    what RA said, it's a good idea to see if you can put it under a new name, you'll count as a "new customer" and can get better deals

    or just threaten to drop your service, ask for the customer retention department, and argue your way to a better deal, and then repeat every year....but as a new customer it'll usually be good for 2 years to save yourself the headache

    It would be easier to go to https://www.reddit.com/r/Comcast_Xfinity/ and get them to help you instead. It is the best way to get help with your comcast account lol

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling an older version, didn't work. If you figure out what the issue is PLEASE let me know. It's like with happened with the JLos a couple of weeks ago. Don't know if it's a script or the version of Chrome itself.

    Meh, maybe. I need it set up stat though for dayjob. And I don't want any issues.

    Yeah, I've done that before. I think I'm just getting old and lazy and never want to talk to people anymore.

    "$100/mo for 260/15, regular cable, and HBO/Showtime? I'll just keep that. Don't want them to notice they've never charged me for HBO or Showtime since it was free with my welcome package... 7 years ago."

    I've tried this, but it didn't work. Maybe they knew I was faking, because even with the slow speeds I get, there's no other option in my area that is as good as or better.

    You can pay Billshark to do this for you. They get 40% of your 12 month savings up front though. I did it with my Time Warner bill and I'm still saving $20/month 2 years later.

    Yeah, I'm moving 25 minutes away from here. Still in the same area-ish, won't be as close to the airport anymore though.
