I have been with this cable company for pretty much 13 years. And other than an internet connectivity problem I had last year when I moved, I have never had a problem with them...
...until the past two weeks. I passed along the DVR story last week... I have ANOTHER problem this week.
As you know, I am a Carolina Hurricanes hockey fan. A hockey fan in the state of Alabama is about as rare as Soprano and Moose getting along for an entire day. Solly praising Guillermo Mota. The Cubs wi... never mind, not gonna piss off the boss. Anyway, after much hassle and calling the local office and finally hitting up the tech department up in the Birmingham office, dude called me middle of last week and had me set up and I was able to catch the Canes/Habs game on Saturday, rather than listen to the radio call on NHL.com. Caught some games over the weekend and Monday night.
Get home from school late Tuesday night, went to catch the end of the Minnesota/L.A. game... and nothing. Everything's back out. "Subscription only" or whatever the error message is. Same thing for last night's slate of games. So I call the folks back this morning.
After I describe my problem, lady puts me on hold for maybe 45 seconds, comes back on. Says she talked to the head tech guy and says, "He says it's not ready to be ordered yet."
WHAT IN THE FUCK IS THAT SHIT? The season is TWO WEEKS IN, and it's NOT READY TO BE ORDERED?? I already got screwed out of the free preview, and after catching ONE FUCKING CANES GAME, the motherfucker is out again. Absolutely ridiculous. I am SO getting a discount on this.
