Chreees Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 This will have devastating consequences... Mergers such as this should not be allowed. Creates monopolies that brings competition down and drives prices up. Looks like I'll be looking for a new Internet provider. There's been a service outage in our area for Time Warner past couple days anyway.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/13/comcast-time-warner-merger-customers_n_4780438.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chreees Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 I already have comcast and my family is successful at haggling down the price of our service. I absolutely hated their service. I was paying $114 for basic cable and a DVR box, and $50 for their shitty internet. They had a monopoly on the the area I was living in at the time. Internet was out half the time and the TV would do the damn emergency broadcasting shit ALL THE TIME! Not to mention shows disappeared from our DVR all the time, or they wouldn't record when we told them to. Very frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawhee Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 What the balls guys? 10/1 (fastest internet I can get where I live) with like a basic cable package and tv box and all that silly shit is about 30-35€ depending on location around here.

Bawhee Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yeah, the amount of money is worrisome though. I mean that is a lot of money for simple internet service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
