    MAN! I recently moved into an APT that only has this as an option.
    This sucks.
    They have already changed the price on me.
    [I was just going to get internet . . .they told me that
    The internet plus cable would only be a little more
    because the internet was only 20$ with the any cable package]
    Well . . . now they are saying that is not true . ..
    [I got the cheapest which was to be 30$ - which I was thinking
    would put me in the 50~60$ range.
    NOW - I am told I will be in the 75~80$ range
    cause the internet and fees is 45$

    Now I am thinking of cutting the cable which I did not care
    for to begin with . . . . and get the Rokou a friend suggested

    Dear WaveVision - you can change your name
    but I smell your stench!!
    You are still OPTEL
    You are still TVMax!!

    and you still SUCK!!

    Please share your experiences with them :D

    frustrating!!

    No reason for this in a 4G Wireless and Amazon VOD/iTunes/Torrent world.

    I recently canceled my HD / DVR cable subscription. While on the phone the lady offered me $20 off my bill every month if I stayed.

    I declined.....then she offered free basic cable to go with my internet. So I'm paying the price of internet and getting free tv.....

    Not too shaby.....although I still hate Suddenlink.

    Whoa, what do they get by offering you free cable?? I'm assuming you already have internet with them anyway.
