The OP seems to move around a lot. You'd think having a Comcast alternative would be on the must-have list for a new home by now. I guess he is moving into 20+ mile radii with no ISP other than Comcast?
- TheCondor 12y agoYou'd think. A bit of this sounds self inflicted though, it's easy to hate Comcast. I'm not defending them but in the 8 years I had them it was rock solid, no issues at all, and they actually upped performance a couple times at no cost to me.
- sombremesa 12y agoI wonder whether that was when your neighbors hired attorneys.
- Istof 12y agoEvery month or so, my Comcast service goes down for at least 1/2 day at a time, but Comcast is currently my cheapest option. Many local businesses also rely on Comcast and when that happens, you can't pay by card. ATT used to be priced similarly but since they only let you subscribe for U-verse (DSL is no longer available for new customers), the price increased twofold for the same services (6mbps DSL VS 6mbps u-verse)
- ryanSrich 12y agoNot OP, but I move often. For your consideration: - My DC apartment only had support for Comcast - My NY apartment only had support for TWC - My Portland apartment only has support for Comcast In every instance there was only two real options but because of the way apartment complexes work you really only have one option. It doesn't get better if you own a home either. I know plenty of homeowners that are stuck with Comcast because the alternative "isn't available on their street"...for whatever reason.
- brianbreslin 12y agoThe wiring in the apartment complex is owned by Comcast or the provider. It is technically a separate asset to the real estate in the building.
