I am not paying Xfinity to get a Yahoo email address! I don't want Yahoo.

Been with Comcast since the mid 90s. Never dropped service, never jumped to another provider. I currently only have internet and I am happy with it. Leave it alone.

I had Yahoo like most people my age back in the day and I do not see why I am paying Comcast in order to use Yahoo email. 

Plenty of things Comcast can work on to make our experience better but this is not one of them. 

Stop it. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be on the lawn yelling at clouds.

You're not getting a Yahoo email address.  You keep your comcast.net email, but you go to https://mail.yahoo.com to sign in with your comcast.net credentials.

I appreciate the reply but that is not technically true. It may say @comcast.net, but it will be on Yahoo servers with Yahoo rules and as reported, Yahoo ads not to mention Yahoos lack of support. As I said, I and others my age used Yahoo free emails back before Google was even a thing so I am not thrilled at all for this "upgrade", which it is not.

Maybe I'm wrong but looks like Comcast is just cutting services to cut costs. How many employees will lose jobs from this move? Will our rates decrease due to less services? 

None of this passes the smell test.

Again, not pointing this at you personally.
