Movies and TV ATT Uverse vs Comcast XFINITY

jaa1025 · 02-11-2011, 06:04 PM

I have ATT Uverse but am thinking of switching to XFINITY. A rep came by and said they've upgraded their lines (above my head) to be similar to UVERSE in my neighborhood. Anyone have XFINITY? It's cheaper than what I have and the internet is supposedly faster. I remember having big problems with comcast going out and customer service about 8-9 years ago though so I'm cautious.

Att in my area' isnt as fast as Comcast or i would have switched. They call me and ask if i want to switch, i said can you be as fast as comcast in my area, they say no, and the phone call is over.

From my personal experience, Comcast is much better than ATT.

i complained about internet lag today when playing xbox and they bumped me up to about 40mb for free. lol Internet is pretty fast now. lol Still wish i had fios here though.

Just tell them that the gaming lag is unacceptable and it needs to be fixed or your going to disconnect the service. I didnt even have to talk to anyone it was all live chat.

I hate Comcast as a company but their services and internet are top notch in the cable industry. But they treat their customers like shit

I'm much much much happier with Comcast than I was with Uverse. No comparison.

Im using Uverse. I get 18mb's (roughly 2.2 MB) down. Up is a lot slower, but I don't often upload stuff.

Up time has been awesome, and anytime I have needed to, I have contacted ATT and had great service. Used to have Time Warner, never, ever, will I go back to that shit company for anything.

I had so many outtages with Comcast I just can't ever see myself going back unless there is no other option. I've had Uverse for a long time without many issues, with that being said Comcast could have gotten their crap together by now, but I just don't trust them.

I just switched from Xfinity to AT&T. ATT just put all new lines in my area so my internet is as fast or faster than what I had with Comcast. DVR is bigger and my bill is about $50 a month cheaper. TV all channels(on 4 TVs), Internet and Phone package. Happy with AT&T, and I got a $300 Visa card to boot!!
