greedy company with very poor customer service
In my opinion, comcast is a greedy company with very poor customer service. They do not care about how they treat you, they only care about taking your money. I was signed up with Comcast, and they were auto drafting the payments. Well I moved, so I cancelled my Comcast subscription. Instead of cancelling it like they told me they would, they charged me again and caused me to go into overdraft. Then when I called to get it refunded. They told me that since I was no longer a customer, that they could not give me my money back. They said that I would have to provide proof that they had caused me an NSF with my bank. I don't understand what this had to do with me getting my money back because I was no longer living at the old location, and did not use Comcast's services. I cancelled and should not have been charged. It resulted in them offering to mail me a check, but I have yet to receive one. I am continuing to battle with them over this. Never let Comcast or any other company autodraft monthly from your account if you plan on leaving that company in the next few months.

overpricing
It amazes me that with all of the technology and different ways to watch movies(Netflix, youtube in parts, Amazon's movies at dirt cheap prices, etc.)you think Comcast would lower their prices. Satellite is even cheaper. Why do they charge so much? It's ridiculous! Cable has gotten so stupid lately. Before, about 15, 20 years ago, you would have a line-up for a reasonable price($30). Now, There are like 900 channels! Who has time for 900 channels? They should make packages for people who like a handful of channels and drop the price drastically. I bet if they did that, they would have a lot more customers. Why hasn't anyone thought of that? Maybe I should start my own cable service. All they offer is a billion channels or nothing. I ditched Comcast and I hope others will too. Anyone considering starting service, save your money and rent!

unreliable cable internet service and awful cable t.v. service
Unreliable cable internet service and awful cable t.v. service. After they try to help and are successful with fixing the problem that week, they give a check back courtesy call to make sure the service is working properly. Do not answer them with a yes, because within three days the service will become disrupted again. (and it's not my equipment, that's been checked by them).Once you answer them with a yes, they have you documented or recorded as "all is working well" and when push comes to shove they can say "we called you and you said service was up and running. Plus it's too expensive! They charge alot of money for basically watching commercials on their t.v. service. I'm looking for other services now.

That is 100% correct! I have had the same experience!
125$ gift certificate
I signed up for Comcast 5 months back because they advertised a 125$ gift certificate at Amazon. I signed up alright but I have yet to receive the gift certificate. I did all the paperwork required, and still these guys don't even want to acknowledge that they should honor their part of the deal. Needless to say if you call Comcast they will straight up tell you that they did not advertise that and that it is not their department that did that had the promotions (may be it's some other department). By the way Comcast will give you this www.checkmyrebate.com to "help" you with your claim. I submitted the form to check my status and to my "surprise" there was no record found. Hmm...so I called them thinking that someone on the other end will answer after 25 minutes of being on the phone. You guessed it...nobody answered.
Do me a favor, signing up for Comcast is easy (they will install it for you in a day), now claiming your money is damn nearly impossible. Tens of phone calls, e-mails after emails and knowing that some ### or some fraudulent company is pocketing that money somehow is something that you will realize in the end.

