Not at all Satisfied
If you indicated anything less than very satisfied with cable television service, why are you not very satisfied?
Cox Communications service as a whole is deplorable. I have had Cox service in Virginia Beach for 3 years now and I honestly can’t think of anything nice to say about them. There ability to provide a reliable service that is always on is a joke, when there are problems it takes them upwards of a week to send even the junior most service person out. When the junior service tech comes out they often can’t fix the problem and have to escalate the trouble ticket. Cox’s customer service is as almost none existent, I frequently sit on hold for upwards of 20 min waiting to put in a trouble call when their connection goes down.
For those who don’t subscribe, why have you chosen not to subscribe to Cox or Verizon FiOS cable television service?

If yes, do you ever watch programming that airs on VBTV, such as City Council meetings, Access Virginia Beach, Frontline Firefighter, How-in-the-World or the Planning Commission meetings?
