Today, someone finally came to fix my phone line after three weeks with no Internet. The engineer reconnected the phone line to the wrong apartment. I hope my neighbour is enjoying my unlimited broadband. FML

OP here - can't believe this got published?! I immediately phoned my ISP once I'd figured out what happened - I couldn't reconnect the line myself as I can't access the exchange box (and plus I wouldn't trust myself to be fiddling around in there anyway), and my internet has been restored. As for compensation, I should be getting a portion of my bill back as it took them so long to send an engineer out. Thanks everyone!

Well, assuming the previous 3 weeks without Internet were the fault of the company as well, I would look for some sort of compensation

I hope they come back right away to fix that!

Good thing it's unlimited. Otherwise you were in for a hefty internet bill next month.

I'm amazed how you went so long without Internet. I'd be clawing my hair out.

at least let them know so you're not charged

That's why I never let them leave the apartment before I've checked if things actually work. I'm sure they hate me for but Comcast has so many problems and so many crummy technicians who don't care about their job that they've started charging 45 for a visit. So ridiculous!!

How does someone live without Internet for 3 weeks??????? R u a freaking god???????????

That's when you call them and have them fix it, dumbass

A phone line for broadband? I thought that was for dial up..
