I saw an ad for Comcast high speed internet for $19.95 for six months. I called and signed up for it, and I asked if I could pick up the self-install kit locally instead of waiting for it to ship. I was told thta I could, and I was given the local address of where I could pick it up.\r
\r
Not fully trusting Comcast, I also called the local office directly and asked them if I could pick up the kit that day and still get the offer. I was told that I could, and once again I was told where to go to get the kit.\r
\r
I went to the local office and while I was picking up my modem and the kit I asked them TWICE to verify on their system that I was signed up for $19.95 for SIX months, and TWICE he verified in their system that I was.\r
\r
When I got my fist bill it showed $24.95 for FOUR months!! I called Comcast and explianed the story above. They flatly refused to do ANYTHING! I was told that their system showed $24.95 for four months and that was that.\r
\r
I am canceling my ""replacement"" offer today (two months early), and they have lost a customer for LIFE!!\r
\r
I hope that the extra $5 a month for two months was worth losing a customer for life for, but obviously for them it is!\r
