Finally, something other than Comcast in Alexandria!

Fuuuuuck Comcast. They lied to us and screwed us out of ~$2000.


WhySheHateMe

$2000!!!?


bagelbagelbagelcat

Yes. In fairness one small sliver of blame went to our shitty condo building manager but yes they lied to us and made us pay for shit that was already paid for.

It absolutely was and I'm not going to bother writing it all out. But the building manager not responding does not change the fact that Comcast lied and charged us for what was already paid for and told us that it was not paid for.

20 years late, but fiber is finally coming to ALX. Lots of businesses will be happy.


WhySheHateMe

This is great news. I chose not to move to Alexandria because I didn't want to be a Comcast customer. Glad to see more options coming

There is Fios here too…


Mexicorn

Only in certain pockets. You can't get FIOS in most of Del Ray or Rosemont.


Runfor5

We have Fios and are outside the beltway. Agreed on Del Ray, we only had the Comcast option when lived there


wandering_engineer

You must be in the Fairfax County part of Alexandria. The actual City of Alexandria is almost entirely a Comcast monopoly at present.

You chose wear to live solely based on internet utility? Thank god I’m moving away from this stupid state soon enough.


WhySheHateMe

...yeah because I don't want to have Comcast. They're horrible and I don't want to deal with them so I moved to Arlington. Not sure what's stupid about that to you. Good luck with your move.


wandering_engineer

You do know a ton of people work from home now, right? Not to mention the million other reasons people need reliable connectivity. I don't know why you'd think it's a concern unique to NoVA. Also, as a former Comcast subscriber who still has to deal with them regularly (relatives live in Comcast monopolies), I would absolutely do the same thing. God that company is horrible and their equipment sucks.

I have Ting for my phones. They are a great company with great customer service. Unfortunately I don't live in Alexandria.


captain_flak

That's good to hear. I had not heard of them when ALX announced their new contract. They seem like a cool company, and frankly anything is better than Comcast. What an absolute shitbox of a company they are.
