Yeah, I'm getting a ton of comcast mailings. I got the dreaded over use call 3 months ago from comcast threatening me to stop using too much. I'm a computer technician and frequently fix pcs. I left a pc I was fixing plugged into my other network over thanksgiving weekend that was infected and apparently the thing was spewing 10's of thousands of emails. I guess I'm on their s*** list now. Got a call telling me I'd be terminated for 1 year if it happened again. I've been on their high speed internet for 8 years. So much for customer loyalty.

Needless to say, I can't wait to switch. The faster uploads will be insane for gaming and remote access.
I hear you. They actually contacted me first about my service not working properly. My modem was timing out 30 times per hour on average, and I had poor speeds. In order to download weather files I wanted, it would have to do it many times over to try to get 1 copy to complete. After they fixed it, I got a nasty phone call from them (you can't imagine), and even their corporate office did not care that their service malfunction had a lot to do with it. The details of what happened after that, I'll leave to myself, and the reports I filed. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20158012 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 10:26:15 EDT Re: FIOS Has Begun Being Run in North Middletown http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20157908 winterstech : Yeah, I'm getting a ton of comcast mailings.

However, based on the 2-3 mailers I get from Comcast EACH DAY, I am guessing he isn't far off. Comcast is going all out to get customers prior to FIOS going live in the area.

But you'll see once installation gets closer to being available you'll start seeing tons of FiOS trucks in your area just adding to your anticipation.. I even went over to my Comcast cable box and told it that its days were numbered (a little dramatic but I HATED Comcast) and then you'll get a glorious letter telling you it's available..
