Um, at least here in Kansas City, we have experienced numerous instances when Time Warner has blocked our VoIP service to our mutual customers.
They've blocked ports, they've blocked ATA mac addresses, etc. They always deny it, but they continue to randomly do it to about 50% of our mutual users.
I think a phone company using reasonable means to maintain their customers, such as a counter offer at cancellation, which is what a port request is versus outright monopolistic, anti-competitive behavior like port blocking so customers are forced to only use the cable providers "digital" phone service doesn't even compare.

| Plus, cable can always keep the perspective new customer by insuring they offer a better deal than the phone company, which quite honestly they do not.

TeleCom, Time Warner has partnered with Charter. What would one expect? Surely not ethics, because it's not catchy, at least in Charter's world.
Time Warner has made delegation their friend and Charter is their boy, pure and simple.
Desperation makes one do strange things, and those two together make the perfect Valentine's Day sweethearts. Charter has been rode hard and put away wet and will suck Time Warner dry.
If TW has any brains left in that outfit, they would dump the Charter partnership quicker than the Geek Squad dumped Charter. |
