Charter Communications Sucks!

Talk about fate!

Friday I post my hardships with Cox Communications... Friday night my cable goes out!

Of course I have a road game Saturday, so I had to have someone stop by once again with my girlfriend home alone!

Luckily, everything went well. Somehow, this guy was able to replace the box without making a clusterfuck! Go figure! My gf even told him the stories of the previous guys... :)

I am down to the last options. I have to hire a computer tech to come out and take a look at it. So when I get the bill for that I will call charter and tell them that they can just deduct the amount from my bill. We will see how far we get with that.

I've got Charter as well. I've forgotten my horror stories but they were similar. I think they just strung up fiber optic lines on my street a couple of weeks ago which means I might be able to get DSL.

I'm paying $40.00/month for one of Charter's slower packages. Of course they roped me in with some "special"

Well the weirdest thing just happened to me. I went over and hooked up my laptop through my parents charter connection and it worked, so, I decided to borrow their router that I hooked through just in case that worked. So I get home with the router and before I hooked it up, I decided to just try and hook it up directly again, just for shits and giggles. It worked. I am typing this message through my computer at home on my charter connection. Weird....seems to me that there was a problem with the line and charter fixed it. Oh well.

The bad thing about these internet/cable providers is they'll hire any idiot with a pickup and a ladder to do their install/service work. Lousy for customer service but cheap help I guess. It's all a raquet anyway.

I had some dumbass show up the night Isabel landed in Richmond at 5pm. Wife told him to leave the shit and get lost. It sat there for 2 weeks until the power came back. I snipped the incoming line, spliced it and ran a short run to my modem, works great and I wired the whole house and bought a router later.
