Pros: Digital cable. Offers more channels than Time Warner did. Cons: Picture will freeze occasionally.
This review was written in August, but was placed under Adelphia powerlink. After realizing it was misplaced, I am moving it to its right place, along with a few updates.
When I moved to Florida in August, one of the things I really...
Pros: Features, no need to install dish, convenience, better picture than analog Cons: Pricing, limited equipment choice, picture and sound quality
The Sadness of Analog
I used to have Adelphia’s analog cable service, which wasn’t cool at all – noisy picture, only about 30 channels at $29 a month. But several months ago I switched to digital cable.
Pros: provides all my favorite shows, automatic deductions Cons: costs, customer service, unseen price increases
Adelphia cable has been my provider ever since I started living on my own. They are the local provider in my area, and I would guess I have used the company for roughly 3 years. I don't think that those three years have been entirely pleasant though, ...
When we moved to Cincinnati I was very excited to hook up the cable, being the TVaholic that I am. Living in Columbus, I had Time Warner Cable, and figured in a big city like Cincinnati, I would be able to have the same, or at least a choice. Wrongo!...
Pros: *Pseudo-Latin meaning: Don't let the bastards grind you down Cons: Adelphia, you bastards, I won't let you grind me down!
NOTE: This letter was actually mailed to both the President & CEO of Adelphia, as well as the Western Regional Vice President, and the local branch office on 2 January 2002.
Pros: Multiple HBO channels, VH1, MTV Cons: Poor Service, Overpriced
Lately I discovered that I’m having no such luck with my usual household services since I moved back into a small apartment. I was having phone problems (that will be a later epinion), a roach infestation, and basically my college was giving me a hard...
Pros: if you got the cash, you'll get tons of channels w/a crisp, clear reception. Cons: sometimes looks "digitalized" for a second or two; customer service stinks.
How Two Broke Girls in LA Decided to Splurge on Cable
One night last November, at around eight p.m., a strange man with a tool belt knocked on my apartment door. He had on an Adelphia embroidered workshirt and a clipboard in hand. When...
Pros: Quantity and quality of channels offered, uninterrupted service and interactive on screen program guide Cons: Customer service; No communications between customer service reps and technicians
I have been a subscriber to Adelphia for over twelve years and to the digital service for a year. I can relate many horror stories over the years, i.e. service outages, poor picture quality, limited channel offerings and poor customer service. At present...
Pros: Digital is GREAT reception, decent channel selection, reasonably priced Cons: Few digital channel choices, few music choices
Cable TV seems to be one of those necessary evils in life. I will date myself with this, but I remember when it first became available and how GREAT it was. Yea, cable TV!!! Well, I still happen to think that it's great. I've had Time Warner for...
Unfortunately, if we want to watch anything other than 2 or 3 network stations using an antennae, we HAVE to have Adelphia's Cable Service. We've lived in this area for about 6 years and having had experiences with other cable companies in the past,...
Pros: It is TV, after all... Cons: Lousy service, Inconsistent Customer Service, Frequent Cable Black-outs
When we call Adelphia is a cable service provider, I think we are mistaken. A cable provider, yes, most of the time. A service provider, yes, if you're talking about poor service. I don't think anyone likes reading negative opinion reviews, so I'll...
Pros: Customer service people seem to be well trained. Showed up on time for installation. Cons: Service is intermittent. Outages persist for days. Customer service hold times mostly over 30 minutes.
It's starting to feel like the Cable TV industry is one of America's largest legal scams. We live in one of the most technically advanced countries in the world, yet somehow we're allowed only ONE cable company to choose from? If this cable company...
Pros: None I can think of right now. Cons: false representation on prices, little choice of channels so little choice for good shows.
I just moved from Houston Texas (where I had no need for cable since I had pretty much all the channels I really needed) to Maine a few months ago and had to take cable since the owner of my apartment complex did not agree to my getting a sattelite...
Pros: Channel Choices, Picture & Sound Quality, Parental lock Cons: Difficult to record shows on a VCR
We moved into a new house last July and were faced with several months of not having cable television simply because we moved into an area that had not been wired. Once Adelphia got their act together, we opted to get suckered into their digital cable...
