Went through the same thing with charter here in Wisconsin. Got a bunch of cheap cable boxes at $5/mo each. Just a reason to charge more money. The channels change slow too. But when I turn it on, it’s on whatever channel I had it on before.
Charter Communications Inc. President and CEO Tom Rutledge received a salary of $1.8 million last year, along with $3.3 million in non-equity incentive plan compensation and $225,510 in all other compensation for total compensation of $5.3 million.
I think you should stay mad.
As soon as you have the option to switch to Verizon Fios do it.
I don’t know what their politics are but their quality and service put all other cable companies to shame.
Charter is the only cable provider in many places.
Imagine Obama running that company, and you understand how Charter operates.
Limited choices. Bundle price jumps (then NO negotiating, you have to quit and sign up again). Crappy Customer Service. No more basic cable. Crappy box performance (sound loss, guide freezeups, limited DVR).
I quit their TV (got a good antenna setup & internet options) and phone (got a $50 voip box and $3/month service), reduced monthly bill by $180, paid for new hardware.
Anyone remember Sen. John McCain saying he was going after cable companies to offer a la carte and keep prices down ten or so years ago? How about you actually do something to HELP US, Sen. McCain?
