Cox Phone Upgrade Incompatible with Home Security System - Still
Really.
It appears that Cox is still doing nothing to address this, as we just had our phone system upgraded by Cox and our alarm system lost connectivity with the alarm company. This is completely unacceptable. To perform a mandatory migration that requires customers to incur additional alarm service costs, not only a one time equipment charge but an additional recurring service charge, because their upgrade orphans the standard POTS connectivity used by all alarm companies (see related 2017 forum post on "Cox Phone Upgrade Incompatible with Home Security System").
To not give a choice - poor customer service issue #1.
To not give notice of the impact - poor customer service issue #2.
To not help provide a resolution that doesn't cost the customer initially as well as continually-forever - poor customer service issue #3.
Time after time Cox continues to lower the bar on customer service and expectations.
