Time Warner Cable

Pros: At least the cable doesn't go out any more
Cons: Total package monthly bills over $140 are painful. Pixelated pictures perturb.

I've used Time Warner Cable (TWC) for my entire New York City lifespan - nearly ten years now. Being a cable company, Time Warner has been a headache for much of my time spent with them, but through the glories of deregulation, not only have my options ...

Pros: Very, very fast 24/7 internet connections.
Cons: Nothing is perfect: the pipe gets clogged here too at times.

A Cable modem internet service is at least 6 times faster than a dialup. That in itself blew me away after using a dialup service for 7 years and making the "big switches" from 14.4K to 28K to 56K. When I was in a small town and knew I would ...

Pros: they haven't actually killed anyone yet
Cons: they are evil

There isn't anything suspicious about the name. They don't call themselves "Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe." They sound almost respectable. Time Warner. Why, I remember Warner Brothers cartoons! Warner is a delightful name! And I can't think of...

Pros: clear picture for HBO
Cons: hard to use at first

This is part II about digital cable

After a week of having digital cable I think I can evaluate the ease of use and the channels that are available
First how easy it is to use. After experimenting with the remote and watching the...

Pros: NONE
Cons: poor service, price is too high for the amount of chanels you get

For many years growing up I had never even heard of the word “Cable TV”. All we ever had was the good old roof antenna and we would receive just the local channels like CBS, NBC, and ABC. I thought that was great cause at least we had something ...

Pros: Lots of channels, Programmable reminders.
Cons: Some artifacting on the digital channels, Channels under 100 are analog

Location: Houston, Texas – West side.

When we moved into our new home we found out quickly that the local reception was less than perfect, quite a bit less. This caused us to have to look at the decision many people are facing these days…...

Pros: reception, has the essential Food Network and the Travel Channel
Cons: too expensive, too many stupid channels

TV. Television. The boob tube. The bane of my existence. Always on in my apartment (and mind you, it’s not my fault that it’s on constantly), it provides for much distraction from homework, constructive criticizing, exercising and cleaning.

...

Pros: Offers something for everyone with friendly and prompt service.
Cons: Limited variety without watching reruns or sports constantly!

I've been a subscriber to Time Warner Cable for many years and I'm still trying to figure out what I'm paying all this money for? And as if it isn't bad enough that they raise the cable rates just about every year, it seems finding something good...

Pros: NONE
Cons: Poor Customer Service, Poor Service

I live in Texas and in the last two cities I have lived in Time Warner cable has been our only choice. Unfortunately we have no choice and have to put up with the worst service I have ever imagined from a cable provider that charges me 35.72 a month....

Pros: Good television picture
Cons: Horrible Customer Service and bad company policies!

We were happy with Comcast Cable, had them for 10 years, then one day we get a letter saying that Time Warner has bought them out and will be taking over our service. Things still worked about the same for another month until they started taking over ...

Pros: Not known to actually cause cancer or venereal disease, local channels mostly clear.
Cons: Wretched reception and reliabilty, customer "service" able to cause ulcers and hypertension.

Time-Warner is soon to be no more in the Houston market, becoming Comcast instead. Most of us who have it have called it quite a few other things already, none of them particularly flattering and some unsuitable for a family-viewed review. My over-all ...

Pros: A lot of channels
Cons: Everything else!

I had Time Warner Cable (previously Wade Cable in my area) for thirteen years. It was the only cable offered in my area, other than a satellite dish.

I'll start with the good things about Time Warner. They offer a lot of channels. I was...

Pros: Reception, service, clear pictures
Cons: Higher Prices

This is an update to a review I wrote over a year and a half ago on Time Warner Cable. Many of the points I made then still apply to Time Warner Cable. For example, their reception is outstanding, there are rare service interruptions, and the amount of...

Pros: I get to watch South Park
Cons: Pricy and a very poor selection

I moved to North Carolina about two years ago and I have to say, my old cable company wasn't hot, but Time Warner really, really sucks! I don't know how else to put it.

When I first moved in I called to have it hooked up and got my appointed...

Pros: large choice of channels, ok quality on most channels
Cons: still no cable modems in dayton, ohio, some broadcast channels have issues

Update 6/01: Cable modems are now scheduled to arrive not until Q1/Q2 2002 in my area. Who wants to bet it will be pushed back AGAIN? Only now I am constantly getting ads on cable to sign up for this great service which I can't even get. Thanks Time...
