TBS picture/audio breakup?Is anyone experiencing TBS picture/audio breakup (pixelation & audio drop-out) tonight? I haven't seen it this bad in quite a long time. |

Forgot to mention it's only happening on the TBS HD (232) channel. |

Same problem here in Sterling Heights. Major audio and video break-up/tiling/audio dropouts. Happening on most HD channels including 253, the ID Channel. Noticed that both TV's in my house were having the issue and doing the same exact thing with the same exact break-up. Must be some issue at the head end. |

I have happening on all channels. Also over the past week form 12-26 thru 12-29 the stations kept losing signal. |

Yes, no picture at all on most of the channel lineup. Recording says Wow customers in Michigan experiencing problems. Never seen it this bad. First long delays on the phone when you would call them now this. |

You would think someone from WOW would post on their Homepage the problems and outages happening right now and let us know they are aware and working on it. I cant find anything on their homepage. I posted it on facebook and got all kinds of hits from people having problems. WOW POST ON YOUR HOMEPAGE!!!!!! |

Re: TBS picture/audio breakup?seems as SE michigan is having a outage again... WOW is really becoming shit very quickly... Comcast has been doing door to door in our neighborhood over the last 2 weeks. it might be time to call |

Re: WOW phones are busyI think if WOW just stops all calls and doesn't talk to their customers when they have a problem and busy signals them and disconnects then that is a company running from responsibilities. Fix my cable or I will go to another company who can answer my concerned calls when I have problems with my service..... |

Looks like WOW fixed the problem. Pixelation and freezing are gone. |

There was an outage last night for many channels in Michigan. This information was posted on our Facebook page and Twitter feed. Please check those in the case of a widespread outage. » www.facebook.com/thewowbuzz» twitter.com/thewowbuzz |

The pixilation and breakup problem was very severe last night, but this morning everything was back to normal on our TV. |

I don't have a FB and I don't use Twitter and neither do most of my friends and family. Relying on those two services alone to notify your customer base about widespread issues is ridiculous. A mass email would have been appreciated. BTW, internet was also pretty spotty last night. Couldn't stream videos or get a decent connection to a game server well after midnight. I am a recently returned customer after having a very satisfying run with AT&T Uverse and this is very disappointing to say the least. |

Here we go again...pixelation and audo breakup happening once again today (Wednesday) on multiple HD channels. Amazing. |
|
|
to keknapp
Yep, same thing again here in Sterling Heights. |
|
keknapp join:2012-11-21 Rochester, MI |
Seems to have cleared up no. We'll see how long. |
|
keknapp |
Nevermind...seems I jumped the gun with hopes that it would clear up...just not as bad now...but happening nonetheless. Reported it on FB since that's the only place you can get customer support any more. |

This has been going on every night for the past few nights in Grosse Ile / Trenton. Only 200 (ABCHD) and 201 (CBSHD) are watchable (both of which I could get OTA with an antenna). All others are distorted/tiled to the point of being unwatchable. Called WOW tonight and get only a busy signal. How quaint, a busy signal. This tells me many others are having the same issues. Something has happened to WOW in the past few months that isn't good.
Too much more of this and I'll consider a switch to Comcast- the only other choice in my town. |

Same problem here in Sterling Heights. This is two nights in a row that I can't watch football.
Dan, thanks for all the insight you bring to this forum. However, please tell your management that not everyone has a Facebook or Twitter account. WOW needs a better way to inform customers such as WOW's homepage, mass email, crawl message, etc. |
