ESPN constantly glitching

For many weeks now, I have been having an issue watching ESPN.

The screen continually glitches and starts to get pixelated and pauses.  This interruption happens over and over and over again. It is happening ONLY on ESPN.  Our signal is fine otherwise; all other channels do not have this issue. 

Can someone please let me know if this is a known issue or not? Is something being done about it? I am not receiving the service I am paying for.

Hello, @user_t5qnju. We appreciate you reaching our team regarding the ESPN concerns, I definitely understand how frustrating can be to experience pixelation issues. Are there any troubleshooting steps you've attempted and is this happening on multiple devices or only one?

Hi there...we have unplugged and replugged all cords from the box. We have also restarted the box. None of these had any impact. It is only happening on the primary device. Thank you.

user_t5qnju Yes please do. When you send a private message before being asked to most of the time it is not received since we do not have a message from us to attach it to a post.  Please make sure to provide your name the name of the account owner if different and your full-service address including any apartment or unit numbers, the City, State, and zip code so we can better assist.

Please note that sending unsolicited private messages to myself or any other user is a direct violation of our forum guidelines. Per those guidelines, continued violations could be subject to a revocation of your Xfinity Forum privileges. We never want to get to that point with any user, so we recommend reviewing those guidelines thoroughly. You must first create a Public post requesting assistance, and once a Comcast verified employee responds and asks for a private message to be sent, you can then proceed with doing so.

Still garbled and pixelated non stop on all ESPN channels. Doesn't matter which cable box we are using. I'm getting close to canceling Comcast and moving to Verizon

Sportsnet Pittsburgh (CH 843), ESPNHD (CH 850) and ESPN2HD (CH 851) extremely pixelated, or have error message saying that there is a problem that is being worked on. This has been going on for about a week and has happened in the past at random times. Usually during hockey/football season when I use it the most.
