They do this all the time. It likely only made the news that time because of the mass being moved. If you're in a homeless shelter you are at their will or you loose your roof and bed and sometimes more. If they want to move you an hour away, it's that or the street. You don't have a say when your homeless or in need like that.

And this is why I ditched Spectrum and went with T-mobile home internet. Never had a problem since.

Well that contract is up in October and will most likely be done, Verizon is slowly getting Fios lines installed all over the city, the monopoly is over

I have to see if Fios is available. It wasn’t before and I have had VZW in the past. Not sure if I am affected by the cities contract with Charter or not

64%??? That’s absurd

Of course they are. So many reasons to cut routes and they never bring them back.

Try thumbtack. I've found great people in that site at good rates.

Why do the French have so much more balls than we do?

Switch to Verizon, we got Fios in the area, gig speed for far less than spectrum. We were on 300mbps that was actually running 60mbps, once we switched (and saved 30 a month) we are at well over 300mbps, we’ll worth it

France is having a general strike right now. Don't even gotta go back in time.

All the rain we’ve had the past few days it wouldn’t surprise me if a tree or two came down and ripped a wire apart.

We've had him come out for a few things and the price has always been reasonable. He was teaching his son the last couple times so you may get him plus an extra hand for the price of one.

We are SO overdue for a reenactment of the French Revolution!

Yes, we use both. In 5 years, we have only had 4 issues with connectivity and none really lasted long. With theirs, I have all turned all off and run the connection through my mesh network. I get about 100-200 above my normal speeds now.

My speeds are back up to normal now

As he should!

My brother’s a plumber and does a lot of side work. He’ll give a discount to a few friends and relatives but has to charge full price for most other jobs to make it worthwhile money wise.

Do you use Spectrum's modem and/or router? Asking as we used to have consistent issues when we used their modem. We switched to our own about two years ago and started getting more consistent service and even higher mbps than with their modem. We got about 100 mbps more than we were paying for by switching to our own.

Might be worth looking into if you're using their devices as they can better control your service with their own equipment.

Buy once cry once.

I’ve worked for 3 major players in the area and I couldn’t have said it better myself. Pay now for good or pay later for bad.

1 week in. I’ve noticed less mice activity. Haven’t heard any in the walls. There’s been some poop but definitely less then before. Hopefully it gets better in the next couple weeks.

Maintenance calls for plumbing and similar work have gone up a lot with everything else. Unless you know someone chances are you’re risking shoddy work if you’re paying significantly less than a lot of other plumbing companies charge.

As they should. You went 1/4 of the month with no service

Like I said, your comment was dumb - my opinion - and I'm not sure it crossed any actual lines.

I hope the business thrives. There are many gay bars in America, but only a few dozen lesbian bars, and it would be a nice accomplishment for Worcester to be one of the very few cities that actually has such a bar.

You might not know this, but bars label themselves all the time. Have you heard of "Irish bars"? Or "jazz bars"? Or "piano bars"?
