I got an ad in the mail from Comcast offering Blast Internet for an extra $10/month.
I call the number & the person takes 15 minutes to "locate" the offer.
The person says "Blast +" for $25 extra.
I say no.
Blast for $10/month.
Put on hold........
She says, "I finally found it."
$10 extra/month.
All this time I have the written ad right in front of me.
This deliberate attempt to make me buy a service I don't want annoys me.
I finally get the Blast {up to 25 Mbs/second---bits not bytes} service I want.
I ran a speed test.
My service was about doubled from 1.4 Mbs/second to about 2.85 Mbs/second.
Nowhere near 25 Mbs/second.
I can live with it.
But it makes me sad that Comcast is such an ***hole when it comes to honesty & giving real value to their customers.
I take full responsibility for this post.
Comcast---- If you want to sue me, help yourself.
You are money hungry pigs, in my opinion.
