Similar to the ConEd thread can anyone chime in on their Spectrum bill. I've had enough. In 2014 I was paying $100 now I'm at $215. That is a 115% increase well beyond 30% for even higher than average inflation for Cable plus high speed internet. My salary also increased by 120% but there's not much further I can go up right now. I don't even want the stupid cable package anymore but of course they won't unbundle it and they're a Monopoly in my neighborhood because FIOS flopped over and stopped trying.
Cuomo's feet need to be held to the fire... There's absolutely no reason I should have to pay for a cable TV service I don't use AND to top it all off they keep pitching spectrum wireless. I thought TWC was bad this incarnation is much worse. Feds are concerned about the Sprint T-Mobile merger. What about Spectrum Charter and Comcast? They are the bane of any customer's existence on the Northeast corridor and have got to be put in check.
NY Consumer Protections are cracking down on everything and everyone except for Charter Communications. That lawsuit obviously didn't do jack. They need the sledgehammer taken to the organization.

Hence why I cut the cord years ago. Even with a kid who was around 8 at the time, the transition was less than a few weeks. Check out the Mohu Leaf as a digital antenna for broadcast.

But what about for actual internet access. That's the problem here. Utilities generally have few options in general for consumers which is why it needs to be regulated.
I agree. You shouldn’t be forced to take a bundle. Plus the fees are outrageous. I am paying $250 a month now for Internet, cable TV, and one phone line from RCN. Too high! I called and tried to talk them down, and they refused to budge.

There is no requirement to get cable and phone with internet access. Spectrum has an internet only plan.
