This is what Spectrum stated as the reason, "Due to continued rising programming fees charged by the TV Networks we carry, their increases will be passed through to our customers.

Effective with your next statement, the following
pricing will change:

* Broadcast TV Surcharge will increase by $2.55
per month.

* Spectrum TV Bundle will increase by $20.00per month."

I'd say bye-bye Spectrum.....!!

I use Amazon Prime, Paramount+, and Samsung TV+ for streaming. Everything else is just over the air.

The only saving grace is that my cell phone only costs me 14 dollars a month since I also have it thru Spectrum.

Sounds about Spectrum. They sneak raised our prices a few times. Switched to Gfiber 3 years ago and 0 issues since. Is nice.

Google just laid new fiber service on our street, so now I can choose between Google, AT&T, and Spectrum. But for $25/month I sticking with T-Mobile as long as the service is good. It's funny when Internet sales people approach me in a store and I'll ask if they can beat $25/month and of course they can't.

Lol, that's a good idea- when they ask me what service I have, I usually just respond with whatever provider's branding they're wearing

Many people have been wondering why there's such a big push to get employees back into the office as of late. The phenomena is often referred to as Return to Office (RTO) and defies logic on many levels. Work From Home (WFH) keeps cars off the road helping ease congestion thus aiding in the fight against climate change. It's also been proven that WFH generally yields better productivity figures compared to working in an office with coworkers. Speculation has been that RTO is being mandated for the benefit of commercial real-estate property owners and this new report from Inside Edition pretty much confirms that.

I am selling reduced-price tickets as a class project to the NC Courage vs Seattle Reign on April 27th at 7:00 p.m. This is Shield Award Night which honors players from the NCFC youth teams in the surrounding community. We are offering a 57% discount on GA tickets bringing the price down to $10 per ticket. This would be a great family or group event to attend to support youth soccer in the Raleigh area and also just enjoy a game at a great price. The link below takes you directly to the purchase site if you're interested.
