MLB extra innings freeze

This has been horrible this year. Chatted back and forth with a completely unhelpful rep. They said they were going to do a system refresh and let them know if it worked. It didn’t. They said they could send out a tech if it didn’t work. I don’t have time to be on the phone with another clueless rep. It’s not a box issue. It’s not a cable or hardware issue. It’s the way Xfinity is working (or not working) with MLB Extra Innings.

The only reason we stay w/cable is for this package.

Same for me - been about a week now that this is happening! And of course the last freeze was just as a home run was being hit at a crucial part of the game!

Same for me. Just trying to watch the Reds game and random freezes for a few seconds. Been that way for at least a few days now. Guess it isn't just me then. Maybe Xfinity should actually read these and respond?

Thank you for reaching out to us @Avrizic! For troubleshooting purposes is this happening on other sports games included with MLB Extra Innings or is it only happening on Reds games? Have you noticed if this is happening on multiple devices?

Bear with me - texted with someone AGAIN because I’m a glutton for punishment and I don’t have time to be on the phone.

Nice guy - made me go through the whole turn off/on blah blah. Said he would escalate it. I get this phone call in the middle of the texting from this guy named John. I would have had more luck talking to a rock. He sends me a text to confirm who I am. I don’t get it. He sends it again. I don’t get it. I tell him to send it to my email. I get it. He then goes on and on about making sure I can text messages. I tell him I got them earlier in the week - can we just move along this has nothing to do with texts.

I repeat - for the 93rd time - the issue. He starts with the troubleshooting speech. I say look - it’s happening to other customers - it’s not an issue with my hardware. He’s like - well if you don’t want to go through the reset then we can’t help you. I . Lost . My Mind. I asked for a supervisor - which of course there was none - I was told to call and ask for the Loyalty department.

Recommendation - call and ask for the Loyalty Department - don’t waste your time posting here or calling and going through customer service. No one clearly reads any of these posts. I was way too exasperated to do it today, but I’m calling tomorrow after work.
