Constant Outages

So we moved into our new home in March of this year and got the 1 Gbps plan. Two weeks after everything was installed, we started getting random outages CONSTANTLY every 10 minutes or so. The outages sometimes last hours, so we call a technician. He says the coax line is bad, so he sets up a temporary line. That works for maybe a week, and we start getting the same issue again. So we call a second one, they come in after a month, and replace the temporary line with a new permanent line. It's fine for 2 weeks, with maybe 1 or 2 outages a day, and back to the original issue. At this point, it has been 4 months of consistent issues with unreliable internet, whether you are wired in with Ethernet or using wireless right next to the modem; it just keeps losing connection. So once again I contacted support, and this time they just said they will charge for the visit, even though I have not been paying for any of the previous visits. At this point, I don't know what to do. The internet is so unreliable I cannot work from home with constant disconnections from my meetings.

Hello yihoon, 

I'm sorry to hear that you're still having trouble with your service. We are obligated to inform a customer if there is a possibility of a charge when we come out. If you've had technicians out for the same issue recently without being charged, it's not likely there would be any charge this time either. You are welcome to email our team at cox.help@cox.com for account-specific support.
