Arguing with AT&T U-Verse install guy
Posted on 1/9/17 at 1:39 pm

Decided to pony up the $99 to get this shite done right and hidden with my coaxial cables. Next thing I know a hole pops up out of my wall 3' from where I want it and no longer hidden by the entertainment center
Guy claims that he can't get it in the junction box with the direct TV because he can't drill through the stud
I'm pissed and don't want this shite visible but am running out of arguing power

They aren't gonna go through a stud man. Get over it

If you want something done right, do it yourself. The end.

Why can't he drill through a stud? What installer doesn't have a cable pull drill bit?

Tell him your a goddamn licensed engineer and he will drill through whatever the frick you tell him to. Then nut on your stamp and slap it on his forehead.

No clue. Theres a damn outlet 4' from the ceiling that runs to the bottom. This shite is set up to fricking run it where you can't see cables

Even so, why are the only options through the stud, or 3 feet out? Studs are 3 feet wide.

So, the idiot dropped the cable down in the wrong spot between the studs in the attic?

Should have called the geek squad.

drill through what stud?
He had to have drilled through something in the attic. Sounds like he drilled his hole a few inches in the wrong direction and is too lazy to go back up there and do it again to match up where you want it.
The guy that installed my DTV 2 years ago did a much shittier and lazier job than what you are describing.

He piggy backed with a coaxial that shares a wall in another room.

That's b/c he's lazy, and wants to get to his next job.

Next time find an Oscar, they always seem to do the job how you want it.

Call AT&T and bitch at them. If they balk cancel the service.