My story is like so many that I have read.I ordered and got Comcast service. I thought the$2oo.00 amazon gift card would be a great benifit espically for Christmas, as I do use Amazon a lot. I sent the required forms and copies of Comcast bills and waited and waited. Christmas came and went and NO cards. I have been trying to find out about the cards through Comcast and they have been trying to help me. I do not blame Comcast, the fault goes to Amazon. I would like to know what else I can do as I could really use the cards even though Christmas is passed. You have my email address and phone # please let me know something. Thank you Vivian
comcast is ripping customers off by claiming not ro receive signed contracts in the mail
Comcast has found a great way to scam new customers. When you sign up for new service, they lock you in at a certain price (for 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, or 24 months). Your installation then takes place, your new equipment usually has some kinks in it, but eventually gets worked out. You receive a contract to sign, date, and return a week or so after the installation takes place. You sign, date, and mail the contract.
You receive no additional communication from Comcast, with the exception of a few phone calls promoting new ON DEMAND programming. 2 months later your bill increases considerably with no explanation.
You call to speak to at least 2 different incompetent Comcast operators before it is detected that "Comcast never received the contract and event sent out a reminder letter" (You never receive the reminder letter in the mail) The incompetent agent tells you there is nothing she can do and can't honor the original deal as outlined in the original contract that you signed, dated and returned to Comcast before the allotted time expired. You are a smart person...you saved a copy of the signed contract before you mailed it. You offer to fax the contract AGAIN since Comcast claims they never received it (probably because it's burried under a stack of paper work on some incompetent's desk in the contract department) You still can't find an agent to resolve your issue.
You become frustrated. You are a good customer who pays the bill on time each month and returned the contract. You are screwed over because Comcast does not really value customer service. You cancel your service with them, contact the Better Business Bureau, and sign up for DirecTV.
Morale to the story...if you are a new customer looking for cable service, go with DirecTV. They value their customers. If you are an exisiting Comcast customer, cancel and go with DirecTV. You also get more for your money.
With comcast you are not forced to take a contract unless you take the special add-on deals like a credit card or camcorder etc, simple - Don't do it... And if you are paying regular rates for a few months ( 6 or more ) they can rebundle your package to fit your needs or what could be available to you. Being in contracts forces you to stay with what your at or take higher and thats for ANY company like direct-tv, if you try to UNBUNDLE your package you will get hit with a terminaton fee of over $480 ( Direct-tv ) depending on the equipment you have.
As for the whole contract missing solution, Comcast now offers you the way to sign it electronically by email so it can be done in a heartbeat so nothing can be lost in the mail, you just have to supply them with your current email address when you sign up for service.
Direct-tv dropped the Versus channel and comcast has renewed versus and added over 100 HD channels at no additional cost to customers.
There are too many differences to list but I guess everyones experience with comcast is different.
I'm not discounting your experience with Comcast by any means, but DirecTV is the absolute WORST cable/satellite company in existence...ESPECIALLY when it comes to contracts. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE search these boards for DirecTV. I actually had to go as far as reporting to the Better Business Bureau, my state's Attorney General, AND file a small claims court case against DirecTV because of their "contract" practices. You will find some scary stuff regarding DirecTV on here and the BBB website.
requiring a new agreement be sign or they wont honor discounted packages
About two months ago, I received a written contract in the mail from comcast stating that I must sign and return within 30 days and that no alterations could be made to said agreement. This contract or agreement was to re-iterate the amount per month that you agreed upon when you signed up for the discounted packages.
Now when I signed up originally in july 2009, I was to get the digital starter package with on-demand and ppv for $29.99 per month for 12 months (1 year) , and if I agree to this 1 year committment, I would receive hbo free for one year which normally charges $15.99 per month. I also was given an hd dvr upgrade and instead of 15.95 per month I would receive it for $7.00 per month for one year, I also was told that one extra std dvr would be $6.99 per month and a dct (Digital converter box) would be free per month...
Now in order to get all of this I had to agree to a one year committment of the digital voice but instead of $34.95 per month it would be $14.99 per month.
The hs internet was at $19.99 per month for only 6 months and 3.00 modem lease fee in which after 6 months it would be $42.95 per month.
I was being charged all of this, however, had other charges which they had to credit back in other months, but it states right on all of the bills the agreed amounts as stated above.
Now the sad part is: the agreement they sent me states nothing about the hd dvr discounts, the phone discounts or the internet discounts, nor does it show the hbo being free. So now I am supposed to sign this form which I was told if I didnt sign it I wouldnt get the discounts as agreed in the beginning, but if I sign something that shows no discounts then they could start charging me the higher prices such as the monthly fee for hbo and the higher prices on everything else. The agreement says you can not alter it in any way... And guess what now that I would be signing this agreement the one year goes from when I sign it not retro back to when I originally got it so now they get you to commit to a longer period well all in all good for me if I get the discounts but if I move and have to cancel the service or if I just want to cancel the service then there is an early termination fee of the committment portion you don't use? This is just not right at all! So I get my new bill this month,
It is over double the amount I normally was charged... Since I didn't sign the agreement which was wrong anyway, they retro billed back to october 27th everything at the higher price. No discounted price on the cable no discount on the dvr or hddvr no free hbo all of which was written on my previous bills...
What am I supposed to do now? I have emailed them... As calling seems to do no good, as I told them that they needed to correct the agreement before I would sign it as it wasn't right and instead of them correcting it they just billed me the higher amounts...
This all seems like fraud or something is not right about it and why am I being bullied into signing an agreement as that is what they are forcing us to do.
It is like you have a 2 year agreement on a contract with a cell phone company and you upgrade your phone they make you sign another agreement. Or you don't get the phone... Well comcast is trying to do this with their cable services and it is just well lets say it is just unjust!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I also had an issue with comcast, They are a very unjust company and their contracts which they force you to sign should be illegal. I am moving so i cannot take with me my same contract, i HAVE to sign a new 2 year agreement or I will be billed early termination fees. All i am asking is to take my service with me, but they say they cannot do that. Bad company. I hope someone sues them, class action lawsuit.
