When will ABC stations be reinstated?

Please find a way to reinstate a standard and significant national station, ABC. Come to a compromise and decrease your profit a bit. I am a 40+ year subscriber (that might be a record). I and other subscribers have paid top dollar to get your services with regular and recent cost increases. The least you can do is restore ABC.

I see that it’s mostly minor stations that are affected in other areas which decreases the chance you will fix this as the other programming is not strongly viewed yet ABC and until recently CBS (before takeover) have been part of the original three or four networks from the 1950s. Take leadership, and do what is right for your subscribers if you want to keep them. Let us know asap so we can begin making plans to switch carriers if need be. 

You need to figure out how to get scripps back and not raise prices. If not, I will drop Xfinity and find another platform. It is not reasonable to drop a major channel everyone relies on. 

That was my question when the show went off and I contacted them. All they said is they’d give me a one time $20 credit! I was like I need a credit for every month we are without these channels seeing as we pay so much already!

I pay so much for comcast service and this is what I get. Get it done immediately or I am changing to Verizon. And as for getting an antennae im already paying over 300$  and u think ill pay more for your greed forget it .  This whole thing is as childish as 2 three yr olds.  Grow up!!!

@user_k2cf36, We understand how frustrating unexpected programming changes can be, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We hope that we can reach an agreement with the network soon and improve your experience.

Who and how do I co tact Comcast to get a refund 

Hello user_s8771i thank you so much for reaching out here and sharing your concerns here regarding the E.W. Scripps Carrier Agreement Expiration. Please know we pay programmers to bring you the entertainment you love, and a number of reasonable offers have been made and they haven’t been accepted. Comcast is working toward bringing back this programming, but only with fair pricing, terms, and conditions for customers. I know unexpected changes to your TV lineup can be frustrating, and I apologize for any inconvenience. For more information, visit https://www.xfinity.com/programmingchanges. 

@cs3773 thanks for taking the time to post on our Xfinity Communities Forums page. I understand that sudden programing changes can be difficult and frustrating. Most of the channels that we offer are owned by media companies other than Comcast, which means we need to pay those companies in order to bring their channels to our customers. We negotiate contracts with these media companies to obtain the rights to carry their channels, on-demand content, and streaming apps on our platforms. Comcast has successfully renegotiated thousands of expiring contracts over the years and rarely experienced an interruption of service. For more information on how we work with programmers, visit How It Works.

Eliminating our programs is doing more harm than good for comcast. You say you're losing customers then do something stupid to guarantee losing customers.  🤬

@cs3773​ 

Thanks for the heads up! I'll reach out to Scripts 

@cs3773​ Yep,they are not providing a service we are paying for.

@user_662pfy  Thanks for reaching out regarding ABC. We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you, and we ask for your patience while we work diligently to resolve this matter. While you are waiting, we welcome you to enjoy any of the other local channels available to you for entertainment.  For additional information, you can visit: Programming Changes

@user_662pfy​ 

That's awful!   We are close to $200, and that is way too much!   We are seniors also!   Fixed income.  Too darn much to watch TV!  

PS.  We love ABC News, and want it back!  If I have to jump companies, so be it.  

I’m a senior also and basically ABC has ALL the shows I watch! I am new to Denver Colorado area, and live alone and have no idea of what other companies to use, Comcast is the absolute worst company ever! So frustrating and beyond annoyed 

Hello, @user_1urfja We are not providing credits at this time. If a new agreement with E. W. Scripps, the owner of these broadcast stations is not reached, the impact on current or future charges will be evaluated.

@user_1urfja​ I to am going to change to AT & T fiber this coming weekend??!
