Call State Attorney General's Office of Consumer Affairs!

Earthlink may be an option. I live in Greensboro, NC. Everyone call the State Attorney General's Office of Consumer Affairs. Flood them with mail and calls. Lobby the Greensboro City Council to cancel the Time Warner Cable Agreement.

TimeWarner charges $250 to cut the cable contract. Fortunately AT&T will pay $250 to get your business. I'm making the switch currently.

DIJOE, Earthlink is TWC. Just one of their fronts. Just like RoadRunner is another face of TWC via BrightHouse here in Florida.

This is a huge step backwards. Don’t these jackasses at TWC remember “pay as you go” pricing from way back in the good ‘ol days of dial-up access, and how it failed once an alternative came along? They need to slice up and ration cable bandwidth simply because they’re wasting so much with all their goofy on-demand TV options, but mostly because they want a slice of the free web-TV pie such as Hulu. They have NO COMPETITION in Greensboro and it really galls me to give them $70 a month for *non-digital* cable and another $50 or so for basic broadband. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you: this is the new benchmark for corporate greed in a slow economy, and was the reason we went to cable modems in the first place. If AT&T (U-Verse) and Verizon (FiOS) are listening: please, please, please give us just one flimsy reason to get these TWC parasites off our backs once and for all.

Dear all: for the past 10 years, when I write my monthly check, I enter the payee as “Time Warner Cable Sucks.” I suggest you all do the same.
