So, my promo offer from Xfinity internet for $20 per month was over in December. My January bill jumped to $49.95, so that, February and March were accumulating. I called comcast billing and after charming the agent, I asked in which State they were located. They told me Florida, I wanted the Philippines for reasons that will become clear. This agent, an older black woman, was nice, firm and well-trained. I know, because I used to manage call centers and I was damn good at it. She told me in four distinct ways of why nothing could be done about my bill amount and current internet payment. I told her that she was sweet and helpful before I asked for a supervisor. She skillfully tried to divert me from the supervisor to no avail. Of course I got the machine and left a cheery message. I looked at my notes from last year and noticed that this was a repeat of what happened then; no go in the States, but the Philippine's office was a push over. I figured their billing calls rolled out of the US past 7pm or so, so I called at 8pm. I got a nice agent whose English was better than my Tagalog, so I can't really complain. I told him what was up and that I was tired of switching between them and their competitor each year. If they would just extend my promo offer and waived the overage of the higher rate that accumulated, we'd be all set. He put me on hold and got it done quick, except the higher balance was still owed. I would have gladly paid that as my rate was staying at $19.95, but I felt froggy so I gave it a shot. "You forgot about the higher past due amount, let's take that down to $19.95 x 2 and I'll pay it right now." He did just that, and we're all set. American jobs overseas may not be great for everyone, but it certainly worked out well for me...

After further investigation, you actually don't need the office in the Philippines. You simply need to ask for Comcast Customer Solutions. They have the power to do almost anything to your bills, but there's no direct # for them, you need to call customer service to be routed through. Customer service will never tell you about Customer Solutions, you have to know about it and ask for them. You're welcome...

Oh yeah. I have a friend who calls in every 6 - 8 months, threatens to get a dish over some made up dissatisfaction, and gets free movies or channels for a month or 2.

They can give you stuff.

Oh NO, not another one.

Just found out that another one of my past loves has passed away.
Melissa was the first candidate for marriage prospects.
Though we did not get married I thought of her frequently. I still have, 45 yr later,
some knick knacks she gave me while dating.

Hopeless romantic or pathetic horder?

RIP Melissa S. W.

I have shed tears for each of these ladies as I find out the news of their passing.
Although when I find an Obit with Lisa's name on it I will celebrate.



On second thought third degree burns at my age would not be beneficial and
I do not need additional scars, she left plenty of emotional scars in her wake.
I think a good old smoke out may be in order for just such an occasion.


There are others that I have tried to look up to no avail. No way to know if they
are still among the living or not.

You should date women who are more durable. o_O
