An open letter to the Brainchildren at Comcast...

The other night my husband was flipping through the channels...(shocking I know!) and commented how a few of the channels weren't working. I told him...meh...they probably just switched things around again and we need to reprogram our TV. Later that night I got a call from my MIL that the Soap Channel wasn't working...Evidently, the brainiacs at Comcast decided to remove 4 random channels...and if you want them back...yes, ma'am that'll be 14.99 a month.

Dear Kings of Stupidity at Comcast,

Let me get this straight. You wake up one morning and decide..."gee, I know these customers have paid MORE THAN $50 A MONTH!!! to get their cable TV for the past 10 years, but I believe today's the day to start removing channels". To which another King of Stupidity replies..."Hey! I have a better idea! Let's take channels away...and if they want them back (those same channels that were included in their package yesterday) we can tell them it'll be $14.99 a month! GENIUS!" NO NO NO my friends it is NOT genius. It is wrong on many levels. How do you take something away that we've had for years and now tell us we're going to have to pay more to get it? WHAT? Whose bright idea was that you morons?!?

Bring on deregulation...I need a choice.

Sincerely,

Your least satisfied customer.
