Don't get uverse unless you live in a Walmart or something. They sell you the decent internet package and then it craps out all the time and the fix it guy comes out and tells you that because you're more than 1000 feet from the signal box you can only get 1994 dialup as the fastest speed but they promise things will be fixed by 2020
There should be a class action against them

Neighbor across the street has it with no complaints so I feel I'm ok with what services I'm getting
Already got the number for customer claims for the wall patch

Did we only get your side of the story, Mr. Engineer?
Posted on 1/9/17 at 2:11 pm to Mr. Hangover
Well the other side involves a lot of "this mother fricker"

Well, maybe you are a motherfricker 
Seriously though, I'd ask him to leave and get another technician... if I were bold enough to call you a motherfricker I'd probably also be bold enough to steal from you and not GAF...
And don't say that you're gonna follow him and watch him, if he wants something bad enough, he'll take it

Just wait til you pay for the good package and it cuts out all the time
Then you call them and they send the guy out in the Prius and cargo shorts who tells you nothing's wrong with your internet
Then you call again and they send the guy with the bucket truck and he tells you that the Prius guy oversold you on Internet and the reason it keeps going out is because they're trying to run too much signal through the 100 year old wire att uses and that the closest signal box is more than a mile away and the only way to make the Internet work consistently is to downgrade you to the slowest speed

He's outside cursing you out on the phone. You're doing play by play of your argument on an internet message board. Sounds like an all around classy affair.

if you want pro work, you should have hired pros, not ATT.
Any normal A/V installer should be able to get the job done correctly, just find one that will do the work you want.

The only issue I had with cox is my bill steadily went from $85 to $150 over the course of four years with no changes to my (TV) package
Posted on 1/9/17 at 2:21 pm to StrongBackWeakMind
It takes them months to get anything done but it's pretty consistent once you have it
Posted on 1/9/17 at 2:21 pm to Mr. Hangover
They do continually raise prices, but I think that's common with all internet companies.

You expect an engineer to show his knuckles??
No way, he'll just think about it for six hours then tell a contractor how to fight safely then sick him on the ATT guy
Posted on 1/9/17 at 2:22 pm to StrongBackWeakMind
Tbh I never had that problem with ATT.. their customer service was also great (AT&T)

happened to me enough that i finally said the hell with this cheaper internet and now i pay Cox $70/mth for reliable fast internet.
I used to get kicked off my VPN all the time on my work computer with AT&shite. Never happens with Cox. And i have never been a fan of Cox.
