Comcast vs. Xfinity!

 



I just spent way too long on the phone trying to get a human being at Comcast to let them know what they are doing is illegal! 

They are sneakily double billing their customers!!!

This has been going on for months... first, you get an email from Xfinity with your bill and then a few days later you get another bill from Comcast for the same amount! They are the same company! PS I have never missed paying them and I pay electronically from my bank as I do with all my bills!

I think there is an agency that should know about this, FCC?

Yes, I called them, 1-888-225-2278, website: https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us

And once off of here, I will fill out the proper forms for my complaint! (I was reassured by the woman at the FCC, Yolanda, that I had the right agency for my concerns! I did print out the forms.)OKAY, THIS JUST IN!!!

Thought I would give Comcast/ Xfinity one more chance before I went all FCC on them so I called. Thinking that if I was correct they would be fined and that would cause our bills to go up, and so who would I be helping, truly?

And so I spoke with Allana who is, an escalation corporate resolution representative with Comcast/ Xfinity. 215-665-2278

She clarified that Comcast is the company and Xfinity is the brand and that although two or more reminders go out monthly only one payment is applied, whether a customer is confused or not with possibly paying more than once! Then it would be applied to the following month etc.

Moving on...

Today I was going to take down my dusty blinds and wash them in the tub and then hang them out to dry... but the storms will be coming in early!

I have four two-inch slat faux wood PVC blinds in the two bedrooms and one real wood in Hubby's bathroom! Hubby also has nine glass cubes in his 4'X6' shower room, so no need for any blinds or window treatments there either!

My bathroom has a window in the combo tub/shower, so it is frosted and when we replaced all our windows after moving in here we made sure of that. We had all jalousies! This house was built in 1958. I did like the jalousies for the privacy of the openings but highly inefficient heat and cold-wise.

The frosted glass one doesn't have any window coverings due to it being in the shower/tub combo in my bathroom!




Four of these faux wood 2" blinds from JC Pennys, same with the real wood one above that also has a tinted window, is from there. But those five blinds really need attention, but I have to wait until the weather is more cooperative! Probably in December, bud dump bum! Hope not!



Lastly a somewhat ordinary sunrise? But I will share...




  

And so we must go, for now ...

Please be smart, as well as safe.
Have a very pleasant day.

Count those blessings, and we will too!
Next time, please be here or be square, ya hear!

Aussie, say good day!

I am Aussie, not being from Australia, but American-made, I will comply anyway, for the fun of it,... so I will say good day!

I am called Aussie because my Mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl, who had been looking at me, in the crate at the adoption site, that day, what she thought I should be named. And without hesitation, the teenager had said, Aussie! She was just looking, by the way,... so Mom did not steal me from her.
We never did find out the girl's name, and Mom liked the name Aussie too. We have since found out that it is a very common name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon though,... some might say even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd. Here is an interesting factoid about me, I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but... as you might know, I AM NOT! Although I am now three years old, so I am the baby, though I tip the scales at around seventy pounds, HA! I must admit, a very big one!
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. Below is my new PIC that had been taken on the birthday that I share with my Dad, but Dad is much, much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted, February 16, 2018, his brother's birthday.
3 months................................................ 3 years

No tail/tale publishing, circa 2018. (Although, the actual date this blog started was June 25, 2008.) 
Get it? I was born without a tail, preferable for all Australian Shepherds; only one out of five are born that way!

                                           
Hello, I am Bella in the picture above, a Maltese Yorkie, a Morkie, and I might be five years old. I am the middle child, so I am what you would expect, with all those idiosyncrasies that go along with all that! Being the only girl has its rewards, as well as difficulties... We are all rescues, so no one knows for sure our ages. I was turned in by my previous family, stating that I was misbehaving with their elderly dog, they had said I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, on clear out the shelters' day!Oh, by the way, my record's called me Belle, and so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella; beautiful either way!


Please don't forget me, I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am six years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with Mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps in with Dad, till after seven most days, even later! I enjoy a good tug-a-war on the ropes that Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays too! I was the last to be adopted, on January 23, 2020. 

I was wandering the neighborhood for days and then saw Aussie and Bella in their living-room window, so I hung out there... The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening? 

The animal control lady was called and came out to see if I had a chip I.D. with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason being, that if no one claimed me, I want to give him a second chance! So that is how I got the name Chance!

Easy as Aussie, Bella, Chance, now you got it!
