Caught in Comcast's gearsThursday, June 12, 2008 by Dave Winer. Another Comcast user is nabbed for using too much of their service (top tenth of one percent). He doesn't use Twitter so he doesn't know how to get a human being in the loop. Hopefully this post will do the job. They still have Nazis running customer service at Comcast. They really need to take a look at how they treat their customers. One of these days the customers are going to start caring and might even have choices. |
