Cable companies are by law considered to be a municipal utility just like the gas or electric company and are granted a monopoly by the regulating municipality whether it be county, city or township. Citizens of that municipality are free to bring service complaints to the attention of the municipality that issues the franchise which MUST be considered when the governing municipality re-issues their franchise. (every 5 years or so) If you have problems with ComCast then you should find out what governing entity controls the franchise and make SPECIFIC complaints to the proper department.
