07/20/2012 Communication With Charter Communications

Have not received a follow up call from Charter, called at 9:00 "5 calls due to internet dropping out" for follow up status of previous day. Spoke with Supervisor, Cory operator# LTC, he's is going to email dispatch with priority status for service today between 3-5.

Tech "Brad" had me move the gateway to the room it was originally in due to signal loss where it had been relocated. Still getting signal loss issue still not resolved, moving the gateway to the Charter coax.

Called the 800 Charter number, told all they can do is schedule another tech to look at the lines and gateway in the house.

07/18/2012 Communication With Charter Communications

I called Charter internet support for a tech to check external service on Charter's side. The tech checked the log and found constant signal loss through out the log only, dating back to the start of July, he concluded the service on Charters side needed to be checked as this seemed the issue. He spoke with his supervisor being he had not handled this type of issue before. A service call was set up to follow up on the Charter side.

I then asked to be transferred to the department to seek compensation for the sketchy service we have have since installation on 12/2010, The "GIRL" who cam on the line informed me the only compensation she could give me would be $28.00 and some change, due to records only going back to the start of July. I asked for a bump to the 30 meg service for the lack of service and insisted she speak to a supervisor to make this happen. She came back and told me no! I should discontinue my service until it was resolved! I then asked to speak to a supervisor, placed on hold for a bit, the call then just started to ring and then disconnect!

07/18/2012 Communication With Charter Communications

The tech "Russle" replaced coax connectors and a splitter, he had the office run tests and found no issues with the connection. He told me to call "John" if I had any more issues, as they would need to schedule maintenance to check the connection on the Charter side. I followed up with John when the issue continued. John called Russle, called me back to let me know Russle would follow up with me, after more then 2 hours I had no follow up. I called John and received VM, I left a message asking for follow up status… received none.
