Do YOU need glasses?

The price of crude oil so far has done nothing to gas prices in the last 2 months. Oil has been up and down, yet GAS prices have remained about where they were when gas went up to $145/barrel.

Not to mention, gas prices NEVER really eased after Hurricane Katrina pushed them to $3/gallon, and Hurricane Gustav has set prices where they are now, because of the major refinery outage that choked the Southeast from getting much gas at all.

Also, can you NOT READ what I said earlier? Gas prices have been going up wildly for the last 3 years, and this is the first time that I recall that TWC has even attempted to raise Internet rates because of it. Not to mention that ALL energy prices have gone up. And not to mention that the shipment of new gear to TWC and ANYONE have huge fuel surchages tacked on now.
not in my area

it's only 3.45 to 3.50/G]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-TWC-Rates-going-up-in-MidOhio-21217549 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 03:45:11 EDT Re: [TWC] Rates going up in Mid-Ohio http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-TWC-Rates-going-up-in-MidOhio-21217299 Add in tight credit markets, poor competition, and the 'just because' factor, some price increases are inevitable. :(

I hate to burst your bubble, but in 2000 I could still fill up a tank for under $1.50 in CA, and regardless of how you look at it, the prices for filling up TWC's trucks have at least DOUBLED since then, and for a while it was close to TRIPLED.

I don't know the prices back then in 2000 in Ohio, but I am willing to bet it is also about double or more.

And there is more operating costs that TWC has. Electricity has gone up, thanks to the Patriot Act ISP's (including RoadRunner) had to install costly sniffing equipment in case they want to keep tabs on someone (and no, the government didn't foot the bill for those, the ISP's did and thus the clients).

Then there is inflation, salaries going up, TWC shares going down due to tanking economies, business credit that is whacked up, etc, etc....

I am actually surprised that TWC in CA has done so LITTLE price increases, I just remember one of about $1 on my total bill somewhere in 2007.....]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-TWC-Rates-going-up-in-MidOhio-21215425 Sat, 04 Oct 2008 15:02:59 EDT Re: [TWC] Rates going up in Mid-Ohio http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-TWC-Rates-going-up-in-MidOhio-21215335 do u need glasses?

They haven't raised prices for Internet SINCE gas has gone up to over $3/gallon.

So I don't see how anyone is a "lier" about it. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-TWC-Rates-going-up-in-MidOhio-21215304 Sat, 04 Oct 2008 14:24:32 EDT Re: [TWC] Rates going up in Mid-Ohio http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-TWC-Rates-going-up-in-MidOhio-21215082 said by maartena:

And then there are people that still think that "the fundamentals of our economy are strong". ;)

Price hikes suck of course, regardless. But hey.... TWC's gas bills for their truck are also getting higher

Price hikes suck of course, regardless. But hey.... TWC's gas bills for their truck are also getting higher, just as their electricity bill. I don't think they are lying when they are saying their operating costs are getting higher, I just wish they would just cut some more in the bonuses for the big shots instead. ;)

Also.... they NEVER "raise" prices of course. They "adjust" them. :D
