Re: Nice
They are increasing the price on RR, their Digital Phone product and we all know how often they raise cable TV rates.
RR Standard has always been $47.95 here, with an extra $9.95 for Turbo ... and it's a pathetic 7Mbps/384Kbps or 10Mbps/512Kbps.
You must live in a competitive area. Enjoy. |

| In this instance, a whole $2 for broadband and a whole dollar for Digital Phone. Wow that's bank breaking right there.
No, my only other broadband option is the Verizon's lame DSL at 3Mb/768Kb, and that just became available two years ago thanks to remote terminals.
Wasn't your pathetic 7Mb less then half that speed a few years ago at 3Mb? Here's a thought, be grateful for what you have, and that this is your first price increase after getting speed increases.

| All of you who think you're so deserving, and want 100Mb broadband for 2 dollars a month.
Price increases happen, Time Warner for the most part have not increased prices on broadband while increasing speeds, and now after YEARS a price increase happens and people act like it's the end of the world.

I wouldn't mind the price increase so much, but the cost to provide that same bandwidth has gone DOWN ... they are now increasing prices and trialing ridiculous caps. Since my area has no competition, we have the same lame-ass 384Kbps upload that has been available since the start.
Luckily, I live in a small pocket of the Triad that has fiber available to me, so I get 15/2 from another provider. |
