TV messed up for more than 2 months now and after dozens of hours on the phone and 2 technician visits..still messed up.
This has been a travesty of customer service and inept tech support.
> months ago my cable box started making popping sounds like electrical arcing and giving off an ozone smell. To avoid my house burning down I disconnected and replaced at my nearest Xfinity store.
The new box worked for about a week and then started pixelating and screen going blank. Finally I was only able to receive 2 channels out of the 200+ I'm paying for (AHC and Recipe.tv -ugh!)
5+ times I was on the phone with tech support where:
- I got to listen to them go through the same debug script, regardless how many times I told them this has been done multiple times already
- I got hung up on twice
- I was told that they needed to research the problem and get back to me in 24 hrs.. 3 days later nothing and no ticked on my acct.
I had to go to the Xfinity store to get a technician appt. as the phone non-help kept giving the run around
1st technician checked all connections, replaced the splitter, replaced the coax, replaced the cable box (again)
- This worked for less than a week before the issues came back
More phone tree [Edited: "Language"].. was able to get another technician
- This technician did not root cause the issue but replaced with wireless cable boxes - this also worked for about a week before issues came back
- I even attached via Ethernet cable to rule out wifi signal strength.. no good.
Now I'm here.. I'm not getting back on the phone tree [Edited: "Language"].. There is something wrong with my account and it seems like when there is some system refresh, I'm back to broken. This does not appear to be a hardware issue but something server side which you can't or won't figure out.
I give! I've been doing my part and paying my bills, when do I get someone to actually fix my issue and provide the serve I'm paying for? Seems a tad like fraud to me.

The concern is not related to Xfinity Compliments................... Topic moved here to the proper help section, and for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.
