Anyone in Boston Area - Have you lost your cable?

[exorr]

I'm in Salem, MA and my cable went out about 30 minutes ago. Trying to call Comcast but its difficult to get through and then when I do and it transfers me I get a busy signal. I'm hoping this is because everyone is having problems and not just me, but I wanted to confirm...

Only reason I care is because of the Patriots game tomorrow at 6:30pm and I'm worried the storm is going to prevent this from being fixed in time...

I haven't. Oh wait, I'm not in Boston.

Edit. Oh btw, my cable is working!

You could go back to the stone ages, hook up a pair of rabbit ears & just watch old fashioned broadcast TV on WBZ.



Of course, that's provided the electricity isn't out by tomorrow night. :Q




Better run out & get a battery operated portable, just in case.

OK, so its my whole area, that would explain the busy signals trying to call Comcast. Hopefully that means it will be fixed soon, they will have A LOT of unhappy customers if they don't have it fixed by game time!

Here's to hoping they get this fixed...:beer:

I'll go into the city (taking the train, no driving!) and find somewhere with satelite. Maybe the Sports Grille near North Station...
