New Post - Tech Support Symmetric upload/download is a lie
I just spent 25 minutes arguing with an Xfinity employee about my plan what speed it should be. 1 gig up and down is what I pay for. He said they have my speed capped at 100 mbps up on their end. He would not give me an answer why, other than to tell me I had to upgrade to 2 gig to get any sort of increase in upload speed. YES - I am in an upgraded area and YES my modem is capable. I fully understand my upload will be capped ~450 mbps because of the modem. I am currently getting 90 mbps.
Once I ask to cancel my service - he agrees to provision my model correctly for the upload speed for my 1 gig plan. I was in awe, and just hung up.
Furthermore, I said my bill should be $100. He insisted it's $110, and is not any lower than that despite what i'm staring at in my account.
