    Since October 2018 I believe I have talked to them over a thousand times about my bill, I feel like Comcast is a scam and I'm sick of them billing me two months in advance. I only have Wi-Fi and the house phone which is supposed to be $64 and every month my bill is 140 hundred sixty different amounts. When I pay what I'm supposed to pay the same day I get another bill saying I owe $79 or something in that order. The lady told me herself, "They bill you two months in advance" is unfair. I haven't had a peace of mind since I had Comcast. Somebody need to do something about Comcast billing consumers 2 months in advance. So what if you decide to have your service is disconnected when your contract is up. What happens to all the extra money them billing you two months in advance. Don't they still owe you a refund on all the months they bill you in advance.

    I moved to an area where Comcast Internet was not being offered so I had to cancel my account with them. I thought that I had paid everything off until I received a bill notification via email m. As I try to access my account, I find that it is no longer active. So I called Comcast customer service inquiring on this bill, and the representative I spoke with said that I had a zero balance and was not sure why I was receiving bill notifications. She removed my email from the system and we happily parted ways.

    Fast forward to two months, I receive a collections notice from Sequium Asset Solutions that I had a past due bill from Comcast. Come to find out, the representative was looking at the wrong account initially. In reality, I had a balance of $72. I was not given notification that I had an outstanding bill. They removed my email from their system, they did not give me a call, they did not send me a letter! Since I was no longer a customer, I was basically dead to them. The rep basically said ‘too bad so sad,’ Pay your bill that we never told you about!!!

    Never again! I’ve had been burned by Comcast so many times that this was definitely the last time I’ll ever do business with them! And since the manager that was supposed to call me back never did, I am going to send a letter to the Better Business Bureau about this and to their corporate office. This is absolutely ridiculous. The lack of accountability and care for their customers is heinous.

    I was spending $59 a month just on wifi and the service has been horrible! A little over a month ago (I believe, not good on the dates) when I called to cancel my service due to my frustrations after 13 years of being a customer, I was transferred to a foreign customer reps. Unfortunately, there are inaccuracies (although they feel like absolute lies) to get me into a new program with a razzle dazzle offer. Come to find out a month later I am being charged $20 more, one of the credits she promised mysteriously was not applied nor is this not on any of her notes nor are the other promises, such as quadruple the speed for a low price, the extra $25 credit, the credits for paperless and automatic payment. It seems as you continue to expand Comcast-Xfinity is dropping the ball. It is truly unfortunately the worst company ever and it continuously gets worse!

    Here are the main issues: I had been having severe issues with my wifi since I purchased a modem over two years ago. Why so long to deal with an issue, who has hours and hours to spend on the phone to rectify a service that should work seamlessly to begin with? If the service is not working well you should begin paying your customers for their time, maybe this will ensure the work is being done correctly. Initially I was told it was my modem at which point I spent $279 on a new modem. This was an ordeal in itself because the system refused to acknowledge my new modem and did not want to remove the old modem from my account that I had been renting from Comcast over two years ago. This issue alone took literally several months to fix (it was insane). Despite changing the modem, I was still experiencing issues.

    When I finally got home from my travels, back in April, (I was traveling and had various household members try to call in and rectify the issue to no avail) I had 3 service techs come to my home to figure out the issue. By the third rep Comcast finally decided to update the line to my home (it took 3 technicians to figure this out? So 3 days I had to take time out of my day to help facilitate this). Not acceptable. Last month (give or take a couple of days) I called to cancel because of issues I was continuing to have with your service dropping and every time I called I would spend over an hour with a rep (that is not sustainable or viable for my time). When I called to cancel I was transferred to a different country and told things that were untrue, so that I would renew and get locked into yet another year.

    I was told the following: I was going to get $50 total for all the issues I was having. I was going to get 4 times the speed for what I had been paying. I was never told that I would have overages despite me asking on many occasions if I would be paying a flat fee.(For these reasons I renewed the contract for a year. I kept asking her that in order to renew the price kept coming up as $70 and that I did not want to pay this. She told me I would get $10 credit for paperless and $10 credit for automatic payment. I called today and find out it was incorrect.)

    Upon the updating of speed of my wifi to the new plan, my wifi dropped in speed and continuously lags even worse than before. In speaking with tech support, he says that everything looks great on his end. Why am I getting a bill for $79 not the $49 I was promised? I have been on the phone for over an hour and again no one is paying for my time. I asked to speak to a supervisor her name is Lakesha (I had to ask the customer service rep, Bianca, 5 times) and I was told that the supervisor would call me when she could squeeze me on her time. I have conference calls, I have individuals to manage, meetings etc. I asked for an email where Lakesha and I can set up a call and was told that this service does not exist.

    From my perspective this would be a more conducive way of facilitating expedited service rather than calling back and forth. Where is the mindfulness to the customer? Today I also asked Bianca for the name of the original individual from the foreign country who signed me up this last time and she is not required to put her name on my account? I asked for a transcript of our phone conversation to prove that I was given incorrect information and again this was not available. So I am at the mercy of a foreign customer service representative? Incorrect notes were put on my account and no customer issues were properly annotated.

    It became clear to me today in speaking with your customer service rep Bianca, during her review of my account notes, upon listening to her read off her notes and the other reps notes who signed me up again, that they literally only cover their tracks in "what they say to the customer" rather than truly reflecting what the customer is complaining about. I had to ask her several times to amend the notes to truly reflect what I I am having issues with. Since when do the notes on a customer's account become about the representative and not the customer? It seems as though these individuals are more concerned about what they are communicating rather than what the customer is communicating.

    Today, I am still having the same issues, despite increasing the speed, getting a new box and line and purchasing a new mode. (Frankly I am tired that I have to spend my time to get appropriate service, pay Comcast and I do not get paid for my time plus pay for a service I am not getting.) After this I was on the phone with Dennis in tech support and he will be getting back to me because in reviewing the back end tech notes they were clear and succinct that he was able to verify that indeed I had been having issues since April. (I can tell you it has been a lot longer however I do not have the time to constantly and consistently be on the phone. I have attached a screenshot showing that I today I was on the phone for an hour and twenty four minutes!)

    You have so many different departments that are non responsive or communicating with each other and it makes things exceptionally challenging for the end user. As an example the woman from the foreign country that shared the inaccuracies does not have a name. Nor am I able to obtain the transcript of our conversation. I would like a comprehensive and immediate solution (I have been a Comcast consumer for over 13 years). What I was promised? Plus I do not expect to pay overages for the duration of the contract. Since I was never told about this during the renewal of my service, I was not even aware of this until today. And whatever else you are aware that would help to ease these frustrations.

    Maria I do hope that individuals who can implement some of my issues in a constructive way do get this information. In the end a happy customer is a loyal customer. Without customers there is no Comcast. I reached out to you today due to the countless hours that I have spent in frustration hoping that if individuals such as yourself are knowledgeable of point of sale issues they can make a difference.

    This company is beyond belief. I wanted to add internet to our service and scheduled an appointment. They didn't show. I called and rescheduled. They didn't show. But they did send a technician to "fix" our t.v. - they changed a channel - and want to charge us for it. I called and talked to a rep who was supposed to give a callback - and never called. I called again and talked to a rep who wanted to sign up for a contract, and who said that the termination clause would not apply. I asked for it in writing, and he said he can't. He kept me on the phone though asking me to look at this and that. I asked (again) for a supervisor - by this time I was at the boiling point - who again told me they can't send me something in writing (of course Comcast can - this is legal and possible, but they won't). 6 hours of my time gone today.

    Comcast Internet support is inadequate. I had a problem with connectivity when we changed the computer that was wired. The wireless would not work for all devices after that. After an exhausting "chat" online that did not help, we were supposed to get a replacement modem the next day. It still has not come, and it is several days later, and they don't know why that happened. In addition, they made an appt in case that didn't work, but the modem was not even received yet to now, and the appointment was supposed to be today. In addition, come to find out, they did not really make the appointment. I am looking for another provider. They take my money for a bundle with TV/Internet/phone, and I am tired of paying money for services that are substandard. Unfortunately this company is big enough that the average customer is not valued, and your business does not really impact their overall cash flow.

    Comcast/Xfinity is thus far the worst internet provider I have ever used...which is saying something because there are some terrible providers out there. If I could give them a 0 on reliability I would. I have had them a little over 2 months and so far they have had an "outage in my area" twice both that lasted hours. As I am a remote employee and these always happen during business hours it is infuriating. Today's outage that is going on 3+ hours has been the most inconvenient as it happened while I was giving a live webinar. Oh and customer service? Yeah you can't talk to them, just a recording that says "Sorry for the inconvenience but we expect to fix the issue today" like I should thank them for that! Seriously the WORST.

    If you have a CHOICE, use someone OTHER than Comcast. I've been a customer for nearly 20 years. Comcast regularly increases prices, this is clearly a known practice. The communication only comes as an increased bill, where your choices are to blindly pay or request a call back and ask to cancel services. If they call you back, they will either offer a lesser service for a lower price or sometimes increased service for the same higher price you've been billed for anyway. Either way, it is always for a limited time (12 or 24 months) and this must be done again after the limited time (which by the time it happens you are back at learning by the increase in your bill).

    Over time, this will end up with offers that only continue to increase your price and lower your service. Clearly there are a industry created territories, so the idea of shopping at a cheaper store isn't even possible. So if you need internet for your children's school, then you are going to fall victim to this monopoly driven crime. I finally gave up on the shell game and cancelled my service. Two things have happened since doing this. The website that I would normally use to pay my bill is now a "Restricted Section", so I am not able to see or pay my bill. And second, when I (use the only means to contact them) request a phone call to resolve this, I get the call from an automated caller and immediately hung up on when I press 1 to connect the call. If I suffer any further issues trying to make my FINAL payment, I will simply turn this over to my Lawyer. Stay tuned.

    I submitted a review explain my problem with Xfinity Beta TV. In about 20 minutes after I filed my complaint Xfinity resolved the problem. I am only giving 3 stars because I shouldn't have had to deal with the problem in the beginning.

    Original Review: Sept. 3, 2019

    I have a smart TV in my bedroom. Apparently I can watch the Xfinity beta TV on my phone, or on a Kendle Fire while laying in bed, but not in a Roku TV. I am at loss to find any logical reason for this. What makes any difference what device is used. Very disappointing, after all it's only a beta system anyway.

