    Comcast might be best described as an adventure over the last eight or nine years here. I have experienced rate and promotion snafus with regard to costing, mechanical breakdowns with equipment replaced over and over and think I have had physical contact with techs from as far away as West Palm Beach on the other Coast...

    Throughout the various frustrations, I have had one ace to play in the new billing office who has been honest and forthright and noteworthy thru it all... (It helps to have someone that can decipher what might be best described as gobbledygook). Really don't want to test the fates as on a particularly good run here the last six months or so... My speed doesn't seem to where it's claimed to be but the huge seasonal influx here in SWFL simply has to tax the platform in some shape or fashion. Not a tech by any means but going on performance of four year old Dell unit at certain times of the day... New billing cycles installed starting next month for some odd reason I am yet to grasp and of course the push on the Xfinity features and benefits, most of which will have little impact on my viewing habits... Err profile So no doubt lots to learn, grasp and comprehend. Wish me luck!

    Last month (August), we tried to make a partial payment to Comcast. I didn't have enough money to make a full payment at the time due to having to spend all of my previous money on bills, and for paying for healthcare expenses out of pocket. The people at the Comcast center wouldn't accept our payment, even after we explained everything that went on, and we had no choice but to not pay it off and lose our internet service. (Which to be clear, the bill was $196, and we offered to pay $100 at the time. And keep in mind, we've been consistently making payments and paying them off every month as well.)

    Fast forward to a month later, and I finally had enough money to pay them off. Only to discover that, on top of the $152.69 we paid them, we also had to pay an extra $100 in the form of a security deposit, in order to get our internet turned back on. This is a new policy they've implemented, and I was not informed of this until now. And given as I said before, we've been consistently making payments to them prior until they cut us off, it's also unfair they cut us off like that and are forcing us to pay a security deposit in order to get the internet turned back on. The truth is, Comcast doesn't really care about you. They are leeches who suck as much as they can from their customers, and will hold you upside down until they can extract every drop of blood out of you. They are terrible, and I wish we had some actual competition in this area so I wouldn't have to put up with them anymore.

    Comcast is a very poor and unethical company. They advertise they'll contour to the customer's time schedule. That is a huge false advertisement because they do not. Although Comcast knows their customer's signal is very poor such as 65% and not 100%, Comcast still continues to charge the Customer 100% signal service costs. Also, they seldom if ever provide the customer with an accurate and valid bill. You have to call them literally every month to correct the bill. I did and still do. Because Comcast has monopolized my apartment community cable service I have no other option except to continuously tolerate Comcast's poor services, dishonesty and wrongfully charging for services they're not fully providing OR move to another living community. The FTC needs to get Comcast back on track to ethical services, business and customer relations.

    Forgetting about the cost of the service, when it is working, it's great. When it stops, for whatever reason, the problems often can't be overcome quickly. It takes a minimum of 30 minutes of talking with one to three techs before any issue can be resolved... Often it's more. Some folks have good expertise, others do not or are from a different culture and just don't understand requests.

    I had Comcast install internet and they kept canceling my installation date without notification and for no reason. I had to contact somebody in the head office before I could get the service connected and even then there were problems. After being connected, I discovered they did not give me the correct plan. I asked for the 50 mbps plan while they had given me the 25 mbps instead which is much slower. I canceled my service within the 30 days and went with another provider. Comcast is overrated and a ripoff, but at least they refunded the full amount I had to pay upfront for service. I wasn't told I had to pay in advance either. Most Internet Service Providers will put it on the first bill.

    I signed up online last night for the internet only package. I created my account online as well and when I signed in it shows that I have a TV package as well. I did not sign up for TV. I have tried calling 3 times and each time I get a very rude rep who gives me even more confusing information and prices that I don't even see on my account. The last rep started yelling at me.

    I have been having multiple problems with Comcast Cable Xfinity. Every time I turn around my cable is pixelating. I call and ask for a signal as I've been told mine is weak. But recently when I called I got a crazy person who sent a signal that said it was updating my subscription, I explained this was wrong but the lady assured me it was a normal signal but afterward I lost many channels, l called the Comcast hotline number given to me by Comcast corporate for the fact I constantly have issues they were obviously tired of dealing with so they foisted me off on the hotline number to people who try really hard nicely to rectify the problems just usually aren't able.

    So then they send some tech out who has no idea what's going on. They check and tell you no problem can be found. Which of course is true as the problem originated at their office not my home. So I've contacted the FTC. And the Utility Commission since Comcast can't no should I say won't rectify their issues. I get so very tired of dealing with this daily seems like they would fix it. I've told them I believe they single me out to mess up my cable. The agent assured me the company is too large to do that. Don't think so. One individual person I've gotten angry and told off could be annoying me and I truly believe it's possible. You have no idea how many employees I've dealt with, argued with and stressed my issues to.

    Comcast is a love-hate proposition for me and while they generally get whatever fixed, there might be a great amounts of patience involved. Have now found how to best resolve these issues and it certainly isn't over the phone. That's just one black hole after another. I now go to the station and explain my issue with far more empathetic folks and it generally gains a point of resolution. What I fear most with Comcast are the anticipated behaviors in the event we lose Net Neutrality. Talk about "Oh Dear" moments...

    We are on the "end of the line" & for several yrs. Comcast was here on a regular basis because our service was so poor. I'm handicapped so when Comcast would be working at our house, if I needed to return something to them, I'd ask the technician to do that. Not a problem. But over 3 yrs. ago, our daughter moved out & a technician returned the box for me. They've been charging that to us ever since. They implied we would be refunded our money for the product we paid for, yet still have not gotten a check nor heard a word from them. It's hard to respect a company who does not honor this in spite of the PROOF that the box went back into service in 2013!

    Each time I have called Comcast/Xfinity, the representatives are always polite and respectful. Originally I called to change our service to only phone and internet. The deal I found online said we could get both for $59, the representative told me that deal is only for new customers, it is not open to existing customers. This is frustrating considering we were paying customers who were completely satisfied with Comcast/Xfinity, but simply wanted to change our service. After wanting to make that change we continued to have problems with changing our service.

    Unfortunately, each time I call, they tell me I am not on the account. While logged in on our Xfinity account online I am even a user on our account, yet each representative tells me I am not on the account. Despite being told I am not on the account, they only tell me I am not on the account when I want to make changes to the account that reduce the amount of money they will receive with us. When I called to add services, no one questioned me being on the account. When I called to cancel our account the representative told me I was not authorized, when I spoke with her supervisor, she stated that I was in fact on the account and she cancelled our service. I had to call back to put a hold on the cancellation until we could get AT&T to install and when I called back to continue our service, again the representative never questioned if I was on the account.

    A week later when I called back to cancel our service, the representative told me I was not on the account, I asked to speak with his supervisor, she stated that I was not on the account. I hung up. I called Xfinity back less than a minute later and talked with a separate representative and she stated I was on the account and then transferred me to the department I needed to speak with in order to cancel my account, and they again said I was not on the account. I told her the previous representative I had spoken to had verified that I was on the account she put me on hold, came back and said she was able to use existing notes from a previous call (one in which they verified I was on the account).

    Overall, it appears to me that either Xfinity is disorganized and some representatives are not able to see full account information (which I deem highly unlikely) or they have a lack of integrity in their business when they will lose money and claim I am not on the account when in fact I am. I would never recommend Comcast/Xfinity simply as a result of this lack of integrity or disorganization because I wasted too much time on the phone hearing I was not an authorized account holder when I was. Needless to say we have discontinued our service with Comcast/Xfinity because they seems like a poor way of doing business and we would rather give our money to a service that values integrity and truly helping paying customers first. I will say there representatives were always polite.

    We've had Xfinity for about four years. I live in Tooele so our options are limited. We can't just switch. However, I work from home and my internet is how I work. At least once a month my internet will be down and I will call the line and hear that the service is down and that it will be up at such and such time. This morning it was supposed to be up at 10. But I just called because it's 10 and it's not up, and now it's not going to be up until 1:30. Because of this, I'm missing a whole day of work. I'm going to have to work either late into tonight or this weekend. If I was going to use it as day off, this is not the day that would work - halfway through the day on Wednesday.

    On top of that, this endangers my job. This makes me look unreliable. If I'm not reliable, then my job won't keep me. They'll hire someone else. If this happened once or twice a year, you know, sometimes things are understandable. But it happens monthly and I'm getting pretty fed up. I don't have a choice. There aren't a lot of high speed internet companies who service Tooele. But if you have a choice, go with a different company. Every time they can't maintain their service properly, they cost me money. It's not just an inconvenience, it's my livelihood.

    I thought the service was bad when I owned my house. When I went in to pay my bills, there was ALWAYS an elderly person in front of me confused about why their service had changed and they were being charged more for less of what they wanted. When we got the higher speed internet, it only ACTUALLY gave us the lower speed - and when we talked to them about it after several attempts to fix it, the lady told me they didn't actually have to deliver the promised speeds. That it could be "up to" the promised speeds, but they weren't going to care anymore about the issue. Automatic billing is a trap, so is renting their equipment. Because they up the charges without warning every few months, and the equipment can, apparently, be outdated for the service you are getting without two technicians coming to your house and NOTICING THAT FACT.

    But now? Oh, now it's WORSE. Because I'm renting. And when we set up the internet, the problem was on their end. They admitted it on the phone and in person. But they took OVER A WEEK to show up, even though I told them that I work from home and needed the hours/paycheck. They did not refund the 180 I lost in income during that week and made it sound like a favor not charging us for the time we didn't have their service.

    And NOW I'm losing another 100 dollars because of losing the connection for about a second every minute or two. Nothing wrong in their system, they say. And if the technician comes out and sees that it's not their fault, we'll have to get charged for that too. Even though I've checked multiple computers and multiple networks, and it is very clearly an internet connection on their end. And the worst part is that the company is SO bad it's afraid of any sort of competition in the area, and has a stranglehold monopoly on my livelihood. I need this job to live and pay rent, and they have cost me almost a month's rent in work when I haven't even lived here two months!!!

