior, but plaintiffs in the California case have been rejected from that case, because of the fact that they are out of the state of California. This is why we must start our own lawsuit in the state of Florida.
If you are experiencing the same problems I am, then we can see resolution through this lawsuit, if you contact me. Please message me at **, or contact me via Facebook. I’ve already been in touch with attorneys, and we just need to register a few more people for the class action lawsuit. Please don’t let this company continue to steal our hard-earned money. I look forward to your emails and Facebook messages, we just need to register a few more people for the class action lawsuit to proceed. Once again, I beg you to stop this company from continuing to steal our hard earned money. My last bill was for over $150. I look forward to your emails and Facebook responses.

The biggest problem I have with Comcast is the outsourcing of customer service to the Philippines. The reps are polite and well-intentioned but I have only very rarely had an issue resolved no matter how miniscule the problem, usually because of the language barrier. I do get compliments from reps, even advice, however. Case in point: Recently a rep I spoke with told me that "my husband and I make a lovely couple(?!)." Another told me that "if I keep my husband smiling I will look younger and younger every day." On another occasion I told a customer service rep I was having a problem rebooting my TV. She paraphrased in saying she understood I was "experiencing a power outage." How can you communicate the nature of a technical issue to those who fail to understand the English language? As for billing? That's another issue to be addressed at another time--perhaps, when I have the stamina to do so.

On January 8, 2018 I signed up for a "One Year Long" promotional cable internet/TV package. I have been a customer of Comcast then Xfinity since 2005 but have to change my service each year to whatever package they are offering or else my bill goes up a HUGE amount - usually more than 50%. With the new package in January my internet speed went up and my TV lineup improved over what I had previously, for about the same as my previous service. Besides the annoyance of having to remember to check each year as the "special promotion" is expiring, I was relatively happy with the service package I purchased.
Now all of a sudden Xfinity has changed the TV station line up and I no longer have all the stations I signed up for. They claim they have "improved the lineup" by adding more stations. But they are not stations I want. I found out about the change when I turned on the TV to watch Game 6 of the Caps-Lightning NHL playoff series and NBCSN was gone. We had watched Game 5 on that station just two nights before. So I could only listen to the most epic game of the season and one of the most epic in franchise history on the radio. Thanks Xfinity. I will never get that experience back.
Upon calling to find out what was happening, I was told that NBCSN is now in a different "lineup" than I have. To get it back I could pay the same amount I am paying now but go down in internet speed or I could pay $17 more per month to get the same lineup I had before with the same internet speed. That is a 19% increase over my current monthly payment. That would meet the definition of extortion - being required to pay money under threat of losing something valuable. I said I just wanted the lineup offered in the long package I paid for in January. I was told that was not an option. There is a promotional package on right now that has a better deal than I got in January, but I am not eligible for it because I am already a customer and it is only for new customers. So I am left with diminished service or am extorted to pay 19% more to keep the level of service I paid for in January.
When I asked how they had randomly changed the year long package I had purchased in January, the person had no good explanation. The phrases included "corporate decisions", "negotiations with stations". She said that I did not have a "contract" with them so they could change the service at any time. She said the order confirmation they sent when I agreed to pay for the service was just to confirm I was the customer - not for me to understand the services I was paying for.
This would appear to me to be a clear bait and switch tactic. A certain service package is offered at a set price. I agree to pay that price. The company changes the services, reducing the value of the package to me but I still have to pay the same rate. To get the services I initially wanted and paid for, I have to pay 19% more per month. The help center person had no other solution for me but said I could call back between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m when the Customer Solutions branch is open and they might be able to do something for me.
I have 1 hour and 45 minutes left before they open and I get to call in. So, I MIGHT get it resolved, but I wonder how many people do not have the time or patience and agree to pay the increased fee just to be done with the drama created by Xfinity. Seems like a crooked and predatory way to make a profit. The customer service person did note that the phone lines were very busy at the help center with many people calling in over the very same issue. So the question remains... Will I will be watching Game 7 tonight at home without extortion? Or will I be watching it at my local? Go Caps!!

