TWC hate letter

[bleys]

TWC sucks.. but Dish and DTV fug out when it rains or gets windy and TWC still performs. If you're a lazy person who doesn't feel like paying less for a combo you build yourself, shut up

and pay your damn bill. You've always got the free antenna stations if you want out.

you need to upgrade your Ish.. technology has fixed these issues.. or else you had a dumbass install it (which is ENTIRELY possible)

My experiences with TWC were mostly good. Prices were lower for the channels I wanted than Directv, and their uptime was better than directv. Internet service was mostly good. I had some issues with their help desk, when my router went out and it took them forever to admit that it was bad.

Switched to directv because they had some channels my wife wanted, but I would switch back to TWC in a second.

As far as Direct TV going out in a storm, I recently had my equipment upgraded. Technician said they had fixed the problem. They didn't and it still goes out in a storm.

I have ATT... sorry, can help you out.

plenty of friends have the HD/DVR setup and it works great. I'll try to take a spontaneous day off from work when the weather is bad and force my friend to do the same just for you! ;)

it's obvious you haven't had DTV in the last year or 2...

you're technician is an idiot. also, please tell me he wasn't driving a "company truck" that was more abused than Tina Turner with a magnet sign more f**ked up than Steve Buscemi's teeth..

I never had any issues with TWC.

Comcast is hated where I am now, so I guess people always hate on the cable company.

Maybe I got two dumb ones in a row, because two different technicians came out afterwards, and confirmed the setup. I don't see how a satellite comms cannot be impacted by in some way by something as powerful as a thunderstorm. Even when I was in the military, our connections were sometimes impacted by storms. Fortunately a ship can usually avoid storms.

Hate, Hate, Hate TWC. Unfortunately, it's the only broadband/cable option in my area. :(

[Acewalker]

I hate TWC. This letter gives me lulz.

I have DTV and live in SoCal and even the tiny bit of rain or drizzle we get here it starts skipping and freezing up.

I'm getting rid of DTV the first chance I can.

[Shufdog]

I have DTV and it has to be a really heavy downpour for me to lose the signal and then it's just usually for just a few mins. until the storm passes.

cable initially comes in through satellite as well.. people don't realize you have to deal with the same issues. the major downfall with cable is the signal being spread over everyone in your area. unlike with ATT (cable), where everything has to be within 3000 feet of a signal booster. I can't tell you how many friends with TWC in the downtown area have a stretched screen due to this..

most people don't have issues.. but as with anything, nothing is 100%.. most things that knock your satellite out will also knock out cable (for the same reason)..

TV is boring. All you needs is the over the air free channels and I rarely even watch those. With the internet you can pirate everything (tv shows, movies and lots of foreign entertainment) and if you fear the wrath of satan for such actions, you can get Netflix for a lot cheaper than cable.

In the last 3 months. Road Runner has been up all day for exactly 14 days! Otherwise Road Runner is down anywhere from 4 hours to 14 hours a day! It's tough to make a living on the internet when you don't have it! :mad:

TWC have blamed my wireless router, (I replaced that twice finally going with theirs for $50 and $9.95 a month, still have problems!). TWC has blamed my computer, so I bought a new CPU, I still have problems.

The inside techs say it's a line problem. The line techs say it's a inside problem. And I can barely get wireless service in my bedroom even when it's working! (I get a better signal from a condo 2 blocks away then I do from my living room!)

TWC has blamed everything from Sun Spots to my microwave. (Which I NEVER use! I hate microwaved food!) Right now I have to refresh twice I order to get a page to load! If ATT DSL was just a little faster 6 MPS compared to 12 mps for TWC, I'd switch, even if I had to install a telephone line!