    I had an issue with my Comcast Xfinity internet going out. I followed the Comcast Xfinity app trouble shooting steps without success. I contacted the Comcast Xfinity technical support through the app. (The app is good - that is why they get one star.) This technical support operator also conducted trouble shooting without success. He felt the problem was with my internet box. I offered to take the unit to my local Comcast/Xfinity store. He stated that it would be better if I scheduled for a technician to come out and look for the issue. I had several issues with missed Comcast Xfinity technician appointments when I set up my service in September 2015 (my service started in November 2015 - two months later because of this) so I asked again if he was sure I shouldn't just go to the local store. He confirmed no.

    I agreed to setting up an appointment. At the end of the call he stated that I MAY incur some charges if the technician found the lack of service was not a Comcast Xfinity issue. The technician came on time and found that the problem was with the Comcast / Xfinity signal strength. He fixed THEIR issue and left. When paying my bill - I found I was charged $60 for a service call. I called the billing line and was told that the only thing that could be done was to offer me was a $20 credit and 3 months of a movie channel. Or she could submit a ticket to a supervisor for further review to possibly get a full refund. I asked if I could speak with a supervisor instead.

    I was transferred to a supervisor who proceeded to tell me the following things: 1) All service technician calls are $60, even if the issue is with the service provided by Comcast / Xfinity. 2) It is company policy that Comcast Xfinity will not issue a refund regardless that their staff did not disclose this when scheduling the appointment. 3) Escalating to a supervisor only offers Comcast Xfinity a training opportunity to maybe correct false statements for future subscribers.

    Comcast Xfinity staff (knowingly or unknowingly) are scheduling service calls under the pretense that you MAY be charged, not that you WILL be charged. I was told by the supervisor that Comcast Xfinity has set the following as corporate policies that are non-negotiable. 1) Regardless of the issue - if a service call is issued for your location - even if the service issue is that of Comcast Xfinity - the customer pays $60. In other words - you are paying for their staff (or contractor) to fix their error. 2) Even if their staff did not make you aware of the charges upfront - they will not issue you a credit. They will review the call and talk to the staff member. That means that they will be able to confirm that the staff member did not divulge the charges upfront and that they do not care enough to honor customer's rights or let alone just conduct a fair business practice. If these are set as "Corporate Policies" then this must be a frequent error.

    I moved to new address, I was referred by my Lease holder to take the Comcast. It is very good. I thought it would be good and spoke with them, when I spoke with them, they were nice and they said "you will be charged $55/Month" but now I received the first bill $65.13/Month. I just called the customer representative. He is saying that "You have TV channels. That's why you are charged $10 extra." I told him I don't need TV channels and I don't want to pay for that, then he started talking very rude. I used to like Comcast but now I started hating the services.

Plus my cable is constantly on off like there were some bad storms when there's not. If you're going to advertise fast internet or good cable you should make sure it is what you're providing.

    I bought a prepaid modem two weeks ago. I was then told once a modem came that a technician had to come out. Detection came out to make sure the installation was properly done only for a technician to come out to realize that the modem that I purchased was not was broken. Been calling customer service on eight occasions. Can't seem to get anyone to tell me exactly when I'm getting my modem. They first told me they gave me a tracking number. Come to find out just today that's the tracking number is actually a order number so customer service is very incompetent.

    Can't seem to reach a supervisor. They tell you they can't locate one. I'm just so frustrated with this prepaid internet service and now I've just been told that my second modem is sitting in the warehouse, hasn't been shipped out but I was told last week that it was shipped out on Tuesday so I'm truly frustrated so now they're telling me they don't know when it's going to be shipped out some day next week.

One time a representative told me they don't even do callbacks so they don't know why I was told that. I was told my bill was fixed and it never was so I had to call back again and again. I was accused of stealing service when I called the third time to let them know my service still has not been cancelled as I requested. I could go on for an hour about each painful interaction but I'm not saying anything that you don't already know.

    This company uses their size to manipulate customers and misrepresent their product. They do not provide the services that you are purchasing. The streaming service is inadequate and does not work without extremely high speed connection. Therefore remote streaming is useless. My service at home is always far less speed than I am paying for according to Xfinity Speedtest website. I just believe that this corporate culture is based on deception and using customer service as a corporate dodge from actually providing the services that they sell you. Comcast in short is a consumer scam. They are so large that some agency like Consumer Affairs must be assigned the task of monitoring ALL of their services to ensure that the cheating of customers does not continue.

And they refund credit but almost two weeks no service.

After 12 hours on the phone it was finally straightened out but the customer service was terrible.

    I signed up 2 years ago on 08/08/2015 and yes of course was locked into a 2 year contract. The 30 day money back guarantee is a joke, they do not stand behind the guarantee. When I signed up I was promised a price lock for the 2 years on a contract and was given a complete description of the bundle over the phone with the representative when I agreed to sign up. I was told I would receive an email confirming the agreement and contract. However the email I received was not the same information that was told to me over the phone. While on the phone with the representative I wrote down all the information that was given to me regarding the bundle I signed up for.

    Of course I tried to call that representative back but you never get the same person when you call back and the person who answers the phone will not try to get you over to that person, so you are stuck trying to explain everything to the new representative who promises to fix the issue. They gladly give you their name but names do not matter because no one is held accountable for the errors made or the promises to fix the errors.

    I signed up on 08/08/2015 and tried for several weeks to get these issues resolved but with no success. For the next couple of weeks I was unable to take care of matters because of a family member that tragically passed away and I had to travel to Idaho to take care of family matters. Upon returning I tried again to get issues resolved and finally reached an executive in the company who issued a credit to us and got the issue resolved and everything was good for about 3 months and then it all started all over again from there. Every 2 months I was receiving a bill for more and more and more. It started out that I would be paying $119.00 per month for 2 years which included a home security monitoring system for the additional per month or my package would of only been $109.00 per month.

    I tried to understand the first couple months of billing as they were telling me that there was a pro-ration, then they were saying that there is a separate charge for everything on top of the $119.00. Even though my package bundle stated it included HD services they were still billing me $10.00 per month for HD services. I called and called and called, they would promise to fix the bill which would last 1 to 2 months then it would start all over again. Everytime I would call it would waste over an hour of my time with promises of resolve, yet nothing would ever get fixed.

    My home security system worked for about 2 months then it would stop working, techs would come out to fix it but fix would only last about a week, so those service calls ended up being a complete waste of time, they never could get it to work, but I was locked into a contract for 2 years even if it didn't work. My bill went from a promised 2 year price of $119.00 per month to $171.00 per month. They said I would pay a penalty to break my contract but they didn't have to stick to their end of the contract, they could raise their prices anytime they wanted to.

    Well my contract is up On August 8, 2017, I received my new bill on July 31, 2017 showing the new price would be $207.23 per month and bill was for period 08/08/2017 to 09/07/2017. I called to have my services cancelled and turned off on 08/07/2017 at midnight because I had already paid through 08/07/2017. I received a call from the home security company showing that my monitor had been disconnected, out of courtesy, I called them back to let them know I cancelled my entire Xfinity account effective midnight 08/07/2017. They informed me that there was another error. It had been scheduled for 08/12/2017.

    I called back Xfinity and spent over 2 hours on the phone with them to get the disconnect date corrected. I know sooner hung up with them and they disconnected me right that moment. I called them back again because I was entitled to my cable through 08/07/2017, as I had already paid through that date. They refused to turn it back on until midnight without a reconnect fee. It was their error not following my instructions for disconnect time and date, not mine. I will also be filing a complaint with Better Business Bureau as no one should ever be treated this way or companies not standing behind their prices and or contracts. This review is true and all names and dates have been documented for verification.

    We have had problems with pixelation on our TV off and on for at least a year. We have had slow internet for at least 3 years now. I have had several technicians come to the house, new cable boxes and new modems. I had an appointment today set for 4 - 6. I was told they were going to put in a new cable from the post to the house and they were going to bring a new modem.

    The technician came to the house 4 hours early without calling first. Good thing we were home. It started with him blocking our neighbor's driveway. We asked him to move. He said "That's ok, I won't be here that long." We told him that he was early and from that point things just got worse. We told him that we were supposed to get a new cable from post to house and a new modem. NO on both. He stated that we didn't need a new cable. We needed a amp added to our cable in the house. This was going to help our TV signal. I asked him again about the cable and he said no.

    I called customer service. I told them what was going on and I told the tech that I was talking to customer service. He said he didn't care who I was talking to. I even put him on the phone with customer service. He finally did put a new cable from the pole to the house. He moved my furniture around on his own without asking. The worst is he moved the carpet from under a very heavy cabinet. (No cables are back there) and didn't put it back. I had to do it on my own.

    So now we get to the internet. I told him that I had gone to Xfinity Speed Check, and got low numbers. He said that he never uses the Xfinity test. He uses some other app. Anyways. He powered down, reset the modem. Checked his speed check app and said it was good. While he was here I showed him how slow it was. It even logged out because it took so long to download. Didn't do anything else. As he was leaving he said "Do you still want a new modem?" I said "Yes." He said he would have to go get one. That was 2 1/2 hours ago.

    I called back customer service and explained what happened. They said they couldn't do anything because the ticket was still open. They however would reboot the modem. I told them never mind. This had been done so many times. BTW. My bill is $227 a month. We pay extra for sports channel, Recording box and higher speed. Every time you call you get yessed to death but nothing changes.

    I got Xfinity X1 4-5 months ago. Although it has some weak points vs. the old system (like the inability to expand very narrow movies), in general X1 is a HUGE improvement over the old system. BUT... it has one annoying characteristic: It slows your ability to open websites on your computer. Some attempts even result in a perpetually turning circle (my browser is Chrome)/never connects. Other times if you interrupt the turning circle by hitting the stop icon, then immediately hit the reload icon, it connects to the site immediately. Go figure. A tech rep was here yesterday to try to figure out why this was happening. He admitted that X1 involves some kind of filter that keeps the signal to the DVR from interfering with other DVRs in the area, and that filter may also sometimes mistake a request to connect to a site with an unwanted intrusion.

    The filter is also apparently responsible for some strange email behavior. If I put any email address with an aol.com domain in it in the Bcc: box, it bounces: "Permanent error". If I put the address in the To: box, it goes out, no problem. But some days, aol.com addresses in the Bcc: box go out fine; but most days, "Permanent error". I thought maybe I should try using Comcast mail, but it has a list of problems that would make this review way too long.

