Besides, what ever hsppened to customer service at all??? Brian brick as if i went to the grocery store or any where else for that matter, if there was an error in my bill, i get it for that price, but this all goes well beyond that, as my bill clearly states an incorrect monthly charge, and now it's all this???

Ligaya Please stay onlineLigaya Thank you. Ligaya I will transfer you now. Brian brick oh... Thank you, its about timeLigaya Please stay onlineLigaya Please wait, while the problem is escalated to another analystRozanne Hi Brian. Rozanne I am a supervisor. Brian brick hellobrian brick thank youRozanne Please give me a minute or two to reviw the conversation. Rozanne A minute more please. Rozanne Thank you so much for waiting. Rozanne I apologize for the delay. Brian brick my whole service has been pleagued with so many errors, mistakes, faulty equipment, wasted time & all out unprofesionalism & complete incompetence, and now you all have the nerve to wanna charge me more to an already fixed amount when that is not what has been reflected in my bill here at all. Rozanne I am really sorry for the inconvenience Brian but the caused of the changed is due to change on monthly fee for EMTA/Modem monthly charge. It goes from $5 monthly charge too $7. Rozanne Let me see what I can do. Brian brick yah, ok... As i don't understand that one bit, as that wa snever mentioned to me in the sales agreemnet at all, and how can you charge a person more on an already used modem, i can see if you wanna raise your price for new customers but that is totally unfair & not right for prexisting customers with a previous agreement, besides and as i mentioned, why so much error then and why is that not what is stated in my bill here??? Rozanne I understand where you are coming from Brian. Equipment charges are actually not included on the rate mentioned on the website. Brian brick no, no one ever mentioned nor is it written anywhere that equipment was subject to price change or increase, your just told that your locked into a fixed monthly rate. Brian brick its certainly not listed in any of the paper work i have here, and it's not listed that way in my bill at all. Brian brick according to my paper work my bill is not supposed to be or increase to that amount untill moths 13-24Rozanne It is actually stated in the Service Agreement. The paperwork actually indicates that it is only for the services not including the taxes and equipment charges. Rozanne I am sorry for the confusion. Brian brick how can you charge a person more for a peice of used equipment that they already have a rental agreement with you for anyway, thats just not right. Brian brick well no one changed equipment though, so that is totally misleading as well, because if anyhting i should be given a discount as now i have an older much more used and scratched up cable box sitting here that was o replace the brand new one i got when it was installed that just quit working. Rozanne I understand. I am really sorry for the inconvenience. Let me see what I can do Brick. The equipment change is for all customers. Brian brick well, ok, i appreciate it, but just so you know this is very wrong and for all customers, as it mentions nothing of a possible equipment rate charge increase on my service agreement, and i am sure that this would not be looked on very well in court as its also very convieniant for you all to all of a sudden charge me the 13-24 month rate & call it an equipment rate, when that is not at all what is stated in my bill here. Brian brick (1/9 - 2/8) Service (Recurring charges)$109.99One-time fees, PPV, Usage (Non-recurring charges)$0.00Taxes, surcharges, fees$6.70Total bill$116.69Payments/CreditsPayment received 1/1 - Thank you$112.76Total (previous current) due 01/24$116.69brian brick my recurring charge is 89.99 so is in error whow ever you wanna see it, or try to rearrange it to fit, by bill clearly states what it it, and its wrong. Rozanne I understand Brian. Rozanne I am really sorry for the inconvenience. Rozanne Here is what I will do. I will process a credit for $10 for the inconvenience this has caused you. But moving forward, total charges including the fee will be $113.63. Rozanne This is including the equipment charges as well. Brian brick 109.99 is for months 13-24, so if this is how it works the God knows how much you'll try and charge me then for used rental equipment. Brian brick well that is still the wrong price, so just stop... Make it what it should be and lets stop playing this game, i am locked in a contract with you, and so if thats the case, then it is at a fixed rate you can't just say that is for monthly service and then raise the equipment as you like, no, cause who would ever think that, because then you could raise the modem price to $100.00 am month plus the monthly rate & if people balked at it you could just threaten them with an early