Called customer service bad service

Call customer service today and the phone obviously was put down on someone’s desk while they were having conversations with other people within the call center. Then I yelled and asked him to pick up the phone. They put me on hold after 15 minutes.  Still on hold. Very POOR customer experience.

The DVR is not recording anything and the system say”You have nothing scheduled for the next 14 days”. We have several things recording.  I tried using the Assistant and it did a call back to my phone number. But all I could hear was a bunch of talking in the background in the call center. When I yelled and asked if they could pick up the phone please they they put me on hold for a few more minutes. After 20 minutes of waiting to get customer service to help me with the DVR recording schedule, they just hung up. I would greatly appreciate some help.

3. Reboot the cable box
-Press the XFINITY button.
-Select Settings (gear icon).
-Go to Device Settings.

OR
-Unplug the power cord from the back of the X1 box.

They ended up hanging up the call, without even speaking with me. Problem is still NOT resolved.
