Greeetings,

Its been 2 years since I have seen this, but needless to say If you are a high downloader, you will be getting a call or letter soon.

I got a call from some not so intelligent Comcast employee today. Regarding network abuse. Now I have the Pro Account $95/mo for 6MB/768K I believe the speeds are. Anyways, I dealt with this little issue about 2 years ago. I had gotten a call from the same $5.75/hr person. Saying the samething, too much usage, can't tell ya how much nor can I tell what is a reasonable limit.

Now 2 years ago when I called my local office (best advice, i will be doing this Monday) Locals advised me that I needed the Pro Account, so I signed up for it and maintained my usage. My usage hasn't changed much, yet Today, I got the call.

here is my page I was posting notes 2 years ago on, and now have updated with latest.

I looked for topics on this before posting, looks like I may be the first one to get nailed.

Unbelievable!

I know Comcast monitors or employees do. Would it be so hard to hire someone to make these calls, with half a brian and could advise me on what type of account I need if I wish to continue my currect usage?

1. I call BS

2. If you have the Pro Account, you need to call sales/service. Pro account is being phased out. Pro account is not offered anymore,you can get the same speeds for 42.95 if you have TV also. Plus if you need the 4 IP's that's only 6.95 x 4 = 27.80 + 42.95 = 70.75, cheaper.

3. I have downloaded many things from Usenet (therefore get my full speed) constantly everyday for the months on end, and haven't gotten a "letter".

4. Comcast takes care of their employees from what my buddy tells me. They keep 95% of their call centers in the US. They make much more than 5.75. What do you make?

5. "I know Comcast monitors or employees do. Would it be so hard to hire someone to make these calls, with half a brian and could advise me on what type of account I need if I wish to continue my currect usage?"

5a. What do you mean? You ask if someone with half a BRIAN (I think you meant brain) can call you. I think they have.
