[CATV] No sound Friday -- what will be the compensation?

This must be one of Cox most embarrassing moments:

Digital cable customers in the Phoenix market do not have sound on any channel except VOD due to a VOD issue today.

Engineers are aware of the issue and are working to resolve it according to the recording when one calls tech support.

The most delicious thought -- how is Cox going to compensate their highest paying customers for this embarrassment.

I've asked that somebody in your local market look into this matter further. I apologize for any inconvenience.

Well, I'll repeat that it effects digital customers.

Count yourself lucky if you have sound via digital.

Call in and request compensation. Assuming it only lasts one day: take your total digital cable bill and divide it by 30. That will be your compensation.

I had the no sound issue happen to me. It sometimes occurs if you exit OD by simply changing channels instead of using the Exit to TV option on the main OD screen. You can fix this yourself by going back into OD and exiting using the Exit to TV selection or rebooting the box by unplugging it.

Im one of the unlucky ones with out ondemand yet. But he said it affects all digital subs which it apparently does not. I'm guessing it only affects those with ondemand?