Called Comcast to update the root with the Mac address and they said the mac address was already existing. Got a new Zoom 5345 from the manufacturer. That one updated fine. Continued to have problems with drops and slow speeds.

    Bought a Tenda AC1200 router and set up. The problems still persist. 2 technicians have been to the home and although we are not sure, "software upgrades" was a term that was used. We wonder if the software upgrades are throttling service to force upgrades in service. We have had Magic Jack (since 2008) for years without crackling with our Comcast internet service that is not as long and suddenly every device in our house is getting drops. We've actually had more devices connected to our wifi last year than we do today without any issues and today we have dual band adapters to take advantage of the 5 GHz band. Something is up with Comcast.

    Our third technician visit is scheduled for Monday and we are not holding our breath. Public wifi, overloaded nodes are the issue. It's infrastructure and it's not keeping up, in fact we believe that the public wifi is the major cause of the problem. Who wants to connect to a public wifi when they are at home? This is a major throttling effort. Be warned. Comcast, should be the steadiest service out there. It's worse than satellite and on par with smoke signals.

    We use our account for everything. The other night - I noticed all of my emails from July 17 back were gone. Just disappeared. I thought maybe it was having trouble loading, and waited till morning to check. Even logged on elsewhere. Gone. So I called. Was told to download their email app. That produced the same results - my email was gone. I was told it would take some more time. Never got a call back. Two day later I called. Problem on their end - they couldn't get into any accounts. Called the next day (today). Was told there is no way they can restore the emails. They are asking me to remember the emails that are gone. Really - can you remember all of the emails you get in a inbox? Thank God we don't do online billing. I'm not sure what I can do or if there is a better email provider. But I will look.

    This is NOT a review of any particular store offering Xfinity. This is in reference to Xfinity's billing department - which is a NIGHTMARE!! If there were an option for ZERO Stars I would have selected that! When we first signed up for Xfinity's internet service we were offered a "special" rate of $64.37 (total). After one year, we received a notice that the special offer had expired. We were instructed to call to renew the special which we did - 6 TIMES in about a week! EACH AND EVERY TIME we called we were assured by the person who answered our call (6 different people) that the original rate was re-instated. We would then receive an email "confirming" our new rate.

    In the emails we received after each call the new rates listed included: $96.32, $91.32, and $88.61. None of the emails showed the rate promised to us by ALL of the customer service reps with whom we had spoken ($64.37). On our most recent call, (call #7) after several minutes of accomplishing nothing with the customer service agent we were referred to the "Loyalty Dept." The gentleman who answered in that department proceeded to inform us that their "system was down" and that he would not be able to help for an unknown period of time. As it stands at the time of this writing, after numerous phone calls and much wasted time, our situation has still not been resolved. If you are considering switching to Xfinity - do your research! We are now looking to switch our internet provider.

    I purchased a new home where Comcast Xfinity is the only provider of Internet services. I've had the service for a month and a half and of that time I've actively had internet for 7 days. Every day begins the same. No services or spotty at best. Forget calling customer service as they only want to send a signal to restart your modem. One day they actually restarted my modem 56 times. My modem and equipment is fine, it's the service that is the problem. I took my equipment to my other home where a different provider supplies services and everything worked great. Comcast sent out a technician who pulled into my driveway and pinged my modem then knocked on my door stating "Your internet is fixed." He didn't check the exterior lines. He told me there was no need to as I currently was showing signal. Wouldn't you know it? The second he left my internet was again out.

    I call and complain daily only to be met with the same tired old story of "Have you restarted your modem?" Then followed up with "Let's do that now." Following the script they're provided they then say "I'll need to schedule a technician to come to your home; there will be a service fee for the call". Those service calls are always set off at least 3-4 days because they've got so many other calls on their schedule already. I believe that Comcast makes as much money from service calls as it does providing bogus internet services. You'd be better off burning your money in a fireplace to cook with than purchasing internet services from them as both are useless.

I wanted to have my service as soon I move in since I work in IT area and my toddler watches cartoons online. Installer did not show up that day. I had to beg for getting service - Call center located overseas. They did not help. Installer came 5 days later. I have ordered internet which cost $39.99 + Tax + Equipment rental $10.00 per month. After receiving my bill, I had to pay over $100.00 for installation charge and OTHER FEES.

    They don't tell you what other FEES are! 2nd billing cycle, I have noticed they are charging me $49.99 per month. I asked WHY? They said sorry and "adjusting the bill and we will give you a better package where you will pay $29.99". Even cheaper! I was happy. Good customer service. Actually it was SCAM and sales technique just like WELLS FARGO did! I don't need and asked for TV service. Never asked for it. I called Xfinity/COMCAST on 07/12/2017. The guy was telling me that I have TV so they are charging now $60 plus others... I said TV streaming supposed to be free service and I never asked for additional service. There is a $7.00 charge for TV. WHY? The guy said it is for local TV provider. They charge Comcast and Comcast charge customers!! SCAM!! I don't need it, I don't watch local TV.

    COMCAST forcing customer to pay for local TV but WHY? Why do I have to pay? Comcast need to fix this issue. I just need $39.99 Internet service. That's ALL. DOLLAR AMOUNT ADDS UP. Imagine they are doing this to 100s of customer!! Charging extra money and many of us don't even understand the bill. Customer service are not clear about the charges. Who is doing this?

I want the service I ordered installed completed! I want my bill to reflect my actual disconnect and installation days! I want my bills to reflect the actual equipment at each location!

    Since 1992 I have had service in one my current homes provided by same company, with many different names which have morphed into the name of COMCAST. Soon it seems to become XFINITY. Through the years, one thing has been apparent, there is very little concern to provide contact with "customer service" that is anything remotely a pleasant experience for the "paying customer". Must be in quiet area or voice recognition will send you into "NEVER, NEVER LAND". It takes me almost three minutes to get a service person on the line, they apologize, assure me that they are different & my issues are still unresolved. When I call again, I have to start all over again because the notes from the previous call are not there or are not complete and they act as if it were my fault.

    I have a long list of ideas for improvement but it seems that the only thing COMCAST will eventually understand is the MASS exodus of THEIR customers which, based on ALL of my recent contacts, will happen soon. Some form of this entity has been bankrupted before and larger companies have failed! My internet service is critical. I am disabled supplementing my income with occasional jobs from home. I have been without this income for over a month! For the last two months, because of service issues CAUSED BY OTHER UTILITIES, my internet service has been basically non-existent. Over eleven (11) hours, yes hours I have spent on the phone with your "customer service". There are at least 3-4 more hours not listed! Many of my issues are still unresolved.

    I have a life and spending this much time with COMCAST is unacceptable especially since I do not see an end in sight! I have another account for my parents which was to be moved and that service is STILL incomplete! Billing information is incorrect and I was assured this was corrected!

    We were given a promotional offer for internet service, but were never told the period through which the promo/discounted internet rates would last. One day, without our consent they removed the offer and we were being charged without any discount, and the monthly rates shot up. This is a big scam company, making people join their internet services, but duping them with fraudulent charges without their consent. I called them to have this issue addressed. But, I was informed that the charges cannot be reverted and to have reduced monthly rates, I will have to cancel some services and internet speed will be reduced from 200 Mbps to 55 Mbps.

    They make us have their services at discounted rates and all of a sudden charge you with amounts that were never revealed when signing the contract. When mentioned that I can sue the company for fraudulent charges, they said that I can do whatever I like and they don't care about this and that they are aware of this issue which has been reported by many other customers. They are shameless people who have one of the worst customer satisfaction, and don't care until they keep on fooling their customers off their pockets.

    I am giving 0 stars. If you have any other choice... go with that. Do not go with Xfinity/Comcast! I have been a Comcast customer for over 10 years... not by choice. I recently bought a new home... but it took 4 months for me to live in it. I work at home and highspeed internet is a Must! When I started to disconnect from rental to new home, Comcast rep told me I would have service by end of March 2017. End of March came and went. I started calling every service that was available in this area... which was only satellite... not good. I was desperate, so I tried Hughesnet... That was a disaster. Slow even for minimal use.

    I called Comcast at end of March and was told 2 more weeks for service... By this time I had moved in with my parents in a city 3 hours away... to be able to work (renting office space would have been very costly). The time would come... and go... and another 2 weeks...

    I ended up talking to about 6 Comcast reps to no avail. They stopped answering my calls. Finally I googled Comcast complaints and saw a number to contact corporate... which I did. I was assigned a corporate customer service rep... he was getting info from the useless reps that stopped answering my calls... This issue was supposedly at the "escalation " level... Righhht... I was then told 2 more weeks... which came and... went... then was told "no idea when" and was explained to me how the "process of getting new service works and the problems with it." Ok. This just pissed me off more.. because... number 1... not my problem!

    My husband was very proactive at this point as we were closing in on 4 months of living separate and being inconvenienced. He talked to a tech who worked for a company that comcast contracted this particular part of job too... This tech explained what Needed to be done and Why there was a hold up... Not only were we a new subdivision BUT, we were being upgraded to the newest, latest and greatest... only one other city in the state had been upgraded... AND that they had Spare parts!!! The very part that had been ordered for our area and was used for a different area... Due to them having " more clout" So, with that information in hand I tell my corporate rep... which he just ignored...

    So I then email Ceo of comcast after filing complaint with FCC, telling him about my issue and the FCC complaint and the extra part. I received email back from executive office of national customer services... Shortly after that.... Gee... I never saw so many So determined to get the job done. 4 months after I initiated this I had service... and for my inconvenience, stress and money spent... what did comcast Do for me??? Oh... we will waive the installation fee.... Wow!!! I proceeded to tell the corporate rep that was ridiculous!! This is all my trouble was worth!!! That a company of this size couldn't do better! That had the FIRST Comcast rep or even the 2nd, 3rd rep would have Told my What was Really going on and that it would take 4 mos... all my stress and near heart attack moments from said stress Could Have been avoided....

    Corporate rep says he's going to talk to his supervisor (Right... most likely just taking a drink and pretending to talk to someone) comes back to phone to say that they would waive the installation fee and first month bill. And the asks if this ok... ummm... not much choice as my stress level already through the roof from all this. Comcast says they "Strive to Excel " in customer service... HA!!! They Failed on all Levels!!! So if you have other choices for internet... take it!!! ALSO, BEWARE, they plan to UPGRADE every COMCAST customer... if it took 4 mos of lies for me... who knows how long it will take for you!

