Default Out with Comcasst! Finially

We decided to go with Century Link--Had enough of rude people when you call Comcast to see why they keep raising their rates--
Question does anyone know where the Comcast location is here in the Villages is so we can drop off their equipment?

I love Comcast, anytime I have to talk to a stupid person (everytime I call) I make them pay me $10.

We tried to return our equipment a the Comcast office on 27/441 near St John's Seafood. There was a line way out the door. We drove to the leasburg office. Much nicer and just a short wait with chairs to sit on.

It's up on 441 I believe it's the Publix Shopping Center past the Hospital. Bring your lunch. Good luck with Century Link If u thought Comcast was bad beware.

sorry for all of your troubles with Comcast and Century Link. Do yourself a favor and get Brighthouse. We are very pleased with them.. Very good customer service!

Try Brighthouse when you're done with CenturyLink. You'll be happier.

To the OP

I have never found a Comcast employee who was rude or disrespectful. quite the contrary I have found most very helpful and quick to respond.

In that same vein I can also say the same about Century Link. However we switched to Comcast because we found their products to be quality and offering us more.

Brighthouse is limited in TV. Remember however that Brighthouse is no longer TimeWarner. We had TimeWarner's (Road runner) up in Minnesota and it was an outstanding product.

I opine others can decide

Comcast - Leesburg
8130 Cr 44 Leg-a, Leesburg FL 34788
Phone Number352) 787-7875

I'd call for directions

We got rid of Comcast for our TV. Went with Dish
Use Vonage for phone
Still use Comcast for computer

The Leesburg office is near the airport and Babbette's furniture. Stay on 441 south and make a left on CR 44 Leg-a just before Babbette's. Office is on the left. From their parking lot you can look straight down the runway at the airport.

One tip. Web site says they are open on Monday's. They are not.

I went to the Leesburg store on Mon. they were closed. So I went back on Tues, there were 22 people in front of me. There were 3 employees. Another came back from break and a lady walked up to ask a question. Well, a man starts saying she is cutting in line. She went back to her seat and across the room they start screaming at each other (she was black and he was hispanic). They were cussing and calling each other names, finally I stood up and said I'll come back later. I was just returning a modem and wanted a receipt. So I thought I will just take my chance and drop it in the return box...they must not check it very regularly because it was so full the door wouldn't open...and it also had trash in it. So I went back in...looked at everyone and said I'm not cutting lines I just need to drop this off. The lady said just put it on the counter, so I hope I get credit. I have called 2 times and told them time and place that I dropped it. It was crazy in there.
