Just called Comcas to have A&E removed form my cable TV service. The Customer Service Rep says that A&E is part of a larger package and I’d lose over 100 channels.
I told , “OK, remove them all.” He then spoke with his manager who said (1) others are calling Comcast to cancel A&E and (2) Comcast may have a solution soon to remove/block single channels.
I told him that I didn’t want any of my money to go to A&E as part of what I pay for the package and if Comcast couldn’t do that I’ll leave Comcast.
Given that he said they were working on a solution I’m going to give them 2 weeks and then cancel if A&E gets one penny of my money. And, I’ll drop Comcast, if need be, as well.
Everybody needs to call, call, call and cancel A&E.
Comcast/Xfinity, as well as all cable companies have been saying we’ll be able to order channels “ala carte” for years now. The truth of the matter is, it’s not happening “soon” and it probably never will. Such a move would cost the channels too much money