    On Tuesday, August 27, 2019, my internet went out after a bad storm. I reached out to Comcast via chat and was directed they only handled post pay accounts and because I was a prepaid customer, they could not assist me. The agent provided me with a phone number of 1-855-757-7372 to reach the correct department. The phone number does not get you to a live agent. The IVR system just loops you around in circles, never getting you to a live person. I then called post pay customer service at 1 (800) 934-6489 where I was finally able to reach an agent on Wednesday. I explained to the agent that I had been trying to call the prepaid number for hours and was unable to reach anyone. The agent attempted troubleshooting steps with me and once they determined that their steps were not working, connected me to a live agent in the prepaid department.

    I was advised of some new troubleshooting steps that I tried both with and without the prepaid agent. The issue was not resolved. I called back in on Thursday, once again having to speak to a post pay agent and then be transferred to a prepaid agent. I once again went through the troubleshooting steps with this agent and after she determined it could not be resolved, scheduled a technician to come on Friday, August 30, 2019 between 3 and 5pm CST. On Friday, I called customer service three times to ensure the technician was coming as I saw conflicting information on their app and because of the internet outage I was unable to receive inbound calls. The technician never showed up for the appointment and at 6pm CST, cancelled my appointment which I saw through the mobile app. I immediately called customer service and again had to speak to a post pay agent to get to a prepaid agent.

    The prepaid agent seemed unwilling to assist so I requested a supervisor. The supervisor stated they were going to assist me, and then put me on hold to review my account and reach out to the technician to come back by. This supervisor left me on hold for over an hour and a half and never came back to the phone. I had to hang up and call back. After explaining to yet another agent of the issues and attempting troubleshooting and just wanting them to send someone out to fix the connection, the agent told me that the technician came by but did not require entrance to my home as they only needed to work outside. This is untrue as I was repeatedly checking outside for the technician that never showed up.

    After requesting yet another supervisor, this supervisor advised me that they could not reach out to the technicians in any way as they are independent contractors and continued to force a late appointment on me after I explained that the outage was not my fault, the technician not coming was not my fault, and that I worked from home and could not work for several days because of this outage. They still refused to send out a technician in a time frame that I was initially promised. As of today, I am still without internet service that I pay for and another technician is not scheduled until Sunday between 5pm and 7pm CST causing me to miss out on an additional two days of working.

    If you can go with anyone else do...I have had nothing but issues and lies from customer service since I started with them. The only reason I came back is because my husband liked the channel line up better. But the customer service is horrible. They screwed up my bill and want me to pay it all then they will come back later and credit me the money. Now I have to unhook the equipment, take it just to have a tech come out and bring new equipment and start over. This is so ridiculous. He said they didn't tell me everything that when I called prior I was misinformed. Oh I am always misinformed. Nothing but a bunch of LIARS.

    So now here I am without cable/internet until they can straighten this all out. But what should I expect? It has been like this since day 1. DirecTv has awesome customer service, ATT stinks also just as bad as Comcast. So please before you make the same mistake I did and listen to all the freebies Comcast offers signing up with them, know this...you never get it they find a way to say that you didn't qualify. The gift cards...didn't get them, the credits....didn't get them. They are all lies to drag you into the contract of hell.

I looked in my contract and there is a link that is is the same color and hard to see that takes you to a series of links that you have click again to find this. I feel I have been deceived.

    I have had Xfinity for a number of years now, and I have hated it everyday. The only reason I keep them is because they're the only ones who service in my area. My internet goes out at least 12 times a week. I've been through 4 routers, and there is still no change. When I call Xfinity about the problem, their solution is for me to pay for a tech to come out to my house to check my box. So I'm having to pay for a repair that is not even my fault and out of my control. It's just a crap company who doesn't care at all about their customers.

    When I finally got them to listen to me to send a tech out for free, the tech shows up at my house, waits of few minutes, then he leaves and said that contact could not be made with the customer. I only know this because I got a text saying I missed my appointment when I was at home, and I looked at my surveillance camera and saw him just sitting in his car waiting for 5 minutes then proceeded to leave. Only get this company if it is your only choice and may God help you.

We call to change the info, they turn the internet back on, and then delete our info. So we go through the same horrible, mostly automated process every month and they simply refuse to make any changes. Whether it's due to their complete incompetence of customer service, or because they're deliberately trying to be a horrible company, they continue to completely disappoint.

    Comcast Service is horrible. This company has the worst customer service that I have ever seen in a company in my life, and I am a business owner. Every time I need assistance no one is ever available. Unless it’s from another country that doesn’t speak any English. The representatives of this company far outweigh in a bad way any pile of dog feces that I may scoop up from my yard on a thunderstorm day. The worst was I have been paying for internet for three years and have turned in my modem box for replacement counting six times. Only to have the same reoccurring problems, with no one to even speak with about these issues, because the phone numbers are provided as a scam to trick people into thinking this company cares about its customers.

    If you actually cared about your customers, you might try answering the telephone when people are having problems. This company has cost me money due to down service and not being attentive to anyone’s needs. My wife can testify to how irritated we have become with Comcast’s Service, and how we’d rather just throw your equipment into the garbage. What has happened in the world to where people just stopped caring about customer service. You know without customers-you wouldn’t exist. And what’s sad is that so many people have service with you, you could really even care about the people that struggle with these same issues every day. I wish your company the best of luck for being the best at being the worst. It’s no personal insult to voice my frustration in a company that doesn’t care about their customers.

    Will be going to the BBB and Attorney General for Comcast's unethical billing practices. If you have other options you may want to pursue them. My recommendation is to never give this company auto-pay. In May 2019 I added HBO to my subscription for an extra $15 a month. In June the bill was $35 extra. I assumed there must have been a charge for setting up the HBO service and/or partial service during the prior month. So I paid the bill without contacting Customer Service for clarification. In July the bill was $48 extra and this time I decided to go to the Xfinity store to talk to someone about the billing. Waited for about 10 minutes with zero movement in the waiting area and asked how many were in front of me. The answer was 11.

    Now I decided to call Customer Service to find out why the billing was so high and got transferred to Sammi in the Loyalty Department. The explanation was that the package I was subscribed to was no longer available and that I would need to choose a new one. There was about an hour of the customer service rep trying to sell me more expensive options, the least expensive of my choices was $158 a month. We finally got back to the basic TV/Internet service plan I wanted and worked out a 2 year subscription I was willing to sign up for. I needed to pay the full amount of the overcharged bill and the August bill would be at the new rate and credited for the extra amount I paid on the July bill. I digitally signed the new 2 year agreement. (Total call was about an hour and a half.)

    I checked the August bill and it was still at $158, so I called Customer Service again. They said there was no record of my last phone call and eventually transferred me to William in the Loyalty Department. He needed to work out another package for me, but this time it cost $10 a month more than the one Sammi worked out. The August bill would be at the new rate and there would be a credit on my bill for the extra paid on the July bill. All of that would show up within 5 days. I digitally signed the 2 year agreement. (Total call was a little over an hour.)

    I went to pay the August bill and it was still at $158, so I called Customer Service to get clarification. They had no record of my previous calls, and eventually transferred me to Daniel in the Loyalty Department. Sound familiar? I insisted he find the records of my last calls rather than explain the whole issue all over again. After some time he was finally able to find the record from my agreement with the last customer service rep (William).

    He said he would follow through to make sure the billing reflected the new agreement. But that he could only give a $23 credit. He told me that was all taken care of on his side and it should all be visible to me online. I explained that it was not visible online, he said it should be and to go ahead and just pay the amount we agreed to and it would credit properly. It did not, and continued to notify me of a balance due on my bill. So I paid the entire $158 minus the $23 credit. (Total call was 42 minutes). We'll see how it all works out on the next bill...

    I went back to Comcast/Xfinity in March of 2019 and since March/2019, I have not had continuous internet service. Calling Comcast for technical or for that matter anything is pure hell. I have unplugged my modem a thousand times, I call and get nothing from the Comcast reps. I can't make a telephone call without the line going dead in the middle of the call. I'm on my laptops and the internet goes out, you have no idea how frustrating this is. I pay a little over $200 a month which is $2400 a year for service I am not getting.

    I called Comcast last week and the rep was busy up-selling me and today I had no service for most of the day. Last week I was also supposed to get a call to complete a customer satisfaction survey. When I got the call, the line went dead as soon as I answered. I called back and was told that there was no further action needed from me. Of course this is a contract, but what happens when you're not getting the service your contracted for.

    I called about upgrading my service from internet only to internet home and tv with their promotion at the time. I did like the idea of switching but was not completely sure I wanted to yet. At that time the sales department stated, "Hey how about this you get to try everything out for 30 days and if you decide you do not like it then there are no charges or penalties to cancel it" and I would take down and return cameras and sensors. So that is what I fell for thinking 30 day trial so I agreed and had it put in.

    I did not once use the system to secure it or really need it so before 30 days I called and cancelled then returned all equipment. Now 1 month later I get a 400 dollar bill and said I still have to pay for service for time it was in and not full credit back to my internet only so now I'll be shopping for other services.

    My family has had Comcast WiFi for 3 years. We stream our T.V. and movies via Roku, Sling, Netflix and other streaming apps. In the beginning we had many connectivity issues, lots of buffering, and daily signal dropping. The MBPS continued to drop and the price continued to go up. Then we moved into a house with family but we are renting separate floors of the same house. After a service call to install the WiFi at the new house, cancelling the family member with different service without authorization on a different floor, and changing our service to include tv & phone, we were told we could not have separate accounts in the same house.

    We then cancelled our Comcast account. We received the final bill for the service call ($25.00) that said, "Payment upon receipt" and less than a month later the bill was sent to collections. Comcast has negatively affected my credit for $25.00 and for the worst internet connection ever. We have now switched to RCN and for $49.99/month we are loving our 1000 MBPS.

    Comcast has the worst service ever. I pay just over $220 per month for Cable and Internet. For the month of August and as of 08/14/19, I have endured 10 days of outage with 4 days of receiving the services I pay for (Service up-time was Identified by my FINGbox report.) Oddly enough, when internet goes down you cannot change the channels, pause, fast forward, on the cable service. After waiting on hold for approximately 40 minutes for raising a formal complaint to Comcast's "NO-Customer Service department" I was given a $27 credit and reminded of my 2 year contract. If you're looking for communication services, run fast and run hard. Comcast is not a viable option for someone who actually want to be provided services for their hard working money.

