the comcast death rattle

[chucklenut]

Props to you for being able to decipher the Tagalog they try to pass off as English. That's probably one of the main culprits of the ridiculous call times I always experienced with them. Once again, loud and proud...**** Comcast.

their furtive billing is impressive

but its not the worst i have seen. i think atlanta medical center takes the cake for the best "what in the **** are my charges?".

thats my job, i request medical and billing records all day, solely for the purpose of tallying charges and preparing subrogation

you have not visited hell until you try and get a clear answer from the social security benefits phone line on the behalf of a deaf client with a room temperature IQ

Personally have not had problems with comcast. Internet is always up, and fast, and the x1 box os an awesome dvr. I love that i can speak into the remote to find what I want.

I have had issues with their billing, and packages can be frustrating. Overall it has been a decent deal.

Sounds like accounting.

I hated that class with a passion. I couldn't imagine doing that kind of work for a living. God bless people who can-but I sure never could..... I just don't have the patience..... I remember trying to work through a balance sheet to locate an error and just being all "**** it-I don't care where the **** the $53 went." The math was not hard-but the details were impossible for me to remember "well, it's a debit here, but a credit here, but that depends on whether it is an SEC statement, or a tax issue for the state, or one for the feds, or an investor prospectus, or a recharacterization, or whatever" and by that time, I would be all "**** it-I don't give a ****..... I HATE accounting!"

My brain is definitely not wired that way-I would be the world's very worst accountant-ever!

I've been on their chat at least a half a dozen times in the past year with internet related issues. Each time I sign off with, "I can't wait until Google Fiber is available".

You can't get ATT gigapower yet? The infrastructure is there. 1 gig/sec. Google still a ways out.

Comcast was a great company to work for but I can see where some customers would have issue with their service.

Funny thing is most of the bad service is due to ingress from dumbass ****ing idiots adding their own lines into the systems in their homes. One cheap radio shack splitter can **** up a whole block/neighborhood.

That's BS man, ppl. have been doin that since the dam 80's....never had any problems what so ever till all the companies came out competing with each other.

Probably, but I ****ing hate AT&T. Just ran a test and getting 360.54 Mbps, so fine. I just hate giving money to comcast.
