EPB problems lately anyone? Good gosh I've been going round and round with Comcast lately. I'm about to ditch them.
Whoops! Sorry I didn't see the Howlin Corner. I guess two are happy.

Everyone I know who has EPB is happy. The only exception is that apparently EPB doesn't have the video-on-demand library that Cumcast has. Yet!

So I get a call last night from Comcast that tells me they our going to do some work in our neighborhood and our internet service will be down for an hour. Well it did! So I've a numerous outages today and asked the dude at Comcast what's the problem and has he heard of any problems out here in our area and he says noand he hasn't heard of any problems in my area but we will send a tech to your house. I said no because as I'm talking to him I get connected again and lets see how this pans out. So now I just get a long distant call from a Comcast robot that says technicians have now repaired your problem. COMCAST SUCKS!

I love EPB. No problems. You are correct Manly, but I think eventually they will have more.

Well I f'm finally ditching Comcast for the EPB. It will be $10 a month cheaper. I got sick and tired of either real slow service or none at all. I'm convinced it's in their lines somewhere. Seemed like every time it rained it would slow down to a crawl. We'll be getting it in on the 1st so I'll update later on how it works compared to Comcast.

Comcast is in much need of replacing lines going to homes. These lines are worn out. They don't use the best RG6 in the first place and need to upgrade everyone to at least a RG11. It will be expensive for them, so why let anyone know that is the problem. I have issues with them all the time. And RAPH I HOPE you asked for a CREDIT for the service you weren't getting. I get credits all the time. If they aren't supplying the service, refund is due. It may be 2 dollars, but 2 dollars is still 2 dollars. I would love to switch to EPB, but alas, my hold out is the video on demand Get with it EPB!

I can finally load a you tube without having it stop. But I think your right. It seemed like every time it rained or Johnny down the street was downloading something ours would come to a crawl or either stop all together. Now I have to get Comcast to come and pull the rest of their cable off my house to the pole.

I'm thinking about wrapping it around the pole a few times.
