They called at 12:45 that they're "parked and walking to my apartment", and showed up at 12:55! I'm impressed!!!

Turns out my outside cable was ripped off from the poles by a truck this morning (my cable goes out thru a hole from my 3rd flr apartment, down the side of the building, and out to poles on the street). Funny thing is that, I think the same thing happened to my downstairs neighbor with their FIOS cable about 2-3 weeks ago.

I'm just glad that I'm "connected" again - I felt so lonely all morning long!!! Now I can go back to binge watching Twin Peaks!!!

OP did they show?

i can never get my smartphone to connect to xfinitywifi.. am i the only one with this problem? its super frustrating.

I gave up calling out Comcast for internet issues. I use their OTA Xfinitywifi as a back-up, and if there's really a problem with home service, I just go buy a new modem and have them enable it remotely. I've bought 3 in about 10 years.

If there's no problem at your end of the connection, there's really no need for them to visit.

So - I woke up this morning, and my internet is out. Called comcast and they needed to send someone out. First schedule was wednesday this week. I said, "are you kidding me?" The rep on the phone tried again, "how about 9-1pm this morning?". I said much better.

So now I'm sitting here and twirlling my fingers, and waiting. What are the odds someone will show up by 1pm?

My bet is no one!!!

Hope I'm wrong!!!
