Service shut down w/out warning
Brighthouse has just shut down my service entirely (phone, cable, internet) without any warning, twice now! It was down for over an hour. Luckily I have a cell phone, but what about those people without? They couldn't even call 911. This company is out for its customers blood

Fraud and scam
I am a 63 year old married male, Native, Vietnam Veteran, married 40 years, in reasonably good health and sound mind. I am self-employed data base Application Programming and am fairly adept at technology.
When I was a kid, (1958 here in Daytona Beach, Florida), Cable TV was coming and it was going to be commercial FREE, the catch was you had to PAY for it once a month...now advance forward 50 years, you pay an average of $80.00 a month for it and every HOUR of Cable TV you watch 30 minutes ONE HALF OF EVERY HOUR of it is ADVERTISING, of which 11-12 mins of the 30 minutes is BrightHouse s own advertising what great service they have. I used 2 digital kitchen timers and a pad of paper to figure the content vs advertising minute lengths in my calculations. I did not count the many 24-7 infomercials in my calculations. I have searched the Web for a better way to pinpoint accurately how much advertising there is being spewed on to Cable subscribers.
This has been an annoying, steady increase in advertising, steadily rising over the last few years. Now with banner Ads and ghostly popups in the background happening more and more frequency, I have to ask where does it end? When will it ever end ?
I get a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) from BrightHouse for $9.00 a month extra, we record a few things, our son and his wife at the TODAY SHOW in NY on Vacation. One of MY Squadrons Airplanes taking off for an Alpha Strike into North Vietnam, USS Enterprise (1966), (Military Channel). I show to all my friends and neighbors and say how great the DVR is... a month later after 5 or 6 attempts to fix my pixelization problems BrightHouse Cable co.informs me I need a new DVR... ok ..what about the stuff I have saved on it? They say "too bad" the USB ports on the DVR are useless, disabled from the factory for BrightHouse Cable. Nobody at BrightHouse can explain to me WHY the customer can't use the USB ports to SAVE there precious memories/recordings on an inexpensive USB memory flash drive.
I have written many editorials about BrightHouse and submitted to the local mullet wrapper on numerous occasions, they never have seen the light of day. I figured all the media is in cahoots to bombard us all with as much mind numbing AD's as possible.

Nothing but problems
I have Brighthouse and I have a package deal with them. It includes Tv, phone and cable, w my ph I had voice mail. Well my bill fell behind and they shut my service off. I payed the bill and got the service turnd back on, but they told me I have to pay for voice mail now sense it got shut off and I was no longer able to have it w the package. How can u take away a service from a package deal because I was late on the bill and it got shut off. I have nothing but problems w these people and I hate there company..

Tired of brighthouse

Internet and cable
Moved into a new home june 2008. found out the only internet service available was Brighthouse. Till then, i had never used them. After my 1st year with them; I wish i never heard of them! My internet goes out 2 or 3 times a day! Seriously, 2 or 3 times a day, everyday! I call about once a week and file a complaint and they tell me to unplug equipment and reset it. They have a sent a technician to my home about 6 times in 1 year. The last time he came out, he took a look around and did something and it started working. He said he thought he fixed it and left. The next day, the internet died again, so i called again! The tech from the previous day, reported that it was a "no call"? The digital cable service we have with them is more reliable unless you order a movie. It starts but crashes before the movied ends. EVERYTIME!

Over charged by 500
I am so sick of Brighthouse! We moved here to Florida May 19th of 08, and before we moved we had called them to hook us up. They were 5 days late on doing so! Then they had told us that our bills were only $149.00 with everything that I have which is, Internet, Basic Cable (so 70 channels), and phone. We get bills twice a month asking for over $500.00. The bill I recieved today was $530.00, I have NEVER missed a payment, but when I call them they say that there is nothing they can do, that we have to pay for the previous people who had the phone number. It has been like that since we moved here of May 08. I am so sick of this crap, that I hired a lawyer last week to take care of this. These people are a rip off!!! BEWARE!!!

slam/cram
I had an issue with my cable box so I called customer service to get the problem resolved. Because we were not turning our TV and cable box off in the right sequence it caused a problem. (gee never was told there was a proper way to turn off my tv and cable box) While I had "customer service" on the phone I thought I would ask how much it would be if we added phone and internet to our package. She gave me a price and I advised her that I would get back to her, I was just researching prices. This call was on Friday night. On Tuesday afternoon I go to log on to my computer and find my internet acccount is blocked.. what the heck! I call the phone company and find out that Bright House had sent in a disconnect order for both my phone and internet service. I DID NOT. The phone company cancelled the order to cancel my service with them and put me thru to Bright House. I finally get a person on the phone at Bright House after going thru the complicated phone option system, and get a ding bat csr who doesn't have any idea why this happened. I asked for a supervisor and had the pleasure, NOT, of talking to her. She advised me that because I had asked how much it would be for the added services they had to issue a work order to be able to tell me.. I am like are you kidding me, you don't have the ability to tell a customer how much the services are without sending out a disconnect order? She tells me that the order was cancelled 2 minutes after the inquery and that it is the phone companies fault that the disconnect occured. I told her that it wasn't the phone company fault, nor was it mine that my service was disconnected and she had no idea how unhappy I would have been if my phone service had been disconnected. I had this conversation with Bright House CSR supervisor for 20 minutes. They took no responsibilty for the work order, and she kept saying it was the phone companies fault for cancelling my service. Hello, who sent the work order in without my agreement???? She told me I needed to call the phone company and find out why they didn't cancel the work order.. I advised her the only other phone call I was making was to the FCC which I will be following up with after this . UM I don't think it's legal to change someones phone service with out their permission.. Thanks Brighthouse really appreciate you wasting my time as well as cancelling my service.

Awful service
Brighthouse internet and digital phone drops out several times a day. 6 Brighthouse servicemen over 12 months have not resolved the problem. This is unacceptable service.
