Transferring Cox Email to Another Provider
If we choose not to accept the transfer of our Cox.net email address & content to Yahoo Mail and want instead to choose another email provider, is there a way to a) transfer/maintain our Cox.net address with another provider, or b) request Cox redirect our _.net mail to a new address? Thanks!34Views0likes2CommentsCox email switch to Yahoo disaster
I have spent the entire morning, plus 3 phone calls, re "EMAIL transition". I have Outlook Cox email needing transition to Yahoo. Online discussions/Reddit, etc. states Yahoo does not accept Outlook transition. I also see some customers after much time/effort were able to do this. Customer service could not complete transition to Yahoo from Outlook (rep did try with no success), but suggested for $10 mo for Cox Help they could help me. This is the LAST STRAW....I have been a customer of Cox for 30 years with many ups/downs.....however, this EMAIL TRANSITION is a disaster. I can now only access my email thru the Cox email web; Outlook email does not work at all. I will be changing all services including internet, cable, phone, email @ $235 monthly bill ASAP.68Views0likes2CommentsInternet connection throttled
Hello. There have been some days in a row where my Xbox Series X is being throttled. I can see the ping going from low ms to more than 500 ms. All my other devices are working ok. Does somebody with the same symptom and how to approach Cox to ask them to stop throttling my service? Kind regards6Views0likes0CommentsHelp me get help from Cox
We have had terrible internet for 7 weeks after a prolonged outage. Paying for 500 Mbps but have inconsistent speeds (15-500), high ping and frequent disconnects. Both wired and wireless devices have problems. Cox has sent 4 different guys over the last 2 weeks, and they all gave different takes on the issues from "bad footprint" to external wiring. They have replaced line to the box and from the box to the faceplate. Using Cox Gateway. The problems persist. Do I just keep asking for tech to be sent hoping that someone will finally be skilled enough to fix this? Or is there some other method to get Cox's attention? Also, how do I get a refund for bad service?44Views1like8CommentsInternet drops; zero upload
For the last year, my internet intermittently drops or grinds to a sluggish pace. I have gigablast, have Eero Pro 6 routers all through the house, have an Arris sb8200 modem (which per Cox is compatible and I have used prior versions over the years with no issue). I even bought another Arris sb8200 to see if first one was bad. I have had Cox out to my house at least 6 times in last year to investigate but not one tech can "find the problem" but they tinker with things every time they come. Sometimes it goes out in the morning before work, sometimes midday, sometimes at night. Happens when I am the only one home working or when whole family is home working, streaming, gaming. I am about to lose my mind over this. I have had Cox for almost 15 years and no issues until about a year ago. All the equipment and plan I have I've had for more than a year so to me, it can't be the equipment, and I have the fastest plan. So all signs point to the problem being on Cox's end. But they have checked the street, the outside of the house, the inside of the house, with no solution. If anyone has a suggestion I am all ears. The only thing I don't want to do is get the Panoramic Wifi modem if at all possible. I've never needed it before and prefer not to use it since it is a modem and router and I am happy with my Eero routers and don't want to have to replace them.6Views0likes0CommentsCOX is the worst
Why does COX make it so difficult to contact their support? All the links on their site go nowhere...talk to Oliver, click here....NOTHING!!! Seems like every few months my Internet goes out, then I spend far too long trying to get a live chat going only to be told there is no problem. WHY have an option if it does not work and you wonder why people hate calling support...they are trying to use the options presented to them on your site, but get nowhere.27Views0likes1CommentABC and Fox not working
ABC and Fox channels are not working on any of our cable boxes. Receive a message that says “ we’re having trouble on our end. This channel isn’t currently working...”. Neither channel has worked for 3+ days. Reset box numerous times, reset system, unplugged and lugged back in and no change. Cox support has been worthless, response was they must be undergoing maintenance at abc and Fox yet we aren’t showing anything, and should be back up in an hour or so. Yet no Response when I remind them they have been down for 3 days. anyone Else? Orange County, ca2.2KViews0likes5Comments
