I've had enough

Every couple of weeks, my bedroom cable refuses to connect. I call the help line and get someone reading a script. I waste 20 .minutes before I even get an actual person, then all they do is read the list. Ive already rebooted 15 times before I called, do we really have to do this? It is impossible to get a person who doesnt just read the script, the phone menu is ludicrous, by the time you can even get a person, youre ready to throw the box out the window. I've had enough. Been with Comcast for decades. I think I'm at the end. I'm done talking to an awful automated phone line. If you dont care enough to talk to your customers, why should I care enough to give you over $500 a month for cable, internet and cell.

I've never seen a communication company do everything possible to not communicate with their customers. And to make it so utterly impossible to get help.

Good evening, @vipey7! I am sorry to hear your TV box keeps going offline. We are grateful that you have tried the troubleshooting steps in the past and want this to be fixed once and for all! We are happy to further assist you! When the TV box will not connect what are you seeing (a certain error message, black screen, welcome screen)? How long have you had the box in your bedroom?

This happens every few weeks. I get to the screen where it says welcome,  connecting to your entertainment experience...and those three dots juat keep going and it never connects. Been trying for over an hour. And then in the morning it will magically work. This happens all the time.

@XfinityRay​ you know what the problem with this is? I've already wasted more time on this than I should, and now I'm supposed to take more steps? I,habe a better idea. You want people's business? Get rid of the ludicrous automated phone line and call centers in India, so I can speak to a person immediately who isnt going to tell me to turn it off and on again.  This is ly entire problem. Ive gone down this road but had there been one oerson to talk to over a phone call without some ridiculous phone tree, I wouldn't be frustrated. Im done with ha ping to jump through hoop after hoop because xfinity customer service is atrocious. Im not wasting more of my time to fix a problem that should have been 1 5 minute phone call.

We are here to help you and get this fixed once and for all, vipey7. I understand working with other teams already that this should not still be going on. We feel the same way! Our team is able to take any steps that are needed such as replacing the box or getting a visit set up to address any signal problems that are causing this to happen. We are also able to stay with you over time without starting over to ensure this is resolved. Feel free to send us a direct message with the steps above at your convenience. I understand it is late this evening. We are glad to assist you further when you are ready.
