Re: [TWC] 15/2 speed tier in SoCal yet???
To be fair, I spent a long time grilling her on the details and at no point was she ever pushy or "offering" the typical propaganda; just answering my very specific questions (a good 45 minutes' worth).
If anything, the biggest selling point for me was the fact that it's all month-to-month with 30 days to get your money back. She went on to suggest what I was already thinking -- that I KEEP my AT&T/DirecTV packages for the first month and see if I actually like TWC better -- if not, no harm no foul, right? She then mentioned that her friends did the same thing, stuck w/TWC for their internet, but went back to DirecTV for television. That's an awfully soft sales pitch for such a big evil empire, and one of the nicest reps I've ever spoken with at a telecom company.
If there's anyone out there that wants to convince me that $50/mo for top tier TWC isn't better than the $35/mo I'm paying for the lousy (500kbps DL) AT&T DSL service I'm currently getting, then please do so quickly. I'm about to pull the trigger on this baby. |

The last I checked, the 20/20 package can NOT be bundled with the Triple Play except for in New York State. You can have 20/20 separate though. Sorry

I think I'll just order the (20/20)alone for like US$64.99/m with first month free since I'm still using the Verzion phone service from day one anyway... (Like past 10 years?)
it's all good as long as Fios's finally available here ...that's all I care really~~~
thanks for the input though~(I'll call to find out the details later today)
~Peace~

studio city broadband
I am relocating from the UK, where I currently get 50mbts service from Virgin Media.
As I work from home I need high speed internet to perform the tasks that I need workwise.
Can anyone tell me what is the fastest broadband speeds I can get in the Studio City area and from whom? |

Appears that your new "home" is served by AT&T for phone and Time Warner for cable TV. On that basis, it appears that best you'll get is 10 down/1 up from Time Warner, although someone above claims that their 15/2 "Turbo" service is now in Studio City. AT&T have a service called uVerse which offers a max download of 18, but it doesn't appear to have been deployed in that area as yet. |

TWC seems to selectively upgrade 15/2 (sometimes 15/1) into areas with U-verse also. Honestly with all the indian giving/teasing going on with speeds lately its hard to keep track.

Re: [TWC] 15/2 speed tier in SoCal yet???
I was 15/2 since December.
My modem rebooted this morning and now I am down to 15/1. So they are changing the modem configs, because mine changed. |
