Chip and Cern Show


Feb 8, 2018

Chip and Cern always seem to be battling with the big brands and companies. Cern and Samsung, Chip and Xfinity and Cern and DirectTV. Sometimes Chip and Cern don’t win every battle and today is time for Chip to take the LOSS.
 
Chip and Cern have fairly well connected homes. Handfuls of Alexas, Nest cams, cutting the cord, Chip’s wife works from home, so they really use and blow through the data. Xfinity/Comcast instituted a 1TB cap on their data. Chip and his household has gone over this every month since it’s inception. 
 
Cern takes a few moments to rant on AT&T’s shitty router and modem. 
 
Chip has called in to argue with Xfinity about the data cap several times and this has become a stress point in Chip’s life and marriage. 
 
Chip has started to be a nudge around his house trying to get the data usage down. Turn off the TV when you leave the room, don't connect your phone to wifi and it is annoying to do that. 
 
Chip and his wife agreed to just pay the extra fee and rid themselves of the stress of data management. 
 
Xfinity beat Chip. 
 
Cern shares a story about Verizon and how they bamboozled him by adding an additional phone to his plan. Cern emailed the CEO of Verizon about his fraud issue he had on his bill. Needless to say he was not kind. 
 
Cern is looking to better his wifi, Chip shares so knowledge on “cutting the cord.” Chip really loves the Orbi router/ wifi mesh system and it took away all the spotty wifi issues that his house has been having.
