		<description><![CDATA[I live in Flatts and have had no calble or internet since Saturday.

The week before that I had no internet all week as they could not get a technician out to us.

No apologies or offer of a discount from Cablevision! We would switch to WOW but our condo association doesn&#039;t allow antennas.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just don&#039;t know what to say.  I am in Smith&#039;s and have had intermittant  cable since Thursday.

we were off on part of Thursday, part of Friday, part of Saturday, most of Sunday, all Day Monday and it is now 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday and we are still not on.

Cablevision did not report any power outages to BELCO.  I feel sorry for the overseas agents who say &quot; I am only telling you what cablevision has told me&quot;

I do not think   that any technicians were working yesterday, at least the trucks were not seen.

My question is, if there were power outages why is it that WOW customers in the same building did not lose service at all?

Cablevision should make a public apology on all media especially to the people of Smith&#039;s.]]></description>

If you wish to complain about the quality of service you Receive from Cable vision.

Please e-mail: gtelecom@gov.bm

Th e Ministry of Telecommunications needs to hear it from the people.

		<description><![CDATA[My Cable was off on Thursday evening, most of Saturday, all of Sunday and only came back on Monday at 8pm. It is now off again this morning. To say that service was restored by early afternoon is total and utter crap. 8pm is not early afternoon in anyone&#039;s book. Poor customer service is compounded when people start telling lies. 

Unless Cablevision reduce my bill this month, that&#039;s it, I am off to BTC and Wow. Having all my eggs in one basket doesn&#039;t make sense anyway, as when the TV goes down, so does the Internet.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My major gripe with CableVision is the constant freezing of certain channels and blacked out screens which go on and on indefinitely!  Shouldn&#039;t someone be monitoring these things and, if not, why not?  We&#039;re expected to pay our bills in full on time but are not getting a full months service!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Problems due to the winds and storm ? ?    What storm ?  BWS reported gusts of 52 kts. Is that a storm or just a warning that their infrastructure is so wimpy that we can expect outages with just a puff of wind or 93% humidity for an already overpriced utility that should be there all the time ?

And when can I and everyone else expect to get the speed from our internet that we pay for ?  You know , the speeds that you advertise and overcharge us for ? ?]]></description>
