View Full Version : I was robbed tonight in my apartment which was out of nowhere
TVFactFan 01-26-2016, 09:56 PM Comcast turned off my ****ing cable:o
I set up a payment arrangement for 1/22 because that's when I got paid so I had no idea they would try and get the money at 12am. My money wasn't available until 9am so it was insufficient funds and I come home tonight to a black screen. Why didn't the ****ing lady tell me they take the payment at 12am? I would have the 23rd. Now what has happened is I got to pay the whole ****ing balance to turn my service back on by 2/2/16 is $341.00 and another 183 is due on 2/21
So all together that's five ****ing hundred and twenty dollars that I don't have. I'm on the verge of snapping lol

He could be posting from his data account on his phone.
TVFactFan 01-26-2016, 11:23 PM How are you posting? Is that separate?
Yeah. I have to scrap up $341 by 2/2 to have cable fully restored
Bonniegirl 01-27-2016, 12:42 AM OMG ! When I first saw your thread, I thought you meant your apartment was broken into, burglarized! Thank God that didn't happen. But that s*cks about your cable. Maybe you can talk them into restoring the service without having to pay that money cause it was over a misunderstanding about what time of day the payment would be received. Hope you can work it out!
Bonniegirl 01-27-2016, 12:44 AM How are you posting? Is that separate?
My internet is on our landline phone bill and cable is a completely different bill! ;) So if my cable was off, I would still be able to post on here! ;)

Try to call and talk to a manager and explain that your $$$ wasnt available until 9am... Tell them you didnt realise they were gonna try and get it @ 12am!!! (Try to be calm Even though its hard)
Good luck buddy,Im sure you will have it back soon!!
Good luck :)
Dianne3 01-30-2016, 04:49 PM Your post really scared me.
When you said robbed, I really thought you meant robbed.
Anyway, I'm glad you weren't.

It would have been more of a disaster if this was not income tax time

They control most of the philadelphia area which sucks
dakert 01-31-2016, 04:10 PM I just got a thank you letter from DISH for being a good customer and a 2.00 increase in my bill to pay for the %^$#@ sports which I don't watch.

No way you can eliminate the sports package?
Janice 01-31-2016, 06:51 PM Thanks for the near heart attack Solomon. I thought your home was broken into. Yeah, I hate Comcast. My bill is over $200 now. There's got to be a better way. I hope you can work things out.

Well I had to pay them the $341 to turn it back on because I had no idea when I set the payment arrangement for 1/22, they were going to take the money at 12:01:crazy:
I was only going to give them $166 since I need to save as much as possible to move. But now that I had to give them the remaining $175, that eliminated lunch money and haircut money.
I went on a 1st date on friday night just to get out the house and the girl was like......"you have a lot of hair, nice and curly"
lol

Well that is one good thing that came out of this mess, the girl liking your hair! ;) I hate to hear that you have to do without lunch though!! :( Do they have a microwave at your job? You could pack some leftovers from dinner. I hate to see you go hungry at lunchtime because of that stupid cable company! That's not right! :(

surprisingly the combination of a nutri grain bar and youtube eats up the lunch hour with no problem lol Then at 2pm I am back to work and before I know it it;s 5pm.
The fact that people have quit from being overwhelmed has made everyone's work load heavier so I don't think about food much because I am so busy. So a nutri grain bar for breakfast and lunch seems to do me just fine
TVFactFan 01-31-2016, 08:17 PM In regards to the move, I do know I have close to $800 coming in a few months since I don't have to pay rent for the month of May. And now sure what the new owner will do about the security deposit but if it turns out I do get the security back then I will be in a much better situation
Right now my goal is to save about $2000 between now and 3/19
I will say that I will be more than halfway there by mid february
Bonniegirl 01-31-2016, 08:37 PM That's good that you have a little something to eat for lunch! And glad you are able to save and have money for your move!
After the cable fiasco and your building being sold and having to move, you deserve to have some good things happen for you! 2016 started out rough, hopefully the rest of the year will go better for you!

Bonnie I'm just excited that tomorrow is a new month and January is over and done with. The worst january of my life and worst than the previous january's when I was unemployed lol
No way February can be as bad january since I already know the building is sold and halfway toward my saving goal. Plus I met a girl friday night who only lives 10 mins away
So I have already set the tone for February

The funny thing is I don't even get a sports package but everyone has to pay for it.

That sounds crazy, atleast crazy Comcast gives you the option to select the sports package
mets82 02-01-2016, 12:15 AM Solomon, I thought you were robbed too. Glad you weren't. Believe me, had the same problem with them before Thanksgiving. I planned on paying half of 130 bill on the Fri. before Thanksgiving and the other half two wks. later. But no, because they said that my bill was past due, 65 bucks wasn't enough so I had to pay them thfull 130 bucks the Friday before Thanksgiving. Now I had planned to use that other 65 bucks for the holiday. That really pissed me off!!:o

Nope just comcast telling me if you don't give 341 dollars you won't be able to continue searching for an apartment lol

I forgot about the building being sold. Where are you moving to and how does it compare to your apartment now? How's the rent? How will you move your furniture and stuff?
So, you like this gal so far? Ten minutes away, that is convenient. Time for you to settle down and have a Solomon Jr. :D