I also changed my plan & was told that if i didn't sign their agreement the prices would go back up the original costs before discounts were applied.
they sent their "contract' to me twice. I never signed either one of them.
They have not raised the rate on my bill yet.
But now I need to downsize my monthly bills. (we are in the construction industry; need i say more?)
I called to kinda see what they would say a couple of weeks ago. I was told that we have a signed contract. I told him that we did not & I ended the call...nicely. There was no irruption.
But today I need to call and cancel all services but internet. And I am preparing for a battle. They want their cake and eat it too.
So, in doing research on line- searching out my obligations to them without a signed contract- I found your post.
I know I am not really helping you. But your story was the closet to mine that i have read.
Comcast's s attitude toward their existing customers is very frustrating! Uncooperative!
Good luck to you!
price fraud
In May 2009 I entered into contract to upgrade my services with Comcast. I was told I would receive cable, phone
service, and the highest available speed internet service for the price of $114.99 all inclusive (taxes, modem,
etc.). I confirmed the price & services with the Comcast representative at least SIX times to make SURE there was
no misunderstanding. I agreed to the offer as offered to me by the Comcast representative.
I have since been overcharged TWICE: the first time was an "error" of approx. $30-35. (which was later resolved).
My last bill was for $130.31, NOT the $114.99 I was REPEATEDLY promised. Calls to Comcast (AnnAmy?) to resolve
the matter were absolutely useless (she claimed the extra charges were for modem rental & taxes, NEITHER of which
were stated as 'extra charges' by the original representative when I accepted. I had been told each time I asked
that the 114.99 cost included EVERYTHING), and a promise of a call from the supervisor from that representative
never came. I went to the local Comcast office on tuesday, where, not only was it not resolved, but I was informed
I was not even getting the promised highest speed Internet EITHER.
On 9/14 I called the Comcast Escalation Department [[protected]) and spoke to David. I was essentially told,
'I'm sorry, but these are our packages & prices & there's nothing we can do". He suggested I "misunderstood"; I
find it difficult to accept that I "misunderstood" an offer I CONFIRMED 6 TIMES with their very own representative.
I am not being provided the agreed-upon contracted services, and am being overcharged even for the services I AM
receiving. The 'package' as described to me since by Comcast's subsequent representatives ('AnnAmyDavid') is one
I would NEVER have agreed to or accepted had it been offered to me at the time. Comcast & it's representatives are
practicing price-gouging & fraud, and I do not see why I should have to pay a bill that A) is in excess to what I
was told SIX TIMES & agreed to B) is not providing the promised offered & agreed-to contracted services.
All attempts to resolve this with Comcast have proven absolutely fruitless.
UPDATE: I received a call from Richard Spence, Executive SupportResearch Specialist, West Palm Beach Region,
Office of the Vice President [protected] approximately 2 weeks ago. After explaining my complaint with the
Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services against Comcast, he told me he would get back to me next week and
they would try to work something out to my satisfaction. No offer was made, and today I received a letter from the
DOA&CS claiming they had closed my case, following correspondence from Mr. Spence which consisted of false &
misleading information on his part.
So now we can add 'lying to a government agency' to the list of charges.
I should also add that, after speaking to a co-worker, he told me the same exact thing was done by Comcast to HIM (with the only difference being, HE was promised a price of $79, & charged the same as me. HIS charges actually DOUBLED!). He has since cancelled all business with Comcast. I wish I could do the same.
I have a great deal from Comcast. The price I pay is a good deal for Internet Only. However, business integrity and ethics are of issue. Like the person here, I was promised StreamPix and HBO w/ HBO2GO. My first bill was triple the agreement. I've been able to get that reduces but it is 12% higher than my original agreement (I have it in writing by the way) and they nixed my StreamPix and HBO2GO. I pay a bit more for a competitor now (gave Comcast the boot), but they only charge what they said they would.
i was told i qualify to get a gift card 200.00 and inm 4 months into my service and i have not recieceved anything but excuse after excuse im so fed up with this its un believeable no gift card but however they have a contarct for two years
can't get a hold of any live customer srvice rep.
I called comcast 1-800 number provided on their online customercentral and what a headache to try to talk to someone. Anyone, please. I give up after an hour of trying and waiting, waiting, and waiting for nothing!
Well, first comcast makes you listen to their zillion advertisements first when you call them. I thought I called "customer service", not "ad service". After you listen to the long winded comcast advertisements, then they want you to jump through all the hoops and listen to more comcast ads...
Ok, I followed all questions and orders-where is the *&^% live customer service representative. Well at the end of the comcast customer service auto system over the phone, one last question to screw you over... "for your convenience (The customer) , we (Comcast) will call you back... Don't worry you won't get screwed after you have been waiting over an hour". Then comcast auto system states "i'm sorry you don't want a call back (Fyi: you have no choice but to choose a call back) , comcast will have to end this call. Did I just hear the machine just laugh at me for waiting for no reason?
What the hell was that... My time was waiting for nothing. Comcast does not have a live customer service representative. Wow, new age of customer service trying to get rid of their customers! Good business model, don't provide customer service and we can save cost.
I guess there is no "live" customer service representative to talk to over the phone. Nope, it's not a holiday. Yes, it's within business hours. Can I get some help with comcast's online payment that does not work (Fyi-no like I have made a zillion payments before) ! Anyone home at comcast corporate world? Customer service? To end this conclusion: comcast = sucks in customer service. Go with some other company. I'm tired of dead beat corporate world slogan... "save the trees"... Right.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
How do you get ahold of someone! I have been on hold for an hour Because COMCAST rescheduled my APPOINTMENT after I take the DAY off.
mal servicio
Estimados lectores si me eh decidido a escribir esta queja, no crean que es solo por querer poner mis dedos sobre el teclado de mi PC, es que soy cliente por algun tiempo de esta empresa llamada comcast y cuando decidi utilizar sus servicios, fue solo buscando la larga distancia, para poder comunicarme con mis seres queridos que habia dejado en mi pais de origen, pues les cuento que mis encuentros con ese aparato llamado telefono, an sido frustrantes ya que cada ves que intento llamar, supuestamente las lineas deben estar ocupadas porque me es muy pero muy dificil poder concluir con mi llamada si es quela logro, que pasa senores tendremos que seguir soportando los malos sevicios que nos ofresen estas grandes companias que lo que estan hasiendo es enrriquesiendole los bolsillos algunos, pues yo me retiro de dicho servicio, quisiera que esto sirbiera de algo y no alla gastado de mi sueno en balde