    Terrible, terrible, terrible!!! If you're thinking of getting Xfinity (Comcast) DON'T do it to yourself!! Had a salesperson come to my house and convinced me to switch back from Fios. Well it’s been a week and the TVs keep losing service and the internet is currently out waiting for a Tech. I currently have my Fios hooked back up until the tech comes at 7:30 am on my day off!! They however did not hesitate to get that first bill out, without the promised $300 credit to cancel my Verizon service. It is surely not worth any savings to have service that does not work most of the time or is spotty service. Don’t do it to yourself, don’t go with Comcast. Verizon is a little more pricey but worth it!!!!

    When I moved into my new home, I contacted Comcast Residential because my neighbor had their service. I live 600 ft off of the road so I knew there could be some challenges. After 2 visits from Comcast Residential and multiple phone calls, they determined it would cost $4,700 for the construction and installation. When I told them I owned a business, they said I should call Comcast Business. The customer service agent on the business side assured me that if I sign a 3 year contract at $199 per month, there would be NO construction charge and they gave me a date of July 14th of completion. Given that the process started in May, I waited patiently through the end of July and then reached out because I had not heard from anyone. My emails began going into a black hole with no response. Finally, in early August, two reps told me that installation was scheduled for Monday between 5 - 7 PM.

    We made arrangements to be here at that time but were skeptical because another agent said the installation could not be done without an additional fee. No one showed up on that Monday and we have been told that construction costs are higher than expected so we'll have to pay $5000 plus an additional monthly fee. No thanks, Comcast! I'd rather use dial-up than deal with your sorry company ever again!

    We just moved and never have had Xfinity service before. I checked online and their website said that we could receive service at our new location. I ordered a self-installation kit for our new home instead of paying for a technician to come out. Easy, my daughter said. 20 minutes Comcast's paperwork said. After 2 tries following the app we still weren't online and the app said I needed to call Xfinity. After being on the phone for 53 minutes, we still weren't online and the representative said we would need to pay a technician to come out because there wasn't service at our address. We asked for a supervisor and waited another 20 minutes. The supervisor said they could not waive the service call fee so we said we were going to cancel. He didn't budge and sent us to Customer Solutions.

    You would think that a company would want to keep new business. Customer Solutions wasn't any help either and just said we'd have to pay the fee or we could send the equipment back. We had signed up for a 2 year agreement and they just didn't care that we were going to send the box of their equipment back to them and cancel our $130 a month contract with them in less than 24 hours!!!

Xfinity is a band of thieves from my experience. If you've had a similar experience, keep your eyes and ears open for a class action suit against Xfinity.

    On 7/16, I decided I would get 1000Mbps Internet Speed Package, since the difference in the plan was around $10 with the present promotion. Sometimes I want to flick through the channels and see the current listings. Thus, I asked the representative if there was a plan I could use with my Android TV (at the time, they didn't ask which model, and I didn't ask if they supported my device) as my husband is disabled and our budget is limited-paying for cable boxes that we don't get to own seems ridiculous.

    The representative added TV on to the plan, they didn't explain that it was only 10 channels, and the bill would increase around $30 because of fees that Comcast says are transparent and yet their plans don't explain these fees at all (e.g. Regional Sports Fee, and Broadcast TV fees). I asked right away if I could cancel the TV without any charges and without affecting my Internet pricing (which was the plan they offered online for new packages). The representative said that I could cancel with no problems and no fees.

    A couple of days later, while testing to see if my Internet speed was correct, I realized my Nvidia Shield was not compatible with Xfinity Stream Application, and you cannot just plug in the cable wire because of everything needs a box. I spoke to another representative who told me that only Roku TV box was compatible with their app, which is something they should have told me. However, the representative was nice and fixed the Internet speed. I asked him to cancel the cable deal since it didn’t work as stated. I checked my bill a few days later and found out I was going to be charged for this service I could not use. I spoke with another representative for a long period of time. They would not reverse the charges and could not give me the package (just Internet 1000Mbps) that I wanted in the first place. I spoke to a supervisor, and they could not reverse the charges either.

    I called the next day, and I was told since I started a package I couldn’t sign up as a new package (even though all I wanted was the package that I was promised to begin with). The package ended up after fees almost $130, so I figured the plan they said I could sign up for was $110 + 15 for my cable modem; however, with all the fees, it ended up $167. Now, this is a package I was basically railroaded into getting as they wanted to charge me for channels I couldn’t use. I didn’t want to pay a monthly price, so I purchased a Roku for $60. If the bill was $125, plus taxes, would have no complaint, but all they do is add fees that are far from transparent. The age of cable TV is almost over, and they are trying to make up for it by ripping their customers off. If they weren’t the only company offering over 100Mbps, we would have canceled years ago!!!

    I am not surprised about Comcast poor customer service based on customer reviews and personal experience. However, I was very disappointed with how Senior management handles customer complaints with such a bullying attitude which tells me why their employees display this same lack of customer service skills. I upgraded my cable plan via the phone but was sent a text to confirm the plan which I didn't realize all the extra fees that I would be charged because they were in small print and as a senior citizen I didn't think this would happen. It wasn't until I received a bill for over $500 that I started calling Comcast and was NOT able to get anyone who could speak English nor comprehend my concerns so I became frustrated and filed a complaint with the Public Commission Service.

    I received a phone call from one of Comcast Senior staff, Kerry who also had no customer service skills and ended the conversation by telling me that I had nothing to dispute. He never apologized for the behavior of his staff, then reported that since the phone conversation was not recorded that there was nothing could be done. And this behavior said to me upper management supports the bad behavior of their employees, like it or not. I even sent several emails to the CEO Brian Roberts which was also senseless. His representative, Cynthia **, who also lacked good customer service skills supported this bad behavior. My only request has been to be able to terminate my cable contract and just maintain my internet plan due to skyrocketing fees and charges that were able to plan that's not affordable and definitely wasn't discussed.

We believed him and went ahead and signed up. 6 months later we needed to close the business. Our sales rep told us to cancel our residential service and moving the business internet service to our home would be the easiest thing to do. We did so. When the installation guy showed up he gave me a document to sign saying it was authorization to install the service at our home. I signed it. Now due to a medical situation, we have to move to another state where they do not offer service.

    So I contacted our sales rep who provided me with a phone number to call. During this call, I find out the installation authorization I signed was actually a new contract for three years which I never would have signed had I been made aware of this fact. They are telling me the only option to get out of the contract is to pay over $1700 early termination fee. I spent over 2 hours on the phone trying to get this resolved. My Sales Rep is telling me he is going to go to bat for me, but Comcast as a business is totally inflexible and dishonest in my opinion.

The first issue I had was receiving a notice that I would have to pay 2 payments and a late fee due to "missing" a payment, but luckily I keep receipts. Then, my roommate and I were offered a free month of basic cable and we installed the cable box ourselves so we wouldn't be charged a cancellation fee, but when the month was over we were charged, and In full, so we returned the cable box because it was fair and the bill would have been out of our budget to keep it.

    Now, due to moving out of state, our services were supposed to be put on a temporary hold so we could figure out if the area we're moving to had Comcast as a provider, and would only be charged $8 a month and was never told that we would have to return the box in 10 days if the services were cut off instead, which apparently happens automatically if you live in an apartment, and if you don't return the equipment within the 10 days after your service shut off you're charged $250 for a non-return fee. I got a "courtesy" call just 3 days before the equipment was due before being charged the $250 that I was never at all told about. Why would I bring my equipment across an entire coast line if I was going to be charged this ridiculous fee? Why were my services cancelled without my permission, consent, or even notice?

Other than that the actual service is only $9.95 per month. Comcast I.E. offers close to unlimited data or at least more than enough data for what I need for doing things online. However, after one year of mostly smooth service, Comcast seems to have lowered my connection speed. The modem made a grinding noise when I first started using the service and everything transferred smoothly. Now the modem is completely quiet... Comcast has decided to turn my transfer rate down, making my internet experience at times, so frustrating that I consider throwing my laptop computer on the floor and jumping up and down on it.

    I can no longer play 2 of my favorite online games, and I can barely scroll pages of text without them freezing and stuttering. I am planning on buying a new PC and replacing my outdated laptop which might resolve some of my issues, but I have been unsuccessful in convincing Comcast to turn my transfer rate back up so that everything can run smoothly again. I don't know why they don't just turn the transfer rate back up, but it seems I might need to buy a different service if this doesn't get better.

    I have had Comcast internet for the past 14 years, during that time I would lose service for one reason or another and it was not from equipment (modem or WIFI) within my home. Every time I called about it, I get the standard recording "there is an outage in your area, our technicians are working to resolve the problem, and should have it fixed by 3 pm". There have been times I would not have service for 24 to 48 hours. But would be charged for it. Now to all Comcast users you have to ask for the credit even though Comcast knows about the area outage.

    Well Google Fiber finally made it to my area, and I switched over in May. I turned in all my Comcast equipment and informed the young lady that I no longer desired the services from Comcast. Upon checking my account, I noticed the only thing dropped was TV. I called Comcast to correct this, and was told the problem was corrected and that the date service ended would be changed to the 29th. Now 20 days later instead of seeing a credit for half a month, I see they are charging my bank account $150 for next month's service. Once again I called I had to explain everything, I read off the email Comcast sent verifying terminated date of service, and was then informed that billing apparently was not informed and that I was to get $200 back in 4 to 6 weeks but there was nothing they could due to stop the charge for next month.

    To me they are crooks. Every month when my bill is due, they take it out of my bank. I would imagine they would charge late fees or interrupt service then a service charge to reconnect. But it takes up to six weeks for a refund. They are collecting interest on everyone's money who recently dropped Comcast service. What a money making scheme they have.

    I was a Comcast subscriber for over 6 years. The last time last time they called about a change in service I asked, “Does this package include HGTV and the Food Network?” They said it did, or I wouldn’t have taken it. About eight months later I get a letter saying that I had been receiving these channels by a programming mistake that had been giving them to me for free, but they would now cost more if I wanted to keep them. Some marketing director must have thought he was real smart. It just ticked me off. I was already paying over $80.00/month for service and this was going to cost me an extra $10.00. I left and went with DirecTV. I paid about the same but got more channels and less bull. After that they came back and demanded $100.00 early contract cancellation. Like a fool I had thrown the letter away and wasn’t going after a lawyer for $100.00. But before I ever go back to Comcast I will go back to the radio.

