CV can OFFER 15/2 but that does not mean everyone on the 15/2 profile will GET 15/2. same for all cablecos too. -- You can never be too rich, too thin or have too much Bandwidth |

 | Brighthouse in Tampa, FL is offering similar speeds:
10/1 $59 15/2 $69
Hopefully we'll see that too in more areas this year. |

 | Wow... I'm totally jealous of y'all on here. Wish I had the upload some of ya have.
Back in the states, I had Mediacom (Iowa) and Bresnan (Montana). Both companies had 3096 down and something like 196 or 256 up for about $55/month.
Now I'm in Germany, where on base, we have no choice but to go thru this place called TKS. The cable here is supposed to be 3096/384, but I never get anywhere near that. I think they have all these dorms nearby on the same node.
Big gripe is... I'm paying 89/month (over $100!) for craptacular cable.
They have some screamin DSL deals, but I can't get it  |

They make have the digital combo(digital cable and internet) for 10/1 and digital combo plus(digital cable phone and internet) for 15/2.
I had the 10/1 for a while but didn't want damn tv I just wanted to get away from that crappy 5/384.
It's more like:
10/1 $120 15/2 $150
lol I'd kill to get 15/2 for 69$ without needing to get other crap I don't want. |

 | Ah.. I wasnt aware of that. I already have the Digital Combo though, so it'd work for me. |

| reply to Trevorm7 I'm a RR reseller in Tampa and I emailed the business office to complain. I explained that I just switched my first customer to FiOS because TW/BH wouldn't unbundle the residential higher speeds. I expect dozens more if the first one looks good.
The manager passed my emails up to the people that matter, saying that they would respond.
They didn't.
Figure that.
It really sucks for TW/BH because their service is very dependable and their customer service has been excellent.
TW/BH customers are defecting to the dark side (verizon) because TW/BH is acting like a control freak.
