No Signal on HD channels

I see from this closed topic this is nearly a year long still unresolved problem, and it  is now effecting my area.

http://forums.cox.com/forum_home/tv_forum/f/4/t/8798.aspx?pi278=1

I live in north Phoenix 85021 aka Sunnyslope. 20+ year customer, Internet, Phone and HD TV via DVR. $200 a frigg'n month.

I have been let down for the last time by Cox and severing every tie for good.

The last 2 weekends have been NFL football Playoffs, the AZ Cardinals have been on Fox 10 1010 HD and no HD, not available. A good 10 calls to tech support over that week and all they was the same jump tough the hoops BS of resetting the box when the problem was the box was right, the signal I pay big every month was not on the wire.

I proved this by taking the line from the telephone pole with no spliters  for anything, just wire straight to box and same result.

I even turned in my beloved Scientific Atlantic dual tuner DVR that stays on buffing 2 tuners all the time for this BS POS 'new and improved' box that does everything it can including shutting off to receive as little as possible, and even then I still missed the NFC Championship game in HD.

Well Cox in Phoenix, screwing long time high dollar customers like me at a crucial time for this community to make extra buck just cost you me and as many other people I can reach so they don't get screwed too, and for management, well...

Your don't take a company that has provided the best options in the past and destroy the service for even more profit.

Bye Bye Cox and the idiot that thought this scheme up to make more profit, you will never get another penny from me which doesn't really grow profits does it?

No, it just pisses people willing to pay for reliability off ,and you'll be a second tier company if you don't change direction.

My mini-box does not get all my channels

I have Cox Advanced TV Preferred, and my big box gets all of the channels it is supposed to. But my mini-box in the other room does not. It receives very random channels, and not between channel 23 and channel 88. So no ESPN, Discover, etc that are basic channels. Is this a normal problem or do I need a technician to check it out?

Thanks

We recently purchased an UHD TV and now I am told that I need a UHD cable to connect the box and TV in order to benefit from that picture.  Is this something Cox provides.  And will my current box support this?

In keeping with the "technical " aspect of the forum I would like to know if there will be another way Cox will be showing CBS broadcast if KLAS turns off their signal to Cox? I could care if you hold firm with KLAS but should be a way to still have a CBS programming station available.

My Mini box worked perfectly...until I activated it by the web

I set up my Mini box, and I had channels from 3 almost to 90 non-stop, then it skipped to the 900's & 1000's. However, I saw an email telling me I had to activate the Mini box. I clicked it, thinking maybe the mini box hadn't completely activated or something. However, upon "activating" I lost nearly all channels, and I now have very few channels, none of which I am interested in at all. Is there a way to Reset the Mini box to start the set up from Zero?

For now, I will have to reconnect it to the wall until I can fix this... :/

Using Contour, how can I see what NEW movies have been added to On Demand movies and HBO?
The previous HD-DVR (Scientific Atlantic) had a “Just In” or “Recently Added” selection.

Does Cox collect data on what shows are watched or recorded?

I see all these ratings on how many viewers are watching a show live vs how many are DRVing it.  Are those numbers just estimates or can moders cable systems collect data on how many viewrs are watching a show?

With CBS blocking Cox Las Vegas users from watch channel 8 will that affect their ratings?  If I keep my cable tuned to another local channel even when I am not actually watching it will that lower CBS's ratings and cost them money?

Saw this article on NPR and the WAN show and wanted to get other's opinions. Think FCC will win? Will Cox customers be allowed to buy their own cable box soon? How will encryption be handled?

Low sound on RCA red/white/yellow

Last year, when we moved temporarily to CA, we had low sound on the RCA output from the cable box into the TV.  It took a long time to persuade Cox that the problem was not our TV.  We had many Cox visits to our home, and we needed to borrow another TV to prove it was not our TV.  Eventually a great Cox agent came to our home, pressed some keys on the Cox remote to get a hidden setting, changed the volume on RCA from low to high and the RCA sound became normal.

Now we are back in CA again and we have low sound again.  Does anyone know how to get to that RCA specific setting?

Another subscription for basic cable?

Suddenly I need a new subscription to watch cable channels on my minibox? Calling the on-screen number gets a busy signal. I already have Advanced TV Premiere with two DVRs on my other TVs. Is that not enough?

For several days, I have been able to watch the KPBS station that I pay for as part of my Cox cable package. Why is this? When will this be fixed. I do not get an answer from Customer Service.

I am very new to this, please help me understand "network lineup not available"

I live in Phoenix, Arizona and am wondering if anyone can help me understand an email I received from Cox Communications today. The email stated that a network that Cox usually carries on their lineup is not available. Enclosed in the email, they provided a link to www.coxcommitment.com for details, but when I click on this link, it is just shows a bunch of "gibberish". I am worried what services are or may not be available would like to know what this issue is affecting (TV, phone, or Internet).  Also, if anyone knows of a valid webpage in which I can check on this "network outage".

I am not what you would call 'tech savvy". I decided to give this Forum a try, because it is late, and my grand kids(aka my IT department, LOL) are asleep, so I am at a loss to understand what is happening in "grandma terms" Tongue Tied.

Any one that could tell me if they also received a similar email, and to possibly translate it, would be greatly appreciated! Thank you and have a pleasant evening.

Why when you negotiated with channel 33 for Baton Rouge did you not include the Lafayette customers.  Here is is Saturday and we have lost our only NBC affiliate.  

Shame Cox and the station for disrupting what is suppose to be a free local channel. 

How owe long will we be without a NBC affiliate?

thanks
