Re: [Internet] How much do you guys pay for internet?

Weird. Your $35 is cheap and not promotional?

I got my monthly snail mail bill on 8/1/2013, but it didn't mention anything about a cable modem lease free increase (yet? currently $3.95). It did mention cable services' price increases like standard Internet ($52.99 -> $54.99).

Oh. I think I mean that they switched me to another promotion, that's what TWC said to me in the live chat. That's why it's kind of cheap. I think I should ask TWC just to make sure...

Or check here if it is available? »www.timewarnercable.com/en/resid···tes.html ... Do you have bundled package? Mine isn't. I only have Internet service.

Right now they are having the Back to School promotion for $34.99, same as the one for the summer sale. They said I will be moved to the summer sale promotion after my current promotion expires. And no, I don't have bundle package either, just internet. And looks like TWC's live chat is down, kept having bad requests...

$60?! Holy crap that's a nice price. How did you negotiate with them? How do you get to the retentions department, is there a number or you have to request for them?

How did you manage to get another promotion? You asked for it?

Honestly I don't know how I got my promotion, think it was a coincidence lol. I was contacting TWC via live chat for some problems, then I ask the TWC representative about what's the regular price for standard internet, the rep said $52.99 (at the time of the live chat), then the rep said we will move you to the newest promotion that we have. So that's the story, I don't know if they will apply the new promotion or not, since my old promotion that when I sign up with just expired this month... Was going to contact TWC to make sure, but it seems like the live chat is down as I said on my last post. I guess I will contact them tomorrow to make sure. I think you should ask TWC for promotions also.

Well, I am not too sure that if I am lucky or not, because TWC may troll me and say we didn't offer the promotion to you. We will see about that tomorrow. Do you really have to threaten them?

Well, threaten to switch services. They want to keep you.

I was thinking about some threatening plans if TWC suddenly raises prices, like AT&T serving 18/2 for cheaper price of the TWC's 15/1. Although AT&T doesn't serve UVerse in my area, only 3mbps DSL max. Would I have to use some lies to get them to lower me prices? Just wondering.
