| I am sooooooooooo mad our internet has been going off repeatedly for the last couple of days around the same time (1 pm) and then coming back on at around 6 pm...... we called cox and they said that there were no outages or maintenance going on in our area so we get a guy to come out and fix our problem....... so teh guy comes out and fixes out internet and then he takes a look at our television (did we ask him to look at that ???? NO)..... so guess what.... we have "limited basic cable" which i guess is only supposed to be channels 1-13, but we have been able to receive channels 1-74 ....... he puts the cable on the "real limited basic" so now we only get channels 1-13 some of you may just say "oh well" since that is what we are paying for, but it pisses me off.... the cable guy comes and checks something that we didnt even ask him to check and after all this time of getting extended channels he decides to shut it off just like that .......... GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR, we got the name and phone number of his supervisor and we are going to call and complain (it wasnt our fault they screwed up......... but now we are pissed because we want our channels back and it will be like another 50 a month!!!!) |

| please don't be offended,but i think if you call them they are going to tell you that you get what you pay for. i have had it done to me too but i had no defense because it's not what i'm paying for.

| Wow! I guess the repairmen are told to look at such things no matter what they're called for. Now that I know, Me thinks that I would unplug the TV and put a blanket over it. "The TV? Yea, it's broken. We're getting another next week." |

| I have never heard of Cox, but... shhhh... my step sister's boyfriend works for Comc*st and he set us up big time. When they came to fix/ set up our Internet, we called him and let him know. He took our work order right outta the computer at their home base, came to set up our Internet and give us HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, etc. They came to fix an fallen wire/polel once and took all of our stuff down. They didn't come in our house and the fallen pole wasn't near our cable hookup and they still looked and took it down! We got it back again though
