Ummmmm.....You already were screwing them.
They screwed up, and I took advantage of the situation. I know they have every right to do what they did, I'm not arguing that at all. I just watched 2 freaking channels, very infrequently. I didn't even have the other channels added onto the list in WinTV, since I use DirecTV for everything else. Oh well. |

You might be better off using rabbit ears before Comcast for local stations.
I mean local access stations. It would be nice if those came OTA, but they don't. I have DirecTV for locals. |

But now, screw them. I'll sign up with Comcast for local TV service before I'll pay WOW one penny for TV.

It might not even been from lurking in this forum. WOW may have done a standard audit and you were caught that way. |

Do you have the same e-mail address as your moniker for this site?
Yes I do, that's exactly what I was thinking. So to the WOW employee(s) that turned me in, you get a nice big middle finger! I only had it hooked to the TV tuner in my computer so I could watch the local access channels once in a blue moon. If they wouldn't have let it go for 1 1/2 years, I wouldn't be as mad. But now, screw them. I'll sign up with Comcast for local TV service before I'll pay WOW one penny for TV. |

I am extremely confident that there are WOW employees that at least lurk here (if one wants to equate lurk to monitor, then so be it).
Well besides lurking and monitoring, they should be active here and resolve problems that customers have. Especially the current Ultra internet and HDTV combo billing issue. |

While I don't want to turn this thread into a 47 U.S.C. § 553 debate, if one is using basic cable service based on coincidental availability of CATV signals due to Internet Only service, at least consider paying the $25 per month difference in the plan rates if you're enjoying basic cable. |

LOL... hmmm, maybe WOW actually does monitor these forums. Do you have the same e-mail address as your moniker for this site? If so, thats probably how they nabbed you if they did it off of monitoring this forum, otherwise, they just did a large audit to make sure unused ports are terminated to reduce noise in the plant and to trap out people who were getting free tv. But that sure does suck, you hexed yourself. |

I have had only WOW Internet since June of 2002, and there has never been a filter on my line.
A couple days ago, a WOW tech came by and put on a trap. I KID YOU NOT! That's the last time I ever talk about stuff like that on here... |
