Deleted recordings

[themamabird56]

Comcast has deleted 86 of my approximate 110 hours of recordings without my permission. The DVR stopped working and I had to get another. The DVR that stopped working stated it was about 90% full. I have tried to deal with Comcast's terrible Customer Service to no avail. I have even contacted the Consumer Dept. of a local tv station but have not received a response yet regarding my complaint. I just want my recordings back without having to re-record them. I can see the titles on the TV Remote App but am unable to watch them. I am so frustrated and angry!!!

When you swap the dvr, you’ll only have access to the last 60 hours recorded(eventually increasing to 150), regardless of what the percentage was. And as you record new shows the others will drop and disappear. Nothing dastardly, just how the cloud dvr works

Absolutely ridiculous! I should be able to keep ALL of my recordings as long as I do not exceed my max percentage!

I was just giving you an explanation why. Keeping all your recordings over a limit is not how cloud recordings work, it’s good that they’re upping the limit. Your old recordings are gone for good

Thank you. I am not upset with you. It just isn't right when I did not have a choice when my DVR stopped working that my recordings were deleted without my permission.
