I was robbed tonight in my apartment which was out of nowhere - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Comcast turned off my ****ing cable

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

Cable's a rip off anyway. Get some old school rabbit ears and you won't miss cable. Tv is better when it's free.

Yeah. I have to scrap up $341 by 2/2 to have cable fully restored

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!

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!

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