    First of all not only have I been a customer since the 1990s, I have worked for them (and I can tell you horror stories about their internal processes too). As a worker, I had no worries about the prices. But after I left and had to reduce my package, no matter what I did I was going to pay 200.00 per month or more. I only worked with them for two years, and prior to that I paid 120.00 for the same services. They wouldnt let me move to All-Ip either, acting like I was talking about the stream only service. In the end I switched to AT&T, only because they have fiber right in front on my house. I'm not crazy about AT&T either, but at least for a while I'm not saddled with a rudiculous bill for internet and simple cable.

The contract stated if you move, and they cannot service you still have to pay a early termination fee. This is unethical to put this clause in a contract when the company cannot even service the new location, if you can service the new location and they do not transfer. I get it but when you tried your hardest for service ...not right.

    My bill was normally $44.99/ month so the cancellation was more than my monthly charge as well. This is corrupt corporation and they are only worried about the bottom $$, what they do to customers is unethical and a shame.

I have been with Comcast since 1995 and my parents have been with them since 1988. I wanted to keep the cable just the way it is with all the upgraded channels and all 4 movie channels that we had. The agent found me a better price. She said it would be $30 cheaper per bill and I said, "Ok let's do it." Within an hour and a half of getting this done she was courteous and professional. When the smoke all cleared 6 days later I've talked to 4 different people including the right hand man of Tom ** and was told nothing could be done for me and that the agent was sent back for more training.

    You see what happened is the agent saved us money and took away all our movie channels and a few premium channels that was part of a Triple Play Package they discontinued. For us to get the channels back that we originally had it would cost us $40 and $50 more per mo. Again SHAME ON YOU COMCAST! I called AT&T U-verse and we are getting the same upgraded package with all movie channels for $160mo. I'm sorry to leave but the customer service I received was underhanded and wrong.

    Calling their service High speed is laughable. 150Mb/s down 30Mb/s up in a metropolitan area, Packet loss beyond belief, daily outages, inept customer service, and monopolistic tendencies. The world would be better without Comcast. High speed. In 2019 can asymmetrical 150/30 be called high speed internet? I don't think it can. Anything sub 200Mb/s full duplex is not "High Speed", and we aren't talking about Megabytes per second, we're talking Megabits per second. Don't even get me started on their routing, if the person who designed their routing table applied as an actual skilled worker, then he either lied, or the establishment who trained him should rethink their line of work. And to top it all off they don't feel the need to provide faster service because they have ripped the competition out root and stem. You don't have an option, you're going to pay their price for their speed, and you're going to like it.

    Packet loss. On average between 10 locations I have Comcast installed we see a 2.5-6% packet loss per site. Anything greater than .1% packet loss outside of maintenance windows should be looked at as shameful. Outages. Notifying customers of planned outages? Naaah. Giving a reasonable window of outage time when contacted? Naaah. Customer service. They aren't trained network engineers, and they shouldn't be, but the time and number of escalations to get to somebody who has any training in actual network design makes it impossible to get anything fixed.

So, called (waited) and finally spoke to an agent that determined that someone needed to be sent out to check out our equipment. So, they decided that we needed a new cable (more $) and a new router (more $). They keep finding ways to screw you. Why is no one investing Comcast!

Took out a wide area of Comcast service...several hundred subscribers...including me. I reported the outage and they told me it would be fixed in 4 hours. When I checked again in 4 hours, I was told it would be fixed in another 4 hours. When I checked then, it was pushed out another 4 hours. This went on until the service came back after being out about 30 hours. They sent me a text message that my service had been restored. Problem is that it wasn't. I called tech support again and the techie confirmed he couldn't reach my modem. He ordered a technician to come out and get me connected. However, he couldn't get one out for another 8 days!!! Imagine Comcast being off the internet for 8 days.

    You KNOW they'd put more resources on the issue to fix it. Why haven't they called in techs from surrounding areas??? Why don't they have techs work longer hours? Once they get my Comcast Business internet working again, Comcast and I are going to have a Come to Jesus discussion and they're going to have to give me some SERIOUS compensation (in the form of future service at no charge) to make up for their lack of quality service.

So simple of a matter of a tech showing up on time, and setting up a wireless router, one would think was a snap, but the blatant dishonestly, and one would assume incompetence of their customer support center, is something "out of this world."

Every year they automatically increase the monthly bills by saying "your promotional offer has been expired".

Now that's not the worst part, the worst part is they put you on another 12 months agreement while giving you that "promotional" price", and you don't even know it.

The next thing you know I am checking my bill a couple days later in my bill is 35 more dollars. I ask the representative when I called Comcast why it was so high. She had informed me that I had switch to the Triple Play which I did not even know I had dawned I was on the Blast package for 74 bucks among plus another $5 for speed should be $80. For some reason my new bill was a 110.

    After countless calls to customer representatives and resolution teams I finally got ahold of a manager who went back and listened to the phone call. After she listened to the phone call she informed me that I would be getting reimbursed the $35 for the past 4 months and that she was going to work up something to get me back on the plan that I was on.

    We were paying almost 180.00 for Triple Play package. Box went out and we took it to a store. While we were there rep looked at account to see if he could save us money. He saved us a few bucks with a 2 year contract. When got home we no longer had any of the channels that we watched. The rep promised us nothing would change about our stations. Liar! Every rep you speak to can't answer your questions and it is a total scam. Putting you on hold, etc. My spouse told the one of many foreigners that we were going to package up everything, bring it to the store and cancel all of it.

    Finally got a resolution specialist to fix the situation. I hate Comcast and wish they had some giant lawsuit to make them be regulated. My advice Do not change anything. If you need a new box, just get that and don't change anything. They purposely screw things up to get more money out of you. I am thinking they do something to your modem or boxes to get you involved with calling them. Don't fall for their Okie Doke.

    Comcast have a service that is called prepaid internet. With this service they don't ask for a deposit or a contract. Only the customer will buy the box and pay the first month when you want the service. What they don't told you is the box that you getting is used and do not work only for few days of course. I paid $80.00 dollar for that service that only had one day 'cause the box wasn't working. They will replaced it for other the same used and not working. I lost one day trying to get my service working or my money back but I couldn't. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE MONEY AND TIME PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS "PREPRAID INTERNET."

I was not billed $79.99, but $99.99. They said I agreed to it, and that there's nothing they can do. I didn't agree because I didn't have a computer to acknowledge and agree. Sneaky -- I gave them the name of the person who quoted the info but they can't find the phone call... and there's no promotion going on now so they can't change....

    For the second time in the last few weeks, I have experienced trying to get on the Internet with instructions to restart my service. The first time went smoothly, except that I did not know I had lost the service through no fault of mine, I might add. I did miss the opportunity to work from home for many hours, because I have a laptop tied into my wifi. Tonight took me 35 minutes with a technician named Kevin between the hours of 6 and 6:35 pm, when I finally got service, on Thursday, April 25, 2019, who had me disconnect the black cord and unscrew the cable. The latter was difficult because I lack strength. No one should have to go through that! And certainly not so often!

    When I told Kevin I was having difficulty he threatened me with paying 50.00 if the cause was on my end. My service is much slower than AT&T and that was pretty bad; however, I am likely to return to their much more expensive service, as I am getting my money's worth with my introductory offer of 19.99/month and will have to continue to suffer through these ordeals through the second year at a higher price! There were no storms in this area today by the way. My time is important also, Comcast, and there was no reason on my end to have interrupted service.

    Comcast has the absolute worse customer service ever. Their automated answering is unable to recognize English no matter how clearly you articulate it. They keep zero records of what has been discussed about your account and given you have been a customer for over 10 years and faithfully paid your bill on time every month they still don't see that as a reason to not schedule service men to come shut off your service when their automated billing screws up and doesn't take your payment. No phone call, no investigation, they just shut your internet off. After spending at least 3 hrs on the phone trying to get it sorted out and thinking you have you wake up the next day to have to repeat the whole process again. But that is not the end of the story so wait for it.

    About 4 days later you check your Xfinity account to see if everything is back to normal only to discover they have charged your acct. $210.00 for early termination. Yes you heard it right. I can assure you that would have never been found and corrected by anyone who works for Comcast. I had to call and go thru another 2 hrs on the phone bringing all this to their attention. After filling out several surveys of my opinion of their Customer Service I agreed to let them follow up with me by phone and chose "morning" as the best time. Guess when they called? Easter Sunday at around 6 pm...dinner time. Oh yeah.. The only word that comes to mind in all my encounters with Comcast is...IDIOTS.

    In August 2018, I canceled my television service with Xfinity and requested to keep my month-to-month contract for 250 MB internet service. The salesperson offered 1 gig internet service for the same price if I signed a 24-month agreement. I explained that I wanted to stay month-to-month because I might be moving to a place without Comcast for work.

    The salesperson unequivocally told me that cancellation fees would be waived if I moved to a place that Comcast did not serve. When I moved seven months later, I received a $180 cancellation fee and representatives from Comcast now tell me that there is nothing they can do. This was outright fraud by the sales team. And it wasn't the first instance of fraudulent behavior by their sales staff. In November 2017, I received an email out of nowhere thanking me for upgrading my television service - which I had not done!

    Evidently an unscrupulous salesperson had upgraded my service without my approval. They apologized and reversed the charges, but it's more evidence that this is a company to avoid if possible. On top of all of this, my "gig" internet service never topped 230 MB in the seven months that I had it. They simply did not deliver anything close to their advertised speed. Internet service (in Redwood City, CA) was also spotty. We'd have to restart our Xfinity modem several times a day to keep a signal in our house. In short, stay away from Xfinity if at all possible!

    I called Comcast in Feb 2019 to find out when my contract would expire and see what plans were available. The CSR told me that I could get better speed and TV for $39.99 a month with Broadcast TV fee of 9.60 Est taxes $1.48 $51.84. I paid my last bill which was $29.99 then with all the pro rating and advanced charges I paid another bill of $82.67 then I went back online to see what my next bill would be. $70.06. Looked at the charges. My base rate was increased to 44.99. They claim because I was not on auto pay. Looked at original contract and states I could save an additional $5.00 a month for auto pay. Don't trust them so I had it removed. My broadcast TV jumped to 21.05 and taxes 4.12.

