Hour wait?

Why is there up to an hour wait for Cox phone support?    Is support short staffed, or overwhelmed by hurricane Laura?  4 months ago I could get a tech in 5 min.

    Try to chat with cox agent. need to wait for at least 30 min to start to chat with agent and wait another 10-20min for answering each question. Sometimes need to chat several agents till resolution. 

    you may email at cox.help@cox.com. the service quality seems like the same but at least you donot need to stay on the line.

      Hi @JeffinLouisiana, All of your signal levels look good, I also checked your modem from our end and the signal levels look good as well.
