Comcast Woes

Monday, April 21st, 2008

I thought maybe Comcast was “getting it.” They seemed to be on the cutting edge of responding to consumers’ needs by monitoring Twitter and blogs for complaints–and then responding to them.

Unfortunately the problems seem so pervasive that a simple campaign of Google Alerts and Twitter monitoring can’t fix them. The question remains then, is Comcast committed to truly listening and meeting consumers’ needs or are they just trying to cheaply control their image? I wish it were the former. I think it’s the latter.

Comcast using Twitter to Respond to Consumer Complaints

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

I don’t think it’s any secret that Comcast has an image problem. I have to give them some credit for trolling Twitter (or more likely going a Tweetscan), and responding directly to consumer complaints with e-mails and phone calls from the executive’s offices.

Do you see the value now?