I paid for a relative's account for many years. That relative is now able to pay for their own account, so I canceled my account with Comcast in January and the relative opened a new account in their own name. It appears that Comcast is still charging my account on autopay on my American Express card and is also charging my relative. I spoke to several Comcast representatives on the phone during the last few weeks in an attempt to get this taken care of. Comcast representatives said they couldn't give me any information because it was no longer my account (how come I'm paying for it then?) My relative has spoken with them as well. I got a new statement from my credit card company yesterday and it's still on auto pay.
I went into the local Comcast office in Monterey today and spoke with supervisor DEVIN **. He verified it had been canceled in January but refused to give me any further information, nor would he provide me with a copy of my cancelation or explain to me why my credit card is still being charged. How can they continue to put charges on my card for someone else's account, without authorization? Seems like a pretty good deal, so I asked him for his credit card number so I could charge MY Comcast bill on HIS credit card -- he refused. Despite several unsuccessful attempts to get Comcast to resolve this situation, I have given up and have disputed the last few months' bills with my credit card company (who will handle it with Comcast) and closed my credit card account.

I call them THREE time asking if I buy my equipment that $14.95 fees will be deleted, THREE time they said yes and then I ask them THREE different time, "If I cancel the TV services, is the others fees related to the TV services will be deleted." They said, "YES it will." I went spend $350 to pay my own equipment and new antenna for tv.
I called to speak to technical support to help me to install it and they DID, I asked them again when the fees will be deleted, they said when I return the equipment to one of our store. I said okay, I ask if they can cancel the TV services. They transfer me to a department and this is what they said. THE FEES FOR EQUIPMENT WILL NOT DELETED BECAUSE I HAVE A PHONE LINE/ALL KIND OF ** AND FOR TV THEY CHARGE ME MORE IF I CANCEL. This is a ripoff company.

Comcast Cable/Xfinity Service needs to be investigated because they are using 3rd party payment transaction to steal your money. From 2015-2016 Comcast I mistakenly paid my bill twice with them of roughly $160. From that time they never return that money to me. At that time they used a third party and I kept all the papers and whom I spoke to trying to get my money and they have not yet return my money to me. Comcast/Xfinity needs to be out of business.

I was with Xfinity/Comcast for over 2 years and everything was going well. I bought a new home and called to have my service transferred and found out they did not service that area. The agent said “no big deal. We will cancel your service for you.” A month later I got billed an ETF (Early Termination Fee) for cancelling early. I was 3 months away from the end of my contract and they are going to charge me over $150 dollars for cancelling 3 months early on a 3-year contract. They said there is nothing they could do because a contract is a contract. I was SHOCKED! I was a loyal customer that whole time and was even wanting to use them at my new address, BUT because they are so small and service very small territories they are limited to where they can service you and then punish the customer! This is why I would never recommend their service unless you never plan to move… ever!

After we cancelled Comcast three days before during the trial month and paid even before the month ended we started getting a bill from them in the amount of 88.99 plus dollars. We contacted them three times already, the first two callers told us this was their mistake, we don't owe nothing and they still went ahead and opened a ticket dispute toward the case. This is outrageous! Now we get a letter from Southwest credit demanding this payment. We called Comcast once again and as always we cannot speak with the Supervisor to rectify the problem at once. In the meantime time passed and nothing is done. Yet they have time to send info to creditors and not fix the problem at hand while I'm on the phone addressing the issue. Poor services rendered and no excuse for. I'm very dissatisfied with this issue.

It would pay ($10) to get the DVR. Some channels are "pay only" if you miss the "live" showing. Comcast does include some channels, in their basic, that others (AT&T) doesn't.

Comcast Cable Service has great picture quality but it comes at a great cost. They start you with a promotion then the cost jumps up to be very costly. You can't go on another promotion until paying at least 3 months at regular cost and you have to call them to get a new promotion. They don't tell you to call after 6 months to call back and they will lower your bill.

