It’s not uncommon for a cable TV subscriber to see dramatic increases in pricing just over a couple years time. Some reported cases indicate increases over $50 a month. All over America we are seeing pricing drops for all sorts of goods and services. With layoffs and uncertainties of our economies future, more and more people are taking a conservative approach in their spending. It’s a wonder how cable companies can still have the audacity to raise rates knowing their customers are paying greater attention to spending habits and looking to make cut backs. Especially since the satellite TV companies are lowering their pricing and actually offer better programming packages than cable. Unfortunately not everyone has the option to switch over to one of the satellite companies when they are getting bullied around by their cable company.

Commitment Plans Are Good?

Most of the time, people are hesitant to sign into a commitment plan when it comes to home services. But when you think about it, these commitments are actually your friends when it comes to TV services. Cable companies tend to not make you sign into a commitment because they couldn’t just jack up your rates at will anymore. You’ll find the satellite companies usually have a 1 or 2 year commitment. But that commitment means that you’re going to know what your bill says even before you open your mail. As long as you find a programming package in your price range, you’ll be in good shape with a term agreement plan. When paying month to month without a commitment plan you are subject to a rate change at anytime.

Stop Getting Taken Advantage Of

If you’re fed up with your cable bill being too high and getting nervous each time you open your mail, now’s a good time to shop around with the satellite companies battling each other to offer the best deals in TV programming available. If you have the option, then you owe it to yourself to stand up to cable companies while lowering your bills. Then maybe the cable companies will learn that people aren’t going to put up with random price increases anymore.

These days’ televisions are in kitchens, children’s rooms and even the garage. Universal remote controls are sold at Drug Stores and by 2009, analog will be a thing of the past…my past that is. These days high definition channels are on the rise and satellite T.V. is very real, and a leading competitor in the cable industry giving millions of Americans across the U.S. a choice in their cable. With that being said, cable companies from the West Coast to the East Coast are raising cable rates leading me to question, “Do these corporate bullies not understand that the American public has a choice in their cable provider or does the American public not know that they have one?

Recently both Comcast and Cablevision have announced yet another recent rate hike for their cable customers, and unfortunately for their customers this is not the first one this year. Many speculate that this recent increase is an attempt to force viewers into a bundle package agreement and a commitment contract. I am here to tell you folks, that you have a choice and an obvious one at that. Satellite providers like Dish Network are capable of providing service to 97% of the nation’s population and still growing. So make yourself a fried bologna sandwich, crack open a bottle of pop and rest assured that Dish Network will continue to offer their viewers the lowest cable packages, superior customer service and a growing amount of High Definition channels along with promising their viewers a $49.99, 200 plus channels, no rate hike until 2009 package…if only they could bring back Land of the Lost back in Dish Networks high-quality high definition.

You’ve heard about Superman and Spiderman and the tales of Mighty Mouse, but have you heard about the old lady in Bristow, and her little brick red house?

Her name is Mona Shaw shes the old lady with a hammer, Who vandalized a Comcast office and still managed to avoid the slammer.

So fed up with poor service, and the installer that just never bothered to show, And the supervisor who left for the day and all of Comcasts excuses and woes.

She decided to take matters into her own hands, Becoming a modern day hero and gaining lots of fans.

She smashed the receptionists keyboard, and knocked over the monitor, She even smashed the telephone…this old lady is hard core.

Later on that day police arrested Shaw for disorderly conduct, she received a three-month suspended sentence, and was fined $345 bucks.

Here is some little advice for that corporate bully Comcast, Rate hikes and poor customer service are going to send your customers running fast,

To your competitors like Dish Network, whose customer service is ranked #1, With 13 million customers and still able to get the job done.

With 24 hour customer service and mangers who don’t just “leave for the day”, It seems pretty clear that there is not too much else to say.

For more information feel free to call Dish Network’s customer service center, And please let us help you remove the corporate cable splinter.
