I’m located on the east side of downtown Houston, and despite having power since 7/10 (the hurricane hit 7/8), I still have not heard a peep from Xfinity about when internet will be restored.

I have missed 3 days of work because I have been scheduled to have a home security installation, the first time I was confirmed that same day they would come, I waited and no one came then they said it was because a service needed to be canceled to start a new one.