I have been a customer of Comcast since 2007, took a two year break, and then restarted my service in early 2013. I feel confident in saying that Comcast is by far the WORST company I have ever had the displeasure to use (from customer service to actual service) and I just canceled my service last night. In 2016, I was sent a tech on a Saturday morning who dragged his feet for two hours doing who knows what. At the end of the two hours he asked if he could look at my connection in my room and offered to hook up a line for free. I agreed and stayed in my living room with my young daughter.
After about five minutes I started wondering why he had been in there that long and decided to check on him. I found him laying in my bed with his eyes closed. I asked him what he was doing and he explained that he was killing time because he had driven an hour away to get to my house and wanted to get paid for the entire hour. He sat up and blatantly asked me if I was single. On my life, this actually happened! I asked him to leave and, stupidly, did not report his odd behavior.
In 02/2017, I moved into my house which was 10 miles away from the apartment that I had service at for four years. Both locations are inner city with no reason to have awful reception, however since the move, I have had nothing BUT issues with the reception. I have had multiple techs in my home to evaluate the issues and none have seemed to pinpoint exactly what causes the multiple, hours long, outages. The only "reimbursement" I received was one week of free service dating from when I called in the issue to my next statement, although, they admitted they could see that it began having unusually long, random outages in January 2017 that reached days of no service.
At this time I decided to also speak to a representative regarding why my bill had been higher being that the promotional period had not lapsed. I was told the previous rep had signed me for a Latino package instead of the package I requested. I asked to cancel my services and he offered me another promotional and said it was the same package that I was currently on with the exact same channels and cheaper. I agreed to this package and found, when I returned home, that the rep had lied to me and that multiple channels that I watched were gone. I called back, spoke to a rep who put me on a 55 minute hold to speak to her manager, only to be "disconnected" when she came back to tell me that her manager had approved for those channels to be added back under my new current rate. I received no return call from the rep and, after waiting five minutes, called back in tears.
I had been on the phone, at this point, for a total of three HOURS with Comcast and had an awful headache. I told the rep who answered what had just happened with the previous call. I was told that the rep would not honor that even though I asked that she review the notes or contact the rep I had previously spoken to. She said she was not able to do that and I asked for her manager. At this point, she said no and hung up on me. I called back and spoke to a very nice male and asked to speak to the cancellation department. He tried to offer me something to stay but I explained what had happened that day, said, "No thanks," and was transferred.
The rep I was transferred to was nice and did offer me three months of HBO for free for my troubles. I decided, after speaking to her, that I would just say yes because I was exhausted with discussing my service and, worst case scenario, I would have enough time to find a new provider and would call back later that week to cancel. This completely slipped my mind and I hadn't thought of it until two weeks ago when, again, I was having issues with OnDemand and they wanted to, again, send a tech out. I agreed but then canceled it since it started randomly working a few days later. The last straw was last night on 05/10/18 when I returned home. I told my daughter she could watch Disney while I was cleaning up before bed. She flipped on the TV and noticed that Disney, Nik, and the Cartoon Channel were no longer available. I flipped through other channels and noticed that there were many more that were unavailable.
Assuming this was a mistake, I contacted customer service and, after being told that paper statements had been mailed out with the information attached that rates were increasing and channels were being taken away from my package, I decided enough was enough and requested to be transferred to cancellations one last time. I spoke to a male who, thank God, did NOT try to sugarcoat my issues and actually admitted that they were receiving high volumes of cancellation calls due to this very thing. I set up my cancellation for the end of this month and, honestly, I'm okay with that. If I need to pay more at another company who actually values their customers, will treat them right, not raise rates and change plans without the customer's permission... Then so be it... I WILL GLADLY PAY MORE!
I don't know the legalities that Comcast must hide behind in order to do the things they do but just because you "can" do it doesn't mean you SHOULD! In fact, I have researched this and found that there is a class action lawsuit against Comcast and I have signed my portion of it. I will also review everything with "Comcast" in it and file a BBB complaint. Companies and people screw people over because they are ALLOWED to but when enough people get pissed off enough... the numbers start growing and the voices are heard.
Comcast, you are a disappointment and the only regret that I have is that I did not cancel my account with you years ago. There are more important bills that are necessary to have and not one of them are as aggravating as yours. I hope that, one day, you learn to listen to and treat your customers correctly and maybe I would consider giving you an 80th chance but, until then, you are a demon in my book and I'm honestly just happy that I finally reached a rep who listened and didn't argue with me to stay.

