I have had good phone help from time to time but in general it is very hard to get good service. We just closed an account up North. I wrote a letter to them asking for the procedures. Still have not gotten an answer. Had one of my relatives take the equipment to their office and they had no problem at all. Quite a surprise. Now I have to see if they keep billing me and refund the future months payment.

Good luck!! We had Comcast on St. Augustine Beach and at our home in Michigan. Mom had nightmares with billing when we sold the St Augustine condo. For some reason, they kept getting the two accounts mixed up. It took many, many months to get it resolved. Mom was probably 89 at the time and she was pretty persistent. She finally got it resoved to her satisfaction.

We still have Comcast in Michigan. Not sure yet, what we will do in The Villages. (I'm not giving up that I can talk my now 91 year old mother into moving into our TV home!)

Comcast is well known for their very poor customer service. This fact has been written up in several publications. On TOTV there are several Threads that testify to Comcast's poor customer service. Recently I read where they were hiring more customer service representives as apparently this is starting to affect their bottom line.

That said, unfortunately, the competition is not much better. Everthing is great until you have a problem! You can say the same about most large companies. We recently had major issues with Whirlpool regarding the warranty on our new appliances. It's "tough" out there when you have a problem with your purchases today.

If you're looking to bring your bill down, however chat can't help. Call and ask for the retention department. Chat is a good way to connect easy for other issues, however. They did keep me on line chatting for over 45 minutes only to tell me they had no power to bring down my bill to call Retention.

I would send a letter to their Corporate Hdq's, return receipt required and tell them of the problem and advising them that any further bad billings will be considered harassment. Address it to the VP and CEO.

If you're on twitter, try direct message to @comcastcares.

Hate their automated phone menu, once I got through the rep just couldn't grasp I didn't have another address to go to since I was canceling my service due to a move. Told her I didn't have a tv to watch since it was in storage and then she wanted me to keep Internet so I could go online. Kept telling her I was leaving my house and wouldn't be there. They must have upsell drilled into them.

When I cancelled Comcast I was warned about their practice of continuing to bill. I turned in the remotes, and WiFi equipment and bought my own. When I said I wanted (at their store)to be sure the TV was cancelled they said they couldn't do it and that I had to call Comcast to cancel the TV.
That was the first sign that things could be bad. That is what prompted me to look up their Corporate Offices and send a letter telling them to shut off my TV, no longer charge me for the modem, etc (and attached proof that I returned them) and that I bought my own and I would continue to use their Internet and nothing else. I sent the letter registered and notarized with return receipt required and addressed it to the CEO and VP. I never had a problem after that. Just a suggestion.

Lucky! Before we bought we rented and our landlord had Comcast. In the three months we rented in 2014 we had several Comcast issues that were never resolved. The landlord struggled after we left and they finally disconnected and went satellite. In PA friends had issues all the time but they had no choices except satellite. In short, you are one of the lucky ones.
