Looking for new Tv / internet company,,,,

[CrappiePappy]

150 a month for tv / internet....spectrum
It’s so so I suppose ....

Got Spectrum, too. $175/mo TV/Internet (no pay channels)

Problems I have are "price creep" and the occasional sound drop/pixel loss/signal skip (live TV or DVR'd shows). Also just found out that I can probably lower my monthly bill by turning in the old Time Warner equipment for Spectrum equipment ... which is on my "to do" list.

Personally, I was happy with Insight ... then that changed to Time Warner ... and now it's Spectrum ... and I've got a couple hundred channels that I either have no use for or can't access. Biggest gripes I have are : too many commercials too often - and - the channel lineup is in triplicate (same programs on three different channels of the same network at the same time, and my TV shows them all at the same quality ... HD channel or not).

I did that one also, saved about $10 on equipment rental. what a joke! If there's any worse cable than Spectrum, got it right this time "G", LOL, it would be Comcast from what I've heard about it.

Same here with Charter. I have Dish at lake (basic).

IVe been with Comcst for several years now and don't seem to get the service I need and deserve,,,Anything out there that won't make you go bankrupt? Paying almost $250 a month could go to some mighty fine fishing gears stead of making cable tv company's rich

I don't even bother with TV anymore, commercials drive me crazy. I get all the entertainment I want just from the internet.

Pay only for a basic cable package and get yourself a ROKU ($25.00). With that you can get most of the normal TV stuff, including tons of free movies and serials. And it offers an "ala cart" pay method if you want to include such things as NetFlix, HBO, etc.. However, with the ROKU, you have to have a Router so that you can get the signals from various satellites.

Tell me more about Roku please. What do you get with it? I’m thinking about just getting basic or dropping Direct totally. We are wanting to get WiFi and use something like Roku or Netflix.

I mostly use Roku. Too much crap on the internet, excluding c.com.

I watch free stuff from Amazon and U tube mostly.

I spend most my time piddling with stuff, couch tater, not!

Wifi is all you need and a antenna, I went from $250 to $50.00 plus Netflex and prime. Total cost $70.00 a month.
You will need to buy some in home antennas for your tv sets, they are cheap. Call me, I will fill you in.

Sell, all your Cable tv stocks, They are history. People are changing by the millions, I can't stand commercials anymore. Only live tv I watch is the news. P.S- sometimes!

We had Cable for years and payed thru the nose. Switched to AT&T and Direct TV basic package 85.00 a month. when there's a storm it goes out for a little while. I can stand that compared to hot summers and any rain at all cable going out then having to talk to a person that can't speak or understand English to try and help you. Hope they go bankrupt.
