Cox Communications is issuing credit to its customers that lost phone, cable TV and internet service during the power outrages caused by Irene.
I spotted a short blurb in the ProJo last Friday about Cox's willingness to do this.
I followed their instructions and sent off an e-mail to Cox the same day with account information and the number of days we were without service.
Today, two days later, we received confirmation that we will get a credit for the four days of lost service on our next phone bill.
Obviously, not everyone has Cox as a provider. Though I haven't seen any similar offers by area providers (e.g. Verizon). I suggest you should check to see if your cable, phone or internet service provider is willing to match Cox in crediting you for lost service.
Whaddya got to lose?