    The issue was not honoring contract. Raising rates 1.5 months after changing services. When I called back about this issue the CSR was clueless at best. Had to repeat myself many times. Asked for supervisor. He was of course busy but was given a ticket number. Promised a call back in 30 minutes. Waited 2 hours so go went to online chat. She was at least somewhat helpful so I looked at some other reviews and the only way you can get Comcast to help you is to make a complaint to the FCC and BBB which I did. Got a e-mail from corporate office offering to remove the Instant TV which was only 10 channels. Got more through my antenna and give same speed internet 60m for $19.99 a month.

    I also got an e-mail from someone at Comcast who handles FCC complaints will leave his name out. Told him what happened. I expect my price to go up in the next month or two. Advised I would just file another complaint with the FCC. He asked me to call him first. I told him point blank that the CSRs lie and are unethical. Also pointed out that they should remove the word INTEGRITY form their core values because they have no idea what the word means.

    Keep your eyes on bills. Comcast practices gradually increase monthly bills, even if a service under a contract. It is first. Second Comcast makes billings due day early than it was set up, on a couple days, sometimes earlier, to force customers pay late fee, if the Customers late pay their bills. Also that way gives Comcast to make extra cash, because Customers pay more than 12 times in a year. Plus the internet speed much slow than promised. Terrible way to make money.

    BEWARE OF COMCAST! OR LIES, LIES AND MORE LIES! In early February 2019, I answered a Comcast advertisement I received in the mail for two years of Internet and TV at $35 a month. I called the 800 number provided (855-888-2173), and a salesperson who identified herself as Traneka, located in the Miami area, suggested I would be better off with a package called X1 Starter Triple Play for two years at $79.99 a month, not including various taxes, for Internet and TV plus telephone service, and including Showtime and Starz at no cost for one year, as long as I signed up for Autopay and Paperless Billing (which I did). I also signed up for a smartphone that was to cost $4 a month, and I was to receive a $200 Visa Prepaid Credit card for the X1 Starter Triple Play and a second $250 Visa Prepaid Credit card for the phone.

    In the easily hour-and-a-half-detailed conversation I had with her, I told her I had been a long time U-Verse 200 customer, and I would need to duplicate all of the features I had been receiving from AT&T, including: a second receiver, the ability to record programs, free HDTV, two telephone lines with a hunting feature and call waiting, and the ability to watch the DIY and NFL networks without an extra charge. She said the cost to duplicate this service would be $109 a month with Autopay and Paperless Billing. She also gave me the make and model number of a modem I could purchase so I would not need to rent one from Comcast at $13 a month.

    Now, this is what actually happened: LIE 1: The modem she recommended did not have Wi-Fi or telephone capabilities, so it could not be used, and it cost me $9 to return it to Amazon. LIE 2: I now do have to pay Xfinity’s $13 a month’s modem rental fee. LIE 3: The installers were not told I had two phone lines, so there was an extra $11.95 per month charge for the 2nd line. LIE 4: The HD Technology Fee had not been waived as she promised, so there was an extra $9.95 a month fee for that.

    LIE 5: The DIY and NFL networks can be reached “on demand” as she indicated, but they are not free as she had stated - there is an extra charge to watch them. LIE 6: The DVR was not included as she promised, so there was an extra $10 a month fee for it. LIE 7: Apparently, she had made no provision for me to receive the two Visa Prepaid Credit cards totaling $450. LIE 8: The smartphone, that she assured me would remain at $4 a month, is now being billed at $8.71 a month.

    Bottom line, my monthly Comcast charges, not including the smartphone, are now $44.90 (or more than 40 percent) higher per month (or more than $1077 higher over Comcast’s 24 month contract) than promised, I am losing out on another $460 for the Visa Prepaid Credit cards and the Amazon restocking charge, and the smartphone charges are more than double than promised. In total, the overcharges will come to close to $1600 over the next 24 months - assuming Comcast will not institute other increases (that she said they would not do) along the way.

    I have spoken with Comcast’s billing people about these unkept promises and they have refused to honor the commitments made by their own salesperson in Florida, proving that Comcast’s sales techniques are nothing more than LIES, LIES AND MORE LIES. So even if you get a contract in writing from Comcast like I did, my advice is to be very wary. And you might be wise to get your Internet, TV and phone service elsewhere.

    I haven't had an interruption in service, as some of the reviewers here have had. Nevertheless, the quality of customer service is very low. I woke up to the fact that we were throwing away $232/mo on cable, internet and phone. We did subscribe to HBO, but that would still only account for a fraction of the total. We've been Comcast customers for over 5 years, and I thought that they would be willing to work with us on reducing the amount of money that we spent every month. They said that there wasn't anything they could do unless we reduced the internet speed. Because we sometimes work from home, that wasn't really an option.

    I elected to stop cable and phone in order to reduce our bill. It did reduce it, but only to $105/mo. We bought an antenna for the TV, and we have always used our cell phones. When I got the bill last month, they still charged $232. I called and the situation was resolved, but it still upset me. I called Verizon. They offered me cable (with HBO), internet and phone plus one year of Netflix for $134/mo, and the internet is considerably faster (FIOS). I'm not endorsing Verizon - I'm sure that they're equally as evil as Comcast. All I can say is the service will be noticeably less AND considerably faster.

    The only part of the company that seems to work is the billing department. From previous experience, I know they also scam existing customers into hiking prices to an unreasonable level, a year or two after activation.

    Updated on 05/03/2019: I first wrote a review about Comcast and their poor customer service on March 31st, of this year. The issue I wrote about is still ongoing. The issue began with a contractor from D.R. Horton cutting our internet line while removing sod on March 27th. We had the cable/internet line pre-marked by Miss Utility because we were going to have a tree delivered and planted. Still the contractors managed to miss seeing orange paint and flags marking the internet/cable line and cut it in multiple places. After doing a self repair on the line, calling Comcast we waited from someone to show up. We were given an appointment for the next day Thursday March 28th. No one ever showed up.

    I call again, are given another date and appointment, this time Saturday March 30th. Same thing again. No one shows up. When I do call customer service the quality of the service varies. Sometimes you get someone who on top of their job, other times someone who is rude. Once again I get another date and appointment time. This time Monday April 1st. This time someone does show up but it is in the middle of a rain storm. The technician does the repair, removes our temporary patch. We thank him and he is on his way. Two days later more issues start. Our service is in and out, in and out over a period of a week before I call them again.

    I go through all of the modem checks and jump through all of the hoops that Comcast request of their customers in order to prove there is an issue with your service. The first person I spoke with realize there was an issue and made a repair appointment for the following week on Wednesday April 17th as that was the earliest appointment available. It was April 10th when I called about the issue. The customer service rep did put us on a wait list for Saturday April 13th and offered a to refund some money for the constant outages. By Friday April 12th Comcast was calling us multiple times a day trying to get us to cancel our appointment. They said everything looked fine from their end. When we refused they took us off of the wait list.

    They moved our appointment with a technician to Tuesday April 16th. On Saturday April 13th we received no less than five calls from Comcast wanting us to cancel our appointment. Cut to Tuesday April 16th, the technician comes out looks at the line and finds four additional cuts in the line the previous tech missed in the rain storm on April 1st. Water getting the line was causing our service to come and go. Because the line might have more damage than he can see, he runs a new line across our driveway and through the front yard with clear instructions that it is to be buried in two to five business days. The technician said if Comcast contractors do not show up in that time then I would need to call them. That is what I ended up doing.

    I called and was told it would take up to fourteen days to get someone out to bury the cable. I was given the appointment date of May 2nd between 7 am to 8 pm. Today May 2nd, on returning home around 1:20 pm there was a contractor from Comcast parked in front of my home. He walked around for a bit, looked at the cable in the yard. He then tried to start a generator on the trailer he had in tow behind his truck. Next time I look out my window his truck was facing the opposite direction in front of my house, then it just pulled away. Meanwhile the cable was still across my driveway and yard not buried.

    I called Comcast to ask what was going on, they said they would look into it and call me back. Three hours pass and still no call back. I call Comcast again, this time I was told they still had until 8 pm to come back out to bury the line. I call again at 8:06 pm as no one had come back out. Now I have another appointment for cable burial tomorrow May 3rd between 8 am to 8 pm. The fact this has been going on since March 27th until now is hard to wrap my head around. When our contract is up we will be looking for another provider because I cannot keep dealing with the level of incompetence that Comcast is displaying.

    Original Review: I sit here trying to write this review while trying not to get upset again. This horror story started on Wednesday March 27th of this week when some idiot contractors hired by D.R. Horton cut our cable line for the third time in less than five months. I know accidents happen but this was beyond that. We had just had all utility lines marked by Miss Utility the week before and where they cut had been clearly marked with orange flags that had cable line written on them in bold black and orange paint sprayed on the ground.

    Needless to say we get home, notice our cable was not working, walked outside to the sidewalk to see the cut/damaged cable line lying on the dirt, no contractors in sight. We immediately call Comcast, go through the whole song and dance of checking the modem, blah, blah, blah, finally get a live person on the phone. My husband is making the call this time. He explains that the cable has been cut by contractors and we need someone to come out, repair and rebury the cable. He was then told the earliest they could have someone come out was Saturday March the 30th. After getting off the phone we both said no way are we going to go three days without our internet which is our only source for T.V. and Internet.

    So my husband goes out makes a temp patch with some cable we have and electrical tape. That does the trick, internet back up. Next thing we know we are getting a call from Comcast, "Oh we notice your service is working" yeah because my husband put a temp patch on it. Then the tune changed to, "We can have someone out to your house between noon and 4 pm tomorrow March 28th, but you must be home." Fine, so I wait and wait and wait, and no one ever shows up. So I call Comcast, they tell me the appointment was canceled "BY WHOM" not I.

    Now, "We cannot have anyone out to your house until Saturday March 30th." "What time?" "They will be there between 5 pm and 7 pm. You don't need to be home since they are doing work outside." Wrong we do need to be home as this is a gated community and the only way they are getting through those gates are if we let them in. So we wait, wait and wait. At 6:45 pm I had enough and decide to call Comcast to make sure someone was coming. I get a service rep who had a bad headset to which I could barely hear her or understand her.

