Answer to Gary's post of his answer to me

AB vrs Comcast

This post is in reply to Bob Rivera's remarks.

What would you expect when you are complaining about the Comcast complainers. There is no else here. Comcast is the only provider we have and if something goes wrong or is not right, then we complain.

What would you expect when you look at AB and see that they are still in Miami somewhere and still have to start trenching. It somewhat dangerous to sign a contract, a 10-year contract before they are here and ready to go.

I have Comcast, of course. I have Comcast's DVR, it is always 90% full, no problem. I have all the channels Comcast provides with my plan. So what? I only watch maybe a dozen of them. I have 2 movie channels, I only watch one of them, HBO, so what?

What could I possibly do with 300 channels, 1/2 of them Spanish? (and still in Miami)

As far as complaining is concerned, I will still reserve the right to complain no matter what.

Gary, If you pay attention to the CSI owner Leo Delgado, the channels will not be Miami stations, but local. as far as your 1/2 of them Spanish, that's starting to sound pretty racist. Century Village has a growing Spanish speaking population. Many from Puerto Rico, Cuba, Spain, Argentina, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic and other Spanish speaking countries. We have a growing Black population also, some from Caribbean island countries, others from other states and Canada. If you have a problem with that, then maybe you should consider someplace slightly more in tune with that way of thinking, they may even provide the white sheets for your bed or whatever...
As far as the original subject on hand, the trenching needed from Miami would be completed before the contract comes into effect, so what is the problem? We have almost two year left on the contract with Comcast, they are not offering a decrease in their charges, they don't have as many channels, they don't offer FREE service calls. What they DO offer is to start at the same amount that we are paying today. A "wire" check for free, so they will come into your house look at the wires, probably say, oh they're okay, and later CHARGE you when you have any kind of problem. 
Atlantic Broadband says they will provide FREE Maintenance. They will have someone IN THE VILLAGE whenever you have a problem, not just a call center that will put you on hold and schedule a truck to come out (for a price of course). In case you don't want to admit it, or maybe are unaware, there are many in the village that have issues with simple things, like hitting the wrong button on their remote and now their tv is on channel off and they don't get their program. Sounds like a simple fix, right? they call Comcast and rather than explain over the phone, they send a truck. Cha-ching! They take advantage of the elderly and technology-challenged. My aunt was one of those people before she moved out of the village. I would get 3 or 4 calls a week. Comcast would also get called by her if I was not available, AND THEY CHARGED $75 each time. So, no, comcast is not my choice, especially when there is a much better choice on the horizon.
