Hmm, that's odd.. my only guess is because I ordered it before the price got knocked up to $129.99.. but when I right click on the model, this is the link »www.amazon.com/gp/produc ··· fresh_T1 ... That's my only guess as to why it doesn't show the model #.

Will buying your own modem knock you out of your introductory plan? I just recently signed up for 50/5 (internet only) and I guess it's $5 a month cheaper for about 10 more months.

If I would have to pay $5 more I might as well wait for the price to come down and SD to get Maxx, if not then I guess I will get to experience all the thrills and excitement of this thing sitting on my shelf along with the rest of you.

My amazon order now states it's preparing for shipment, since I have amazon prime it will more than likely get here by Wednesday. Just an fyi, my order was placed on August 2nd.

Nope, all it will do is remove the $5.99 modem lease fee every month.

You can make amazon to give you a $5 credit. You just need to call them up.

My order was placed on August 4th at the $119.99 price and it looks like yours where it doesn't show the model either. My delivery date is still in Oct though.

Well now that one is shipped I think they are all going to start to flood out because I don't think Amazon only received one of them.

Mind telling is where it is being shipped from? Just tell us where the first scan on the UPS tracking is. Might not be able to tell yet as UPS might not have the package yet.

Can't see that info yet, but once it shows up, I'll let you know.

They have to fulfill all the orders placed weeks and months ago before they start shipping new orders.

Well I ordered mine on August 4th. The card I had on my account at the time was replaced for me by my bank (got it in the mail about a week before the news of the breach @ Home Depot was announced) and this morning they tried to charge that card. I had completely removed it from my Amazon account when I received my new one, but I guess it defaulted back to that one that was active at the time the order was placed.

Amazon has never charged me before until the item is ready to ship, so I'd assume that they have some in stock and are sending them out, as reported by a few above. Since my payment didn't process I guess it has sent me back to the bottom of the list. I followed the link to update the information but the delivery estimate for me remains into mid October.

Just checked my order from the 4th of August and it's shipping now to arrive on 24th. Unfortunately, I received an email from TWC an hour ago stating that my promotional rate of $65/m is over and increasing to $88/m starting on November billing. However, they will give me a $10 off per month "special offer" for a year or $75/m.

Looks like I won't even get to enjoy the 300mbps goodness at all. I'll probably be shipping the modem back as I'm not going to pay for the rate increase. $65/m is a luxury. $75/m is just too much and will only be good for a year.

I went from being very happy to sad in a span of few minutes. Oh well.

Sounds like you upgraded the same time as me. I did it because they offered me a free tablet and the $64.99 price was the same as what I was already paying for a lower tier. I know mine is up soon, but I've NEVER seen a email or message from TWC about my rates changing in the almost 5 years I've had them. I just see my bill go up and have to them contact them.

Have you looked at the 200/20 tier? How does that compare? You can still take advantage of the modem if you go with that one...

EDIT:

And after I said to check out the 200/20 tier that I could have sworn was there before, I log into TWC to see that it is no longer there. The 300/20 is showing in my area (Ventura County, CA) for $64.99 a month for 12 months, same price shown for the 100/5 tier for 12 months. I'd call them and speak to retention dept to see if you can keep what you have now..

Amazon's estimated shipping date has changed from 3-5 weeks to 1-2 months. Hopefully orders that have already been placed won't be affected.

Yeah, a lot of tiers disappeared. I only see Ultimate 300, 100, Extreme (30mbps), and on down. I'll give them a call in a couple days. I doubt they will budge on the rate increase and they also have called my bluff in the past.
