Comcastrophe
Jump to Comments
Reader Lauren and the crew at elaney have been working to get digital cable available at the office for the interns to monitor celebrity news 24 hours a day. Comcast is officially a comcastrophe. And they worst part of it is – you can literally do NOTHING about it. Ever had it out with the cable or utility company? Or any big business that you were a mere pawn in their monopoly? Well, “com, cast” your burdens on us! Air your grievances here!

It makes me mad that as an existing customer you can’t get the internet/cable bundle…that option is only available for new customers – WTF?

Verizon can kiss my tail. I have NO phone service at my house b/c I’m ever-so-slightly down a hill. My phone acts as if I’m a mile below sea level. The super helpful lady at the Verizon store told me I could get phone service at my house for a mear $249.00 for some internet/phone wire hook up service blah blah blah. Thanks guys for “making every effort to meet and exceed” my expectations.” (a quote from an email I received from yet another super helpful Verizon employee. I’ve tried that avenue too.)

Thank you for this site. The content is much better than most I have visited and I have found the information very helpful.

i have the regional manager for comcast’s name and number if you ever feel like prank calling her- i do it when i’m having a bad day.
j/k on the prank calling- but i really do have her name and number from a previous comcastrophe and trust me- if you are persistent enough- you can get all the deals that the “new customers” get as an existing customer.
