I just got my Comcast bill in the mail today and noticed under the summary section it said "billed from 9/18/08-10/17/08". I called Comcast and they informed me that all Comcast customers pay a month in advance. I asked the guy why would I pay my bill if I didn't even have cable back yet and haven't had it since the hurricane. He said to pay this bill then to call in once I got my cable back and they would adjust it for the October/November bill for the days I was without it. This is the point to my email- he said if you want your bill adjusted for the time you were out of cable you have to call them and let them know when you have cable back on. Those that do not call in will not be automatically adjusted. I'm not a fan of Comcast at all but can't get satallite b/c of all my trees or actually what is left of them thanks to Ike. This generator crud is getting really old! I envy you lucky ones out there with power.

What's up with AT&T? U-vers a what?

IPTV - tv and internet over your phone wires. Have you been under a rock?

 

[Slightly Dangerous]

U-Verse is the absolutely best darn TV there is. Even when the power was out we had TV with them. They also have the best lineup of any vendor out there and their Movies-on-demand grows every day (up to almost 600 now). They also recently started the Same Day As DVD section which has movies at the same time they are released on DVD. I hate to say it but AT&T finally did something really good and they priced it right.

OK, I'm ready to display my lack of computer knowledge here. Roundman, I also filled out the e-mail contact info but couldn't find anyplace to click to send the info. What am I doing wrong?

 

[roundman]

yea that stumped me too,, reduce the image area to 75% and like magic the submit button shall appear. fill out everthing and in the bottom right coner change the zoom level to 75%

ATT Uverse will only let you watch or record one HD broadcast at the same time. If you have more than one HDTV, you might as well get rid of the rest of them. You can still watch them at regular resolution but not 720 or 1080 . That is the only peeve I have about their service.

 

[bioteacher]

Thanks Roundman. I knew there had to be a trick to it. I'm looking to try someone new, directly.

Next door neighbor only made it to Wednesday after the storm before he fired Comcast and had Direct TV come do an install. I think he was jealous that I had my Dish running the morning after the storm on the generator...I luckily fired Comcast about 6 months ago and have never missed them. I never even considered the hurricane benefit of sat TV until IKE. As long as you have a generator, you can get sat TV!

Getting rid of comcast was one of the more satisfying things I've ever done.

I love my Direct TV.

i'll never give another dime to those crooks at comcast.

their service and television sucks anyway compared.