unauthorized charges (pay per view)
I opened my Comcast bill rec'd today, 10/19/09 date on bill. I saw the total amount owing of 635.38 for two months. I was shocked. There are 14 porno movies charged on this bill. The dates are Sun 9/27, from 6:30am to 2:30 pm, Mon, 9/28 8pm to 10pm, Tues 9/29 6am, Wed, 9/30 12pm, Thurs, 10/4 6amto 1:49pm. I immediately called customer service, complaining that I did not order these movies. I am a single 45yr old mother with a 12 yr old son. I do not have a husband or a boyfriend and no other males in my household. My 12 yr old does not even know what pornos are. Many of the orders were during the week when I was at work (M-F 8-5) and my son was at school. I asked if there was any way somebody was getting into my cable from a remote location, they stated that is impossible. I asked because I live in an apt. complex, they stated the movies were ordered from my home, all of them off of my DVR in my living rm. I live in a 2 bdr apt and there is no way these would have been ordered in my presence. The charges on Sunday, 9/27 had to have been done in my presence and they were not. I watch football all day on Sundays, my son was not at home that day, he was at a friend's home. I told them this and that nobody was at home during the daytime hours that week and they insisted again that it came from my home. Of course, images of some pervert breaking into my home and ordering pornos while we were gone came to mind, they stated again there was no other way any breach on their end happened. I have found information that there are illegal black boxes that are sold and all the criminals need to do is look up codes on a website and they can then get into someone's cable, including ordering pay per view. Comcast is not taking my complaint seriously, I am afraid now that someone is breaking into my home while we are not here because they refuse to acknowledge that it could be any sort of illegal activity. I heard a story from one rep at Comcast (my 2nd or 3rd call) that there was only one other similiar complaint he had personal knowledge of and that was when he states the husband admitted to ordering the porn movies. I insisted over and over again that there is no male in my household other than my 12 yr old son, I felt as if they were implying silently that perhaps my 12 yr old 7th grader was ordering the porn without my knowledge, in my small 2 bdr apt. There were also some charges on my 9/19 bill from 8/22, four movies. I did not pay attention to my 9/19 bill or I would have complained earlier. They stated there was no way they could remove the charges, insisting they were mine. They did tell me how to put a block on the pay per view, which I did. I asked to speak to a supervisor, they stated there was no supervisor present. I asked for a phone # to file a complaint, they stated there is no number for this but I can fax verification of where I and my son were during some of the charges (work and school) and I could also include a complaint with the faxed information and I could write to the "executive" customer care in Fife, Wa. So, I have to jump through all sorts of hoops to get them to investigate this. I have called the Sheriff today and left a vm for his assistant to contact me. I would appreciate an investigation to determine if I have a pervert in my home or if it is on Comcast. I want these charges removed, I refuse to pay for someone else's filth. I would appreciate if Comcast would take this seriously and not imply that it was my12 yr old son or that I am being dishonest. I know, through internet searches, that Comcast is aware of the illegal activity in regards to stolen cable and unauthorized charges, but they are not about to take any accountability for this, instead they make their faithful, long term customers feel as if they are at fault. Please review this as quickly as possible. Thank you for your time.

