Re: TICKET # 130914-000349
Address: REDACTED San Francisco, CA 94131

Hello:
Yesterday a cable installer came to my house and installed Comcast
Internet service, but he cut the cable for my landlord's DirecTV
service.
I went to the online chat and "Ronald" told me that the only options
available to me were to schedule an appt. more than a week away, or
let him place a priority ticket, which will result in a phone call
within 24 hours, when they will tell me what times they are avilable.
My landlord is angry, and it is not a sufficient answer to tell me
that he has to wait 24 hours just to be told then how much longer to
wait.
I'd like it fixed tonight or tomorrow, and I'd like to know when
someone cam come tomorrow.
I asked to speak to Ronald's supervisor, and after several names were
mentioned, he put someone named Arnel, the "available supervisor" on.
"Arnel" just wasted my time
for about 45 minutes, trying to bully me into accepting
the same situation.
I asked Arnel three times who his supervisor was, but he would only
give he her name "Joyce", say she was unavailable, and refused to give
me any email for himself or her.
Apparently I have no choice but to wait for a call. I asked "Arnel"
who would be calling me and when, and now he says it will be "24-48
hours", and will be "someone from our higher fix agency".
This is no way to treat people, and no way to respond to a problem
your technician has caused.

The first two promises Comcast support made to
me now stand broken--it
has been 24 hours since they promised to call,
and no one has called.
Your contempt for your customers and
irresponsibility is quite
outrageous--you break things and then refuse to
fix them and lie to
me. You should be ashamed.

I just got a call from "Pearl" who did
not schedule a time to fix the
damage, as had been promised, she just told me
that their technicians
are forbidden to touch non-comcast
lines, and that this was being
forwarded to some local investigation office.
Someone, she didn't
know who, would call me back yet again; and she
didn't know when that
would happen.
So now she is trying to deny that anything
happened at all.
I will immediately be refusing any payment to
Comcast until this is
resolved. If a technician fails to fix it
by Wednesday, Sept. 18, I
will contact DirectTV
to fix it and withhold the amount of their bill
from my Comcast payments.
I am publicly documenting this entire series of
lies, abuse, and
irresponsibility at :
