Pros: Good Reception Cons: same movies over and over again
I enjoy movies and mostly sitcoms, well it would be nice to see a variety of movies once and awhile. I think most of the time is spent surfing instead of watching, come on for these prices put something on. I said I liked sitcoms well at least the...

Pros: Fibre Optics have improved some channels, Digital Cable Cons: Insanely expensive! Monopoly! poor reception on many channels, poor channel selection
Comcast cablevision is one of the largest cable companies in the US.
That is not a positive.
What may work in one area, does not fit for all areas and it seems that Comcast has taken their "cookie-cutter" mentality...

Pros: none - they're the only game in town Cons: prices keep going up
My local cable station was just bought out by Comcast, so maybe it is too soon to tell how I will like Comcast. However, I despised my previous cable company (Suburban Cable) so much that I can’t believe anything could be worse.
I have a...

Pros: better reception than without Cons: "nothing" on to choose from. not a good value
It was very disappointing to have spent the time completing their survey, only to find that NOTHING any of my household members voted on, or selected was added to programming. Quite reasonable requests, such as, Court TV, which the neighboring cable...

Pros: I would like to know Cons: How do I name them all?
I guess you could say that I have had it up to my ears with Comcast. They would not be my first choice in Cable Television providers. Unfortunately there are two reasons why I have Comcast.
#1 - I inherited Comcast from my last cable company...

Pros: Limited Basic provides affordable reception on local broadcast channels in bad-reception areas. Cons: No "A La Carte" pricing. Anti-public-interest lobbying of local government regulators.
Comcast (a/k/a "AT&T Broadband") has a monopoly in about 90% of Seattle-area neighborhoods. Under the 1992 Federal Cable Act, local governments can regulate pricing on the "lowest level of service" of large cable-TV companies. Comcast does not ...

Pros: large selection of channels Cons: almost impossible to tape programs on different channels while away from home
The converter box for Comcast cable is very difficult to program. This makes taping multiple programs while not home almost impossible. You can't program with just your VCR, because that has to be set to channel 4 or channel 3 all the time. Comcast...

Pros: A pretty good channel lineup and I do like the OnDemand stuff. Cons: Shoddy signup process
Lots of technical glitches
Bait & Switch
We recently moved and Comcast Cable was listed as the local provider. Since we do not care for satellite television and I was tired of DSL internet service we decided to do Comcast's "Triple Play" and combine our phone, internet and cable. When I ...

Pros: Digital Cable increased viewing of educational programs. Cons: No support from customer service.
$800. pay per view bill which customer service feels that I should be responsible for because they say there is no way the movies could have been ordered outside of my home.
Reasoning of the executive office:
I have a two-way system and...

Pros: Speed of internet. Apparently nice CSR's Cons: Misinformed CSR's (Customer Service Rep's). Or they lie.
This has been an extremely frustrating 8 hours. First, I received my bill which had my new billing rate after my introductory period was over. 15% more than what it was. Understandable. A notification would have been nice. So I call Comcast and I ...

Pros: High speed access to the interenet, no dial-up. Cons: The higher monthly cost of service, and Comcast's notoriously bad customer service.
I have been a Comcast/AT&T Broadband/Mediaone customer for over 6 years, since it was first available in my area. I have been a fantastic customer for them, never once delinquent on a bill, and even bringing other customers to their service. For this...

Pros: Good Repair Service Cons: Bad Phone Connection
I signed up for Comcast once I bought my house because I thought it was great that I would only recieve one bill for cable, phone and internet. Now, I am thinking of moving, and I DO NOT plan on signing up with comcast once I am in my new house. The ...

Pros: One or two times a month there's a "free" On Demand movie/show worth watching Cons: Hold times are outrageous, expensive, , on demand overprices, unreliable TV/Internet
Comcast confuses me. On the one hand, they have that neat On Demand service where you can basically do real-time PPV purchases. On the other hand, they think that sending a digital movie to you is worth $4.99 (it was questionable enough at $3.99). ...

Pros: Good installation, some good channels Cons: Expensive, a lot of lousy channels
Comcast Cablevison of NJ seems to live up to the stereotype of the cable companies - mediocre service and really expensive for what you get. I've had Comcast for about 6 years and not very much has improved over that time. They keep coming out with...

Pros: Good Cable TV service, On Demand offers free programs and many new release titles. Cons: Frequent outages, false advertising, unqualified installers, billing errors
I have had Comcast and while I love their on demand cable programs and had no major outages. Their internet and phone services were not as trouble free. Frequent phone and internet outages, errors in billing for equipment and lackluster customer ...