Maybe we should get together and start a class action suite against Comcast.
Comcast charged us erroneously for Meeting Beetles on October 27, 2020 and again on October 28, 2020, 10. pm. Each charge was for $14.99. Then we were charged $74.99 on October 31, 2002 8 pm for SD Boxing. My wife and I are over 70 years old and we don't watch any of these shows. In fact, during our 20 years with Comcast we never watched any pay-per-view programs. Comcast refused to refund us for SD Boxing which we supposedly watched on Halloween night while we were actually at the door giving candies to children.
Comcast is a disgrace when it comes to customer service.
i just got off the phone with comcast you know they had good comercials it is for sure that they paid those people for there testimonys they have the worst custimer service and every thing when you are trying to explain to them they interup you when you ask for a superviser they say that he wont come to the phone what kind of service is that no one sould ever use them it is not right they treat people like that
They stated that you DO Not have to do anything when they change over on June 12th to digital. Wrong! you will lose lots of station that you are paying for unless you get a digital box.
Cost $99.00 for delivery of box and instalation
Cost &35.00 if you have the box and they install it.

Comcast cable really put it to me on billing me AFTER I requested disconnection.Also billed me for unreturned modems that I DID return. They sent me to a very rude collection agent. They still claim more owed then I really do. Companies get too big and don't care.
Ordered HD Cable, High speed Int. and telephone service. $125.00 was promised in rebates. No confirmation number was ever received. No traceability as to who sold service. Just a big runaround. Comcast is not truthful. They mislead their customers and have no regard for their interests.
Rich Ellingham
I have contacted Comcast 'customer service' 4 times via telephone and once through their on-line chat system to solve this billing issue with no success. My family was without cable/internet services for 15 days following Hurricane Ike. To this date, Comcast has credited our account for approximately 4 days and Comcast is refusing further credit.
Comcast cable received and cashed my on line payment. I verified the transaction with Chase bank .Repeated calls to Comcast, result in big runarounds.This amounts to theft !
Why on gods green earth do these service techs have to come work on someones line at 4 am. I could understand if it was a busy road in the burough, but on my street there is nothing moving til 6 am and then all of the people work so why not mid morning or something.
My billing since signing with Comcast has not been as stated when I first signed up for their triple play.
refuses to cancel auto-payments
About 2 yrs ago I signed up for comcast auto payment option and now that I no longer wish to have that service I have contacted comcast customer "diservice" several times to request said cancellation but they are giving me the hardest time with a bunch of non-sense crap! (Like: I do not own the account when there is no one but me the subscriber) a lot of running around and misleading strategies, they responded sending me links to cancel auto payments online that are completly useless... I've told them I want to pay my monthly bills by check (Just as I used to). I do not wish any body digging into my checking account any more!
And so, if you have the auto payments option be aware!
Comcast engages in deceptive business practices when long time customers like myself need to try a change or cancellation of their services.
UPDATE; Today I finally was able to find out why comcast would not provide help, they are very desorganized, every time i had a different representative contradicting each other about my needs... I was able to finally cancel automatic payments in my account... but i wound up having to do all the work by myself since customer service was not willing to help at all!
* It is always wise to get a receipt for the return of their equipment... that is coming up next!
phanton debt / scam
In signed up for Comcast in November 27 of 2008. I ordered extended cable and phone. In late May of 2009 my cable and phone was disconnected from a Comcast employee who mistaken the wrong address. They were suppose to disconnected another person service and instead they left me without a phone and cable for 24 hours.
This person didn't even live in my apartment or closed by in the neighborhood. I called Comcast and they refused to connect my service that very day. Later they said that person lived with me at one time and just moved out in May of 2009. This person doesn't even exist on my lease. I explained this to the representative and she refused to credit me for their mistake. In June they charged me a connection fee for this Comcast's employees mistake of the wrong address.
In April there were numerous billing errors such as pay per view and phone charges that were never authorized in my name.
In May I cancelled pay per view movies where you could only order by phone. No one is left in my home where they can order movies without my permission.
In May I order basic 2 cable for $39.99 a month plus Showtime for $5.00 a month. My promotion was going to end in June from $29.99 a month to $54.00 a month. Comcast is the biggest liar when it comes to promotions. In June I was being charged full price for standard basic 2 cable at $74.00 plus my phone $19.99 a month. In July my bill was $182.00 for one month service. My bill for June was suppose to $84.00 a month.
The Comcast customer service representative told me that they charge one month in advance for payment. Then they changed their story and said that I owed them for $50 for pay per view movies and 411 calls. In May they charged me $154.00 when my bill was only $95.00 and that included with pay per view movies, 411 calls and surcharges and sales tax.
On the billing statement on paper they credited me but when you do the math they never reimburse me for the money that was over charged toward my account. Comcast billing statments are meant confused people in thinking that the billing error corrected when in truth they are being scam.
In August I finally got a hold of someone from the billing department. I been trying to reach someone back in May about Comcast's billing errors. In August the representative from escualtions told me that I owed a debt back in 2004 for $274.00 on my account. That is the reason why $274.00 was added to my account. This was after I filed a complaint in August with the Better Business Bureau. I checked my credit report in August 2009 and no bad mark showed up on the report. The Comcast representative goes on to tell me that someone's stoled my idenity and that I need xyz to clear my name.
There was never a judgement or bad mark from Comcast saying that I owed them $274.00 or any other amount. The next day I filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commision. I called them up about a phantom Comcast debt. I have called Comcast so many time to validate the debt. I even wrote letters and not one Comcast employee could expalin for them overcharging me on the account. They would never explain why the 6 year old debt was never on my credit report.
In addition, they refused to take me to court because they know they would be caught with fraud. I filed a police report against Comast for fraud and idenity theft. The police officer told me it sound like a scam!
The sad part is that Comcast is a monoploy so they can do whatever they please. Please call the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Bureau to file complaint against Comcast and maybe we could push them out of business.

