Stop blaming Cox, you whiners!
Since I first discovered this forum I've read many dozens of questions in which users blame Cox for their email or internet problems. Many others chime in with posts like "Yeah, I have the same problem" or something like "Me too. I'm sick of it. Cox **" But have these whiners called Cox technical support, describing their problem in an intelligible and thoroughly descriptive manner? I can surmise from the posts and replies that the answer is mostly "No". My experience with Cox has been more then satisfactory. I did have to call Cox technical support once for a modem issue that only they could resolve.. And they did, in a heartbeat. If you have internet problems and your device is a PC then I can tell you the primary source of such problems are: - Registry cleaners like Ccleaner et al. If you let programs such as this modify your registry you might as well reinstall Wndows to get it working properly again. - Installing device drivers from "who knows where". - 3rd-party ant-malware software. You don't need that **. Rely on Windows Defender. - Editing your registry or configuration based on info from non-Microsoft websites or upon the advice of your neighbor's cousin's 14 year old "PC guru" son. And the list goes on. I'm an EE and certified IT specialist. Let Windows take care of itself. Uninstall 3rd party anti-malware software. Don't install drivers from ANY of the many "device driver" sites. Don't open emails from sources you don't recognize and don't go browsing where you shouldn't be browsing. Or you could install one of the many Linux distros. But if you're not an expert coder you'll find yourself up the creak without a paddle. At this point all I can say is that I'm running Window 10 with all current updates installed and my device drivers are maintained by appropriate sources. Windows runs great and my Cox internet connectivity is impeccable. If you have a problem, call Cox. Most of the recommendations you may receive here are 3rd party misinformation, even from the moderator (sorry, whoever you are but dems da facts).
Cox data use meter is WHACK
First, I'd like to say that I have been a Cox customer for about 15 years now and the longer I've been with them the more $$$ I pay for worse service. I'd love to switch but unfortunately there's no other internet provider to the apartment complex that I live in. I will also say that I have worked for another ISP as a tier 2 technician; I know my $hit and I know there's a problem here. Back in mid 2017 I received an email regarding the new data caps that Cox was planning to roll out. The email advised me that since I'd NEVER EXCEEDED 300GB of data use in one billing cycle that I'd most likely not be affected by the new 1TB (1,020GB) cap that was being rolled out. On my Sep-Oct bill the Cox meter showed I'd use 149GB of data but then all hell broke lose. I find it awfully odd that the very month that Cox begins charging for data use over 1TB, my use suddenly jumped to 1,020 GB on my Oct-Nov billing cycle. Then on the Nov-Dec bill I saw a whopping 1,135GB of data! Funny though, on Nov 30th (which is about midway in the billing cycle) I had a tech out because I was experiencing severe packet loss, latency and frequent modem reboots. I was told that the wiring to our apt was too short for it to be cut any more and that he would hook us up to the lines for another unit for now. If we had future problems then Cox would have to get permission from the manager to install new lines to our unit. On Dec 16th I began requesting all of our data use logs from Jan 2017 to the current billing cycle; they are not available online to the customer. I was told that a ticket would be opened to escalate my request. ***TICKET OPENED*** I called again on Jan 4th I spoke with a tier 2 tech who advised they could see there were still signal issues and a tech was scheduled to come out 01/05/2018. I also expressed my concerns regarding my supposed data use which was an absolutely INSANE 1,135GB on my Dec-Jan billing cycle. Tier 2 adv that ticket would be passed to the "back end" because I was requesting the data use logs and he said all the tier 1 has access to is "what's online". I was asking for my data use logs from May 2016 through the current billing cycle. Please note that the ticket was never "touched" by anyone and I had never been given the logs nor had I been contacted. Jan 6th I called again because I was "over" my data limit and I ended up upgrading to the additional 500GB per month for $29.99 extra. I also had another tech out due to packet loss, latency and frequent modem reboots. After having upgraded my end data use for my Dec-Jan billing cycle was1,135GB. ***TICKET STILL OPEN*** Jan 17th I upgraded to the UNLIMITED data plan because I was so close to exceeding the additional 500 GB plan on the Dec-Jan billing cycle. I also chatted with tech support online and here's some of what the tech had to say.... Bastian G. at 10:01, Jan 17: I understand how frustrating this can be Misty, since you said that you are totally sure that this should not be like this, I would like to escalate this problem to a higher department that are in charge to verify the data usage, if there is any discrepancy they will be able to notice about it and correct it. Misty at 10:02, Jan 17: Plus I'm still waiting to get the data usage logs for 01/01/17 through 12/31/17. Bastian G. at 10:03, Jan 17: Yes, I can see that one in my system, however it has not been solved yet, I will update this escalation and place it as a high priority one Misty, I want to get this solved as soon as it is possible for you. Bastian G. at 10:05, Jan 17: No, that is not the issue in this case that does not happen, this data usage discrepancy happens due to a system error. Bastian G. at 10:05, Jan 17: I have updated the escalation for you Misty Misty Cahal at 10:05, Jan 17: Any idea when I should hear back? Bastian G. at 10:06, Jan 17: You should be notified within 24 to 48 hours, since I have left clear notations about this problem has not been solved in a long time. ***TICKET STILL OPEN and now escalated*** Today, Jan 28th, I contacted tech support online again and guess what? The ticket is STILL OPEN and no one has touched it. Honestly.... I'm calling **. Let's do a quick recap... Sept-Oct: 149GB data Oct-Nov: 1,020GB data (DATA CAP GOES IN TO EFFECT) Nov-Dec:1,135GB data Dec-Jan: 1,328GB data My wireless is secured (I even changed the password back in Dec), I constantly monitor the devices connected to my network to verify only my devices are on, I verified that the ONE PC in my home does not have any viruses/malware and no torrenting is done in my home. Absolutely nothing has changed on my end. There is something messed up on Cox's end here and I am PAYING for it!!!! If this doesn't get resolved soon then I will be forced to seek legal help because I was injured at work and have been on workman's comp for some months now and I simply can't afford this. Signed, Misty a pissed off C***** customer
