Rest assured Comcast will adjust your bill to reflect the lack of contracted service provided. That is the broadcast TV fee and Sports broadcast fee will increase to cover their expense in getting this fixed. Maybe another dollar / month for the HD adapters that were originally provided free.

Oh my, what a bitter response to our beloved provider.

Well, less than 2 weeks ago an Xfinity crew came into several yards including ours, dug holes in order to lay new cable for upgraded service. They cut our cable to the house, didn't say a word, wound it up tightly and tossed it behind the utility box.
We were without service for part of 3 days. On the phone they said they would credit our acct. $80, with we thought high. They credited $20, which was less than they said, but ok by us. Now another crew digging has done more damage. Probably a Comcast crew, but who knows.
We haven't been very pleased with Xfinity recently.
BTW, still out at 6:50 pm.

No wonder no one seems to have cable on my street. I see dishes everywhere.

Actually, I can't recall having many problems/issues with Comcast/Xfinity in this area...for the last 7 years.

Especially compared to SECO of late.

And not having internet or television, is a whole lot better...than not having power or A/C.

This is simply a minor inconvenience...with an easy work-around.

That is good to know. Still trying to figure out what kind of service to get, Spectrum doesn’t seem to be available at Mallory.

Mine was out about 11 hours in Sanibel. I hope I get credit for it. For Comcast ro be out this long, it had to be something big.

Our service in Sabal Chase was restored about 7:14. TV and internet out for most of the day. Longest outage we've ever had. Just happened to be the day the President flies into Orlando. No service until after the evening news/local coverage is over. Hmmm.... interesting coincidence.

Finally - internet, TV and telephone are back on. Wow - what did "they" do in the "old days" without these services? DH and I didn't realize how addicted we truly are -- for him it's television, for me it's the internet. Time to reassess our lifestyle. LOL
