At least the weather has been nice… but it’s been gettin hot. Bellsouth was great for me though. We had phones back after 2 days, and my (sprint) cell never went down… Still no cable either. I sure have been seeing A LOT of comcast commercials on the couple of local channels that I can get…. of course with the tv plugged into the generator!
Hope everyones property and everything is OK!
Anyone seen that new spirit of south florida commercial on 6? I like it a lot. No effects or graphics needed.
i STILL have no power… sadly…the block next to us has power, the block in front of us has power, the block behind us has power…3/4 of my block has power…leaving us 4 houses in the dark. after calling FPL, they told us it would be a long time before we got our power back… ahhh! i think i’m going into withdrawl…and no generator either. i’m typing this from my grandparent’s house (who just got their power back today.), who still don’t have their cable back (and the problem is the fact that the cable is physically fallen, so it’s gonna be a while with that too).
I found out today, actually. Between my neighbor’s house, and his neighbor’s house, there’s a fallen line. So everyone from that point on on the block doesn’t have power (4 lucky houses).
Just got my power back. Yay!! ^_^ But still no cable. NO ONE i’ve talked to has their cable. Comcast has been pretty bad with their attempts to restore their service. Every other utility has their trucks out fixing problems; I’ve yet to see a Comcast truck. It’s been 10 days already, which means that’s a 33% (at least) discount I’m going to make sure I recieve on the bill…
Yay for DJB
My boyfriend’s brother got power on Wednesday evening too.
For us Comcast didn’t come back untill noon on Saturday, a day after we got power.
When I called they told me they can go to check out the poles only after FPL tells them they can.
And yes do call and request account credit for all downtime.
But you know, what’s really pissed me off the most, is that even though the cable may be out, the stupid comcast DVR won’t let me access any of my saved recordings. it just says “one moment: this feature is being restored”. so i’m guessing until the box connects with comcast’s servers, it won’t let me do anything (stupid piece of…)
Congrats!!!!!
Still no power here.
YAY! I was worried about you! 🙂
Sorry Dean, that really stinks…
Congrats..we got it, lost, got it, lost it and finally got back. Phone service was worst! Hope everyone is well and safe.
we just drove to Home Depot in Coral Springs and the car dealerships are in the dark and so are a lot of apartment complexes.
Dean hope you get your power back on dude I feel for ya.
I’ve had mine bach since Tuesday night. Cable was down until Friday. Welcome back to the light everyone.
Thanks Laura and admin!!

DJB, that must be FRUSTRATING. Did they at least tell you why everyone else has power and not you?
It’s amazing how much we rely on power and cable and internet and and and…

I feel for ya bro
My boyfriend’s bro don’t have power, the condos 50 feet away do.
Hang in there
Admin, do you think this past week’s activities will delay the unveiling of the rest of 7’s newplex? November sweeps starts soon.
no idea
I’d imagine it probably would.
In the little time I watched TV I didn’t see any November sweeps promos either so who knows.
Considering how many are still without power and other pressing issues I doubt anyone over at 7 is in a hurry to get the graphics out by November 3rd.
I could be wrong though
If I have not said it in the past, thanks for a great site admin.

Great to hear, DJB!
Thank god for that
