hold to talk to Customer Service about this and hopefully will be a quick fix.

Walking Dead is on a break till February, so it wasn't on last night.


Hmmm, well that is a good point. I still don't show the channel as being on my guide. I'll look again tonight.


It's channel 1119 at my house, tBone.

all the programs I had on the old system.

Thanks, T-Bone. Apparently U-verse TV is not available in Schaumburg.


I looked into U-Verse, but found that it is unavailable here, as well. I have really had it with Comcast. My service has been back to normal, as of the day before Thanksgiving, but for the five weeks leading up to that, it was awful. The cable/internet/phone would just stop for a few minutes at a time, several times per day. Sometimes, the cable box in the living room would just stop working. We would get a blue screen, and nothing else. When I would call to complain about the cable, the automated messages would tell me to check the cables to make sure they were connected properly, and to check video inputs. No shit, sherlock.

I did a live chat, and the internet went down four times during the chat. I finally called, mad as hell, and demanded to be connected to the highest person on the food chain. There isn't much that the customer service reps can do, other than offer a $20 refund. My bill is $221 each month, so $20 wasn't going to cut it. The guy on the other line offered me a $149 refund on my next bill. I accepted that offer, but am still in the process of finding a replacement. My only other option is Direct TV.

I have a big package, if you'll pardon the expression. I have NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL Networks, HBO, SHO, etc. On a Saturday afternoon in October, there are 10 or 12 college football games on at a time.

We don't go out much, so we can justify spending that money per month. $221 would be a couple nights out with dinner and drinks. I think the last time that my wife and I went out to dinner, just the two of us, was two anniversaries ago.

They worked that out in like 12 hours.

Like DISH, but you will lose signal on rainy and foggy days along with times of heavy wet snow.

There was an installation fee but apparently the person that set it up for me didn't bundle it together
and give me the promotional deal. Supposed to have a supervisor call me back and get it all fixed.

Yep all bundled. To be fair, we moved and they were offering a promotion.

Switched to Comcast

All the channels..all of the premium channels. Phone and very high speed Internet as well for $130 after taxes a month for two years. With Comcast you can download their app where you're able to watch live TV or your dvr recordings on a tablet.
