§ 5.36.435. Scheduling appointments.  


Latest version.
  • All appointments for service, installations, or disconnection shall be specified by date. At the subscriber's option, weekday service calls shall be scheduled as morning or afternoon appointments during specified four-hour blocks of time. For service calls responding to system or individual outages, holiday and weekend scheduling shall also be available. If the appointment cannot be kept, the Cable Operator shall make reasonable efforts to promptly notify the subscriber in advance and reschedule the appointment. A Cable Operator may not cancel an appointment with a subscriber after the close of business on the business day prior to the scheduled appointment.

    Subscribers who have experienced a missed appointment due to the fault of a Cable Operator shall receive installation free of charge (if the appointment was for installation). The subscriber shall receive a credit against the Basic Service Charge in the minimum amount of $20.00 if the missed appointment is for a service call. Alternatively, subscribers may pursue their remedies pursuant to Civil Code section 1722.
