TWC or Directv

Recommended Posts

Just bought a new house and will be moving in a couple of weeks. Currently I have TWC with the bundle of digital phone, cable TV with whole home DVR, and digital phone. Got HBO and Cinemax on 4 TVs.  Bill runs around $200 a month for everything.

 

The house we bought already has a Directv dish. Trying to decide what my best route is to go.  I loathe TWC but my service has been ok.  Not impressed with the high speed internet (I'm supposed to have the highest residential service available but it doesn't dress out that way). Digital phone has been nice, cable tv works 99.9% of the time but whole home DVR stopped working last week.

 

AT&T Uverse isn't available here so it looks like Directv for television and Windstream for phone and internet.  Probably would end up going with TWC for internet regardless because Windstream's top internet here is 3mbps.

 

Right now leaning towards going back with TWC bundle but if I can save a few bucks with Directv I may give that a try.

 

What say you?

get Dish, Directv is in a state of chaos right now after being bought by att.  Dish will give you much more for your money than any other provider.  Also you could go the Dish streaming route, Sling Tv.  your tv channels are streamed over the internet.  Its $20 a month, no contract. I can give yo ua referral code to save you $50

all I know is god bless your soul if Access Media 3 is the internet provider you get with Direct TV. I have had soooooo much trouble with them in the past, finally got it "resolved"

 

For a solid 5 months during peak use hours (i.e. 7 pm to 1 am), I was getting internet speeds of 0.3 mbps. literally unusable. I spent a few days on the phone with customer service (I'm talking probably a combined 50+ hours) and actually ended up figuring out the CEOs email and getting a direct call from him. I was finally set up with someone who completely turned around the experience for me as she was incredible and was more than willing to help. 

 

would have 100% left earlier if my apartment didn't have a contract with them, and they were the only internet I could get.

I've had DirecTV for about 8 years now, both in VA at my last house and now in eastern NC. There's no way I'd consider switching to anything else. I'm sure there are differences in service areas and maybe some things that change geographically, but I've never had an issue with DirecTV. I have 3 sets in the house and a 4th in the master bath operating off the new wireless Genie, which operates off a router- no coax required. I have everything but CineMax and Starz for about $134/month. Absolutely no complaints with DirecTV.

 

Century Link has my internet at 10mbps for $34.95/month; no house phone.

    • THE CHIEFS WIN ON A LAST SECOND FIELD GOAL BLOCK !!!!!! WHAT  THE fugKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
    • Denver's GW kick got blocked. Of course it did.
    • I mean he's making NFL throws in accordance with the teams gameplan of being run heavy and conservative with passing.  I should have been more specific and said the "types" of throws Canales is asking him to make. I did not mean he's made "ever single throw".  Nor am I saying he perfect or that his present play is good and we don't have a QB problem anymore or are ready to make a superbowl run. He also didn't throw any interceptions, made a number of clutch throws, good decisions and was one of the reasons we won.  That throw on the second to last series on 3rd down to XL was clutch and a great throw. Chubba fumbled.  XL had an easy catch bounce off his chest.  Bryce missed an easy throw to the flat.  A lot of players had chances to seal the win.
