  • cable overbilling


     
    Every few months Time Warner sneaks in extra charges on my cable bill. This month the bill went from $119.52 to $141.31. The extra charges were Hdxtra and The Jewish Channel. We are not Jewish and the only person in this household is my 86 year old mother and myself. No one ordered these channels and when I called customer service they just give me a line of horse sh*t saying that someone must have hit the remote ordering these services but they would not remove the charges. I'm getting a bit tired of this recurring scenario. This is an ongoing trademark of Time Warner to raise... More...

  • Got Lied TOO< 2 Times!!


     
    We ordered TWC Triple Bundle on Feb 1st, 2012. This would be out of the Presque Isle, Maine Office. When I called and ordered the guy told me the line was serviceable. Then we got an other call stating our line was serviceable again. So, I went to the Presque Isle, Maine Office to pay the whole bill a head of time so when the tech came on Feb 10, 2012 I wouldn't have to deal with the money then. On Feb 10, 2012 the tech shows up at 8 am sharp. He looks at the line. Then gets in his truck and goes down the road. The tech comes back. He tells me sorry I can not connect you I'll... More...

  • GOODBYE TWC


     
    I have been a TWC customer for over 6 years, pay my bill direct debit so never a late payment. Last month I received notification that my bill is increasing $13 a month. I call customer service, there is nothing they can do for me. Oh wait if I get rid of my DVR capability they can get the bill so its only $8 a month more. Now why would I pay MORE for LESS? The service rep ALEX begins to argue with me. I tell him either get me the same package at the same rate or I will go to Direct TV. He then begins to bash Direct TV, then I explain that we have Direct TV at our other house, since... More...

Well you know what twc I just went down showed my id, ss#& previous address and they said it would be taken care of but now I don't want it.

  • "Roommate Policy"


     
    I phoned Time Warner Cable to set up new TV and internet service last week. After selecting a package that worked for me, it came time to set up the installation date. The customer service rep then advised me that I would not be able to get service at my address because the tenant who lived at my address/apartment number...5 years ago...had an outstanding bill. They refer to this as the "roommate policy". I've never met this person, and have no connection to them aside from the fact that I live at the same address that he did. There's more. By this point, I'm... More...

  • Fee increase monthly


     
    This is by far the worst it was been over the past 10 years I have been with this company. They increased my price over the past 2 months by over $20. The customer service rep Duncan was rude and prematurely ended the chat conversation thinking i have not saved it as soon as i stated i was going to contact Corporate. I simply wanted a credit for the increase for the remainder of my Promo period which i was told would not change in fees. More...

  • I JUST CANCLED

For an extra $34.71 increase I can continue to have my EXACT same services that I was paying $74.24 to have. There is NO justification for me paying an EXTRA $34.71 and not receiving any ADDITIONAL programming!! I understand promos end but if there is going to be an increase make it worth my while!! These 2 individuals did NOTHING to maintain my business of 3 years and auto paying (NEVER LATE) payment history!! But I will NEVER come back to TIME WARNER for any of my... More...

  • Very Unhappy Customer


     
    This review has been resolved or replied to by this company. I am an extremely unhappy customer. I tried to get TWC's attention today via Facebook and Twitter, and NO ONE even responded to my complaints. I had to look at other Facebook users' comments to get your name/email. I don't even know where to start. To begin with, I believe that you charge an outrageous premium for the (barely) mediocre services that you provide. The cable user interface is horrible, the internet speed (even your "turbo" speed) is sluggish, and your customer service is the worst I have ever experienced. Up until recently, you had a total monopoly... More...

  • Undisclosed Fee!


     
    I just found out today that TWC charges $4.99 reconnection fee every time your cable service is interrupted. I've been with them over 5 years and have never been made aware of this fee nor is it anywhere on my bill. After escalating my call to the Senior Supervisor Tammy, I was told that an insert had been placed in my bill in Feb of 2011 stating that the fee was going up from $2.99 to $4.99. An insert? Feb 2011? They disclose every single fee on their notices like the late payment fee, the service fee to have a representative come to your house, the reconnection fee for the phone... More...

    As a former C.F.O. of Union Bank Switzerland, I believe I have some pragmatic experience in delivering quality customer service to our global clients.My experiences with Time Warner, in so far as installing a cable connection has proven that it is possible to provide the worst possible ecustomer experience due to their nefarious franchising techniques; should you wish to complain, you must first discover through the F.C.C.,what franchising authority is responsible for a specific area; given that I live reside in Queens, I pursued that detective investigation.

  • Monthly payment for frustration


     
    I just spent over 30 minutes on the phone with two different customer service representatives, repeating my account informat three times, to no end. Your service has, once again, deteriorated in every way, and bills continue to go up. I noticed, however, that you continue to lure new customers with promises of a monthly cost that is as much as $40 less than mine - a long time Time Warner/Adelphia customer. Your selection of the most recent cable providers was poor. Searching for a channel is time prohibitive, programming the DVR has become a throw the remote task, and hearing... More...

  • The Epitome of Bad Customer Service


     
    The Epitome of Bad Customer Service Today has been a day of complete and total frustration. I have been lied to and hung up on by a company that I pay a whole lot of money to provide me service. At around 9:15 AM today, I lost my cable, internet and phone services. Perhaps not typically a big deal, except for the fact that I work from home. Thus began my saga of horrible service with Time Warner cable. Upon calling TWC I was advised to unplug my modem (I had already tried that prior to calling in) and that there were no neighborhood issues. An appointment was set for 24 hours later... More...

After getting unexpected charges on my bill, I called to inquire. I was on the phone for an hour, transferred four times, and in the end they didn't do anything for me except make me really angry. I had been offered a promotional price and was later told that I couldn't have that price. Each person I talked to told me something completely different and could not do anything. I cannot stress how much I despise Time Warner. I am desperate to change to another... More...

    In early October, my husband and I made the decision to bundle our TV, Internet and phone services and switch to Time Warner. This moved would have saved us about $70 a month.

  • How can they be this bad


     
    I have been with Comcast and then Time Warner Cable for many more years than I care to remember and it is has been nothing but trouble. I pay $150.00 a month for their services, so you would think they should work. Why can't they get their DVR service to work all the time, not just some of the time? Here is my biggest complaint. My guess is that their busiest days are Saturday since a lot of people cannot be home during the week since they are working. Why is it that when I need service, I have to wait 2 weeks???

    I added premium channels to my service so that I could watch Fox Business News on my kitchen TV at lunchtime. I now find that they have FBN on Ch 223 in my service area. My kitchen flat-screen TV was bought less than a year ago, but does not have channel service that high. I think it likely that someone at Time Warner Cable is purposely making it difficult to access Fox for political reasons, and I object. This gives me one more reason to switch to a different cable service as soon as it becomes available in my neighborhood. Professor E. Greene, USC More...

When we were ready to move into our new house, we called Time Warner to move our service to over to our new residence. I imagine that people have done this before (moved).