    The quality of the internet service is satisfactory, though the speeds they advertise are extremely misleading. My plan is advertised at 75 Mbps bandwidth, but in real world use such as downloading large files I average about 8 Mbps and have never seen it exceed 12 Mbps. Pray you never need to contact their customer service, it is the worst of any company I have ever experienced. Their customer service representatives are very slow and incompetent in nearly all aspects of their job. When you move your service to a new address, Comcast makes you a new account and closes your old one. Of course they don't tell you this.

    Normally this wouldn't be much of an issue except when I moved instead of creating one new account they duplicated my account, creating two new accounts. But they only sent me billing statements for one of the accounts. It wasn't until months later when I got a call from a Collections Agency for the bill of the second account they created in error, that I learned of its existence. I promptly called Comcast. The first rep, whom you could tell English was his second language, had no idea what I was talking about when I informed him about this additional Comcast account that they had created in my name when I moved.

    After about half an hour he transferred me to another rep in the "movers" department who at first thought I was mistaken in claiming there was a billing error. After I repeatedly explained the situation to him and he finally realized that the Comcast rep who moved my service messed up and made a duplicate of my account when I moved. He assured me that I was not responsible for the bill the collections agency had called me about that and that the error was on their end. He told that I would be credited by his supervisor for the balanced on the second account and that it would be closed, further assuring me he would completely resolved the issue.

    Well he was wrong. About a month later I get another bill charging me for unreturned equipment on that second account they created in error in addition to a previous balance. The equipment they were charging me for was still in use on my actual account. As Comcast mistakenly duplicated my one account when I moved to a new apartment, they also duplicated the equipment on my original account. So not only were they charging me twice for the same service, they now were charging me for equipment they never gave me. Upon calling the rep and explaining the situation several times to them, they eventually understood the mistake they had made and once again assured me that it was an error on their part and that I was not responsible for any of the charges. That was yesterday, so I have yet to see if what the rep told me will hold true.

    Comcast is lucky they are the only high speed internet provider available at my current address otherwise I would have left them for one of their competitors because of this experience. Unless they demonstrate significant improvement in their customer service I will change to one of their competitors as soon as their service is available at my location. Additionally after I moved to my new apartment I called in to have my service activated at the new address, the first rep could not figure out why they couldn't activate my service frustrated after being on the phone with them for over an hour I asked to speak their supervisor who was finally able to determine that my apartment wasn't patched into Comcast's network.

    Over a two week period they sent two different technicians to my apartment, neither of whom could get my internet working. So I took matters into my own hands, after talking to my apartment managers I was able to gain access to the communications closet at my apartment and patched my room into Comcast's network myself and activated my service over the internet. Accomplishing by myself in 20 minutes what hours of waiting around on two Comcast technicians couldn't. Granted I have an IT background so I was somewhat familiar with comms closets. Maybe I've just had bad luck, but all of the Comcast customer service agents and service technicians I've had contact with have demonstrated moderate to severe incompetence. And for this reason I would purchasing their service if possible.

    This company is the only company we can use in Blacksburg, Virginia. To reach support one simply has the following options: Call: spend years going through an automated system that has no concept of anything other than referring to the website. Chat: a poor person sitting on the other side trying to explain a service that acts like a yo-yo on a good day. The service is totally unreliable. The best use for its highest speed is to be able to check your emails on February 29, every 4 years.

    I called them and asked if I can charge them the same fee they charge me for late payment. It would be fair if they give us credit or a penalty is imposed on them for taking our money and providing no service. Given the net neutrality & its repeal, Comcast is nothing but a pure extortion syndicate where they charge whatever they want, log all your traffic, sell your information, and when they don't want to service you simply drop the connection. Given they are the only game in town, the consumer has no protection or alternative. A complete monopoly with its traditional definition.

    I am having a such a bad experience with Comcast and it is kind of impossible to get the right info from customer service. I've been calling for one week and spoke to 5 different agent and I got 5 different answers from each individual. I was not expecting to cancel my service but I also did not expect to be misdirected.

    Before I had decided to get a service from Comcast, I called the customer service to make sure that I won't be charged more than $39.99 which I used to pay before with 75 mbps and they confirmed that I will not pay more than $39.99 which is included taxes. Once I called the 3rd agent to schedule a time for installation, he told me technicians will be installing the cable and although I told him that I am not using the tv and do not want to charge for tv, I was again told it is included in the package with no charge.

    Now what I am seeing in my first bill is $39.99 + $10.00 (speed increase which I never asked for) + $7.00 (Broadcast tv fee) + 7.53 (tv tax). Before I chose Comcast, wasted my hours to make sure I am not going to charged more than $39.99 and now I am wasting my time to explain the situation I have to every single person over the phone. I also called on Saturday to ask for the speed increase charge and cancel the TV and the lady told me to call the cancellation department on Monday and she said they will cancel the TV.

    On Monday, I called the cancellation department and I was told that they cannot cancel and he directed me to the other department. I waited 72 hours (which was the time period that they were supposed to contact with me) and called them again. This time, the other agent was telling me a different thing. I was misled from the beginning to be installed the service and wasted another 2 days to stay home. I am so disappointed with the terrible service and the misdirection.

My service stops working one day after the upgrade. I go a week with limited to no internet and having to reset tv everyday. I call, and advise them that based on what the tech said I need a different cable box to fix the tv, so they say they will send me "One". Wait a few days and get a big box with "Three" cable boxes, one small, one the same as I have and one that's 100 years old. I call tech when the little box they sent don't work and they tell me that box is the standard box. I need the premium one, then they tell me to install the one they sent me, to which I reply "this is the one." After they finally get the situation they offer me 3 choices, wait for another order, go into a store, or a tech. I ask for a tech to which she says "it will be 90 bucks but I can probably get customer service to refund that".

    The tech arrives a few days later, and brings the right box and ask why we have an old box and we inform Comcast sent it. He leaves and that night it messes up again. This was the last straw so checked with customer service who said I had until the 20th of June to cancel and I would be within my 30 days. I call customer service and tell them I want my service to end the 17th, enough time for me to get new service. So I get Verizon to install my service on the 16th of June and call again to confirm they cancel service to which they say "Yes sir, please return the equipment within 10 days." This was Saturday so we return it Monday and get a receipt which shows 6/19/2017 one day before the 30-day agreement.

    A week or so later I see my online account still shows active so I check and sure enough it's still active, while I dont have any equipment or anything. I call and they tell me it's still on, no one canceled it but they would. I then get a bill for June 17 through July 17th and a $230 early cancellation fee notice. So I call again and explain the situation, and the chat person sees where the contract started for Triple play on May 20th given me 30 days to cancel. She states I have to call in to have them cancel the fee, to which I do and they tell me they can't because I canceled on the 26th, 6 days later. So all in all I will have paid over 700 for 15 days of Comcast service, wasted 7 hours on the phone, and 4 hours on the chat system. Worst company in the world.

Their latest scheme is to "escalate" your complaint after you've spent hours with their support people and have ultimately scheduled a technician to come out. At that point, someone miraculously "solves" the problem, connectivity comes back on, and they call you to tell you "it's not Comcast". It's Comcast.

    So then they tell you that you don't need a tech appointment (one they plan to charge you for), but then the same issue happens in a week or two and it's the entire process all over again. Tomorrow the technician will come out and say they can find nothing wrong and it's not Comcast. Again. And I'll be here with a houseful of visitors with teenagers and have no internet service. I despise this company and wish someone with far more money than I would file a class action suit on behalf of all of us who have put massive amounts of time trying to resolve problems.

    I went into Richfield Comcast Xfinity on my mother's behalf. She needed her bill lowered. Couldn't afford $148 a month. I was well received and customer service rep I talked to was very helpful. We checked out her account and found a way to get it reduced to $113. He also handed me an upgraded box at no charge. Mom's been with them for a while. I ran back with paperwork showing her new bill, she was happy. A month goes by first bill is $160. Then $158 and $152. That's when she asked me why it's not going down. So I immediately called. I explained everything over the phone. He was saying she was under contract, which I replied "I have paperwork showing not under contract." Then he replies he didn't show that she was but she verbally had confirmed it. He later said he didn't see that either. I told him to cancel her TV internet. He told me he would put it on a hold to have us see if something could be done.

    I ended up calling back for a disconnect, this time I was told how sorry he was and told me he would see what he could do. He pretty much said he could take the telephone off. That save some. I said, "How much?" She never wanted or used it anyway. Then he says it will save you 8 dollars so the bill would be $152. I said, "Look. It suppose to be $113." I told him to disconnect. He too put it on a hold. Which brings me to today. I called to get it disconnected again same thing. Tell him to disconnect. He said he was sorry I didn't call him first. He knew he could give my Mother just what she was looking for. I said "No. Disconnect." So I'm on hold. 5 min later he comes back. Says he took care of it but all of a sudden his computer froze.

    So I would have to go through disconnections, I got this awful person on the line cold as ice. Definitely no blood in her veins. Ignored everything I had told her. No sympathy, understanding or thanks for your loyalty. She's adding a early disconnect fee of $86 dollars. I said, "I'm taking this to court." I am leaving out so much. Like I tried to get a hold of the original guy I talked to. Phone rings 5 times then hangs up. Go ahead try it 800-934-6489. I wish we could a rebel against being taken advantage of. What's with all the commercials limited regular basic channels. I grew up when customers mattered and you appreciated their business. Thanks for letting me vent a little.

    I was being billed over $272.02 a month for eons for triple play with up to 200 mps internet speed and no special channels except Starz. This is a far cry from standard billing. I just had time to research this as I work as a physician. First I looked on the internet where the website did not breakdown all the billing in the largely prix-fix price, except for a bunch of small charges that added up to very little of the total amount. Then I went on the web to find a store to go to near Cambridge MA my home. A variety of addresses came out and I went to each one - all were closed or non-existent. I called Comcast directly and found a store 116 Beacon St in Somerville, not even on the original list. At the store, the rep sat facing a computer screen while I had to stand facing her. She was very nice but I had to use very precise questions to get to the bottom of this. So far, I have not fully succeeded.

