Damnit, Comcast. Damnit.

Dear Valued XFINITY Customer,

We value your business.

You may have read an email from us in the last several days about a change to your Internet service. The subject line would have read:

Great News: We've Increased Your Download Speeds

The email was sent to you in error and we apologize for any inconvenience. Please disregard that email.

If there is any change to your service in the future, we will send you a separate email.

As always, we'll continue to work hard to bring you the best online experience.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
The Comcast Customer Care Team

Sig'ed.

What speed did you think you got bumped to?

 

[AndroidVageta]

If you think you got a speed boost it will feel like you got a speed boost...make your internet faster by believing that it is.

The original email that they had to apologize stated

"[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]We're pleased to announce that we recently increased the download speed of your Economy Service from XFINITY Internet—from 1Mbps to 1.5Mbps. That's up to 50% faster!"

As soon as I saw it I knew a retraction would be coming, as my speed is greater than 1MB..heh....of course it took them 4 days.

Spidey cares. He may even take a short break from his daily Comcast bukkake session to comment on this.

Speed bumps are meant to slow you down, not speed you up.

Awesome! So they're giving you more speed and not charging extra. That's Xfinity for you, always moving forward and providing The Best Internet.

25 percent increase in download speed and 100 percent in upload. Amazing.
