Comcast TV outage

[sukismom]

Here in Mallory no TV - can't get through to Comcast so outage must be extensive.

Comcast is working in Pinellas, as well as Internet and phone.

Looks like all of the stations that I tested that were out are back now. Although, 67 (TVLAND) is still having problems.

Yep, 53 is not working and I've been waiting all weekend for Home & Family. :(

Historic side - receiving broadcast channels up to #21 - gave up searching after #56. Not able to reach Comcast by phone either. Internet working well - limited network viewing on 'xfinity tv go'.

Xfinity website notice:
"We're working to make your experience even better.

"An update is currently underway and what you’re trying to access isn’t available right now. We’ll have everything back up and running in just a few hours, so please try back later. Thanks for your understanding as we work to make this the best customer experience possible."

I saw that notice. You would think that they would do the reloads at night so it would not affect the daytime viewers.

No doubt, Comcast has a plan to credit anyone who has experienced an outage. :1rotfl:

Comcast = Loser. Not the customers just the company. Never again. My son tells me what a great deal he has for TV, Internet, Phone. It's true for now but the reason its half the price of mine is because it only work's HALF THE TIME! He is a good guy but I could tell from whom he was born when his Comcast TV went out in the third quarter of the Super Bowl. He now has Direct for TV. Problem solved.

I didn't have a problem ?

By it working half the time. I've never had Comcast connection problems since I switched from Centurylink. Pretty broad statement you made, but for me, I'm completely happy with their service, internet speeds, etc.

Beautiful, my experience was similar to yours for several year's until we had a problem which I sat at home, Friday, day off from work, Saturday, missed day of overtime then the repairman who was a contractor not a Comcast company man showed on Sunday without the replacement receiver that had been through the troubleshooting bit that they ask you to go through. This was not the first time they disappointed us. I glad your service is going well. My broad statement was for my families and my experience not the entire Villages or anyone else. I hope your repair experience is much better than mine should you ever require it.

Those kind of repair horror stories take place with quite a few providers. I've dealt with that with Verizon, in Virginia, as well.

I wonder what people did with their time before the inventions of record players, radio, television and the internet? Must be they had too much time on their hands. Hmmmmmmmm

they tended to live until 45 to 50 (average U.S. life expectancy was 47 years in 1900) and then died