My Comcast cable reboots all of the time. They have been out and have swapped out DVR's and find no other problems. Their customer service is awful, they all seem to have an attitude. I recently called regarding my pricing that was really high and the Comcast Rep said she would be happy to reduce it. She took my home number just in case we got disconnected. After working with her for 20 minutes, we got disconnected. She NEVER called me back like she said she would and I did not hear back from her or anyone else from Comcast. I even wrote in about this and did not receive any replies back. This is typical Comcast. I am looking at other options, I have had enough of Comcast's attitude.

I was getting ready to move in the next month or two... Someone was vandalizing my property and cut my cable wires. I called them and explain to them what was going on and ask them if there was anything I could do about the situation if not then go ahead and have somebody come fix it. They told me they could suspend my account until I moved and then started up like if no time had of her past and I would not be charged her build until they restarted the account. I thought that was great because it would also save them money and my time of having somebody constantly come out and fix the line for the next month or two every time I got cut. I got moved within the next month or two and called them to reconnect service.
And all of a sudden it was almost $1,000 for them to come out and connect my service and they would not until the amount was paid. I asked him why and explain to them about the conversation I had with their employee. And of course supposedly nothing was documented. And now because it's been a month or two they also inform me that I now own their boxes and cannot even return them. So not only do I have to pay for the months that were not used but I have to pay for the boxes that I now own but can never use??? So they are very untrustworthy. They tell you one thing they don't document it, or I believe they never document it so that they can turn around and scam you and charge you all this money!
It's funny the day I had the conversation with the first lady months prior she told me she was documenting everything in her computer then all the sudden there's no documentation and now they want $1,000 to turn my TV's back on but I also have to pay for the boxes that I now own. They're no longer rented??? Scam!!! Comcast did a similar thing where the worker reinstalled at a new house, he sat the box next to the front door that he was supposed to take with him when he left. Then he didn't take it.
He left it right there next to the door! I contacted Comcast who told me to return it to a store on Lake Worth Road where I lived. I returned it to the store, I had the returned paper for several years and nobody ever called me about the box and then all the sudden 10 years later when I was going to try them again they never received the box and now I owe them a ton of money for the box that their employee purposely left at my house. That I called them about and turned in and kept the paper for many years and then ten years later all of a sudden I'm supposed to have this paper with me and the box is missing??? Mind you the box was not even a box that they used anymore it was a very old box. That's why they were supposed to take that one that day because it was an old box and they replaced it with the upgraded box.
The boxes have been upgraded like 3 times or more times. But I'm supposed to pay them hundreds of dollars for a box that they got back and that is 10+ years old that they don't even use anymore to get service connected. Mind you that box was never brought up for several years that I use their company after that incident. Scam!!! Yes. Why would you need a 10+ year old box. That the company would have trashed when it was returned 10 plus years ago because they upgraded and had new boxes. And why would I be being charged hundreds of dollars for a box that they threw away and definitely would have thrown away???
It's absolutely ridiculous what these companies try to do to people especially hard working people that the cable companies charge way too much for their cable and these people barely make enough to survive! Then they scam them with some BS like this on top of it!!! So there are 2 companies right there that tried to scam me!!! And I've heard stories like this from other people, and these other people are people that I believe there are some that I wouldn't believe but these people I would.

