I'm impressed !

TBS HD
Food Network HD
HGTV HD

Still no NBC HD. Channel 2 and TWC must really have a good pi$$ing match going.

Might be part of the Variety package but I don't have the card handy to check.

I can't find it in Basic or Standard tier. Did they move it to Premium?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19005074 Mon, 03 Sep 2007 20:09:16 EDT Re: Time Warner Dayton Lineup Changes http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18976369 rds24a : So the changes went through today, but now I can't get ESPNHD. I can get ESPN2HD, but not ESPNHD.

Installation is free.

To be honest, if you're comparing TW "bundles" vs other companies RR and so on, TW will be cheaper. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18944228 Fri, 24 Aug 2007 20:10:55 EDT Re: Time Warner Dayton Lineup Changes http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18943969 rds24a : Dish would be about $50 startup costs (although it says nothing about installation costs...DirecTV's package specified free standard installation). Total cost (again including RR) would be about $20/month more than what I am paying now. So Dish is less than DirecTV but both are more than TWC.

I believe new customers can get the HD-DVR for free.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18943365 Fri, 24 Aug 2007 18:00:59 EDT Re: Time Warner Dayton Lineup Changes http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18942371 rds24a : IF you didn't receive your lineup change card today, the changes are effective August 29. Only major thing I noticed was that ESPNHD and ESPN2HD will be added as part of standard digital cable, and ESPNU was added to the basic digital tier. They are also doing away with all "W" premium channels that were basically the regular premiums on a 3-hour delay.

According to the TWC phone rep, you can add or remove supplemental packages (Value, Sports, etc.) without affecting any other rates, but if you want to change premiums or anything else considered part of the "main package" (Digipic 1000, 1500, etc.), then your main bill will change. Currently, DigiPic 1000 is $16 more per month that what my old rate is, so if I wanted to change from DigiPic 1000 to DigiPic 1500 my bill would go up around $25, with 10 of it going to the premium channel and 15 going to the price hike. No thanks. I can rent quite a few movies for $25/month.

EDIT: Since it came up, for kicks I priced DirecTV for the exact same channels and services that I get now from TWC. I would have to pay $347 in startup costs (including promotions mostly to account for HD DVR) and (adding in the extra cost of unbundled/no TV RoadRunner) would pay about $25 more per month with DirecTV. Note that the DirectTV price adds a few non-premium channels, but loses some local and HD channels because of local market restrictions. That's as close a comparison as I could get.

They've heard the complaint many times and whether they pass it on, who knows, or does management not care.
Remember my wife worked there for a short time. They could care less about anyone situation or complaint.

Time Warner > the customer

I've talked to many CSRs in the past and always complain about their policy of making any changes to your account will kick you off of your current pricing to the current pricing. They've heard the complaint many times and whether they pass it on, who knows, or does management not care.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18854858 Sat, 11 Aug 2007 17:47:27 EDT Re: Time Warner Dayton Lineup Changes http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18853917 rds24a : It was about $11 more per month. I dropped to 1000 as part of a negotiated deal with the, uh, "procurement department" last year.

TWC's current pricing page no longer says that equipment is included in the higher tiers...only the DVR discount. I hate changing plans with them, I always get jipped out of something and then I get the "sorry, you can't go back to your old plan...it's not in the computer anymore" line.

It won't be cheaper, but it might be *close* in price then you get movie channels.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18851592 Fri, 10 Aug 2007 23:55:48 EDT Re: Time Warner Dayton Lineup Changes http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18849016 rds24a : I thought I saw something about the government access change being effective August 27th, maybe?

When are these supposed to go into effect?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18848987 Fri, 10 Aug 2007 16:34:46 EDT Re: Time Warner Dayton Lineup Changes http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18846869 rds24a : Oddly enough, my bill did go down this month:

Last month:
Digipic 1000 + RR: $89.90
DVR: $9.95
Music Choice: $0.50
Program Guide: $0.50
Sports Tier: $2.95
Converters: 2 @ $7.62
Remotes: 2 @ $0.22

This month
Digipic 1000 + RR: $84.90
DVR: $9.95
Sports tier: $2.95
Converters: 2 @ $7.62
Remotes: 2 @ $0.22

Difference: -$6.00
I also got a mysterious $2.33 credit for service 7/22-8/04.

EDIT: According the the TWC-WOH web site, the going rate for Digipic1000+RR is $98.33 plus equipment.

Or will it go up since it involves work for them to remove channels. LOL