    First we discovered that I was being billed for 7 not 5 separate COMCAST boxes (total of $12 extra per month = 2,160 over perhaps 15 years). Then I discovered at $10 per month I had spent over $1800 in 15 years for a very dated Comcast modem which I could have purchased separately for a mere $200 - essentially I have purchased 9 modems but only have an old one that I continue being billed for. The rest is a complete void. I did return two out of my 5 boxes, saving $20 a month total. I asked the representative to rebuild my "Triple Play" and this came out to ~ $180 or a net savings of ~ $70 per month! So what was I paying for to warrant the $70 per month fee? That is the black hole that each of you needs to research in your own bills.

    I asked for a refund of the two boxes not in my possession that I had been billed for and was credited for $35 as "Comcast doesn't credit back beyond 90 days". I was told to take it up by phone with Customer Service and this is an ongoing miserable experience with no new information yet to report. In summary the MBAs at COMCAST have designed a pretty ugly mousetrap for customers to wade through.

    Buy your own modem and determine the different components of your bill. At the store, you are coming in with one problem and the reps are trained to make you buy an even bigger package by pushing over and over. They don't show you their work or give you a receipt for your new package. You can't tell what they are doing while you stand there and they are sitting working the numbers. Apparently the triple play was cheaper than other variations but I did not see the derivation of this info and the numbers on paper didn't add up. Call COMCAST to get the proper address before driving out since the addresses published on line are all mostly duds.

    You've had to seen it all and be seasoned to avoid being ripped off. So far, I have yet to get to the bottom of my pricing, though with today's adjustments, my monthly bill is now 185 rather than 272 a month. Clearly this is still outrageous. I am not expecting a retroactive refund of the spread, which is huge for really no added value.

Next call I ask the same question and this lady asks how do I like my service. My response is, "Ma'am I have no internet, how do you think it is?" After her saying "ummmm" 1000 times she says I have to wait 5 days til they activate it and I should buy their 2 in one modem router combo instead. I said, "No I have been through 3 of your modem router combos as they are poorly refurbished nightmares that overheat." I hang up and go to the next call.

    Next call is a lady who tries to activate it, she says "I can't activate it but if you bring it to the store they can." And now I'm going to the store tomorrow so they can manually add the Mac address so I can use my internet. I am paying for nothing right now, I know my modem works as it did before.

    On April 17, 2016, I discovered that all of my emails in my inbox were missing. I immediately contacted Comcast to try to figure out where they were. After several phone calls and talking to level 1, 2 and 3 technicians, I was informed that many customers had experienced this because of a Comcast website server update just prior to the day I discovered them missing. At that point the technician told me there was no way to recover them. I was devastated because there were some EXTREMELY important emails that were lost.

    I contacted the office of Tom ** VP of Customer Experience, and explained what happened. I was contacted by a man named Timothy **, who explained that my case had been escalated and passed to him. He stated that he was very sorry and offered me 3 months' worth of free service. I explained that some of the missing emails were evidence in an upcoming child custody case and that until the custody case was resolved I wasn't taking any "settlement" from them. If the loss of my emails resulted in a bad outcome their 3 months of service would not be adequate compensation. I told him I would contact him after the case was over. He said he wanted to go ahead and close the case and I could reopen it at a later date, and I said NO, leave it open. I didn't want to have to explain it all over again.

    On June 11, 2016, I contacted Timothy ** to tell him that the loss of emails had effected the court case negatively, and that he needed to rethink his offer to me. At that he wrote to me, "Honestly, with the trouble you had with the case, it is really hard to place a price on this situation. I can still offer the two months of free service." I responded with, "You previously offered me 3 months of service." He did not respond to me after that.

    I once again contacted Tom **'s office and this time the person who contacted me said that the case had been closed and that the notes on the case stated that I had declined any further attempts to try to recover my missing emails, and that the investigation showed that they were not at fault, my computer was. They also stated that I had declined a $300 credit. This "so-called" report was false. Complete lies. I am now in the process of filing another complaint and will attempt to get out of my contract and NEVER do business with Comcast/Xfinity again. They are dishonest and HORRIBLE.

I operate a business with this service and many days I was unable to work. Comcast only responded with "Sorry for this inconvenience". Over, and over, and over.

    I have been a customer for 6-7 years. The last 2-3 years has been an uphill battle every month they bill me. The stress is truly getting to me physically. I am seriously ill when their name comes up. I put one star as I can't put a negative!! About a year ago, I suddenly received a box of equipment, which I returned to the store. I found out they were charging me for the Triple X or whatever the most expensive plan was. I called immediately of course and was told it would be fixed... A year later it's not. The equipment was returned, in the box, the same week. In the meantime, my bill has been so high that I only have internet and about 30 channels, maybe (some Spanish, which I'm not). I had to have them take my HBO, take all my other channels, and now WOW... believe it or not, after all that my bill is HIGHER!!! I have taken everything I can to get the bill lower and it is still higher.

    WORD TO THE WISE: When you call customer service they have what is called "First Line". They tell you they will help, they don't. The first line's job is not to let any calls get thru to any other affiliates of Comcast/Xfinity. They actually get fired if they pass on calls!! So first line can send you to manager, same thing... Line 1.5, if you are lucky enough to get to customer retention... Again... they will fix it, but no one ever does... LIES LIES LIES!!! I have been charged, disconnect and reconnect service when that hasn't happened. They also charge a convenience fee of just under $10. Convenience??? WTH, there is nothing convenient about them. They will probably cut my service off this month and I will probably just go to the closest internet grocery store. My roommate can't even stand to be in the room when I call. I have talked to them all... 7-9 people I get in one day... No one does **!

    Like I said, I have dropped so much of my service and now my bill is higher than before... This is a sham. I HATE THESE PEOPLE!!! They do nothing towards customer satisfaction and when I go to the Xfinity store they ask if I can come back another time as they are short on employees. I really wish they would put someone in charge there that has half a brain. I would be ashamed to work for them. So they say Trump is bringing jobs back to the US. Start by telling the customer service from India, Indonesia, Mexico etc... that they will be losing their jobs... If enough of us let them know, maybe we can attack them internally and put them out of business. So, if you drop services to lower your bill, be cautious, as I assure you they will find some far out charge to make up the difference. Whatever happened to FREE TV?

After a few months I started getting overcharged and was told I do not have unlimited internet. Two employees told me it was removed. I was told it would cost me $142 to get out of the contract. I made my complaint many times about the scam of a contract I signed and nothing was fixed. In May 2017 I was overcharged $120. My bill was $326. After many agents later, one told me everything would get fixed. I was to pay $25 extra every month and receive unlimited internet again. The fee for May would be waived and June's bill. This was a LIE again. I never got the $120 refund and my bill for June was $110 more than the usually.

    Again I took the phone, everyone kept promising to help but hung up on me or transferred me to other agents. Hours of my time wasted as each agent took 30-40 mins asking about the issue. After reporting the company, someone from corporate contacted me offering me half of the money. After explaining my frustration of the lies that convinced me to sign the contract. Theo said he would review the phone call and see because I told him I wanted the entire refund of $230. He said he would call back in one day and never did.

    I reported the company again. Another corporate employee called me and refused to give me a full refund. She dismissed my complaint and said I can only get back $120 because I used the data and tried saying I should not even get back any money that it was a courtesy. She was dismissive and rude. Comcast is the worst company I've ever accepted service from. IT'S not a courtesy to lie to people and take their money then overcharge them. It's called not being a con artist Comcast.

    I have had used Comcast for several years off and on. In the past I had no issues. I admit I left off with a balance pending but got that handled and started using their service back in 2015 and no problems for the most part up until I had to cancel. When I did I was to receive a credit that was allegedly mailed out and well 6 months it took before they actually refunded anything that was probably only when I decided to just hook up internet. This time approximately around April I noticed a spike in my use of data and was concerned because nothing really had in our use had really changed that much then I realized the network was public which it should not have been well that goes to show don't trust anyone with your equipment numbers.

    Needless to say I called the Security department which the representative said there was another signal that was public however it was not visible on my portal which I think it's funny that all portal access login and passwords are the same which means if you let someone on your wifi not set up for guests they can go in and change your settings leaving you vulnerable to anyone. I then was instructed to swap devices which I did so off to swap out my equipment at the local Xfinity location in Little Rock, AR.

    Prior to that I decided that maybe I will get cable so the kids could have a little more options and had set it up with sales over the phone and all was well. I get to the location immediately. I am asked for my social security which I think is pretty commonplace nowadays and so I ramble it off there. I am thinking he was verifying account info and all this to pick up equipment to set up cable on my existing account. He proceeds to say I need to provide $100.00 deposit and I was baffled being I was not told that on the phone. Either way apparently when you pick up vs. having it send via mail they run your credit and he told me after the fact.

    I am not surprised because there is more. Ok we establish this and then I said cancel the additional service, I asked for a new modem and wanted out. He then explained that is their policy whenever upgrading meaning adding service to existing service. I grab my new modem after the kid tries to make a sale and this is funny as farts the service upgrade would have brought my bill up to $59.99 and guess what the upgrade to my internet would have brought me up to $59.99. I had an issue with that, I said screw it and went on ahead but I was irritated and needed answers so I called sales and asked what was up with this deposit why was I not told and asked to cancel. The lady was nice and convinced to go on ahead that there was no needed deposit and I calm down and decide to keep service.

    I then set up the new internet and chit chat about nothing with the tech guy which he throws in the fact that some of Comcast servers were compromised. Immediately I set up the new device and added 3 devices total and my portal shares all my info and the settings default was the lowest so I set it up the way I need to and see the 3 devices yet I get on my anti virus and pop goes the weasel there an unknown device is on my private network. I called and was transferred to internet support then security and then security says it's fraud and then fraud says that it's not his department.

    Finally I asked for the cancellation department and I ask the young lady that even if Comcast Xfinity or Poopcast Poopfinity was the last company to provide service I would go without being connected. The constant misinformation and no one willing to really assist the miscommunication between phone sales and store front sales regarding policies is evident.

    Corporate America, in this case it's Comcast, thank you for the poop. The fact is all your poor agents are worried about is getting good reviews and the customer service are not trained in a way that they can think for themselves. They stick to a script making them sound robotic reading a poorly written script. The first option when a person calls should be to speak to a human.

