Is anyone else in the Philly area seeing pixellation again on the HD channels (Food, MHD, etc.)
I saw it briefly last night - and am seeing it again tonight.

Here we go again.
I'm opening a ticket with Live Chat right now. Can the two of you possibly do the same?? My ticket is DEDQ724573 if you want to reference it.
Looks like more Philly VHO problems.

Jeep, I haven't had a chance to look, but if so this is great news !!!
They'll swap the offending board with the one that does NOT have the Picture Quality problems for the rest of the week, and we can have a nice week of excellent TV to watch for a change.

Noticed some tiling and other issues on some SD channels late this afternoon, don't know if anyone else has experienced that...

| Sorry NoPing. 
Are you guys seeing it anywhere else? I just saw it on HDNet as well.
PS - apparently the Phils are in HD tonight even though they are on the road.

I recently had some tiling problems in my shower, a little grout and some silicone caulk fixed it up real quick
Noping, anyway, your talking to JeepMatt, he's in DE.
It's Delmarva Power not PECO.

Someone needs to get JWhip to call Mark Cuban and tell him that Verizon is making his network look bad.

Sorry, just quoting a BS line Verizon fed me to pass the buck, thought JeepMatt would remember it. Any complaints that I would make by calling in (or using Live Chat, or »/forum/vzdirect) would fall on deaf ears...
said by JeepMatt :Are you guys seeing it anywhere else? Little one just said that she saw something on Nick (222) a few minutes ago - didn't see it for myself. This seems oddly familiar... |

| I got your joke Noping.
But, anyone reading this seeing this problem, PLEASE report it. I don't want to have this drag on for 4 days like last time just b/c it took that long to have a "group" ticket.
THANKS!

Noping, no problem. lol
Verizon fed me that one last week, my phone, TV, and Internet were all out.
The power light on the BBU was on, all the lights on the ONT were on, my wife had the washer running, and the Central Air was chill'in nicely. My power was on.
The dumba$$ FSC rep cold not be convinced that I was not experiencing a power outage, it had to be a power outage, no way it could be a Verizon problem.
The guy actually tells me that the Diagnostics on the ONT indicate a power outage.
I must commend them for at least trying to blame others, when it's clearly their fault.
If theres an effin Power Outage, how are you reading the ONT diagnostics, I asked????
Oh, well maybe it's a power outage at the CO then. OK, the CO is out, again, HOW ARE YOU READING THE ONT DIAGNOSTICS??? DUH 
IF you are familiar with the West Chester CO,
North East of the West Chester U campus, on High Street, across from the Burger King @ Price Street,
you would know that that CO is sitting on enough Battery and Diesel Generators to power all of West Chester.
I doubt they have had a power outage there in decades, the building is built as a Fallout Shelter.

| I also opened a thread in the Direct forum here - and Joe (who's sitting in for Gustavo this week) replied that they do see the breakup at the NOC. And they will contact the Philly VHO (if necessary).
So wow - we're verified on the first try!
I have to say, Joe, who like i said is sitting in for Gustavo this week, is one hell of a representative. Quick, precise answers to any of your questions.
VZ - you have two great employees in Joe and Gustavo working here.

Wilmington, DE | Just flipped off the Phils game - Starz HD - within 5 seconds - tiling.
Ugh...
What the Philly VHO is made up of is beyond me.

| Winstoda-
now it's a good Phils score!
PS - CSN HD has been fine all evening. Whenever there's an issue with tiling, it never seems to affect CSN HD.

Since it's owned by the competition, why would they want to furnish VZ with a watchable picture quality????

1 edit | Well, in true VZ fashion - obviously NOTHING was done overnight to address the tiling and breakup out of Philadelphia - which they did acknowledge seeing last night.
I woke up this morning and within 10 seconds saw tiling and audio loss on Starz HD, and again on Food HD.
This is becoming rediculous. It follows the same pattern - starts briefly Sunday, progressively gets worse Monday / Tuesday - finally by Wednesday enough people finally get sick of it - they'll try and fix it Wed night - only not to...and so on...
3rd time in 4 months Verizon.
