Ok... one of the top 10 rated worst Companies in the US ...for LACK of customer service, has almost pushed me over the edge.
Comcast...YOU SUCK! Your Service Reps SUCK! Your Modulators SUCK! Your Technical staff SUCK! Your Phone & Internet response system SUCKS! ....
Now, for the back story...
A month ago, I get a letter stating that Comcast will soon be sending ALL of their program channels via digital signals. (we currently have Analog for most channels and Digital for premium channels)
In order to continue with "uninterrupted" service, we (customers) will be sent new boxes to replace the existing boxes.
Following their directions, I installed and programmed each box. I then called the service number they listed, to "activate" these new boxes.
I gave the Service Rep the S/N's and she proceeded to authorize these boxes... but....the system could not "see" them.
Now...the Rep tells me that I'll have to wait four days for a Service Rep to visit...
What the hell? I told her that the problem is not on my end...it's in their system. Apparently, she's not very experienced with the Company, and she kept insisting that I had "installed" the boxes wrong.
After numerous calls to different departments, No one seems to know how to fix this glitch.
So..I then reinstalled the "old" boxes...but they wouldn't now work because the system identifiers had been changed.
Finally, after about two more hours on the phone, they got one of my Digital boxes working for one TV screen.
I would have given up much earlier...but, Hockey season is NOT over yet, and I can't get any of the games broadcast via air!
Rotten Comcast bastards! Done ranting!