    The truth is losing my little contribution to their pockets is menial however I will never tell anyone to use their service and I know I won't be using it anymore just because of their disorganization. Even going into the store I was repeated the same line over and over like I was an imbecile because instead of expressing that yes there is a disconnect of information between the stores and sales on the phone he kept repeating himself like he memorized the poorly written script provided so that tells me that the supervisors have no flexibility either that or he did not give a rat's behind.

I called in last month, got it "corrected" and this next month I get a bill for $50 higher than the last one which was double what I had been paying for years!!! Comcast is the worst company on planet Earth without exception, I have never seen this level of ineptitude in business.

    I've used different internet and cable companies before I saw Xfinity advertisement about their high speed internet. So I decided to switch to Xfinity for high speed internet and cable bundle. Their internet speed fluctuates very much especially during weekends. Also, They have the worst customer service you can ever imagine.

    They sent me a new modem to change with their old ones that they installed 5 months ago. It took 4 phone calls and more than 2 hour on the phone with their tech support but the modem would not be installed. They said they are going to send a technician and if there was a modem issue I would not be charged, otherwise I have to pay $60 installation fee. I agreed and their technician supposed to come on Friday but he didn't show up so I called them and they figured they didn't have me on their list for Friday! So I was rescheduled for Monday.

    2 technicians showed up on Monday and they both said the wireless system in the modem was not working properly and was not sending any signals. They called Comcast before leaving and explained the situation and I was assured by them and the Comcast agent that I don't need to pay installation fee. After I received the new bill, I figured I was charged for 2 installation fee ($120). After 3 months, they are still working on it and I am supposed to get my money back by the end of past month! It's too much of hassle to deal with them. No one knows what's going on there.

    All I can say is if you're contemplating using Comcast as your internet or cable provider, rethink it. Three times I have been stood up for service calls where no one ever showed up or called. This latest time I called to cancel and the woman swore up and down she would have a service technician the next day and not to cancel and give them one more shot. Reluctantly, I did and guess what. No show. No call. I've been without internet for who knows how long, and they've charged me for it. This is a vacation home in New Jersey. When I called up to cancel for sure this time, they say, "Well we changed your service request for two days later." Not a chance in hell. Cancelled after four years and never looking back. Beware of using this company. They will sweet talk you into a deal but your bill will never reflect it. I'd be very careful of using Comcast.

    I thought Nothing could be worse than Time Warner. I was seriously wrong. Service cuts out hourly, or if it does not cut out altogether it slows way down. I am paying for 10mbps. Right. I think it may have hit that ONCE. I do speed tests regularly and on a good day it may hit 5 mbps. On an average day less than two with regular cut-outs. Of course, when they have a monopoly there is no incentive to provide good service.

    I was a Comcast customer for years with no problem and returned to them December 2016 thinking service would be the same. I've had 4 bills and amount has gone up $6/mo., download speed is around 30-40, at best, not 75 "BLAST" they supposedly provide and I lost a channel I enjoyed, CMT, because they decided to move it to the sports package. CMT has nothing to do with sports. They want to charge additional 4.99/month for sports package so customers can have CMT channel. I entered into a two year agreement, that Comcast is not adhering to. I received credit for additional fees last month because I refused to pay. If I have to haggle with them again this month (and I will), I'm cancelling agreement, and will NOT pay early termination. Comcast is doing early termination by not honoring an agreement in good faith. I've kept my end of the bargain, they have not.

    I got the service in December. When the boxes arrived, they sent everything incorrectly. I called and told them what was shipped and they apologized and sent me new boxes. Again, the shipment was incorrect. By now I was a little upset since it was the second time. When I called they told me to go to the actual store to return the boxes and get the new ones and that they would leave a note on file for when I got to the store.

    When I got to the store, I waited for an hour to get helped and there were no notes in the system. When I told the representative what has been going on, he did not believe me and thought I was stealing some of the boxes. After getting firm with the representative, he said "OK" and gave me the correct boxes I was requesting.

    After 1 month of having the service, the Guide, On Demand, Internet and Netflix app would take forever to load. I called and they said there was interference and they would send a tech. When the tech came, he said he couldn't fix it and would have to schedule a different tech to resolve the issue. When the other tech came (2 weeks since the problem started) he wasn't able to resolve the issue and added some connectors which will strengthen the connection. Since then, we sometimes have good service, sometimes we don't. The internet never gives you the speed that you are paying for. This is very disappointing as once, long long time ago, the service was good.

    A month after this happened, I received a bill with extra charges. I called them (again) and asked why I had those charges and they told me it was in error and that they would credit me the amount for next month. Next months bill came and yes the credit was there, but the extra charges were there again. GGGRRR!!! I called them AGAIN and they credited me again. Luckily this time I didn't get billed incorrectly.

    It's been almost 6 months since I've had the service and last month, I updated my preferred billing method to my new bank account which for some reason never reflected in their internal system so the auto-payment was attempted to be debited from an old bank account which has been closed, yet the website says it was paid successfully. I received a letter in the mail from my previous bank, stating that the payment from Comcast Xfinity was tried to process but it was returned since the account is closed.

    I called once again and now they can't figure it out. The website shows my correct bank account and their system shows my old account and my new account and they can't figure it out. I first tried using their chat system but I waiting for 20 minutes and it never connected. This service sucks. Don't get Comcast Xfinity!!! You will end with more headaches with their service than anything else. We will definitely end our service and start looking for a new provider. This is unacceptable for the amount of money we pay on a month to month. THEY NEED TO GET THEIR ACT TOGETHER!!!

Each time I have to address an issue which all has to do with bad internet connection and very slow internet, it takes most of my morning or most of my evening in trying to solve my problems, and if I am lucky, I won't have to extend it to more than one day. We, as consumers sacrifice our time, trading dealing with these issues for others that could help us earn our money or take care of important tasks in our lives. Our time as consumers have less than "0" value to Comcast, while the game they play means tons of money for them. These issues, however never seem to go away.

    Why is it that if we as taxpayers funded the invention of the internet, we cannot have it if not for free, at a reasonable price and a reliable service? Instead we are providing for big profits to Comcast for products that they invented to make more money, but for the consumer means absolutely nothing. The middle class areas get the internet at the highest prices with a horrible connection; and the offers are only available in a few areas. How can that be legal?

    I love giving good/bad reviews for businesses when they are deserved. I truly believe reviews help companies grow and stay in line. Today, Comcast deserves a negative review. I guess that's why Comcast didn't call me for a survey afterwards. They only want that survey if it's good. I digress... I set up my account with Comcast over a year ago. All I wanted was internet and they added basic cable for $20/month. My bill was 71.00/ month. My bill randomly increased to $107 for one month and then dropped back down to $71. So I call to find out why. I spent 30minutes on the phone with a lady that couldn't figure out what happened to my plan. She kept referring to someone that I've never heard who was linked to address (somehow) and then she said my bill was $107 because I had a Triple Play plan (Which I've never had).

    She couldn't find a rate to match what I had, even though it should not have changed. So I asked her to just cancel my cable and leave me with internet that she quoted at $49/month. She said "OK I'll get with this other department, we will cancel your cable and leave you with internet at $49/month." After being on hold for a few minutes, another lady picks up and says she will be helping me going forward. Totally different personality and she had no clue about what I discussed with the customer service person.

    She said my only option was $89/month for just internet and said that my bill was just on a promotion plan and that's why it went up to $107/month. So I asked why would it have gone back down to $71 a month later? She said that was what her computer said and that I was on a promotional Triple Play plan. I was given the run around until they could clean up what ever they did to my account. My only option was internet for $89/month so I canceled my account.

    Moved to this city and got a package "deal" (basic internet and TV) for $80+ per month. TV service is supposed to come with a premium channel and On Demand. I have never had access to either. When I call, "George" in India reads his script, but cannot resolve the problem or tell me HOW to access these services that he insists I have. Watch out: If you allegedly have a premium channel, you suddenly start getting charged for it after your newbie window ends. I am fairly intelligent (four university degrees), and tech savvy, so the fact that they keep insisting I have something that I don't - yet can't tell me how to access it - is very frustrating. I am patient, kind, and positive towards them, yet they're accusatory towards me, and imply that I messed things up, or that I am incompetent.

    I asked them to end the TV service as I rarely watch. They told me it would be almost $100 per month for BASIC internet ($25 more per month than my current bill for getting less service), and told me it was because I was benefiting from a "package deal." Nice to hold customers hostage this way. Two years ago I lived in another city and got great internet service for $45 per month, but when I moved here I found that Xfinity has a near monopoly on internet/TV services. The only other internet service here is CenturyLink, which has terrible reviews. Xfinity really screws their customers due to having basically no competition.

    When I have access to my internet (most of the time), it is speedy. I don't game or stream things, however, only browse the internet, so can't speak to speed in those regards. However, last month, and the month before I lost connection, ran through the recovery drills myself, but ended up having to call them. Their call center guy kept saying I WAS connected, and asked what I "did to upset your internet." Uh, nothing... It was working fine then I was suddenly disconnected. He finally figured out the problem was on their end, after consulting with a co-worker. I had to call again the next month, they went through the same spiel, and I told them I'd called them three weeks ago for the same problem and it WAS on their end. "George" from India was surprised, had no record of me calling, but did suddenly "find" the problem and I got reconnected after about 1/2 an hour.

    Comcast has hidden fees: $20 for "misc" fees (they can't tell me what these fees are for), $5 for "broadcast fees, etc., etc. Although internet works well when you have it, it's a poor value, there is a lack of affordable or flexible options, and the call center folks have to read from a script and it really throws them if you ask questions they can't find answers to in their manifesto. Makes me feel bad for having to call the poor people.

Even told them to cancel our bill this last time only to be told that only the billing department can do that and I was not allowed to talk to the billing department until I paid the fees they charged that I do not owe. How absurd!

    Have used Comcast/XFINITY for 4 years. They wish to charge for upgrades that are not possible in my home. The internet speed is slow. Ask why I had to pay more. They said "Your building is not updated for upgraded services". Sorry, that is their responsibility, not mine. Very unhappy with the customer service and supervisors. All they wish is more money for outdated wiring. I disconnected the service because they have no clue of customer service I have worked on cruise ships, NBA sporting venues, NFL venues.

