Krispy Kreme left the whole state of Arizona because of overupgrading. Dunkin' Donuts then chimed in and built new stores. Actually, Krispy Kreme came back in Arizona near the mall by my house. It took some pizza place. It's only drive up, you can't eat in, but they do have tables outside that you can eat. It's like Sonic in a way if you guys have them.

Everybody knows they're people who work at the cemetery, no worries.

We installed Cox when we first moved to Arizona. Repairmen were crappy. CS were not helpful at all and one told us to shut the "f" up.

Seriously? I would of filed charges if they said that to me.

While Comcast's customer service might not be the best, they were never that harsh.

If we filed charges, we would still have to deal with Cox. So, we just switched to Qwest.

Dish and DirecTV:

Dish as it is right now: They can get into television retransmission consent doodoo in one second flat. Charlie Ergen is a colorful character. New satellites coming on line to improve HD for the West. TWC HD and a unique weather system. Good DVRs. Not really sure on the weather system, though.

DirecTV right now: Soaring rapidly upwards. TWC HD and the interactive Local on the 8s with weather warnings and all (more modern than the STARs in appearance right now and up to date with TWC!). Heard things that run the gamut on DirecTV. Price increases coming March 4. May be the better option if Qwest is offering you deep, deep discounts.

Common: Lots of satellites, including stuff at the 110 West location (especially Dish) which runs through eastern AZ. Dish will require a 1000 if you want HD (110, 119, 129).

As with Qwest: We've had some CSR ALTERCATIONS with them, but that was a while ago and Qwest has seemed to take steps to get rid of the associated stigma in general.

Yeah, I'm in Chandler. Can you share why Cox is "crappy" to you? I want to hear what you have to say.

[Full disclosure: I run the EchoStar (Dish) Knowledge Base News Monitor (dishuser.net). We currently have Cox.]
