Try to get a rebate from your offer. Seems like they didn't offer that offer or at least not in that time period. Such BULL! It is stillo posted on the net each day.I left ATT and Dish with a penalty thinking I would at least break even, but they have no intention of giving you that rebate. Customer service is a total JOKE!!! Get your stuff out of my house.

I have had comcast three weeks and can't get a straight answer from any one if they even answer the phone. I have spent 30 minutes on hold several times and no one knows what the other said or what to do to fix it,in several cities. As soon as you say rebate they are through talking to you. They sure found me with next months bill in ADVANCE. They all have access to your records of purchase but each one will tell you a different LIE. So tomorrow they can come get their stuff!!! I hav had enough.

On April 14th,2009 I saw a commercial on the TV for your internet&phone for 69.00, with no mention about NEW customers. You are right about there being NO customer service-I spoke with an Erin then a supervisor(?)Branell. What a joke! We have been a customer ever since the switch about 15years and they couldn't care less about recognizing current customers. Not long ago they took HBO off of us and didn't credit accounts yet to get it back they want to charge you!?! What a way to run a company. I agree and will tell anyone at work or play DOWN with Comcast come on DIRECT TV or another COMPETITOR. WE NEED YOU

On January 21, 2009, Reuters reported that Microsoft has sold its stake in Comcast:

"Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) sold its 7.26 percent stake in Comcast Corp (CMCSA.O), the software giant disclosed in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The filing, dated January 16, showed Microsoft no longer held any Class A shares in Comcast, the largest U.S. cable operator.

Microsoft's stake of around 150.9 million shares would have been worth some $3.4 billion on that day, though the filing did not specify when the shares were sold or at what price. Comcast shares fell as low as $9.20 in September last year.

In 1997, Microsoft invested $1 billion in Comcast to enhance the cable company's deployment of high-speed data and video services via cable delivery network."

Comcast has the worst customer service ever I am so pissed off. I have never had a 30 day period without some sort of interuption in my serivce, but comcast wants their money thought. They will turn you off in a heart beat but will give you every excuss in the book why they cant fix the problems. I plan to send a complaint to comcast the BBB and channel 2 news every week untill they learn how to value their customers Remember for every bad experience with your company a person tells at least 8 other people and that spreads like a wild fire. That is one of the quickest ways to bring a company down. Getting so big you forget the most important person THE CUSTOMER.
