However, there are apparently people that are far more frustrated with Comcast. The country's largest cable provider lost 165,000 net cable subscribers in its latest quarter. This isn't some one-time quarterly fluke. Comcast has seen 443,000 more homes cancel than sign up so far this year, and that's after losing 757,000 accounts in 2010 after shedding 623,000 customers in 2009.
Tom, Thank you for posting this. That is interesting about Comcast shedding customers. I have Comcast for phone, TV and internet here in suburban Chicago - internet and TV since 2002, phone for 4 months. Can't say my service has been 100%, but no huge complaints with Comcast, not enough to switch. But at this rate of shedding customers, will Comcast be in business a few years from now? They spend tons of money advertising in the Chicago area -- maybe they are running scared?
