They don't throttle internet unless your modem is not approved for the speed you are signed up for. You can verify your modem here - https://www.cox.com/residential/support/cox-certified-cable-modems.html. Service fees are charged only if
1. The problem is inside the home, IE, wiring/connections/cable/or your own personal modem or equipment.
2. If #1 is true, then you can avoid a service charge by paying 9.99 a month for Cox Complete Care, which not only covers the service charge, but ALSO, provides you 24x7 tech support your computer, personal router, connecting equipment, infected computers/tablets etc. Pretty good deal if your not a systems engineer like myself.
Okay I've been at Cox customer for a long time and you're lying you guys do throttle people's internet and you do trick them into upgrading and you do charge people to come out and do maintenance when nothing's even wrong. I have seen it and I have talked to people who work for your company who no longer do.

First, DarkATT is a subscriber to the Forum and doesn't work for Cox. DarkATT used to work for Cox but now doesn't.
Second, why do you keep choosing your comments as the answer to an OP's problem?
Users do search the Forum for similar problems and if a post is selected as "Answered," they'll research it to solve their problem; however, your "answered" comments wouldn't solve anything. Your comments are just complaining. You're wasting subscribers' time and effort.
I also noticed you need to vote yourself up on all your comments. I'm surprised you haven't mentioned yourself yet.

I have never voted myself up, in fact never really noticed the up and down arrows till you mentioned it. Also, as I look in this forum, all of my posts have a ZERO, which means they haven't been voted up or down. Additionally, if someone else has the same problem, then the same info is needed. Yes, I used to work for Cox, and yes, I am a systems engineer, and actually, a CNE as well. If I can help someone with an issue they are having, I am all about trying to do so. I retired due to medical issues, and I can no longer sit in front of a computer for 8-10 hrs a day It doesn't mean I should throw away the positive knowledge I have to assist people having issues with a service I am intimately familiar with.

I think you're confused to whom I was responding.

I don't have to explain anything to you. Mind your own business. I wasn't talking to you.
