I have severe dropouts, pixelations, and no picture at times on all channels.
I am fed up with this service. Cant even get through to customer service. When I get through to somebody I am going to tell them they better give me a better deal because I pay $150 a month for this crap and the TV portion alone is $85 and this is just for iO plus DVR.
Still no Fios TV in Westbury. I'm about ready to just live without TV period and just get Fios internet and phone until the TV arrives.
I REFUSE ot shell out $85 for this garbage. My LL wont let me put up a dish so I am stuck.

it's back now at 8:00. Was it out in ALL of Nassau? I know of 3 towns where it was happening, but that's just rediculous.

Trust me, if I wasn't a die hard rangers fan and didn't need to see my ranger games in HD, I would already have FIOS, but of course Cable doesn't let them get those games in HD, so what to do?

It seems to be out in Suffolk now, as of 8PM. What is going on?

Sounds like CV had a major hardware problem. Bill is due 6/22 and unless they lower it, it's ADIOS.

This happens every day with CV. My internet goes out several times a day every day. My phone cuts to a dial tone mid conversation several times/week. Or my incoming calls can't go through. Total crap. But no FIOS here! Too many trees for satellite! What to do??

In this market, I'd have a better chance of Fios happening first.

I'm really getting fed up with Cablevision....AGAIN !! My signal becomes pixelated all the time, and now they're taking away basic cable channels and making you lease boxes to watch them. I have 5 TV's in my house, which would equal an additional $25/mo!!

Do you need a box for every TV w/ Fios?? How much extra do you have to pay for HD?? How's the picture quality??

Is Fios internet equivalent to Optimum??
