has to be my cable,too...they raised their price by six dollars...yet there isn't a week that goes by that they shut down for an hour or more while they are doing whatever..so the picture comes on...goes off...comes on..goes off...just happened on BBD...

what is funny...Not.....they sent me an e-mail saying if my service goes out during the storm....just click on....------.....just how would I do that if the service is OUT???? when they are having any kind of problem...I lose my T.V. ...my phone....and my CABLE....the dummies.....

We were loyal cable subscribers for well over 30 years, and recently my bill shot up to $185. I was outraged and had Direct TV installed. When I took my cable boxes in to cancel my service, the lady behind the counter was shocked and asked why. When I told her I was sick of my bill increasing every year by $20 or more per month year after year. We are good customers who pay our bills on time every month, so it is their loss.

Don't get me started on cable. We bundle our cable, telephone, and internet. We learned the hard way that we must call them every May to renegotiate our contract before it expires. If we don't, the bill goes from $155 to $240! AT&T just sent us a mailer that looks too good to be true. The same bundle for $80 for two years. There has got to be a catch, but I'll look into it.
Paws and enjoy life.

I always get disappointing when my sweaters pills. Any suggestions?


Me too! It seems like it doesn't matter if it is cashmere or cotton blend, 20 dollars or 200! You never know which one will pill! It seems like it is always the one I bought though!

I feel ripped off when I pay an ungodly amount for no-fault auto insurance. Michigan seriously needs some type of insurance reform

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

For me, it was paying $1800 a month for medical insurance and having my doctor have to argue with them over getting almost any procedure.
