Despite making plenty of noise about improving customer service, the latest American Consumer Satisfaction Index (ACSI), says customer service from Comcast is actually getting worse.
The InterWebiTubes are filled with angry websites, and stories about Comcast's problems.

Comcast claims all this is simply an issue with the media, perception, or Comcast's subcontractors. Recently they set up teams of employees who click around social networks or online forums in an effort to reduce the number of these stories coming out. I actually had a hard time compiling the list above because all the original links I saved over the past few years no longer worked. Especially the more spectacular, Comcast Blows Up House, and Murder, which disappeared from the Chicago Tribunes web site like a South American political prisoner.

Direct TV, never looked back...
That happened to a friend of mine who lives in Holyoke. She was complaining in her blog about Comcast doing a poor job installing her internet access and now they won't stop calling her trying to resolve the problem.
I'm considering getting the blog up and running again because I had a few channels drop off and I made several phone calls over there and couldn't get anyone to help me. It was clear they didn't care or were incompetent. I can't get any kind of definitive list of what channels I'm supposed to have in the first place.
I hate, hate, hate Comcast. I would switch to DirectTV in a minute except it ends up being almost twice as expensive when you split the internet off separately.