termination fee, thats just sad and totally wrong, no one in their right mind would ever agree to that, besides the fatc that it is totally not at all what is stated in my service agreement. Brian brick 112.76 untill moths 13-24, thats it and if you can't do that as agreed to, then please to come and get your stuff as i'm not paying a penny more for so much inconviniance. Brian brick i should by all rights be given a monthly discount for all this non sense, not charged more. Rozanne I understand the frustration Brian but please understand that in today’s challenging economic environment Comcast continues to add value to our products and make technology and service improvements. However Comcast, like many other companies, continues to experience increasing business costs, including rising programming expenses and equipments rates increase. Brian brick all i see is a breach of contract, and i'm tired an i just want out, this is and has all been a complete waste of time. Rozanne Comcast has worked hard to minimize the impact of these increases on customers and rest assure that the EMTA monthly rate will not increase in the next few years. Brian brick then tell that to your NEW CUSTOMERS, NOT your prexisting ones that have already been given a contract and fixed rate, either that or lets just take this whole mess to court and see what a judge might have to say about it all. Rozanne I am really sorry Brian but the agreement is only inclusive for the services stated not the taxes and equipment charges. Brian brick because the whole thing just smells like a scam to me, and has no basis in reality, and is so pleagued with error from the beginning... And is all just far to convieniant for you all, and i just luv how it started out as a tax argument and when that didn't wok all of a sudden became an equipment issue which just so happened to fit that price exactly, hmmm... Rozanne I am sorry Brian. Again, for the current charge, I will be crediting $3.93 and total credit will be $10 for the incovnenience but there is nothing we can do about equipment price change Brian. Brian brick is not stated like that any where and so i want out of the agreemnt then as it is totally unfair and not written or mentioned like that at all, and like i said its a complete scam then, cause you could just up equipment prices to anything one a person is locked in, as you did to me, cause funny how it all just happened to fall just outside of the 3 month termination clause, and funny how your modem increase just happens to match the 13-24 month charge, and funny how all of a sudden a tax issue all of a sudden became an equipment issue... Rozanne New rate from $5 will be $7 for modem EMTA charge. Rozanne I am really sorry. Brian brick come & get your equipment then cause i quite and i'll see you in court then for an obvious breach of contract!!! Brian brick that is so much b.S. And you know it, where was the notice, where is is stated in my bill, no... Its not like that at all, its a complete scam is what it is and i'm through!!! Brian brick you all have wasted my whole night with this non sense and lies, and now i have to get my kids ready for school, thank you very much... I'm so done with you all. Rozanne I am really sorry Brian. Comcast has a lot of more great service to offer. I hope you still stay with Comcast. Your current service has a very low rate compare to the full value rate for the same service which will go up to $170. Rozanne I want you to know that the $10 credit has been appliedRozanne You can take the amount off from the current total balanceRozanne I am really sorry. Brian brick come get your lousy crap if 3.99 means that damn much to you that you can lie and try and cheat me and waste all our time like this, if 3.99 means more to you than keeping a good customer that already has a contract than fine... I'm done and you can keep it!!! Rozanne I am sorry Brian. Brian brick i have seen nothing but errro faulty equipment and agents that are completely incompetant, my service has been lousy since i got this, it took over a month for them just to supposedly put in the right code just to activate my block call service, which i had to waste my time calling in about over and over just to find out the agents had botched it and it needed to be redone, how convinient for you all and then a nother week or so for it to become active, thats real nice. Brian brick how do you thibnk this unprofessionalism effects your customers when your agents can't even get a simple thing like that done right. Brian brick i'm sorry to. Brian brick come and get your stuff this has wasted my whole night now, what to speak of a whole day i had to wait around here to have faulty equipment replaced, time is money and you think that didn't effect me at all, and now you people want more from me... No way. Rozanne I will make sure that will be investigated and correct