We made it abundantly clear that the location we were setting up at was temporary so we did not want a contract. Caroline informed us that wasn't a problem and that in the event we moved somewhere there was no service there was no obligation. Sure enough, we are moving and now they say we have a 3 year YES THREE YEAR contact and we have a cancellation fee. I firmly told them that with Trump's tax cuts and the money they scam out of people they will have to find another way to pay for their bonuses because I was not going to pay them and I would go to small claims court. I am sure they will not be flying someone out to small claims court because it would cost them a lot more money than it would to just cancel the service that we couldn't use.
These people gave us a phone number that belonged to a psychiatric Dr who was linked to it, must be every single medical center in the entire USA. We had calls coming in every 5 minutes literally and it made it impossible to do any work. We literally has spent thousands of dollars on advertising, signage etc and it was wasted because we could not use the phone. If they check their records they will see the phone wasn't used. We couldn't. It was impossible.

Telephone service is also very expensive and not as reliable as old landline companies. Comcast charges a premium for a modem battery to maintain telephone services during power outages. Bring back Ma Bell!

Comcast sucks. They are horrible due to their monopoly. I hate Comcast. They have billed me for a place I didn't live and kept trying so hard to get me to pay. I had to get to the Utilities Board. They help new unproven customers and screw long term customers who pay on time. Their pricing is odd.

With the exception of an occasional power outage, Comcast has delivered great service. Their M-1 equipment feature is very good and there's a good selection of HD stations. Excellent service during the last three years in Roseville (and I've tried DirecTV with lousy reception and even worse customer service rating). Comcast's service can be scheduled within one day and is scheduled within a two hour window (compared to DirecTV's whenever they get there). Replacement equipment can be ordered within a day or two or replaced at their local store the very same day (i.e damaged remote, upgrade modem, etc...). Comcast offers many choices of plans (i.e. Cable, Internet, Landline & Security) with great discounts with loyalty customers.

Prices keep going up & service continues to decline. I have been a customer with this provider for 20 years & receive no loyalty discount whatsoever. Yet, a new customer can receive the same service I currently have for 1/3 the cost...

The Comcast Cable Service constantly twist the verbiage to try and confuse you to buy a bigger package. You have to pay for every single little device. A $60 package will cost more than $100 guaranteed. If you have multiple TVs plan to add a minimum of $10-20 for each one.

Comcast has been an absolutely horrible experience. My service is sporadic at best and customer service is horrific. I have had 4 different service technicians out and STILL, my service is in and out. My bill is outrageous and after several calls, I was not able to get any kind of credit for the days that I had no service at all. I know that I am not the only one that has had terrible experiences with Comcast but the problems always seem to fall on deaf ears. I have cancelled my service since my contract was finally up and I WILL NOT use them again!

Call them about lowering my bill. They told me that there was no plan that cost less than the one I had which was an outright lie. They never told me that I could purchase separately or I could remove something from the bundle. There was a whole arrangement of 3 way bundles to a bundles and separate services. They raised my service pricing and did not even alert me about it.

I wish they would lower the rate and help out more customers, with more channels for a cheaper price and be more nice to Individuals when they call about their bills too. I have had some bad experiences. They do not like working with their customers on bills and neither do they like extensions. They will cut you off before the date You are due and they will also charge more to get the service back on and a fee and late charges are due upon the same day also? You cannot catch up on Your bill If You continue to have to pay late fees and other charges. They are just racking up fees and getting extra money too. Something needs to be done about them right now. It is getting Ridiculous.

In the past few months, I have had several outages that have lasted from 2 to up to six hours without explanation from the company. One problem is when there is an outage I lose cable, internet, wifi and landline since all are provided by one company. They have no problem gradually increasing fees and costs over the years but never considering reimbursing customers for loss of service time.

Every time I sign a contract and agree to pay a certain amount each month, it never fails that no matter the length of the contract, Comcast always raises my price for the monthly bill, sometimes 2-3 times during the period of the contract.

Comcast Cable Service is the only service offered where I live. My internet experiences momentary drops several times a day. I was without cable for almost a week and had trouble getting them to respond. They made three appointments and never showed up for any of them. They doubled their price as soon as the old contract expired.

