AT&T (TCI)

Pros: Good, efficient and timely service
Cons: No matter what you have, in time it could be improved

A reviewer recently wrote that he preferred 21st Century Cable to AT&T (TCI) because the reception is better and there are better channels to choose from. Yet, I have AT&T (TCI) and have the many of the same channels that the reviewer noted he...

Pros: good variety if you have the whole package.
Cons: cost an arm and a leg

Where I live it is either AT & T or satellite and even that, the cable company has their fingers in. Or you can go with the old fashioned tv antenna and still will not get all the stations you would like. To me, the cable system is too high priced...

Pros: Very good reliable cable
Cons: NONE

I am very happy with my cable service (AT&T cable). They offer many channels at a fairly low price, and with the way they rearranged the channels it makes it easier than ever to find what you want. They arranged the channels in order of the content...

Pros: TCI/AT&T cable lets you watch what you want, when you want.
Cons: There can be limited down times.

I keep seeing people talking about how bad TCI/AT&T cable is. The reason this is a better choice then satellite is the fact that unless you pay extra and get things set up differently, everyone in your house that is hooked up to satellite has to...

Pros: good service, good movie channels
Cons: billing and down time

i like this service for you can have any channel to watch. and you can have a reminder to tell you when the show you want to watch and takes you to that channel. But i don't like the billing. who does,.. and the only bad thing i don't like is when the...

Pros: Choice, Service
Cons: Time waiting on phone

I have AT&T's digital cable. The choice of programming is very good, and you do not have to but the equipment. Their service was excellent, as was their installation, and when I did have a problem, they fixed it in a reasonable amount of time. The...

Pros: None On the New AT&T Digital Cable Guide
Cons: Don't fix what is not broken

I have been very happy with AT&T Digital Cable until now. Before the new guide I would have given a "5" rating and have recommended it to others. But at this time that has changed.

The new Cable Guide started on my cable today...

Pros: Its TV
Cons: too cheap,too many non-accessible channels

I have Digital Cable right now,and I am not very happy with it! You have 900 channels,but you can only access 1/3 of them without ordering them and 1/4 of the other 2/3 is PORN, or SPICE channels [not suitable for kids my age!], or paying 5 bucks every...

Pros: No. of channels, no additional equipment.
Cons: Disables many features.

I was very dissapointed to find out after getting digital cable that it disables many features on your TV and VCR.
I just purchased a new TV with Picture in Picture only to find out that it does not work with digital cable. Nor can I now set my VCR...

Pros: Not as much channel-gouging
Cons: Run by mental midgets

The worst part about TCI in Baltimore for me was the installation. I moved to Baltimore August first and it took me until September 15 to get cable installed. They scheduled four different appointments for installation. The first time the guy showed up...

Pros: none
Cons: unreliable

I have not had the need to contact anyone regarding cable problems since TCI was bought out by the Big AT&T. My dealings with TCI were a pleasant experience in that they were polite and I got the service I requested.
My cable went out the day...

Pros: Various Channels to choose from
Cons: Signal Problems, Blotchy Pictures, Prices Rising

My fiance and I bought a house in September 1999, in the South Suburban Chicago Area and both of us previously had regular cable. We opted to try the digital cable experience and have had a few problems. The picture is blocky through some scenes, and...

Pros: More Services
Cons: Monopoly

With AT&T taking over TCI, Media One, Palo Alto Co_operative and the Falcon systems in the bay area they are now in complete control of the Bay Area. They plan to institute local telephone service yet again and wipe out that rotten service provided...

Pros: good reception for a good price
Cons: you have to press the sales agent to even get this service

Ask for basic service. The cable company will quote you something along the lines of $29.99 a month, or more. What if all you want is TV reception though, (i.e. you live in a condo or an apartment or out in the boonies), and you don't need all those...

Pros: Decent selection of channels
Cons: Poor reception, atrocious customer service

Even with digital service, our signal (in Menlo Park, CA) is worse than analog due to problems at the head end they won't fix. Frequent outages are a pain as well. Indeed, even reporting an outage is usually a real hassle, and the guy on the phone...
