Speeds
So who all has issues with their speeds not being consistent or instead just losing connection to the internet completely? I find myself driving up my cellphone bill more often then not since I have to rely on my cellphones internet to do most things at home since the connection from COX seems to not work most of the time. I know I have talked to a group of people from work that also have a facebook thread talking about this same issue with their speeds and connections constantly going out only to be told it is their cable modem so they buy a new one only to have the same issue. I myself have done this in the past a few times as well and it gets old. I had to sign a contract for internet service just a few months back and I do the exact same stuff with my internet as I did before and sometimes even less (sometimes by choice other times since internet is down) I feel like I definitely dont want to pay more for the same terrible service it seems I keep getting. But the Internet rates seem like they constantly go up and we get less for it. I have been made to feel like I am not worth having as a customer by customer service many times when getting an attitude that seems like "well if you dont like it go somewhere else" . Anybody else get the same kind of issues or feeling that COX really doesn't care about their customers at all? Seems like more and more they just care about the next swindle they can pull to get more money and give less.644Views0likes2CommentsBilling Question

Response from Cox Moderator is *** **! The fact is, Cox or any other communication provider will not allow on-line down-grades! You're screwed man! The providers want to make it *** near impossible to downgrade services. They will gladly "upgrade" (= more $) your "service", even if it already screws you! I know Cox wont post this, but at least I can vent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have been with Cox for 10+ years. The service has gotten worse and worse. The modem was replaced 2 weeks ago. We went and bought a new router and that didn't help either. It is obvious that the problem is with COX because of the hundreds of complaints found on the support Forums. To charge customers for service that isn't compatible with what is advertised deceptive advertising. I hope COX will get it fixed very quickly!1.5KViews0likes3CommentsRE: Node Split progress inquiry.
I was letting other customers know about how great "Residential High speed Internet is" with information. You should have taken it a step further and deleted the thread entirely. Forum: Internet Forum Posted: 22 May 2016 Post Subject: RE: Node Split progress inquiry. Post author: StephanieA Norman said: So this "work order # is: 7711716" was a technician visit. Well, A third party contractor showed up. He sat in his truck for 40 minutes and then left. He said he came up to the door and knocked and no one answered (lie). He never left his truck. He said he called over and over to my house phone + cellphone (lie). He didn't call once. He rescheduled the appointment on his own without contacting me for two weeks from now on June 4th between 3-5PM. The third party contractor was from WCC Cable. I have two doors the main door and the glass screen door. The main door was wide open with the see through glass screen door. A car was in the drive way. He just sat out there got his hour pay and left. I contacted tier 2 support and tried to get someone out today but he could not get in contact with dispatch. Tier 2 support said usually something like this is resolved within 3 months with a construction ticket. I can not for the life of me get any type of notes, numbers, whatever relating to a node split actually being planned. But somehow support on twitter sees a node split "Hey, the node split is still on the schedule to get completed but the time frame has been changed. We are working to get this done as soon as possible. -Shariel" I followed up with "I want proof hard proof a physical letter in the mail. An email, Work order #, Anything relating to the note split. Stating that a node split is actually going to happen. Instead of getting the run around constantly. Because this is insane." The reply "Hey, there is no letter we can generate for this. Things happen that can push the dates back. -Shariel" My reply ". If there was a node split planned there would be some sort of information out there stating it was being planned. Because if it wasn't where are you getting your information from? You would have documentation stating a ETA" The time frame has been changed 4 times now. End of march, End of april, End of May, End of June, Latest July! Keep in mind this has been going on since November. With the field supervisor being out in January with another technician who both seen the slow speed and failed to put in a ESR. The Field supervisor Bruce and the executive division a guy named Kevin both contacted me days after they left and stated a node split was needed and planned by the end of march. It's almost comical to have 1/10th of your internet speed for over half a year and not have a single ticket, esr, anything put in about slow speeds.

went from premier to ultimate in my area 23518 and instead of the 200mbps I'm paying for it actually is doing a bit worse from my old 100 mbps on my premier plan, before upgrading I had a cisco DPC3010 and now with the ultimate plan I have the arris surfboard SB6183 cable modem. speeds have never broken 90 let along the 200 mbps I require for my high speed life. so either I can get this resolved or just downgrade and save the cash cause at that point my speed will be faster. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/51410225181.7KViews0likes1CommentPrice Increases and Very Poor Services
Enough is enough. Fraudulent conveyance of services. Un-acceptable wait times for customer service, tech support, and billing questions. I'm documenting video grabs and chat support….it's sad but funny sometimes. Wecouldn't make this stuff up. Seriously a $50.00 price increase this month.2.1KViews0likes2CommentsSuper slow speeds on PREMIER service at 85016

Good afternoon; Considering my mother isn't as good enough with computers and internet as I am, she allowed me to make her forum account for her. We just moved to our new home last Friday (Nov 20), but have had internet/tv/phone since last Wednesday (Nov 18). During the day, our internet speeds are around 1/5 of the speeds we're paying for (up to 100 Mbps). At night however, we get anywhere from 5Mbps to around 40Mbps. I understand the speed we pay for, Premier, is "up to 100Mbps," but if we're getting Preferred, "up to 50Mbps," speeds, we might need to get downgraded. We had figured with three people using the internet and all of us playing games that require internet access, Premier would be best for us. Sadly, if we're not getting more than Preferred speeds, we shouldn't have to pay for Premier. We don't have the money right now to buy our own modem and router, or else we would. What could we do, without spending any extra money (because we just moved), to get the speeds we're paying for.