You cannot contact the provider ever. If you call them you get a recording. I have tried to get a service person to my home and the record is nine broken appointments. This is usually due to outsourcing the work to independent contractors, who state they contacted you and “you were unavailable” or you called and said not to come. They held me hostage for an entire Saturday from 9-6 only to be told by Comcast that they came and I wasn’t home. This is impossible since I’m in a gated community. Last year during Hurricane Irma I contacted them about an uncovered base that is presently exposed to the elements. I have since called them four more times. It’s still open after almost a year. Since I am in a gated condominium community I can’t change my provider. I’m in a monopoly not of my choosing.

Comcast is a large company that deserves no respects because of its systematic failures in customer service. Cheating customers seem to be the tradition that Comcast holds steadfast to. For example, in my case, after closing my account with Comcast in good standing (no balance due), Comcast "made a mistake" in billing and sent my account to a collection agency. That resulted in a bad mark on my credit history. Then when I found out, I contacted Comcast immediately, but it took Comcast several weeks to straighten this mess out.
They apologized over the phone but when I asked for a letter with an apology, they ignored my requests completely! The only letter I got was a one from the collection agency saying my account "was closed"! I have never received the requested letter but meanwhile, my credit score was damage! So, watch out! Comcast can be very abusive, reckless, and disrespectful to their customers. They think they are so big you can't possibly hold them accountable. Let's prove them wrong: AVOID being a victim of Comcast!

Cable providers feel they have a license to steal. The service is grossly overpriced, and of the channels I get, most of them are lousy. In order to get "better", I'd have to pay a lot more. They charge a monthly fee to have a 2nd box, and that is thieving also. They had a "deal" for new customers, a significant savings. I went in person to inquire about this. I told them I would like this deal too; that I have been a loyal customer & feel I should also get this reward. No way. It's that simple. No negotiating, no way were they going to reward a long time, loyal customer. Fees for this and fees for that. It's ridiculous and sickening. It's also difficult to figure out. They charge fees & often I don't even know what they're for.
Out of all the basic cable choices, TLC shows the fat show half the time, I'm sick of the food channels, don't care to see dog shows night after night, etc., and I can't afford to pay $40. a month more for a few extra channels. In VT, there are few choices, Fairpoint is even worse, and people I know who have Dish are not that happy either. For Comcast, the value is pretty bad, mediocre at best. Consumers should be allowed to pick & choose their channels, without it costing an arm & a leg. SO many of the shows on TV are so stupid. In conclusion: WAY overpriced, under quality, and mediocre at best. I'm not impressed.

I think the charge way too much for what you get. I think there should be one central box where the cable connects to then you connect all your tvs to the box. It should not matter how many tvs you have. You are already paying for the system. You should not have to pay for each connection or rent the equipment. They require the boxes to get their system. It should all be a part of their package not separate fees it`s like they nickel and dime you every way they can.

Comcast Cable is nothing but a money grabbing conglomerate looking at nothing other than its bottom line. We live in an area that only has Comcast, and they will not give you a break on any of their prices, unless you threaten to quit, and ONLY after you have told them to stop your service will they get back to you with a token price drop good for only a year, at most. If we had the home angle that would support installing a dish on the roof, I'd do it in a minute even if we had to pay more money each month. We have a 2D home in CT and get three times as many channels from our provider there, for less than 1/2 the price we pay in MA.

The reliability and customer Service are the two areas that Comcast is lacking in. When I had cable first installed in the house after we purchased it in 2016, I was told by the installer that the existing cable in the house would not work with their service. With the shape of the roof and how the crawlspace is arranged, the installer also told me that he couldn’t run the new cable in the attic. He ran white cable around the bottom of our house that is painted a butterscotch color. I am having to constantly reboot the modem to get the internet to start back working and this is a new modem/router.

The selection of channels and programming in general is excellent. The customer service has been very consistently excellent and it has improved since Comcast took over from Time Warner.
