Quote from: OK Cat on July 11, 2013, 01:24:15 PMi get the bare minimum for tv and just get fast internet because it's 2013 and i can watch anything i want on the internet.I'd do that, too, but my wife would never allow it. We're even still paying for a landline when the only people who call are telemarketers and her parents, for eff's sake.

I'd be interested to see what deal they throw at you...

Can you call cable/internet company A and say you're thinking about switching from Company B (but you really aren't a customer) and get a deal or do they make you send them receipts or whatever?

Because that's almost anything. I don't think they'll be blowing anybody anytime soon, so maybe lay off the hyperbole.
What if I call Time Warner and just ask if they will lower my bill. Will that work?
just hold off until you can get google fiber
