years of blissful freedom?

I have Comcast, I went over the 300GB cap by 300GB three months in a row (March, April, May), but they didn't put the charge on the bill or tell me about any caps until my June bill. The July bill had the April overage charges. The August bill has the May overage charges.

lol they're loving me so hard and they didn't even give me time to stop using the internet. goddamn i am getting owned

and what sucks is that they roll this poo poo out slowly in order to contain the rage, county by county, fcc complaint by fcc complaint (actually nobody reads these ever)






well anyway the point of this boring thread is to tell you this: comcast technicians all use a similar email address. it follows this format: csatech100@comcast.net. if you write a script (excel works fine too) to generate csatech001@comcast.net through csatech999@comcast.net only half of your goatse emails will bounce back

edit: ok fine here are the emails http://pastebin.com/kjT7QfuT

Hey OP there's always DSL!

When Comcast fucks you, you can always count on AT&T to... gently caress you too because their data caps are at 250 for their dsl and they charge overages too

Try purchasing an internet connection from a company that doesn't hate you.

I recently did this and it has been a good experience so far.

AT&T and Comcast have a duopoly in my area, they are both capped, and there's nothing to switch to.

i do have the option of giving them twice as much money for an uncapped business class internet (with a bonus two year contract)

my for real options are to pay up, or move to another area, and nobody's doing that over the internet. i'd rather stop using it

My only providers are att and cox and neither are capped. 50/mo for 50mbps going up to 150 for like 80. Seems reasonable.

First they came for Comcast, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not Comcastic.

Then they came for AT&T, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a DSL user.

Then they came for the Cox, and I liked that—

here's the thing, i have a router with tomato software and its' data does not match up with comcast's meter. not even a little bit.

and that makes sense because we just watch netflix, hulu, and porn. it's not even high quality porn, just normal low quality streaming stuf

So, you've just been bending over and taking comcasts dick without even fighting?




Heres you: " okaay :smith:"

I've been fighting. I just think they have me by the short hairs since there's no local competition besides AT&T and they charge more and provide less.

Are there some sort of secret ISPs I don't know about?

I worked for a Comcast cable contractor as a service tech. I never even got an email address, just a heavy chirp phone. Got paid piecemeal for installations and it seems I got assigned a lot of lovely haunted houses that need a new cable drop and rewiring/connecting new rooms; some took a half a day when the usual visit can't exceed 30 minutes if you want to make any money.
Made less than minimum some weeks.

I'll still gladly accept your goatse if you can kindly post it in this thread.

i'm not sure what your point is. it sounds like you were treated horribly as a comcast "contractor" and yet you still want me to post goatse in this thread so i get banned?

loving comcast employees, always trying to gently caress you over