actions will be taken Brian. I am really sorry. Here is what I can do, to add for compensation for inconvenience this has caused you, I will add free hbo for 12 months. Rozanne Oh I see HBO was already addedRozanne I am sorryRozanne I will go ahead and increase the credit from $10 to $15. This is all the credit I can give Brian. Brian brick i don't want hbo, i don't need or watch it even, so that is in no way any kinda compensation, the only reason i have cable is for the package deal and so my kids can watch cartoons and stuff, i hate tv so forget that, thats no deal at all... I want my bill straightened out to what it should be and thats it, and by all rights if you really wanna compensate me at all, give me a monthly discount, hbo is not gonna help me one bit., i'm on social security with a limited income and never agreed to any of this. Rozanne I am sorry Brian. That is the credit I can give. I can not apply any other discounts in your services because currently you have the lowest discounted rate we have. Rozanne I am really sorry. But rest assure that there will be no equipment rate increase Brian except for this. Brian brick no, i can not accept that at all... I am not paying you a dime more for some used piece of equipment that i am in contract with you for already, that is not part of the agreement, and that 3.99 a month adds up to be alot over time and thats a loaf a bread or more for us, you don't understand that and i am in no position to be able to give u a single cent more, and so if u want ya 3.99 increase that bad you can have it, keep it, and keep all your lousy equipment and service, as i'm not having it and if you wanna break ya contract like that then by all rights so should i and so we'll jsut say good bye, call it a day and that will be that and we both loose, but i can find another supplier, i am not gonna pay for the way i have been treated and the service i have recieved from comcast, i can not belive it. Brian brick if you truly want my buisness then i'll respectfully accept your $15.00 credit and you can honor your monthly rate of 89.99 as well. Brian brick if you can not at least do that then we'll just part ways amicably here and now and you all can just come and pick up your stuff. Rozanne I am so sorry Brian. $15 credit has been applied. You can take this off from your current bill. This is all the credit I can give. I am really sorry. This will show in your next bill as service adjust credit. Brian brick that is fine, but i am not paying you any additional 3.99 eaqupiment charges or any other previously unmentioned charges and if you don't like that, i guess we all can just take this whole matter to court, because you and i both know that this just isn't right!!! Rozanne That will be additional of $2 Brian. I am sorry. There is nothing I can do with the equipment charge. Brian brick i have my service agreement contract right here, plus that is not how it is stated in my current bill at all, and i was given no notice or any thing about this change, and so i guess we will see just how a judge will feel about all this, as this is complete non sense. Brian brick there is something you can do, you can remove it, as i never agreed to it and the contract does not state that it is subject to further equipment charges or changes as i am merly renting previously used equipment from you, so how can that even be... Tell it to someone else cause i quit. Rozanne Equipment are good as new even if it is used already Brian. I can not remove this charge since that will disable your internet and phone service. Brian brick yah they look real great as well when they come all scratched up, besides that i'm not debating how well they work or not, thats not the point, point is that they are used, already bought and paid for and no reason to increase the price once already sold or rented, tell it to a new renter. Rozanne I am sorry Brian. If there are any issues with the equipment, you can always have it swapped in the service center. I am sorry again, I can not do anything with the price change for modem rental. Brian brick you can remove the charge, you can remove the charge just as you added it without changing my service, and just like you can make a credit adjustment you can change that charge as well or at least add it up then, 3.99 x 24 = 95.76brian brick thats what you can do for me then or i am gone and that is that. Rozanne I can not because that will disable the service. Rozanne I can not do that Brian. Brian brick liarRozanne If you want, you can call our local service center area and check if EMTA/MODEM is available for purchasebrian brick noRozanne So that you will not have to pay monthly charge. Brian brick you do what iis contractRozanne I am sorry. Brian brick no, it is alreasdy rented at an agreed price. Brian brick i am not paying you anything more for something that is no more and is not costling you