Re: Cfu

I'm definitely not making blind accusations. I have many co-workers/friends that would agree with my accusations.

Also, I know you can't believe everything you read on the Internet.....but there seems to be a lot of people I don't know that also agree with me.

I'm glad you had good service, but apparantly there are many that don't.

And you wasted a lot of time going through a lot of trouble for nothing.

You can research negative things about any company, especially ones that provide a service and find a lot of unhappy people.

I have also had good service with US Cellular and I will bet you can find thousands of people that havent.

All I am saying is to say things like, "you will never get a letter of apology from Mediacom" is a stupid thing to say.

There is no way you can prove that, therefore, it is a blind accusation.

Wow - I didn't know I had to prove my opinion based on my experience with this company. And it took me two seconds to google mediacom reviews, so I didn't really waste a lot of time.

Two seconds of wasted time.

I think you might need to research the defnintion of opinion.

Re: Cfu

I remember one of the first things I did when I moved out on my own was get cable TV -- my parents were always too cheap to get cable when I was growing up. I dumped it a couple years later when Extended Basic (!? What an oxymoron.) jumped to $25/month.

What is it nowadays?

Re: Cfu

1. I lost CFU at the end of the game, too
2. I turned on Channelsurfing.net and watched the end...in TURKISH!! At least my wife and I got to see it.
3. This is a very rare "problem" I have had with CFU since living in CF...and it really wasn't CFU's problem. Hate on the weather if it somehow makes you feel better.
4. We used to lose ALL cable t.v. "often" when we had Mediacom in W'loo (but that was 8 - 10 years ago, so maybe things have changed)
5. I would not support increasing fees to go to a fiber connection when the is the first time I remember it happening. If it had happened during 60 Minutes I would venture to say we wouldn't have this thread.
6. I would NEVER switch from CFU to Mediacom...EVER (or unless / until something drastic changes...whichever comes first)

Re: Cfu

I used to hate Mediacom, but I switched back to them about 9 months ago to save about $80 a month on the bundle. It was a major pain getting the install, service, and pricing to what they promised me, because they screwed it up about every way they could. However, since getting all that up front stuff straightened out my service has been perfect. As long as I don't have to ever talk to anyone at Mediacom I'm happy. I've had no weather related issues, whereas I probably lost service about once every 2-3 months due to weather with the satellite service I used to have.

I think they made a lot of internal policy changes to improve customer service.

They won cable operator of the year last year so I think the improvements have been noticed.

Did you see the awards show for Koch's POY, O'Rear's 6th Man Of The Year Award or Jake's Coach of the Year Award?

Doesn't mean it didn't happen though.
