Comcast is incompetent beyond belief-This is the new Comcast

Prior to Thanksgiving Comcast badgered the bejesus out of us to get a new modem. Then our Internet started shutting down every few days.  I figured it was a sign from Comcast that I better get the modem or I would never have decent service again. Well, we got the new modem and our phone now works for shit.

We hooked up the new modem and then the phone quit ringing properly. Ya know when your phone rings and you get Brrriing. Well, now I get Br. The first 3 people we spoke with said this is not right and we need a service call. You know, the truck in the driveway that says Comcast on it in RED.

Well those suckers never showed up. After mulitple confirmations and no shows and reschedules and confimations and no shows, plus the fact they kept calling the phone that did not work properly, it went south. Yep, today when I called I got the infamous Indian of India people disguising themselves as Texans telling me all the white talking-people knew shit about Comcast and telephones and that my phones were broken.

Yes, for goodness sakes both the hard wired into the wall trimline phone from Alexander Graham's relative Ma Bell and the wireless phone with answering machine broke at exactly the same time. That was when we installed the new asshat modem from Comcast. This idiot from India is telling me to change the number of rings on the wall trimline phone, this is why I hate all people from Comcast.

So this week will be devoted to switching everything possible out of Comcast's hands. New security system so I do not need a land line, new TV service, and back to Ma Bell or whoever for phone if I need one and please let there be a new Internet in the Pointes. I swear someone here is getting graft for allowing Comcast this monopoly and that is why we get such crappy service.

This is the exact statement from the witch, "Well you pay for service and you get it, you can make calls and people can call you." I asked about the not ringing and therefore not knowing someone was calling and she said, not our problem. And pretty much as I don't use their voice mail (as it is another version of living in India hell) well, F off bitch.

The service is the same as ever-horrible to the Max. I remember one Christmas when a high level tech guy stood in my family room and screamed, No-don't do that. And we had no service for 2 more days.

Rat Fuckers are the best I can call them.

  1. I just sent a letter to TimeWarner on behest of some poor sod in the township who has no phone telling Time Warner to appear before the township trustees and explain the problem. Won't they laugh. Nothing anyone can do except keep swimming for shore.

    1. You are so right, it is a trap we made for ourselves.

  2. I say switch to using smoke signals, and use the telephony equipment for fuel. It may require some degree of pulverization in order to achieve some partial degree of combustion, but at least there should be some decent opacity to the smoke so as to make the signal visible for longer distances. Oh, be sure to use proper ventilation (i.e. Perform this outside)

  3. I have been very lucky so far with no problems with telephone or internet. I think I am an exception. WE did not get a home phone - even though we pay for one - because I don't see any need to provide an outlet for online marketers.

    1. We had to have it for the security system and cell phones did not work here for many years.