I hate Comcast! They screwed my bill up 3 times in the last 12 mo. Every time I have had to call them to get the over charges corrected.
Most recently I changed my service. My new bill was supposed to be $90. Instead I get one for $165! I was never told when I called to change my service that I would be charged any fee for changing my service, yet my new bill has a $75 "Early Termination Fee"
What a bunch of BS! Thank God I do not have my payments set to be automatically withdrawn from my account. This is how they scam people it seems. They tell you one thing, then they bill you more then they tell you they will. Comcast hopes that you sign up for auto pay and that you are rich enough to not pay attention or that you don't care about extra $$$ being taken from your accounts.
I paid my bill (minus the $75) but it will be a cold day in hell before they get that $75 from me. I can't wait for my contract to expire with them.
I have not not had cable since I was a kid, but honestly I am thinking of going without for the first time in almost 20 years. That is how frustrated I am with them.
Comcast=Rip off
highway robbery
They are constantly and consistently adding "hidden charges" to my account. I make a call 2-3 times per month to check my current bill and see how this matter may be resolved and not repeated the next month. Repeatedly they tell me that on the next bill my account will be re-adjusted with credits. They now claim I owe $500.
My bill normally runs about $160-180 for cable and phone. It actually should be $114-120 with taxes. "This is highway robbery."

rip off company
I called Comcast Cable today to report that most of my channels either do not work, or have lines going through them. I called and spoke with "Mary" in customer service who ran me around about ten minutes hooking, and unplugging, my cable, TV, and vcr areas. I explained to "Mary" that I have been having issues with my cable since the power outage that we had in Olathe earlier this year. Mary was very rude, and I asked for a emergency appointment, explaining I can only watch my basic channels and for paying around 80.00 a month it's ridiculous for me to continue not being able to watch the channels that I want. Mary did not originally want me to make an appointment, she continually told me to plug, and unplug the cable areas. After telling her that I am not a cable person and it still wasn't working Mary suggested an appointment next Wednesday.
I told Mary that was unacceptable because I can not watch TV and it wasn't only one or two channels out but most of my cable. Mary then stated to me that it was acceptable to make me wait that long for a repair person over the holidays. I stated that I work in customer service and I know they have emergency repair people, she refused to set me up with an appointment, I then asked for the corporate address to file a complaint, which she did not give to me. I then disconnected the call.
I have no appointment, only marginal cable channels and have to pay the 80.00 per month. I'm being completely ripped off by Comcast cable.

I signed up for Comcast in March of 2016. My bill was for 147.06 Supposed to br good for 1 yr. Next thing in June my bill is 161.00 dollars They tell me it is because of other fees. Your bundle did not go up but other fees did. This company should be looked at by the government and should be fined for running a dishonest business. They tell me they did not break the contract and if you drop them you still have to pay.

Wow--You described my problem to a tee--which
according to the lovely Comcast Customer Service
people doesn't exist and I am irrational because
I want a refund for the week of HD and Internet
we have not gotten benefit of. My husband made 8
calls to different Service Reps to try to get help
and they all gave him a run around that left him
ready to dump Comcast and try something better.
Every Rep refused to get a Supervisor and basically
treated him like he was loony. Finally one Rep said
the Supervisor would call him back because he was
out of minutes. They never bothered to call. Is
anyone else ready to contact State of Florida
Regulatory Commission--this is ridiculous and
extremely irritating! They sure would kick if we
treated them like this about paying our bill.
The digital services we paid premium price for are
out all day long, then after dark they come back on.
My husband wanted HD so he could watch Nascar races
and so far this month the HD has been out for every
race. We have a pay as you go phone and are almost
out of minutes because of the 300 minutes we wasted
talking to Comcast. But worse we feel disrespected
and badly used by Comcast.
Obviously they are having problems with their
service and are not forthcoming enough to be
honest about it. My zip code is 32401 Springfield,
Fl (by the 6th Street Burger King and the Boot Store).
Thanks for hearing my complaint, it's for sure
Comcast doesn't care to.

Also we are sooooooo tired of being told to unplug

just more run around to convince You the problem is
not with the Company. We have called many days in
a row, because our Internet was out, and even
returned our HD box for a new box that didn't work
either. Obviously because the problem is with
Comcast Network and NOT our equipment!

billing practices
I have been a Comcast customer for 11 years since moving to Maryland. There have been so many issues over that time that they're too numerous to list here. Billing errors, pricing changes, and dishonest customer service reps that I will be changing my service next week when I can get everything lined up.
I have been paying my bill electronically for the past several years using my checking account to automatically pay the bill on a specified date. The amount has been the same for some time now, but in the past two months they have mysteriously started to revert to some non-discounted pricing plan. Overall it increased my monthly bill by $50 for both cable and internet. Now I have tried repeatedly to speak to someone about the differences in the statements, without luck. Mostly I receive a "Pay the Bill!" from the rep and it would be looked at after receipt of payment. This means they want my money without providing services required by law. Comcast continues to robocall me the past week while I have been trying to fix the errors. Again "Pay the Bill, then we can talk!" These people are no better then debt collectors working on phantom accounts, hoping to scare people into paying and then work out some resolution later. Criminals is what they are, nothing better. And the local county officials don't return phone calls either! If you live in Anne Arundel County beware, they are useless.
Looking forward to switching to FIOS!

