Hey big guy...you're the one getting hosed by moderators.
If you would have read (I know how hard it is for you being a troll and all) then you'd know that mod spiting me had nothing to do with me posting anything.
BTW, I've been taken off whatever I was on. My posts show up instantly again. |

I think some Mod put me on some kind of watch list to spite me. I reported a post that had vulgar language in it and this mod IMED saying it was A-Ok for posters to use vulgar language and I got on his case about it, the entire thread was removed (although just editing the subject line would have been sufficient) the next day (probably by a real mod) but I'm assuming he put me on this watch list where my posts have to be read by the human eye before showing up on the boards. That last post didn't show up for over two hours and I had made 3 other posts that did show up before it so I thought it wasn't going to show up at all. I logged out and posted it anonymous and it showed up instantly. |

Oh my...such bad feelings abound...boo hoo. Facts are facts...and the fact is ATTBi is taking on more customers without spending the increased pennies to support them. Period. You can shill for them all you want but your continuous spin and fiction can't rewrite history. Still waiting for you to dispute ATTB's financial statements? You are quick to deflect the topic...just like your tangent about me not having Cox access which was obviously a lie on your part.
Maybe your obvious failure to do any shread of research is the source of your problem...or a more likely story...you are a shill...plain and simple...and to you ATTBi can do no wrong and anyone who tells the TRUTH about ATTBi is a big meanie.

Leave the investigative reporting for the experts. The only people that are going to buy into your slander that you call fact is more AT&T Broadband haters. |

Some if not most will probably be laid off as what the whole point of a merger is...limiting resources while controlling a larger market share. ATTB has already shown itself to freeze customer service spending while letting their customer base expand. There is no reason to believe that Comcast people (or what's left of them) will bring a change to that anti-consumer philosophy. ATTB will continue to freeze support spending while bringing in a massive amount of new customers.

You think its bad now and cant get any worse lol? You need to click your heels again and maybe youll leave Kansas! No offense man but ATT customer service is crap now and Comcasts is even worse. So it will get worse. Prices will go up. Connection will stay the same.
The merger won't magically change customer service so it will be worse. During and after the merger the same old phone support people will be taking our calls just as they do now with AT&T. They will just be working under Comcast instead of AT&T Broadband. I don't know about prices, they may go up, right now competition is $50 so Cable will stay around $50. And as competition offers faster speeds so will cable. Right now Cable blows most competition away + with all the file sharers taxing many nodes around the country there is no reason for them to offer faster speeds. |

first off im gonna tell ya a little bit about some of the crap attbi has pulled in my area since they bought mediaone.
one of my freinds has had cable service since it was first available here and the prices have been hiked yearly since.
so here what attbi does here and you can tell me if you deem this a worthy company to fight for. id rather see the ship sink and another company pull to the bow and take the customers and SOME of the workers.
ok we start analyzing now 4 price increases in 4 years.
First was from 29.95 to 35.95 this was renting a modem from them. Second was 35.95 to 41.95 then to 45.95 now to 49.95 ohhh not bad you say because you got the modem. Well yeah let's see i bought me a modem to knock off $10 dropped me to 39.95 for all of 4 months.... hey no surprise im paying 46.95 now compared to the 42.95 for people who don't own the modem. Wow seems like i got myself a hell of a deal.
Second Tangent Where i live weekly and i do mean weekly our cable service goes down for a day or so. attbi knows of the issue and has yet to fix it. same problem every time a truck takes out a damn node down the road. you figure one tech would move the node from the low hanging position to a spot away from the low wire.
hey amazing all this money to go towards upgrades i have yet to hit my cap consistantly. sure once a month at 180 k a sec is great try using linux and developing open source when you do it for free on your time just to be pissed when attbi goes down and you can't upload 5 or 6 days of work. yeah i hear it just wait a couple days till it's back up. should i really have to wait as it was sold to me always on and reliable. besides this code is helping many and having some one reinvent your wheel is a useless waste of time.
this has been my experience with attbi since i moved and also since my freind has lived in this area. i find it quite amuzing when you harp about how good attbi is when you don't see the trouble spots. i also find it amuzing when people harp about the crappy parts of the network because they have never seen a stable connection. my amuzement with the bad connection is that of i just gotta laugh because it happens to me here also and i know it sucks.
Guys 2 sides to every story. The attbi books probably lie just like enron and most of the others. if they do put out money for upgrades id like my area added to the list. it's pretty bad when you call and the person you talk to 9 times out of 10 knows your voice and name.
AFTER ALL THAT I SAY SINK THE DAMN SHIP AND DON'T THROW LIFESAVERS TO THE EXEC's AND MANAGERS WHO ARE RUNNING IT INTO THE GROUND.

I too was a attbi hater but now with this new service my connection is to slow to complain ... |

"Just because a company is big doesn't mean they can't offer good customer service. Just as a company being small doesn't mean they will offer good customer service. Look at em now, they haven't even merged yet and they already offer horid customer service, it can only get better."
You think its bad now and cant get any worse lol? You need to click your heels again and maybe youll leave Kansas! No offense man but ATT customer service is crap now and Comcasts is even worse. So it will get worse. Prices will go up. Connection will stay the same.

"Actually Comcast did all of its upgrades in our area without a (recent) fee hike. The only thing they charge you for if you get broadband is if you have a "professional installation." I believe that is $50 if you do that.
What amazes me the most is that ATTBI and Comcast are both able to charge the exact same amount for broadband in most of their markets, even though some customers cost a lot more to hook up than others. I'm sure if I had to pay the "full cost" of my connection, it'd be a helluva lot more than I am currently paying!"
Ya there was no pay hike in my area either.
"Lameass, I don't claim to have Cox HSI...just access to it. Before flapping your mouth off go to the speed test archive for zip 92883 AS I HAD STATED PREVIOUSLY. Oh yeah...your head is too far up your ass to actually bother reading the thread."
LOL, I apologize. I read but I'm not gonna do everything you ask.

$42 is not reasonable and is overpriced when compared to ATTBi cable peers.
Pretty funny statement when you take in account that most cable broadband providers charge more then that. Yes even Cox (though not in all markets) and Roadrunner.
Also, you claim to have Cox yet it clearly shows in this thread »How close is close that you don't have a Cable connection and you're waiting for ATTBI to "roll out' in your area. And your profile clearly says your claimed ISP is Unplugged/Coastinet, NOT Cox plus you've made two reviews »/allrevi···p=,92883 two reviews that aren't reviewing Cox.
Clearly you don't have Cox cable so this statement "As for Cox speeds, I get consistent 3Mb speeds from Cox OC" is a lie. You don't get those speeds because you don't got Cox cable. If you can't get this right why should anything you say be taken seriously? We might aswell assume everything you type is a lie. And you sure do bash ATTB alot for someone who is eagerly awaiting their services. Clearly you are a troll and anyone that thinks you aren't is lying to themselves.
