USA | Re: WOW are a Bunch of Morons Regarding LNP Have you called WOW yet? I'd sooner believe them then what some Comcast rep told you. It's more likely Comcast is taking their sweet time and is just trying to pass the blame. | |

I'd blame Comcast on this one. | |

Utica, MI | Re: WOW are a Bunch of Morons Regarding LNP I agree. I'd be willing to bet the Comcast reps are the inept ones and can't figure out how to port the number. | |

2 edits | Re: WOW are a Bunch of Morons Regarding LNP I talked to both companies LNP departments. WOW themselves told me that they want 7 days but will do it in six for me. I talked to a supervisor at WOW's LNP department and she herself entered the port information while I was on the phone with her. She was the one that told me it would take until the 9th as the earliest date when things could be ported over. The 10th is when they are sending someone to collect their equipment. When I asked if it could be done sooner, she said no. She wasn't mean about it, but said it couldn't be done.
Comcast had in their notes that WOW hadn't acknowledged the transfer request and WOW told CC that 5 days was too fast. I called CC back after my talk with the WOW LNP people (WOW requested that I do that and have CC resubmit the request since my number was now set up as a "port out"). The CC person had me on hold and immediately contacted WOW to set up the port and get a confirmation number. She then told me that the WOW person told her that it takes that long because they have to close out their billing, etc.
Both sets of facts reconcile. WOW's just slow as molasses in Alaska in February for some reason. | |

Naperville, IL | Re: WOW are a Bunch of Morons Regarding LNP Thanks for the interesting info. So, Sigecom is simply a dba for WOW.
My phone number is 630-355-xxxx, but it isn't listed in the telcodata.us site you listed directly above. It was in the links you put a few messages above. | |

1 edit | Re: WOW are a Bunch of Morons Regarding LNP I'm not a big fan of the standard VoIP services. I don't like the thought of having to deal with QoS issues and the like. WOW and CC phone are more along the likes of what I prefer, even though those are VoIP as well.
That being said, as my kids are getting older, I'm not as concerned about the E911 issues, so VoIP may be something I consider in the future. Definitely WOW and CC are not nomadic. | |

| I had the same issue. Was porting my number from WOW to Comcast. I had 2 earlier installs canceled due to number not getting ported in time. So for the third attempt I contacted WOW to help push along the port. Speaking with a chatty rep I found they are too swamped with number ports and it is taking 7-8 business days to complete.
Same story I would get when I had service issues, would take them a week to come out to troubleshoot/fix.
Soooo looking forward to moving on to bigger & better pastures. Sure, WOW was cheaper, but their service is completely behind all the competition. Things like smaller selection of HD channels, sporadic internet speeds, ON Demand offerings are pathetic, no NFL network games, no CSN, the guide channel design looks like computer designs from 10 yrs ago, and their DVR service lacks (can't record a shows unless it appears within the 1 week Guide listing.)
With Comcast recent promotions, WOW's edge on pricing is no longer. No reason left to stay. | |
