Cable Tv rate up again - a lot!
Posted: Sat Nov 09, 2013 4:06 pm
I just opened my mail today, and found my Time Warner Cable bill is $74.30. That's almost $10 higher than last month. It appears they increased their charge by $8, and the rest is tax. My cable Tv is just basic; there are no movie channels or extras included. This is just crazy, and it makes me want to look at U-Verse, but I'm not sure AT&T's Tv/internet/phone package is any better for me in the long run.
I use Time Warner just for basic monthly cable, which now is ~$75. I use AT&T for basic internet DSL(3 Meg), plus analogue phone line, and that costs me about $100 a month. I'm afraid that if I go to AT&T's U-verse they will make me switch my phone line to digital, and even though it might be an overall $ savings, I hate the sound quality of digital phone lines(VOIP), plus my burglar alarm needs an analogue phone signal.
So... this was just a rant about Time Warner taking advantage of old customers like me.
