June: Yes, our picture is back on now! Thank you for your help! I'll never understand how you are able to fix our cable box over the phone! Where is your office, anyway? Oh, really? I thought the cable company was right here in town! That's amazing! You sound like you're practically next door! I never would've guessed you were so far away! What's the weather like there? Ralph: My wife is the reason there's always a 25-minute wait when you call customer service!

Our cable co can never fix anything with a call. One is suppose to check a number of things which we checked before we called. They insist there is no problem they can see and they will send someone to our house in a week or so. We refuse. The problem then mysteriously fixes itself 5 minutes after the call ends. Except for the time we had trouble with the Internet modem. Took it back, exchanged it, still did not work. Sent someone a week later. He checked everything, did not fix. Came in and checked the serial number – yes, idiot who exchanged the box did not enter the new number into the system – out of work a week plus!
TV picture freezes and picsalates. We have a wifi modem attached to cable co modem, every night around 2 am the cable modem resets and I lose the wifi. By the next night it is back on and disappears again around 2 am.
