Are ya starting to get more snail mail from them?

Obviously the reason for the new fee started last November.

They are hiring.   Perhaps the unemployed cheerleader for TWC should go get a job - they have positions in Schenectady for sales.

I can imagine it now.

Customer:   "Can you tell me what kind of deal, what package might be good to get X and Y?"

Sales cheerleader:   "Just sign up for everything, it's a great bargain, you can't beat Time Warner."

Customer:    "But I don't watch sports as much, but mostly"

Sales cheerleader:    "No need to try to figure out which is best, your best bargain is if you sign up for everything."

Road Runner was out for a few hours last last night, as was HBO.
When I called and played phone bingo for 5 minutes, I got a recording that said they are aware of the outage.
I wasn't even able to get a rep to tell me approximately how long it would last as I was due to Skype a company in Austraillia.
They thought I blew them off.
