I give out only good referrals, and in this case, I cannot give you a recommnedation.

I never thought that being without tv would be this easy. The first time I did it for seven years and the first three months were rather tough. Since I ditched the cable over two weeks ago,I had not even thought about not having it until now, and it was only a thought, not a craving.

Same here, I have watched a few good movies, but otherwise the idiot box lies dormant. No more incessant screaming about the latest greatest sonic toothbrush, or eight-bladed facial razor. No withdrawals at all.

I like to irritate Rapunzel and tell her I have 'basic cable':ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS and the New Orleans version of Beach TV as well as some Christian station that must make Jesus shudder. I seem to survive, and if my 'cable goes out' I just wrap a little foil on the rabbit ears:lol:

Just had to speak to the mediacon man who left another large orange cable in the yard to be mowed around. :eek: At first he was explaining to me that if it gets cut they will charge us and our yard company to repair but he won't bury it because it's longer than 80 ft. and:roll: he is backed up. He began to explain that only after Hubbabubba appeared. He apologized for starting off wrong with me and went on to explain he put in an RFB:dunno: ,I think the letters were, a burial request in regular talk. :blush: It will be buried in 10 days. :funn: Mediacon stinks and is rude especially to women before their husbands show up. :blink:

Sorry i didn't bother to read the 600 other posts about mediacom. Anyting i say here cannot and will not be held against me. I HATE MEDIACOM. It seems they have spies that figure out what show you have been waiting months to watch and then when it starts they turn the audio off. I can just feel them laughing. Also i have cable and satellite because MEDIACOM will not allow to get networks through satellite. I can't believe i need their permission. If anyone know how to get around this PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

I have been trying to switch Mediacom over to my new house for more than a week. I have called Mediacom ten times, and every time the same thing happens. I hold for 20-45 minutes. I get a representative on the line. I explain that I am moving and would like my service transferred to the new house. The representative takes the new address. I am put on hold. The hold music plays for a few minutes. The call is dropped. Ten times. Same thing every time.

Finally, in desparation, I used the "Contact Us" online form to report the repeated dropped calls and to explain my issue and request a change of service. I left both phone numbers. The site promises a response within 24 hours. I have had no response after 48.

Is there a local Mediacom office where I can return this cable box and modem and be done with it? I give up.

My version of basic cable is in your future?:wave:
