Re: Help needed getting comcast service

so you guys are saying that if i live a half mile off the road comcast is responsible for all the contruction costs. dont think so, comcast costs wont go over three thousand dollars at the most. subs responsible for the rest or just dont get the service. when it was suburban around here anything that required rg11 or over like 100 feet from the road the sub had to pay for

Hi Lystell , welcome to the BBR Comcast Forum!

The cable is in my area and as a matter of a fact I can look out my front window and see the cable on the pole that is in front of my house.
They've got to go just a bit more than 100' now rody_4O . If the drop will be 125 ft or less, the cable company has to install within 7 days, according to the FCC.
said by FCC Fact Sheet - CABLE TELEVISION INFORMATION BULLETIN:
Installations, Service Interruptions and Service Calls

Federal guidelines state that standard installations -- which are those located up to 125 feet from the existing distribution system -- must be performed within seven days after an order has been placed.