any more, especially considering all the errors in service that i have had to put up and deal with from you. Brian brick time is money, i had to sit here and get a new cable box installed as well wehn the ole one which was brand new failed and then was replaced with an ole scratched up one that at least seems to work better, but in any case... You can not expect any more money out of me for any of this!!! Rozanne I am sorry Brianbrian brick i'm sorry to then Rozanne, come pick up your stuff when my period has ended. Brian brick i will find another proveder then, sorry. Rozanne You need to call our loyalty department to set up cancellation. You can call them at 1800 9346489brian brick but i will be damned if i will be trappd in any kinda contract termination thing, when my contact has been breached to begin with. Brian brick no i don't have any more time to put into this... I tell you what, just let my bill run up till you have toi take me to collections and then we will see you in court and all this will be discussed and we'll just see what any judge has to say about it, i'm done wasting my time. Brian brick i am not calling or talking to any one else about this, if you can not handle this situation appropriately then i am done, deal with it. Rozanne I will close this chat now Brian if you do not have any more questions. Again, I am sorry for the equipment charges rate. Credit has been applied. Rozanne Thank you for contacting Comcast. Rozanne Goodbye now. Brian brick yah thanx... We'll see you in court then eventually i guess, thanks for your time.

Besides, what ever hsppened to customer service at all???

Rozanne Hi Brian. Rozanne I am a supervisor. Brian brick hellobrian brick thank youRozanne Please give me a minute or two to reviw the conversation. Rozanne A minute more please. Rozanne Thank you so much for waiting. Rozanne I apologize for the delay. Brian brick my whole service has been pleagued with so many errors, mistakes, faulty equipment, wasted time & all out unprofesionalism & complete incompetence, and now you all have the nerve to wanna charge me more to an already fixed amount when that is not what has been reflected in my bill here at all. Rozanne I am really sorry for the inconvenience Brian but the caused of the changed is due to change on monthly fee for EMTA/Modem monthly charge. It goes from $5 monthly charge too $7. Rozanne Let me see what I can do. Brian brick yah, ok... As i don't understand that one bit, as that wa snever mentioned to me in the sales agreemnet at all, and how can you charge a person more on an already used modem, i can see if you wanna raise your price for new customers but that is totally unfair & not right for prexisting customers with a previous agreement, besides and as i mentioned, why so much error then and why is that not what is stated in my bill here??? Rozanne I understand where you are coming from Brian. Equipment charges are actually not included on the rate mentioned on the website. Brian brick no, no one ever mentioned nor is it written anywhere that equipment was subject to price change or increase, your just told that your locked into a fixed monthly rate. Brian brick its certainly not listed in any of the paper work i have here, and it's not listed that way in my bill at all. Brian brick according to my paper work my bill is not supposed to be or increase to that amount untill moths 13-24Rozanne It is actually stated in the Service Agreement. The paperwork actually indicates that it is only for the services not including the taxes and equipment charges. Rozanne I am sorry for the confusion. Brian brick how can you charge a person more for a peice of used equipment that they already have a rental agreement with you for anyway, thats just not right. Brian brick well no one changed equipment though, so that is totally misleading as well, because if anyhting i should be given a discount as now i have an older much more used and scratched up cable box sitting here that was o replace the brand new one i got when it was installed that just quit working. Rozanne I understand. I am really sorry for the inconvenience. Let me see what I can do Brick. The equipment change is for all customers. Brian brick well, ok, i appreciate it, but just so you know this is very wrong and for all customers, as it mentions nothing of a possible equipment rate charge increase on my service agreement, and i am sure that this would not be looked on very well in court as its also very convieniant for you all to all of a sudden charge me the 13-24 month rate & call it an equipment rate, when that is not at all what is stated in my bill here. Brian brick (1/9 - 2/8) Service (Recurring charges)$109.99One-time fees, PPV, Usage (Non-recurring charges)$0.00Taxes, surcharges, fees$6.70Total bill$116.69Payments/CreditsPayment received 1/1 - Thank you$112.76Total (previous current) due 01/24$116.69brian