Comcast
Cable Blocked on Apartment Line Despite Landlord's Bulk Account

Shops, Products, Services

My landlord pays a commercial cable bill to Comcast for the entire building (his office and several rented rooms, including mine).

This past Thursday (I just learned) they came out and put a block/trap (a piece of hardware) on the line to my apartment for the purpose of preventing me from receiving the TV service which my landlord pays for (a commercial/bulk account for the entire building) and I'm therefore entitled to.

The excuse given to him (Comcast refuses to discuss the matter with me) was that there was a splitter and line from that splitter to my apartment, which was installed by Adelphia, Comcast's predecessor so that my internet service (which I still pay Comcast for) would work.
This is apparently an attempt on Comcast's part to extort payment from me for television service which my landlord has already paid for, and which I am not receiving.

Clearly this is unacceptable behavior on the part of Comcast.
