DSL connection problem still not fixed

As I posted before, I am constantly losing connection. Techs have been here twice, once to give me new modem and the second time they cut and spliced line in house and we replaced cable from modem to wall jack. Still didn't fix it. A higher level person called my house and left a message and I called him back 3 times and no answer. Why doesn't Verizon just maintain the wires and connections between customer and Central Office? I have heard how bad they are. 

As a stock holder of Verizon, I am disappointed in the service.

Lawrence, you told me my case has been moved to a higher level and to check “My Support Cases” in my profile. I don’t see anything in my profile that reflects this. What is the deal??

Maybe I am not valued as a customer.

Do you know how far you are from the Cental Office, If you are 3 miles or more this could be the issue. Also if FIOS is available in your are I would look into that. The availability of FIOS may explain the reluctance of Verizon to rewire from the pole to the CO. (NOTE there is a 3/1 plan that I am on that is very reasonably priced) Good Luck
Do you still need to use filters? When I had DSL issues a direct line for my modem was installed, negating the need for phone filters

I am at 3 miles and the techs read that I can get 3.2 MB max at this location, but the signal is fluctuating which indicates a connection problem somewhere on the line.  I am using only 21% of my capacity at 0.864 MB.

Also FIOS is not available and never will be here. I have a direct line to modem, so no filters needed.

I see a support case open for you and that you have responded in the support thread previously.  Please check for the link to your support case in the middle column of your profile page.  Do you recall using the link earlier?

If you are posting from a mobile device besides a laptop the support forum won't appear. Use the desktop site. As I'm on the road now, here's some screenshots from my phone showing the two.

The "My Support Cases" finally showed up on 7-6-2013 sometime in the night. I don't know how I acessed the link the first time. It wasn't from my profile page. Anyway, I am communicating with them now. I am certain the trouble with the connection is out on the line now. I hope thet didn't bridge my line again.

I've had the same problem for over a year now.  I went on vacation for a week and they closed my case.  What a joke Verizon service is.

My Support Cases is gone again and have not talked to anyone yet. Still have the problem. Why do you people keep dropping this case. Is it because you have no idea how to fix it??