    I was on hold for 30 minutes and was disconnected by the computer. Then I called again and tried to do a live chat. An hour later the live chat still hasn't connected. I got someone on the phone finally and when I asked to speak to a supervisor he asked me a million questions (mostly the same info over and over) and I am still on hold now, an hour and a half later. I cancelled my account but I keep getting bills saying they are overdue and a collection agency will be notified. All for a service I had for only one week. Thankfully I'm back with Verizon now.

    Be forewarned. Even though Comcast advertises $20 per month internet, you may not get it, and when you cancel, they may not cancel you. Called for better deals 4/14. Had none, so moved to WOW. Installed 4/17, and called Comcast to cancel. Returned box 4/20, got confirmation email 4/21 they had it. No problem. Got billed again 4/23. Just called to ask about the bill, and they didn't bother cancelling me on 4/17, it took them 10 days to process it, and guess what, I got to pay for all of them. Terrible service.

    I was a happy customer with Comcast internet with $39.99/month plan...but then I got a call from customer care telling, if I upgrade my services, to $54.99/month I can get cable as well. And she described whole lot of channels, etc etc. I was attracted and said I would like an upgrade!! Also she mentioned that I am not happy with the cable, I can disconnect any time. Well, I took the connection, paid the charges in advance for the next month, then I was not happy with the channels, so I called up on 10th day or so, and told to disconnect the services and keep the old service active!!

    Here comes all the problems now. The lady did not specify any downgrade policy to me!! And now, I cannot get the old internet package back! I cannot get refund for the days of the services I did not use. I mean, why are you trying to annoy a happy customer?? I am really unhappy about what happened to me. Now if I have to get any internet services, it's not less than $50/month + again installation charges. I mean what the hell is happening?

    Expect connection drops that their customer service/tech support/technicians will be able to fix because of how intermittent these issues are. Their tech support in particular are very inconsistent with their answers and suggestions for help. If you hear something that just sounds odd from one of them, you can assume that it's a beginner/trainee that doesn't know how to use all the tools that he's given to give a proper answer and will just try to get off the phone as fast as possible. If you can, get Verizon Fios, ESPECIALLY if you're in the D.C. area or Northern Virginia.

    They have gigabit internet for $70 which is far faster and far more reliable. Too bad Comcast bought out my building for exclusivity and now I'm stuck with these idiots as my ISP. You don't understand how frustrating it is to be surrounded by houses FEET from your building that all potentially can get gigabit internet for the same price I'm paying for on/off internet. Pathetic. Get a grip and let Verizon take over my building.

    220 Mbps download 10 Mbps upload when the internet works. Lately the internet has been pretty awful whether it be super slow (7-10 Mbps) or just not working at all. Not sure why this issue keeps happening after 4-5 technician visits and tons of phone calls. Whenever an issue like this happens all you can hope for is to call the tech support phone number and have every single one of them repeat the same thing over again and ask you to "reset your modem" or "unplug your modem and plug it back in". If that doesn't fix it, which is never has and never will, they will set up an appointment and have a technician come. Funny thing is, I just learned recently that they have various kinds of technicians that come by based on what might be causing the issue. Whether the issue be caused because of the wiring outside, your modem, maybe some wiring inside your building, they'll send a different kind of technician.

    At least that's what I've been told by their department. But the technicians don't matter in my case. This problem is intermittent. The internet will get slow or stop working, I'll call them, they set up an appointment for another day (maybe 2-3 days later because for whatever reason they can never send one out the next day) and the issue won't happen when they come. I've had this happen maybe twice and since there's no problem when they come, they can't diagnose the issue and fix it. They tend to update outages pretty late as well so maybe there are multiple mini outages that occur and fix so the outage notification doesn't even pop up on the mobile app.

    I keep getting slow internet speeds intermittently and nobody knows how to fix it besides the tech support guy saying that they're sending a provisioning (?) signal to my modem. Not sure why you have to keep sending those kinds of signals in order for my internet to work properly but okay. Some of the tech support members don't know what the hell they're talking about and have no idea what the issue with the internet is. I called roughly a month ago because my internet kept dropping every 15 minutes or so and some idiot told me that the signal from Comcast to my apartment building was strong and just fine and that it must be an issue with my modem/router. They insisted that this was the issue, and since every single time I called they said that it might be my modem since there's no possible way that their end could do any wrong, I decided to take the rep's advice and call NetGear to get some help.

    Don't know why I listened to him when he said that NetGear helps for free because it cost me $100. But beyond that, after I agree to pay the $100 to find out what's going on, NetGear tells me that my modem/router is working just fine. Just to make sure that this information is correct, I buy another modem/router ($150) just to confirm if this is true and lo and behold my internet still wasn't working as it should've been. To top this whole ordeal off, I get a call a couple days later telling me that they fixed the internet issue and that it was their signal that was the issue, not my modem/router. So now I'm in the process of getting Comcast to reimburse me for the $100 that I paid NetGear. Obviously NetGear can't refund me because they gave me information that "helped" me with my issue that they can't take back.

    Cable/Internet/Phone providers are a miserable lot. When one entity goes down they all do. I work and INTERNET is critical in this day and age, much to my chagrin. It causes more problems, is expensive, and isn't reliable. To make matters worse, understanding what the representative is saying is difficult if you are a native, educated, English speaking American. It takes numerous calls sometimes to get a person you can actually understand, let alone get a problem repaired. Always call back at least twice to get the same answer to questions like when you can expect your Internet to return, or television to be back on.

    As if that's not aggravating enough, if you work online get a personal "hot spot". Although expensive, they aren't when you consider the cost of a deal you've been working on for days or weeks being impeded by an Internet that won't work through Xfinity. My phones are separate from my television and INTERNET service. I learned a long time ago this was necessary, not optional.

Their automated system calls me and states that the technician is at my door. It takes me less than 10 seconds to get to my door, and there is no one at the door nor is there anyone outside. So, I figure, they must be on their way. I wait for 15 minutes and I get an automated call that the technician has been there, and they are sorry they missed me. Say what!!! Are you kidding me. I called the customer service and I blast them for the umpteenth time. Now she tells me that they have to re-schedule me from 5-7 pm. She apologizes and states that maybe they went to the wrong home. I advise her that my house number is on my mailbox and the street sign is up at the corner. How can anyone be this bad. What a terrible company this is. This is just one of the times they have been lazy, and sorry.

    One time they were supposed to come and switch my internet and phone to them, and the tech comes to the door and states, I am here to repair a cable problem you are having. OMG. The tech calls in to his office and tells them the customer has an email that shows what they are to be doing, and customer service states that they do not see the order that myself and the tech are seeing. I kindly cancel my order with XFINITY and call AT&T and keep my service. I pray I never have to work for this company.

I signed this contract and I was told that this would fix all of the billing issues, only to find out I'm in the exact same spot as before. The contract has been pending for well over a month.

    I returned to my vacation home where for many years I have had the least expensive Internet service (Economy Plus). Because the service is so slow, I called and asked if I could upgrade my internet speed to the next level then downgrade it when I planned to leave in 3 weeks. I was told that was "no problem" and that the Internet speed could be increased immediately. The cost would be about $30 more per month so I agreed.

    When the Internet speed did NOT increase within an hour, I called again and asked that my order be cancelled and I be returned to my existing plan. I was told that was impossible because my plan was no longer available. I called the following day and asked the same question and was told that they would gladly put me back on my Internet Plus plan immediately.

    My bill showed that never happened. I have called many times to correct this situation and get my billing back to what it had been before this happened. I have been told that it would be done and, of course, it hadn't. One "Account Executive" promised I would receive an email confirming that the correction had been made which never happened. I decided to wait until I could discuss the matter in person at the local Comcast store but called to ask that my Internet account be put on seasonal disconnect until I expected to return in 3 months. That never happened either.

    After the call, the customer is asked to rate the performance of THE LAST Account Executive that they spoke with. In every case, the representative assured me that problem was corrected and I rated accordingly BUT in EVERY CASE nothing had been done to correct the situation with my account. I get the impression that these call center employees are just there to humor people and make them feel good by feeding them false information and promises. The only way a company like that can survive is by having a unregulated monopoly.

The TV package sold to me included the 75 MBS at the same monthly rate as the 25 MBS. Then that was 20.00 per month more! I didn't activate my TV service but was charged at total of 150.00 for the month of March to April, where I was paying 48.00 per month before.

Contacted chat line asking questions for TV, internet, and phone service. I told the rep that it was very important to me for everything to be revealed up front and honestly. I hate "oh by the ways," at the end of a conversation. I have dealt with hidden costs and sneaky business deals. I was super careful about my questions and clarifying answers. I think these reps are trained on how to be vague. Some questions I had to clarify many times because she wouldn't give me a clear answer. I do not trust people who try to hang you up on fine details. I was super clear about my intentions and what was important to me.

    After being cut-off the chat twice and three different reps and two and a half hours later, I finally felt I could move forward on my choices. Wouldn't you know it, she hit me in the final step of the deal "oh, by the way, there is also a $10 charge per month for the modem." I was through by then. I reiterated that being honest and up front with customers was important to me and I had voiced that concern. She then came back that since she hadn't been totally upfront, they would waive the installation charges which were $60. Nope, not enough because the unheard charges were $120 and that she wasn't giving me anything that had not been advertised to the public in the way of advertising. She said she couldn't do anything for me.

    Where has honesty and upfront communication gone in the customer service industry? Especially since I pointed it out all along. After a fiasco with AT&T and now Comcast, I don't have anywhere else to go to get needed services. Am I going to have to settle for high-cost services and poor customer service? What is the answer?

There are other providers (Dish) for TV, but if you drop the cable from Comcast, they jack the cable internet up to a shocking level. So the $$ you save with Dish is consumed by the price increase for jacked-up price for the (same) internet from Comcast. It's their way of commanding a ransom. Every 6 to 12 months we play the same game... price jacks up and I spend over an hour on the phone with different people until some compromise is found.

Yesterday, suddenly I wanted to learn what Xfinity wifi did, so on one of my machines -- I don't maintain a network, all machines are Win7 -- suddenly via a WIRED machine I couldn't access a website, JUST AFTER on a different device, I connected to Xfinity wifi (as hotspot). KEY: there was a splash page offering to download an Xfinity app for secure connection, and I turned it down. I was on a laptop, so didn't think a mobile app would be suitable. THAT is when the problem occurred, and the 'app offer' literally splashed a transparent image over the site I was accessing. Though none of my computers are on a network, somehow that nonetheless prevented them from even accessing the DOMAIN, so long as I use that modem.

