Re: [ALL] Cox Annual Speed Upgrade

Hah, Cox's website for vegas/internet said for premier the other day...63mbps. Looking at it now, it now read 50mbps. Ultimate read before 188 and now reads 150. They really need to get their words straight.

The 188 Mbps was with PowerBoost.

Cox Phx says the same thing now but doesnt say if the 150Mb speed is with or without power boost.

I think they're removing their powerboost stats from the website. Whether that means they're getting rid of it or not is still a question, but it disappeared from San Diego's website as well.

Yay, let's make service even crappier~! Chances are, they figured out that we figured out that it's a joke. Powerboost is nothing more than a marketing gimmick. Make us feel like we are getting something special when it is nothing but a tease. A slap in the face as they run off with the bill laughing like madmen.

Well it is the year 2013 now, and advertising powerboost as a feature is/need's to be a thing of the past. As speed's are getting a lot faster, and only going up. We are no longer in the age of the dinosaurs, at least not where cox's offers it service's. Plain and simple, Cable isp's like Cox, and comcast etc... Need to stop using this word, and the so called feature behind it.

Very much agreed.