    Finally get that cleared up, verify who I am, why I am calling only to be told the the actually time for someone to come was suppose to be between 8 am and 8 pm and that they had over an hour to get to us. That we needed to keep our phone line clear since the driver would need to call us and if due to a schedule change someone would call us. Guess what 8 pm came and went and no one showed up nor did they call to say the appointment was canceled. What is wrong with this company.

    I was so miffed that at 8:10 pm on March 30th I call Comcast again. Go through the whole song and dance again to verify who I am. Then I go through explaining what happened, why I am calling, only be told we have to go through a modem check. Are you serious, another modem check when the whole issue is a cut cable line. He said he could not make any new appointments until another modem check was done. My blood pressure is about to go through the roof. He then informs me the previous missed appointments were for just burying the cable not a repair and that they have up to fourteen days to come out and bury it.

    Now I am in stroke territory. He puts in the correct information "guess so, I can't see what he is typing" and tells me the next appointment they have is for Monday April 1st. I guess I will be their April Fool. He promised someone will be there on Monday, I wanted to say, "Don't make promises you can't keep." So far we have gotten an email with the appointment on it which is a first as the others never sent us an email confirming any appointment.

    I had contacted Comcast in regards to a payment extension and was told it was applied only to have my services suspended. 1st I was told on March 17th my past due balance was 42.61 and that I could have an extension until the 26th. I contacted Comcast on the 26th asking for an additional 3-day ext which was approved by a supervisor, but the following day my service was interrupted which I contacted Comcast again where an agent told me at 1st she didn't see that arrangement and then said yes she did and that services would be restored.

    I waited about 15-20 mins and still no service. I called and it was a recording saying I had arrangement set for 125.61 which was not what was discussed for payment and that there was an outage in my area and that it was being worked on. In the meantime I contacted Comcast again and spoke to another agent who said I would need to speak to collections. The rep gave me the number and it was a "not in service number." Again I called back explaining all that happened to another rep and then was told I would have to pay 142.36 to restore services. I told them that is not what was discussed and that they need to please check the recorded call. The agent said she reached out to the supervisor and agent that I spoke with previously for the 2nd extension and that the supervisor would reach out to me, but I have not heard back.

    I also have experienced issues with my voice service. You can call out, but not receive calls and twice I reported this and still not resolved. I also called to have my voice services disconnected and the rep tells me "I have to pay past due balance of 142.36" which I did already earlier in the day, although I did not agree or understand that balance. She said she could not process this I would have to contact them in 24 hrs to proceed with that. Plus we've had more than usual amount of outages over the past couple weeks with no service for at least a couple hours. I have been fairly satisfied with Comcast as my service up until now. The fact that I had to spend most of my morning trying to resolve this is ridiculous. I appreciate the opportunity to get extensions, but it should never be this frustrating or such a lack of documentation or communication between my file and the agents.

Comcast's wifi works much better than it use to. So far so good. I had CenturyLink before and they were pretty good. Not really the overall best either. Bill kept going up and up without notice.

    I was given a number from my prospective management company to call for about setting up internet. I was dismayed to discover it is was Comcast as I have had previous experience with them. I was also dismayed to learn that the management company and Comcast use a loophole in the FFC rule that prevents exclusivity between ISPs and Apartment management companies. Given all of these things, I checked prices online before calling the sales representative. When I explain I only wanted to internet, he tried to immediately to sell me cable and internet because "it meant the internet was cheaper." I asked how would paying more as a whole for something I did not want or use make my cost cheaper?

    After I expressed my frustration about being locked into using one company, he offered me a "discount." This "discount" matched the current internet only promo offer of $34.99 advertised on Comcast's website. When I asked him how much the rate will go up after the promotional period was over, he said "$20." The actual increase from Comcast's website: After promo, or if any service is canceled or downgraded, regular rates apply. Comcast's monthly service charge for Performance Internet is $74.95 (subject to change). That is a $40 increase, not a $20 increase. I simply told him, "No thank you" and hung up the phone after that.

    We called Comcast/Xfinity to transfer the internet service to the new address. They said because the house is new construction they have to verify address and update their system. Ok. I did a service availability search and their system told me the neighbor to the South currently has their service. It told me the neighbor to the North has availability and the neighbor across the street on the West has availability. They have to check and get back to me. 5 days later I call and am told they are still updating their system. The guy was super nice, he will try to expedite for me to give him 48 hours and call them back if I have not heard anything. I stressed we wanted the service for 5 days later and 5 days have already passed so it was getting close. 48 hours later still no update.

    I try to call and can't so I do an online chat. Rep couldn't tell me anything but that it still has to be updated in their system so I ask for supervisor. Supervisor tells me same thing. I ask exactly what does that mean and what are we waiting on and he doesn't know exactly. I ask if someone has to physically go out there or if they check their service CAD systems. He isn't sure but thinks they have to go out there. He has no access to my ticket number and doesn't know if anyone has been out there or anything. He tells me his recommendation is for me to go to the local store and ask them to see if they can tell me???

    I end chat with him after copying the content. My son does another chat and the rep he gets cannot give any updates but can at least provide the ticket number. I do a message to Executive Customer Care Comcast has and paste the content of the chat. Next day I get a call from my problem solver (hahahahahahaha). She tells me that she sees I am frustrated but they have to check service ability and update their system before anything can be scheduled. I am flipping out now because she is talking like I haven't been asking for this to happen. She is trying to explain it to me like I am an idiot. Then she is defense and saying this is issue just got to her and she is trying to fix it yada yada. I told her she may have just gotten it but I have been trying for a week. She keeps saying we have to start where we start and follow the process.

    I have to demand she check for my original request. She reluctantly does so and finds my ticket from 8 days ago. THEN tells me that it hadn't gone anywhere because they need some kind of address verification from either USPS or an electric bill. I am uh, ok, no one said this before and does it matter as the service is on 3 sides. If they are going to have to go out there anyway and verified service is next door via computer why is it necessary. The reason is it is protocol. I am not the brightest person but it is not hard to figure out that if service is available on 3 sides and green space on 4th side service should be processed without waiting for some other company verification of my address. Next I ask for another supervisor. She will pass it on and it will take 24-48 hours for them to get in contact with me??? You are getting the level of customer service here right?

    Ok, so my son gets on their Twitter and starts messaging with a rep. They explain that they need the address verification. He tells them we will not have an electric bill for like 45 days. We send them copy of email from electric company confirming service change to that address. We send them email from USPS that confirms our address change. We send them copy of the Certificate of Occupancy from the local jurisdiction of authority for construction (and 911 address assignment), we send them copy of NEW voter registration to new voting precinct based on new address that was mailed by the Supervisor of Elections to us at the new address and received in our new mailbox by the USPS.

    NONE of these are good enough to verify our address. So, moving day is tomorrow morning and we have no idea when we will get service because Comcast/Xfinity still doesn't know if our new address is serviceable. Son sent them a screenshot of electric account showing address, electric company logo, my name, and $0 balance. Not good enough.

    I just spoke to another person on the executive escalation team and she said that nothing we submitted is acceptable to the serviceability department and they will ONLY accept a utility bill because they need to be sure there is a meter there. Well if they went they would see the meter, the power is on, the AC is running. But they won't do that. They have to wait until my 1st bill is generated by the electric company and I get a copy to them then they can see about getting us service. I keep hearing, "Well this is the protocol." Or "This is the document we require." Or "We are working from now, not when you originally requested it." My thought it since I originally requested it 9 days ago and NOTHING has happened, they should flex what they normally do.

    I spoke with the chat team about setting up my internet. I specified that I have my own modem so I will not be needing to rent one. That person sent me my contract. I read it. $59.99 for 250 download speed for the first year, and no other charges besides a couple cents on tax. Great. I accept it. All that was left for me to do was pick up my set up kit from one of their locations. Not knowing what to expect from the set up kit, the cashier hands me the bag and I sign the receipt saying I picked up my FREE self-install kit.

    I thought it was odd they gave me a device but it looks nothing like any modem I've seen so I figured this device was needed for set up. I set up my internet with the device. It's slow. So I connect my own Netgear modem and it's great. Then I get my first bill and see that I'm charged an extra $10 for half month device rental. I call Xfinity and the lady said she would take it off. Apparently when I went to pick up my FREE self installation kit, the guy decided to add their odd looking modem to my account when I specifically told them I did not need a modem because I have my own. So this Xfinity rep lady sends me another contract, exactly like the first one, and once again I agree to it.

    A while later, I check my bill and it still has the extra $10 fee so I contact Xfinity again. This guy explains to me that I will have to pay the amount this month but the charge will be gone for the following months and they will credit me the extra amount. Great. Then he tells me, to "make it up" they would give me 30 days free trial for their tv streaming. At first I'm interested but then I quickly ask him if it will auto renew and charge me after those 30 days. Yes it will. He says I will have to call back in to get it taken off my account if I go through with it. At that point I'm just beyond pissed because he's playing it off as Xfinity "making it up" to me but really they're just trying to add things on to my bill. I just end my conversation with him. I did not add this free trial thing to my account. He tried calling me twice after that but I didn't answer.

I wasn't using the computer so much and the interruption was intermittent so I thought it was the browser Over a 2 1/2 yr period I tried other browsers, then thought it was the computer so I bought and returned two computers as the problem persisted. I swapped out modems a few times and moved the modem to different parts of the room but nothing helped. I called a few times for techs to check it out and said repeatedly to check the incoming cable but nothing was fixed.

    Finally on a weekend a business tech saw my appointment for that day and decided to take it himself as he noticed that similar problems were reported in the area. He nailed it right away, finding problems at the main feed and the underground cable leading into the duplex. While this fix was in progress I started to ask for a credit for the months of bad service I had put up with when no one would listen to me. Initially there was talk of a 4 mo credit although I wanted six, and once the work was done the attitude changed as I'm sure they saw that it was their fault all along and now they wanted to give me the kiss off.

    After weeks of haggling and repeating the story of poor service I was awarded a measly $100 credit and they were done with me. It should have been obvious that after the new underground cable was done and the other issues fixed that the internet speed and reliability improved greatly but by then I was fed up. I have switched to CenturyLink which is slower as I live in a low speed area but I am relieved to not have to pay the high price every month for so much stress.

