I got this one this morning....

Dear Comcast @Home Customer,

On Friday, September 28, Excite@Home, the Internet service provider for 
Comcast @Home, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to allow them 
the opportunity to restructure their financial situation with their
creditors. 
 As you may know, financial restructuring allows companies that have declared

bankruptcy to continue to operate their business successfully.
 
More than five years ago, Comcast committed to the high-speed Internet 
business by partnering with Excite@Home, and we continue to be committed 
to providing high quality, reliable service.  We are confident that
Excite@Home, 
whose major shareholders include AT&T, Cox and Comcast, will maintain all 
e-mail and web space services for our customers. 

Comcast will continue providing its customers with the best high-speed 
Internet service both now and in the future.  We are doing everything
possible 
to ensure that the 950,000 customers we will serve by year-end will continue 
to be served well while Excite@Home restructures its financial situation.

---my comment---

That's almost 40 million dollars a year and they can't pay their bills?! Cut
me a break.

---my comment off---

Comcast views high-speed Internet as one of the most important products 
in our portfolio and we remain committed to this business and to our
customers. 
 We thank you for choosing Comcast and look forward to continuing to provide 
you with the best high-speed Internet service available.

Sincerely,

David Juliano
Sr. Vice President & General Manager

I wrote Mr. Juliano and blasted the shit out of him. He holds two top
management 
offices and no doubt drawing a slarary large enough to match. What a crock! 

I told him (like he really gives a damn) that I wouldn't fork over
another dollar increase for their lousy cable internet... 

Verizon of New Jersey is within $7.00 of what I'm currently paying now...
there's 
other for sure. At least, as far as digital internet goes, I have some
choice.