Well of course like everyone else Concast business model and practices border on extortion. For 2 years as part of my bundle my bill was quoted as approx $185.00 per month. Mind you i dont have anything extravagant.
1 TV with a HD Box. 1 TV with a HD DVR and our Bedroom TV with just a basic digital adapter on it. Standard Internet and Phone service as well. I just had HBO prior to this NEW 2 year bundle. Somehow i got this Premier
bundle without my knowledge. No biggy i'll take it. Now as of Feb 8th i was told my 2 year contract was up. So i get the bill and its now $233.00. And to top it off as of March first i'll be billed another $9.95 for
a "HD Technology Fee"...WTF is that?...Plus some of the other services are going up as well. So i figure my bill is now going to be around $250.00 or more. I dont know about you but thats a little ridiculous.
So i call of CS and see if i can get reduced somehow or moved into another lesser bundle. I dont want or need any of the pay changes. Basically was told i cant. I said but i just want HBO. Was basically told its an
all or nothing package, you cant really select the pay channels you want any more. She did suggest that i remove the $3.19 fee for Home wiring protection plan that i took...OoooooOOOOOOOooooooo. Yeah that'll help.
So in the meantime i have FIOS comming out on March 4th for install and kicking ComCrap to the curb once and for all. Of course once i return the equipment and cancel service they will be up all in my butt trying to
get me to rejoin with awesome incentives...Bite me!...I signed up with FIOS for a 2 year contract with pretty much the same Comcast package. 1 Multiroom DVR(better than Comcast), 1 HD box and 1 basic
adapter., phone and internet. Not only did they speak English and appear to be from the USA but she was very helpful. Mind you i realize they were putting on there best face to get my service and that might
change once im a customer but none the less it was refreshing. So for all that i am now paying about $155.00 for the first year. Approx $179.00 for the 13th to 18th month due to some promotions ending and then for
the last 6 months about $195.00. To me thats ridiculous savings!.Plus i get a $100.00 Visa gift card!...And i can add and subtract services without fees too unlike Comcast...You know i didnt want to change over.
I now have to redo everyone who has my Comcast email address. But its a smaill price to pay now. Comcast has just gotten ridiculous. I remember working for a small cable company about 20 years ago. Basic cable was
about 20 bucks and if you had all of the pay channels(HBO, Cinemax, Disney and Showtime) your bill was about 60 bucks if that...WOW, times have changed...Come on March 4rth!...Buh Bye Comcrap!
I hate Comcast! They screwed my bill up 3 times in the last 12 mo. Most recently I changed my service. My new bill was supposed to be $90. Instead I get one for $165! I was never told when I called to change my service that I would be charged any fee for changing my service, yet my new bill has a $75 "Early Termination Fee"
What a bunch of BS! Thank God I do not have my payments set to be automatically withdrawn from my account.
I paid my bill (minus the $75) but it will be a cold day in hell before they get that $75 from me. I can't wait for my contract to expire with them.
I have not not had cable since I was a kid, but honestly I am thinking of going without for the first time in almost 20 years. That is how frustrated I am with them.
Comcast=Rip off
unacceptable behavior
On Jan 23, 09 I terminated my cable and internet service with Comcast. This was two days before my monthly closing date for billing. I personally returned the internet modem, two converter boxes and two remote controls. I inquired about paying the final bill and was told it would be mailed to me shortly. On Jan 30, 09 I received a large bill from comcast, I looked it over carefully and noticed that I had been double charged for a pay for view movie. I called Comcast to get the error corrected and was told not to pay that bill because the final bill had not been reconciled and I still had credit coming for the equipment I returned. On Feb 9, 09 I received what I thought was the final bill, very nasty with large fonts saying disconnection notice, past-due - please pay, due immediately. I called to complain about receiving such a rude statement and was told that I would still owe a collection fee of $25.00 and past due fee of $7.00. All of this just 16 days after I terminated my service to switch to Att. I did everything the right way, I have been with this company and their previous owner, Time warner for over 20 years and never once a late payment. This kind of behavior is unacceptable.