I was was shocked. I'm a senior citizen, living on my Social Security check only, and simply couldn't afford to pay twice my normal rate.

After profusely thanking her for her honesty, I did some research, and discovered that Comcast is guilty of "Upselling," in other words, having their unethical agents make cold calls, scaring the heck out of their loyal customers, lying through their teeth, and trying to steal their money under totally false circumstances.

    Where to begin. I am yet another victim of Comcast's extremely deceptive business practices! I got Comcast internet for my apartment in DC in February 2015 on a non-contractual basis as a new customer. Every year, they increase the monthly rate ridiculously and I call back and ask if they can lower the price (or I will be forced to explore the competition's pricing) and they come back with the fact that they have a promotion going on and would lower the price. I ALWAYS make sure to ask if I can cancel at any time the answer to which has always been, yes. I also get cold calls from them all the time with promotional rates of this and that... So this has been going on for a while.

    So I called yesterday, 2/26/2019, to cancel my account as I am moving and low and behold, I am in a 2 year contract!!! This is something I would never have signed up for - I have been against any cable/internet/phone contracts as these are simply not beneficial to the customer and solely benefit the oligopoly companies. Additionally, the prices offered give no incentive to get yourself tied up in a contract when you can find just as good a rate or a better one easily from a competitor. I had over 2 hours of conversations with their customer service yesterday, talked to four people, and they basically gave me the run around with undertonings of rudeness.

    They are claiming that on Jan 5, 2018, I had a phone conversation with one of their agents. They hiked up the rate from the previous year right around that time so it is true that I called in early January of last year (I don't remember the date). At the time, I did the same things I had done in years past. I told the agent that Comcast has hiked up my rate from the previous year's $49 (mind you for basic internet) to $74 and that I do not want to pay that, do they have a better deal? The agent came back with a $49.99 promotional rate (again exactly like in the three years past since I have been with them where never once was I in a long-term contract).

    I am certain the agent never mentioned a 2-year contract. I do not have a recording of the conversation from Jan 5, 2018 but I most likely would have asked for whether or not the rate was for a contract!! Unless I was out of my mind that day, it makes no sense for me to sign up for a 2-year contract when Verizon or other providers would have offered the same deal for no contract - Comcast does not have a monopoly in DC. So, when I talked to the various agents and supervisors yesterday, they claimed that I agreed to a two-year contract via a link that they sent me via text where I checked marks agreeing with a 2-year contract. I asked to see a copy of it - NOPE, they can't provide that. They only save that for internal purposes.

    When I asked why, the response was "that's just how our system is set up". Then also told me that they sent me one confirmation email and a follow up email stating this on Jan 5 and 6 of 2018. I do not see how notification emails can constitute an agreement - those emails don't do anything for me. Where did I agree to the 2-year contract is the question. Even better, one of the agents from yesterday told me that the agent who talked to me in January 2018 didn't have to disclose the 2-year agreement via phone (what!! DECEPTIVE) and that all they can go off is the confirmation emails they sent me (to which I never replied and didn't even know I received at the time until yesterday).

    Also, the agent told me that the 2-year agreement is also listed on my bills. Where on the bills, you ask? On the last page in an obscure place where you would never scroll down to! Again DECEPTIVE. Again, I don't see how the fact that this was put on the bill continues to me agreeing to the contract. All I basically check on a monthly basis is the amount that I pay via the notification that I receive via email to which a supervisor I talked to replied "we are not responsible for you not checking your bill." (CONDESCENDING AND DECEPTIVE!)

    Of course, there are a bunch of Class Action lawsuits and settlements against Comcast out there for misleading customers - some of which have given me satisfaction as I searched the internet for them yesterday after the infuriating calls. And I cannot wait to add my name to that list. I will be taking up this matter with DC's attorney general and/or Consumer Regulatory Affairs. At a minimum, I think Comcast needs to present evidence of when/how I accepted the 2-year contract in January 2018 - the voice recording as well as my supposed acceptance via a link sent through text. I have zero recollection of this occurring.

    Additionally, is this really the correct way to treat your long-term customers? Isn't it better business practice to be courteous with your clients? Will I ever recommend Comcast to any colleague, friend, or family member? No. Will I use Comcast again? No - and I won't be forced to given the competition (even if limited) in the area that I live in. Beyond the deception, what makes me reel is the amount of time spent on the phones to get the same answers and how infuriating the underlying rudeness in agents' responses. And oh, a supervisor was supposed to give me a call back within the hour after I spent 45 minutes with the first agent & of course, they didn't call back - I had to call back and ask for a supervisor again.

    I was going to disconnect my service tomorrow Feb 23. I was replacing internet and cable from Xfinity. I had been a customer for four years and paid $224 per month and they could not give me a discount so I decided to leave. A week before I called to schedule service disconnection for Feb 23. Feb 22 my new internet service did not connect due to a line replacement and the neighbors dog was hindering the pole. So I decided to keep the Xfinity and called to tell them that I was gonna keep the internet so they would not disconnect me tomorrow.

    Well they disconnected my other services a day early and would not keep their end of the deal as their customer service agent had made a most and in order for me to get that day back I would have to sign a contract for two years. It was not my fault but they did not make good. I wanted to make sure the new cable company followed through. But to no avail. I had to talk to three agents and they all gave me incorrect information and the third wanted me to call back in two hours to get misinformation again. This service I was thinking of keeping I am now happy to get rid of. If this is how they treat good customers how do they treat bad ones.

    I would not recommend Xfinity to anyone and the supervisor was not wanting talk to me. When Brenda finally got on she did not make their mistake right and accused me of doing wrong when it clearly states in my file it was not to be disconnected till tomorrow and they could not make it right. So I will never be using their services and would not refer my worst enemy to them. DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICES AS YOUR MONEY IS NOT GREEN ENOUGH FOR THEM. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR CLIENTS.

It’s pretty bad when you can Google the company and there are literally websites made about how much people hate them. Google it, for real. There are entire websites, Facebooks, YouTube videos, etc expressing how it’s the most hated company in America. They didn’t charge $230 just to disconnect. We would not have the service anymore.

    I called the 800 number and spent 30 minutes trying to get to an actual customer service representative to help with my internet connection issues. My internet goes down every evening for about 15 minutes and then comes back. I called into customer service, and every time I tried to get to customer service for technical issues the automated system wouldn't let me through and would send a signal to my modem to reset it. I finally pushed a ton of buttons on my phone and was able to get through to customer service and when I did was told that I need to call when it happens and they can do more troubleshooting.

    When I asked her if the troubleshooting would be resetting the modem she said yes and I said, "We have already done that for a half hour through the automated system," she insisted that I had to call back. When I told her my frustrations about the automated system not letting me through and already did the resetting she kept apologizing for the inconvenience and when I told her I need her to look into the modem and pull up the files to see the connection issues, she stated she can't do that until the modem goes down again and I have to call back. When I persisted saying that the automated system wouldn't let me, she hung up on me.

    WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE ever! The sad thing is they are such a monopoly and no other provider for your area, they can treat you like crap and not care because if you want/need internet or TV they are your only option and they know it, with the amount of money they make you pay they should be helping everyone that calls.

    DO NOT USE THEM! Not only do they throttle (but claim they don't), their customer service is pathetic. Here is what happened to me in a nutshell: was on 3rd month of a 12 month internet contract with Xfinity in middle of current billing cycle which ran from 1/28-2/27 (date of review is 2/7). Called to cancel service starting at the end of the billing cycle on the 27th. Comcast was going to charge me the $69 for the internet through 2/27 and also charge me $80 for the cancellation clause ($10/month for remaining months of contract).

    I work from home and internet is business critical. As soon as I got off the phone, my internet went down. The prompts told me that in order to activate that I had to call customer service. Activate? I already am activated and have an account?! Called them back and after 45 mins of investigation and attempts to restart my service, the customer service agent (second one, NOT the first one who turned my service off) let me know the supervisor of the agent who had cancelled my service without my permission would have to call me back. The reason being every time she tried to reactivate my service, it was going to put me in another 12 month cycle and I would be charged ANOTHER cancellation fee if I cancelled. I pleaded with her that I needed a call back within the hour as this was BUSINESS STOPPING as I work from home and wifi is imperative.

    It is now 8 hours later and not a peep from them. I am using my work provided MiFi to get through the day and have a local internet company coming out tomorrow to install internet for me as again, this is business stopping. I am appalled that this is how they conduct business. They do not care about their customers. USE ANY OTHER COMPANY FOR INTERNET. Seriously!

    We have been Comcast customers for a year. We only had Wifi service, and paid about $40 a month. We decided to get cable to our 3 tvs. My husband called and ordered it, he wrote down all the details. We were told we would not be charged for the two extra cable boxes (when the guy came to install, we were and it was an extra $20 a month). We were told we'd get TCM and when we turned on the TV, it wasn't there.

    We called to rectify this and my husband was told it was his fault for not reading the email confirmation thoroughly enough! So we decided to cancel the whole thing. They said sure, and transferred him to the cancellation dept. He waited on hold for several minutes and then finally reached someone who said, "Sure we can put you back to the service you had, but it will be $80 a month now, not $40." This was the service we had just a few hours before! We asked to speak to a manager and were put on hold again, only to be told he was busy and would call us back when he was free. Somehow I don't expect we'll be getting that call. I've never seen anything so outrageous or corrupt. Buyer beware, this is bait and switch! Google Fiber can't get here soon enough.

    If I could give negative stars I would. Comcast/Xfinity is the most incompetent company I have ever dealt with in over 41 years alive. I recently moved my Xfinity cable and internet service from an apt to a house and I have had nothing but problems. The first 2 months of service at the apt were generally fine. The day I moved my equipment my internet would not connect. Comcast tried to force me into paying $70 for a tech to come out and troubleshoot the issue. They determined the issue was with their equipment and I still had to call them to get the $70 credited (I told them I was not paying it regardless). Then things worked fine for a couple days and all of a sudden our DVR started skipping, freezing up, and eventually we lost all access to DVR service.

    I called and got a message that there was a known issue and it would be fixed by 9 pm (2 hrs). FIVE days later it finally was fixed. Then unsolicited, a tech came out to the box near our house and turned off our internet... No notification from Xfinity and the tech didn't even talk to us when he was onsite. We called up Xfinity and they couldn't explain why our internet stopped working and were not willing to have a tech look at the issue until the next day. When a tech came out he said the internet was intentionally disconnected due to some kind of signal interference. He admitted that the first tech should have explained to us what was going on, but even the upper level Supervisor we spoke with couldn't explain the situation.