    Lost 12 hours troubleshooting, had to reset modem, now ALL machines (none being networked) using THAT modem cannot access that same ONE site. But if I use Xfinity wifi hotspot, no problem. Any other websites, no problem. Comcast finally came out today, and the guy insists it's NOT Comcast's problem, that it must be the website. But if it were the website (which it is, I know coz it's MY DOMAIN which I've run for 15 years), then it wouldn't be accessible by wifi hotspot, either. Domain has no problems. But Comcast won't accept that obvious proof it's something in their 'app offer', even denying there is one. The arrogance of this denial, plus years now of ineptitude lasting hours with every phone call, is too much. So I'm done with Comcast. As soon as I can find another provider with wifi hotspots also available, I'll leave.

    Comcast, in our area, as in many, has a franchise monopoly. That is, the local government subsidized Comcast's building of internet infrastructure (laying of cables in public eminent domain areas) and restricted the access rights of competitors to lay cables in those areas. Thus, I have no choice but to depend upon Comcast for broadband internet service. There is no competitive pressure encouraging Comcast to provide superior customer service.

    Comcast has seriously failed in at least three arenas for us, and as shown on many reviews nationwide, you may see this applies to other customers as well. (1) Comcast advertises, for our service tier, a service speed of 100 Mbps. We receive consistently a speed merely of about 30 Mbps. A substantial difference. (2) Our initial cable TV contract (bundled with internet) listed a set of stations with our service tier. Monthly, with our bill, we often see a station or two moved to a higher (i.e., more expensive) service tier. (I reckon it's the old TOS ploy, "These Terms may change at any time for any reason.")

    (3) Comcast does not offer an opt-out for monitoring and gathering information on our TV and internet activity for commercial (or other) purposes. When I asked a chat agent for a method to opt out, the agent directed me to a phone number. I called, and the robot directed me to yet another phone number. I called that phone number, and the robot did not respond to any of my reactions. I tried three times, with the same results. No opt-out available. I deem Comcast's customer service arrogant and deplorable at best.

All that means to me is they know what's wrong yet do not intend to fix it. Only company in my area so I am stuck with them for now. I hate this company. I hope they go out of business.

    Worst service and communication I been having the last two weeks after opening a new account with Comcast. Errors in the order, wrong billing. When you call customer service three different stories and never resolved the issue. Two times appointments to receive a technician and never show. Today he show and have to reschedule again to additional job. After another technician will have to come to install the boxes. In summary two weeks and a half and no services after 16 calls and three appointments. NEVER USE COMCAST.

    I've had Comcast internet service for about 3 years now as I have no other choice. Since we first became customers we have had rolling internet outages. In other words our internet will slow to down to bits per second range down from the 25 megabits our subscription is for. I've talked regularly with tech support at first and they would go through the same steps each time ignoring my interruptions that I've gone through their script many times. They eventually send a technicians out to look at the service. I believe we've had 4 out, and each time they say everything is fine, and everything is fine in the middle of the day usually. It's between 6 pm and 12 pm when we have the worst problems, exactly the time we are home and want to use the service we pay for.

    Comcast has never offered to give us any kind of outage refund. They have horrible over the phone tech support, they actually try to upsell me at the end of each phone call. The techs they send out seem knowledgeable but when I've tried to follow up with them with screenshots of speed tests they have not responded. At this point I don't have time to continue to devote to troubleshooting with them and I have no other providers servicing my location. Did I mention I live in Denver, so it's not like there are miles of cables to troubleshoot here. I would like to end this monopoly.

    I was scammed by Comcast sale representative "Christ **" when called to transfer my business service back to my home. My package included phone line and internet. However, I requested to transfer only the internet and he informed that the whole package has to be moved as a service then I can call to cancel the phone line when the technician completed the installation. Then I was shocked when another representative told me that I signed for a whole new 36 months contract (I was not informed during the recorded conversation) and cannot cancel my phone line for another 6 months; otherwise, I will be charged early termination fee.

    I called Comcast back many times hoping to just cancel my phone line; however, all of them refuse to help and all said "contact the sale person", who I have no contact info beside his email, which I emailed and no reply (of course). I've been using with Comcast many years for both my business and home services. They just lost a loyal customer by setting up scam like this...

    I have the HD Preferred Plus with Xfinity that boasts about their BLAST INTERNET SPEEDS of 200Mps. For the last two weeks, I have been on the phone with numerous Customer Service Representatives, several times with the Advanced Technical teams from Arizona, Alabama, the Pocono Mountains in Pa, have had two service technicians to my home, have traveled 20 some miles to replace the modem, rather than have them ship it for a mere $9.95. With every person that I spoke with, I was told that there is nothing wrong, even though I had my cable checked for strength from the street, along with my house wiring. The signals were great according to the in home techs.

    Now, why I am complaining. I am only receiving 100Mps when it should be 200Mbps. When I run numerous speed tests, my download speed's at in the mid 40's with upload speeds of around 9Mps. Not acceptable to me. After all, I am currently paying more for cable service, than it would cost to provide electric & natural gas to heat my home. Go figure. I am about an inch away from canceling all of Comcast's services, use my cell phone as my home phone, look for another internet supplier, and using a Fire Stick with Kodi installed to watch any program, or movie that I want. Totally free if you didn't know! Since I have had no help with my calls, my next step before I cancel will be to contact a few consumer affairs groups on our local channels in Philadelphia. Maybe they can help?

    Now that Comcast has released 2 months ago that you are limited to 1024gig of data before extra charge kicks in, and sent out a usage report of what you have been using to make you feel better about getting a cap. Has anybody else noticed they are using a lot more data than before? I work from home and I'm on the computer 10 hrs a day and watch Netflix while I'm working and we had been around for our average 650 gig. Last month and this month I have been over by 550 to 600 gig. So I call to find out what the overage cost is and lo and behold "It's $10 per 50 gig or you can go unlimited for 50 a month more." Well there it is. "Give us another 50 and you get unlimited." Interesting. Now this month after adding the 50 unlimited plan I see a 60 dollar overage and when I call I was told that is credited and my bill should be 286 yet the paper statement and the online statement both show 346 due. Lies all around.

    I called to let Comcast know that we were shopping around since their services have been extremely unsatisfactory for the past 4 months; this includes multiple blackouts in a single day and horrible television signal even after they put new cables inside and outside the home and forced us to get a new router since all the troubles they said we had was due to our router which is false. I spoke with a man named Omar on 03/19/2017 around 1:45 P.M. and he said they would lower my total bill to $64.99 for 12 months. I advise him I would call him tomorrow since I was still calling other companies. I called the next day and somehow the price is not and is actually more because that was the price that didn't include taxes. This brings me to a point that just because you don't tell people the truth about a cost doesn't mean you didn't lie. How hard would it have been to say it's $64.00 PLUS TAXES which was never said on their "recorded" line.

    On that very day, I speak with another agent Carmelita and is extremely rude and unprofessional that I request a supervisor since she can't tell me what the agent I spoke to before put in the account regarding the retention offer. She then tells me that the average wait time for a supervisor is 25 minutes and decides to wait 30 minutes on the line for a supervisor. I decided to have them give me a call to discuss this deceit of the price and terrible lack of customer service from the last agent.

    About 2-3 hours later, I received a call that rang just once and quickly disconnected. That was probably the supervisor/manager calling me waiting for the call to ring once and hang up just to say they called me. If this isn't the dirtiest most deceitful company in the US I don't know what is. I can't wait for Verizon Fios to come to my town and have faster reliable service, quality customer service agents, skilled technicians, and ethical managers. It's really disappointing that a company as big as Comcast has to still stoop so low in morals and ethics to gain a buck like a cheap prostitute.

    Horrible. It started with speaking to a sales associate at Walmart who offered me everything I had with Charter for almost half the price. I was hesitant because I've dealt with Comcast raising prices before, but I agreed for her to text me all the details before signing up. Never received a call or text. Next thing I know there's a box of equipment and a bill at my front door. I call to as what it's about and they tell me she signed me up already, that the internet was less than half the speed she promised and just basic cable.

    I talk to the associate on the phone trying to figure out what to do. She was great and tried everything to get the price reasonable. She was able to get everything down to two dollars more than I'm paying with Charter but gave me Starz as compensation. So, I go to hook everything up and it doesn't work. I call and explain the situation. Go through the whole restarting modem ordeal and finally get told I need a tech to come hook it up which BTW will be $60. I ask if they will waive it for all my troubles and I get a big NO. Needless to say I canceled right there.

I have now spoken to 5 Comcast representatives, all very nice, who have assured me that it would be picked up and have in fact scheduled several pick ups. No one ever came.

    This morning as I called again, I was informed that it is not their policy to pick up equipment that they sent that was never ordered.

    You may have heard in Nov '16 Comcast changed its billing for Internet service from unlimited data usage to 1 terabyte included in your package then $10 extra for every 50 gigabytes over the limit. Or you can add an extra $50 a month to your current internet package. They claim this change is due to the %1 of users that exceed the 1 terabyte per month usage. This is a total lie for two reasons. First, companies do not alter their entire pricing packages because %1 uses more than the company would like. Second, this is their response to their lose of TV cable viewers who are switching to watching television online (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc.).

    As a result if you are one of the many people who watch TV through the internet, then you're probably exceeding the 1 terabyte limit. Clearly this is more than the %1 Comcast claims exceeds this limit. In October I purchased a security camera system offered by Google. Was $600. This system uses my internet and I had purchased when I was under an unlimited data usage plan with Comcast. As a result of Comcast's price changes, I am exceeding the 1 terabyte limit per month and now have to add an additional $50 to my internet service because of Comcast's new policy. Or I'll have to pay $10 extra for every 50 gigabytes exceeded. If I knew Comcast was getting rid of the unlimited data usage, I would have reconsidered purchasing a camera system that uses the internet. After all, it's 2017 and I wasn't expecting my internet service provider to roll back to 2003 standards. Their new policy is a rip off and I despise being lied to.
