Cable Card pairing, HORRIBLE support, no action for days...

I received a new cable card for my HDHome Run on Friday.. after 10, yes TEN, different representatives on the phone. The person insisted it was set up correctly and asked me to disconnect before the channel scan was done. Guess want? It is not set up correctly.

The issue is I can only see local channels, identical to what this person experienced: https://www.reddit.com/r/PleX/comments/f0cyux/some_cablecard_issues_with_comcast_any_advice/

I called back. over and over and over... Finally, I got a Tier 3 ticket made.. promising me a call back within 2 hrs...nope.. no callback.. I contacted Comcast on Twitter I was told, "Please wait awhile.".. for the past 3 days they have told me there is no update on my ticket.. consistently telling me I'm important and I should "rest assured" someone is working on it..

Please look into [Edited - Private details] and have someone call me ASAP, I shouldn't have to wait days and days for a support ticket..

I get it; not many people use cable cards, but for those that do, please provide good support so that we are treated properly for the issues we run into.

After hours of chatting w/your team on Reddit we got it working. For those that may run across this in the future, work w/the reddit team, they worked tirelessly to get me going. Also ensure your HDHomeRun is set for us-hrc