    If this wasn't enough, prior to this we spoke with Xfinity home services and the girl we spoke to gave us one name on the phone but then sent us an email from a different email address (different persons name), with a 3rd different name on the email signature. Same person with 3 different names... What? To make it worse this same person emailed us pricing for some equipment and then immediately said she couldn't honor that pricing. In addition, without approval from us, she changed our current plan, which reset our contract term.

    One other issue we had was when we scheduled a tech to come out to our house to evaluate some Xfinity services/equipment and they never showed up or called us to say they weren't coming. We have been at this location for 18 days and have had no service, or interrupted service, for at least half of that time. The customer service reps and Supervisors feed you BS answers and excuses on top of lies when you call them. Not a single person with this company is competent at their job and quite frankly I don't know how they even manage to be capable enough to breathe on their own.

    I have been a Comcast customer for their internet service for over 10 years and I always try to call about a month before my contract is expiring to check for new promotions. Unfortunately I have noticed a pattern over the last 4 or 5 years where they never have a promotion at the same rate I am currently at but always seem to have a faster speed offered for more money. I have continued to agree to pay the more money each time because there is no other option for internet in my area. This time I called I did not agree because the increase was above what I can afford. I am extremely frustrated that each year I call I seem to agree to pay more money, although I am getting a faster speed, but never seem to get the same price or the deal that I am looking for.

    It just seems really convenient that after all these years of service and loyalty all I keep getting from the phone calls is giving this company more money but never seem to find a middle ground. I expressed to the customer service representative that I would even be interested in a slower speed if I could find a price that was more affordable for me and of course there was no option other than the promotion he was trying to push. At this point I would almost rather not have internet service in my house then continue to keep increasing my bill every year I try to call and find something that is reasonable.

My service has been out for 3 days now and in spite of all the complaints and reported outages in my area they are just sending someone out tomorrow morning. But wait, upon the phone call with Comcast the customer service rep informed my wife that they have on record that our account have over 100 degradation's on file and when asked will they give us some type of reimbursement for this the rep replied no because we didn't call in sooner.

    So in plain terms we have been paying for 60 Mbps but they have on file that we haven't been getting anywhere near that and on top of that it's recorded that the service kept dropping. Here me and my wife are thinking it's the Fire Stick acting up again or something wrong with our TV wireless connection but it was actually Comcast poor internet. On top of that the amount we pay is not worth the amount of Mbps they give you. Worst part about it it's almost like they don't care because they know it's really no other internet service providers in my area where I can get internet only without cable.

    So they exploit me and everyone else in Baltimore City that don't have any other option. So even though they denied us reimbursement of some kind for them not holding up their end of the deal that whole time we were paying them they only offered us $4 off for the 3 days for it being outage and then when I logged on to my account they only giving me the $4 credit if I pay my bill in full which is not due until next month.

How difficult could it be to find and restore emails???

    Do not use this company for ANY service. If I could give negative stars I would. This is the worst company & customer service center that I have ever had to deal with. Holding for over an hour, having to call MULTIPLE times and STILL not getting any results. Xfinity double charged me, which was their computer error (or so they told me). It’s been almost 2 months and I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY CREDIT. They credited my bill $20 “for the inconvenience”. But now the customer service rep miraculously cannot find the notes of why I received that credit on my bill or the notes of the 5 times I have called about not receiving a credit for the double charge. Wow. Unfortunately Xfinity is the only provider in my area, otherwise I would have switched right away.

    I have been a loyal Comcast customer for decades. It is the only internet and TV service I've had, and up until recently I have always praised this company; but not any longer. When I sold my apartment house, we transferred the Comcast account to the new owner so as not to interrupt TV and WiFi service to tenants. Then I wanted to set up Comcast at my new address and continue to receive service- including important email to my comcast.net address. October 3rd the account was transferred to the new owner and my comcast.net account was no longer viable - anywhere. My account disappeared and emails ceased. A Comcast customer service rep tried to reestablish my account but spelled my name incorrectly and my new account with my misspelled name became my new and permanent user name and email address which meant I received no emails.

    Over the past 86 days, I have spent hundreds of hours on the phone, opening multiple tickets and being catapulted to numerous escalations with no success. I even tried appealing to folks behind the counter at the local Comcast store but this issue was beyond their zone of influence. Since October 3rd I have been consumed by this mess. This morning's phone call to Comcast started at 11 am. It is now 7:11 pm on December 27th. The problem has finally been rectified but not without serious trauma to my sanity. The Tier two rep offered $2 compensation for my trouble.

    We signed up with their internet service through an agent who promised there is no contract. However, within the last 2 weeks, our fee tripled without any notification. I called and was told that our contract (verbal agreement) was for the 24 months and now we need to pay a day-to-day fee. The customer service lady was extremely rude and loud and insisted that there is a verbal agreement which I have never seen and signed. Without willing to sign another agreement, she told me that I need to pay their day-to-day high price which is even not available on their website. I will strongly recommend NOT to use this company, plus their service has been interrupted lately.

    Prior to moving out of CO, I went to the Comcast store in Boulder to return equipment and close my account. I was told by the Comcast representative that I could keep my existing Comcast email address as long as I wanted because it was independent of having a Comcast account. That surprised me, but I continued using Comcast email for seventeen months after I moved to another state. In December, Comcast froze my email account, right after I'd made airline and housing reservations online (oh, and Christmas). Wait times for calls to customer service were over 40 minutes, as usual. Comcast service agent informed me "you're really lucky. You got free email all that time.”

    I explained I do not feel "lucky" for being given false information by Comcast and having the account frozen without notice. Think of all the other accounts linked to email - now I'm unable to log in to those accounts to make the necessary setting changes so I've lost access to those also. I was never allowed to speak with a supervisor despite repeated requests. I'm being sent a "letter of explanation". JUST AN EMAIL FROM COMCAST NOTIFYING ME THE ACCOUNT WOULD BE CLOSED - WITH A FEW DAYS NOTICE - would have been good customer service. As I've typed this review, every 10 seconds a error message blocks the typing because I'm still updating all the settings. The only good part about this fiasco, is that I am finally finished with Comcast.

    If I could give Comcast -12 stars, I would. I am constantly losing connection throughout the day, at least 3 or 4 times within the same hour. I know it's not just me cause all my friends who live local to me also have Comcast and report outages around the same time. I honestly have no idea what I pay these people for. And their technicians can never fix the problem. I pay for a specific internet speed, 50 Mbps, and I'm only getting about 21 at most. I've tried calling about it and they say, "there's nothing that can be done" because of where I live. I live in Miami, by the way, I'm not in the middle of nowhere. GARBAGE COMPANY. GARBAGE SERVICE.

I was told by Rick that Comcast terminated/canceled my service immediately as one of my tenants in multifamily house (3 units) called and started their service. Comcast did not call or email or text me about this termination of my internet service. My complaint is "Comcast should (at least) called me to inform about this termination of my service." & Comcast said I need to pay installation fee again if my service reconnect again.

    I have been a COMCAST customer since moving to Atlanta in 2010. I have never missed a payment nor been late on a payment. I switched to AT&T because COMCAST continued to oblige me on faster internet upgrades, charge me more money but never followed through with the speeds. Then, they "upgraded" me to a contract for 300Mbps. They did this while AT&T was pulling the 1G lines in my neighborhood. Didn't deliver the speeds once again, I called, explained the reason for switching and disputed the termination fee. We talked 3 times and they were evaluating it, gave me a ticket number and told me they would call me with findings. Then they hit my credit report without ever calling me.

    I am 41, have an 800+ credit score. No one has ever hit my credit report in over 20 years of history - for $128 dispute, that I thought was ongoing. All they had to do was live up to what they said and call me and I would gladly have paid the $128. A conservative estimate spent with Comcast over my time as a customer would be $15,000.

    Absolutely horrible customer service! Provide false information and nickel and dime customers any chance they get. Cable box they sent for at home setup did not work properly. Had to send out technicians three separate times to get the service working properly. THREE! I was told by multiple representatives that all fees for the repeat tech visits would be waived since this issue was no fault of mine, but either the result of faulty equipment and/or installation by their technicians. Of course after reviewing my statements they never did waive all of the fees and now refuse to adjust the account as promised. When I asked to review the phone calls they said this would not be possible. They would be reviewing them and handling the matter privately.

    Have been a customer of Comcast internet service for 10 years. Recently decide to move and upgrade the service. Called customer service and ordered the move/upgrade, and was told that I will get confirmation once the moving date is arranged. Waited for 3 days, nothing happened. Followed up with customer service, and was told the survey team has been sent to the site two days ago, but needs 5 business days to have results. So after another two business days, call the customer service again. Surprisingly, Comcast lost track of all the information about moving service/service upgrade.

    I was transferred between customer service, customer resolution Dept., Moving Dept. many times, and was told the new address is not serviceable. Very frustrated about the experience of being kicked around many Depts and repeatedly saying the same things to different agents from all over the world. Also Comcast did not notify their finding timely. What if I did not call them for a month? Feels like the entire Customer service is totally disorganized.

    Comcast has already been fined $2.3 million dollars for billing fraud and is still at it with their 1TB data caps. I have a secure internet connection where all traffic is monitored on my end. In 10 days Comcast claims I have used 366GB while my own meter shows 131GB. They use an outside company called Netforce to monitor the data usage and claim it is 94% accurate. I have had to call 3 times now on this issue and have been told that it was escalated to Netforce and if they don't find any wrongdoing then I'm responsible for their claimed data usage. The 1TB cap is pointless, it does not cost them any extra money to continue providing you internet and you're charged a premium for every 10GB of data used over that 1TB. It's amazing that gas and electricity utilities can accurately measure usage and Comcast can't but still expects to be able to bill you based on it.

    As an IT professional I’m aware that networking is expensive, but most of these systems you have are in place and data “usage” should have little to no effect especially considering how you throttle each customer in a given area during high load times (or your aging equipment simply can’t handle it). Either improve your infrastructure or pocket the money. I don’t have to tell you which Comcast is doing. In short: Thanks for 6 years of terrible service. Cannot wait for the opportunity to drop you.
