Last but not least: Cablecom sucks

Cablecom is making a record-breaking number of negative headlines: A customer service that doesn't deserve the name, private broadcasters that almost run amok or administrative failures that fill half a cash register show. Cablecom, however, is not responsible for the latest major glitch. Or is it?

Cablecom is making a record-breaking number of negative headlines: A customer service that doesn't deserve the name, private broadcasters that almost run amok or administrative failures that fill half a cash register show. Cablecom, however, is not responsible for the latest major glitch. Or is it?  
Around 15,000 Cablecom customers in the Bern area were without radio, TV, Internet and telephone for hours on Thursday. The reason: construction workers had severed a Cablecom fiber optic cable near Bern railroad station at around nine o'clock. The construction workers then worked flat out to re-weld the fiber optic cable, as Cablecom media spokesman Martin Wüthrich - who is really not to be envied - told SDA on request. It is not known exactly how the incident occurred. One possible explanation would be that one of the construction workers had seen Tuesday's cash register crash broadcast and now knows that he has ended up in a debt database due to a Cablecom misregistration and has therefore been unable to rent a new apartment for years.
