Upon calling this number, I was connected with a recording that thanked me for contacting Comcast for Business. I was notified that my call could be recorded or monitored and that I could learn more about the company's privacy policy online. The recording then asked me to say, in a few words, what type of help I needed.
When I asked how to become a customer, the voice recognition system easily recognized my request. However, the voice-activated menu wasn't very intuitive or logically laid out.
I was then asked to enter or say the ZIP Code in which I have or want Comcast service. When I entered my ZIP Code as requested, the recording told me it could not find my account; this was somewhat confusing as it never asked for an account number. After that, however, it asked me to enter these details. Entering my phone number gave me a confirmation that no account existed for me. I was then asked if I wanted to become a customer.
When I said yes, I was notified that service was not available in the area I selected. Then, I was asked if I would like to connect with an agent anyway. I selected yes and waited about 10 minutes to be connected with a representative. I did call in the evening, outside of traditional business hours — you may have to wait longer if you're calling during peak hours.
When the agent answered, they sounded pleasant. I asked them several questions about the areas in which Comcast provides business service and how to get it installed. I had to clarify my question when the agent simply said that no service was available for my ZIP Code. For this reason, I think their answers may have been scripted.
The representative took a few seconds to pull up the information I requested and provided some nearby areas where I could get Comcast business service. They also gave me details about the type of equipment available and the time it would take to schedule a service call. When I asked about the average time it takes to get technician service for hardware issues, the agent responded that this varied depending on the number of technicians and service requests in my area. The representative was knowledgeable about the costs associated with service and installation but did not offer me any type of promotion.
The person I spoke to had a thick accent and was a little difficult to understand, but eventually answered all my questions to my satisfaction. Overall, between the menu and the agent I spoke to, my experience with Comcast's business customer service was a little frustrating at times.

GetHuman does not provide call center services or customer support operations for Comcast. The two organizations are not related. GetHuman builds free tools, researches information, and shares tips and tricks from other consumers to help customers of companies like Comcast. That can include tools such as our GetHuman Phone, which allows you to call a company but skip the part where you wait on the line to get a live human rep, or talk to a company's customer service operation for you. GetHuman believes that this fills an important gap between fragmented support models, makes the customer care experience more uniform, and even answers questions that businesses and agencies are reluctant to answer (but shouldn't be) - making the customer experience less confusing for all. We continue to work on these tools to help customers like you (and ourselves!) navigate the messy phone menus, hold times, and confusion with customer service. As long as you keep sharing it with others, we'll keep improving it.