no proof of unpaid bill
I disconnected my cable via calling comcast. The customer service rep told me all was good and that I would have a small credit. I never received a credit or final bill. Months later I recieved a notice from CPA informing me of a $179 bill from comcast. I immediately called comcast and explained the conversation between me and the customer service rep who assisted me with the disconnection. I was informed that what i was told was incorrect and that i owed $179. i asked for a copy of the final bill, which i never recieved, so i can reveiw the account myself. i never recieved a copy of the bill but kept recieving notices from CPA, which i ignored because no one had proven to me that i owed anything. Needless to say, I paid the bill to CPA without getting proof of my debt from comcast. I did not want anything to be reported on my credit. This is sneaky and borderline unethical. I ived in my home for 12years and recieved all other bills from Comcast. Its funny how I was told that I had a credit, then told that was incorrect and never recieved a final bill even after i asked for one via customer rep. Oh, also my access to the online bill pay was disc so i could not view the final bill online. Im with verizon now and will not recommend comcast to anyone.

you should see this mess and they charged me to fix it!
I had several in home changes where I added to seperate phone services and I also have comcast tv. After several visits the technicians got everyting installed and then one day soon afterwards my phone stopped working. I looked behind my tv, where they had the cabling installed, and couldn't believe the mess I saw. I immediately called comcast to have a re-do. I wanted professional installation. What I found was about 20 pounds of spaghetti cabling behind my tv. They sent someone out to redo the cabling and cheged me! I had to pay $39.99 to have them clean up their own mess!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
stupid and unprofessional workers
I am too mad to give full details but I ordered wireless service and the comcast guy took four hours and STILL didn't connect correctly. He promised to come back with someone who knew what they were doing...three days later he showed up by his self...trying to fix my computer...he'd erased my D: drive! Yeah! He spazed and sent me to have it fixed so no one at comcast would know! I didn't let anyone fix it cause it will loose all my data so now I have to by a external hard drive!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
misrepresenting tv station and always changing things around with out contacting costomers.
I signed up for Comcast back in July 2007 for a basic cable package.I was excited cause I had all the channels I wanted. Then shortly after I received them they cut half my channels out with out informing they were changing over to digital. I had to pay the same price for the channels I was now not receiving. Then I leave to go out of the country so I discontinue my service.I come home and ask Comcast if we can reconnect my cable service. I ask them if I will receive Cnn and Fox News with the basic cable service and they tell me oh yeah you will receive even more channels so I am like great sign me up!The comcast service rep tells me i have to be home between 12:00Pm and 4:00Pm because that is when the guy is going to hook up my service. So I wait and I wait and I wait, finally I call Comcast where is the guy who is to come hook up my cable? She tells me there was no connection with my account. I am like what! I tell her I called the week before and asked for them to hook up my cable, and they told I had to be home between the hours of 12:00Pm and 4:00pm.She tells me I do not need to be home when they hook up my cable and that she would try and get someone out to hook up my cable. They hook up my cable finally, and I get all the channels I wanted like they said. I leave the next day to go out of town for a week and a half, I come home and half my cable channels are gone! I am like ugh! I call Comcast asking them what the heck is going on? They tell me oh with basic cable you only get 32 channels. I hit the roof going what! I told them that I talked to the costumer service person and they told me I would get these certain channels with basic cable.The service person said no, you do not get those channels. I said I want my service shut off I no longer want to deal with your service. They told me I still have to pay $37.29, I was like what I was not the one who made the mistake here. I then called customer service again this Am to talk to a supervisor. I shared with the supervisor the complaint I had with Comcast that i shared with the other customer service person and felt I should not have to pay for their mistakes. The Supervisor told me, oh that Comcast messed up and gave people several people more channels then they should have not gotten now, as if that was going to make me feel better. I told him they need to honor their customers because they are the one who made the mistake not us and that we should not have to pay for their mistakes. He told me I still have to pay the $37.29, he told me i can file a complaint with Comcast if I wanted to. Like that they were really going to do anything about it. I did not think asking not to pay the bill was a big asking price for all I have gone through with Comcast.
I am very disappointed in Comcast, and I will tell those whom consider Comcast for their cable that they are making a huge mistake and to please not make the same one I did by signing up with them.I filed a report with consumers affairs and hope to see some justice done for the customers that have had issues as well.
Thanks Jeanie

Jeanie,
I have gone through the exact same thing. I had Basic for 5 years. Then Monday night half my channels are gone! Here's what I found out...I had what I thought was "Basic" which was actually "Standard". They disconnected my Standard in order to move me up to "Digital Starter" for $40.00 more a month. The Standard package was discontinued without notice. Highly deceptive! There are many violations of the Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
I now have an odd mix of channels from Basic AND some other package. (Mysterious).
I don't stand for this kinda stuff. My next action is to write the Colorado District manager of Comcast and the CEO of Comcast. I will let them come up with a solution. If they respond with apathy, I will pull together a legal case. This should be fairly easy to do.

My experience with Comcast is so bad that I am moving out of this complex to one that allows satelitte! I Have had one problem after the other since the day of installation. The tech left without completing the job on one tv and it took 5 days to return! The problem is not with signal service for me but it is customer service, It is the absolute worst of any company I've ever delt with. I tell everyone to run from comcast! That ugly satellite outside my apt will be the prettiest thing in the yard!