brick my recurring charge is 89.99 so is in error whow ever you wanna see it, or try to rearrange it to fit, by bill clearly states what it it, and its wrong. Rozanne I understand Brian. Rozanne I am really sorry for the inconvenience. Rozanne Here is what I will do. I will process a credit for $10 for the inconvenience this has caused you. But moving forward, total charges including the fee will be $113.63. Rozanne This is including the equipment charges as well. Brian brick 109.99 is for months 13-24, so if this is how it works the God knows how much you'll try and charge me then for used rental equipment. Brian brick well that is still the wrong price, so just stop... Make it what it should be and lets stop playing this game, i am locked in a contract with you, and so if thats the case, then it is at a fixed rate you can't just say that is for monthly service and then raise the equipment as you like, no, cause who would ever think that, because then you could raise the modem price to $100.00 am month plus the monthly rate & if people balked at it you could just threaten them with an early termination fee, thats just sad and totally wrong, no one in their right mind would ever agree to that, besides the fatc that it is totally not at all what is stated in my service agreement. Brian brick 112.76 untill moths 13-24, thats it and if you can't do that as agreed to, then please to come and get your stuff as i'm not paying a penny more for so much inconviniance. Brian brick i should by all rights be given a monthly discount for all this non sense, not charged more. Rozanne I understand the frustration Brian but please understand that in today’s challenging economic environment Comcast continues to add value to our products and make technology and service improvements. However Comcast, like many other companies, continues to experience increasing business costs, including rising programming expenses and equipments rates increase. Brian brick all i see is a breach of contract, and i'm tired an i just want out, this is and has all been a complete waste of time. Rozanne Comcast has worked hard to minimize the impact of these increases on customers and rest assure that the EMTA monthly rate will not increase in the next few years. Brian brick then tell that to your NEW CUSTOMERS, NOT your prexisting ones that have already been given a contract and fixed rate, either that or lets just take this whole mess to court and see what a judge might have to say about it all. Rozanne I am really sorry Brian but the agreement is only inclusive for the services stated not the taxes and equipment charges. Brian brick because the whole thing just smells like a scam to me, and has no basis in reality, and is so pleagued with error from the beginning... And is all just far to convieniant for you all, and i just luv how it started out as a tax argument and when that didn't wok all of a sudden became an equipment issue which just so happened to fit that price exactly, hmmm... Rozanne I am sorry Brian. Again, for the current charge, I will be crediting $3.93 and total credit will be $10 for the incovnenience but there is nothing we can do about equipment price change Brian. Brian brick is not stated like that any where and so i want out of the agreemnt then as it is totally unfair and not written or mentioned like that at all, and like i said its a complete scam then, cause you could just up equipment prices to anything one a person is locked in, as you did to me, cause funny how it all just happened to fall just outside of the 3 month termination clause, and funny how your modem increase just happens to match the 13-24 month charge, and funny how all of a sudden a tax issue all of a sudden became an equipment issue... Rozanne New rate from $5 will be $7 for modem EMTA charge. Rozanne I am really sorry. Brian brick come & get your equipment then cause i quite and i'll see you in court then for an obvious breach of contract!!! Brian brick that is so much b.S. And you know it, where was the notice, where is is stated in my bill, no... Its not like that at all, its a complete scam is what it is and i'm through!!! Brian brick you all have wasted my whole night with this non sense and lies, and now i have to get my kids ready for school, thank you very much... I'm so done with you all. Rozanne I am really sorry Brian. Comcast has a lot of more great service to offer. I hope you still stay with Comcast. Your current service has a very low rate compare to the full value rate for the same service which will go up to $170. Rozanne I want you to know that the $10 credit has been appliedRozanne You can take the amount off from the current total balanceRozanne I am really sorry. Brian brick come get your lousy crap if 3.99 means that damn much to you that you can lie and try and cheat me and waste all our time like this, if 3.99 means more to you than keep
