I'm writing this because I have just been amazed, seen a paradigm shift, found out that I really don't have to pay so much to watch TV and my favorite shows! Thanks to WNYCable, THANK YOU!
We moved a while ago and had to get TWC. A few weeks ago I saw an ad in the Bee newspaper about "cutting the cord" from WNYCable, I checked their website, saw they had a special going, so I called them. The person I spoke with seemed extremely knowledgeable and I set up an appointment to talk. I was tired of paying over $150.00 a month for TV. Hundreds of channels and we only watch about 6 or 7 of them it's just nuts. I need the internet for work, kids need it for school, I mean who doesn't use the internet but why do I have to pay for all the channels I never watch? Wnycable did a quick site survey and explained all my options, costs and savings, no pressure, just information. I watch A&E, TBS, TNT, ESPN, History and CNN for news and Showtime for the movies and original shows. My wife likes Lifetime, Food Network, Travel Channel and HGTV. The kids watch Disney and Cartoon. We found out we could get those channels and a few other nice ones like Bloomberg, Adult Swim, IFC and AMC, (Breaking Bad right?) for just $20.00 a month with my internet connection. That's it! Twenty bucks, no other charges for what we like to watch. Other channel packages are available for $5.00 per month. We purchased a system from them and a Roku from the Wnycable website and that was it. Wnycable set up everything, it was very simple. We are all big hockey fans here so we also got the system for the Canadian channels too, HELLO Hockey Night in Canada in REAL HDTV! It looks like the players are in my living room. I don't know why but the system they installed has the best HDTV I've ever seen, TWC never looked this good. The guy said it was something to do with them smashing 3 channels in where only 2 should be and it's not true HD with the others even though you pay for it. Whatever it is, it's better, a lot better. We added Showtime for about 11 bucks and the whole system is amazing. Almost like an added bonus we also get hundreds of free streaming channels on our Roku, movies, news, sports, everything. I found a bunch of free movie channels and watched Rollerball the other night with James Caan, it was great and it was free. I actually get more now and pay a lot less for it. All I kept from TWC was the internet and that cost about $40.00. $20.00 for the basic channels on my Roku, $11.00 for Showtime and I cut the cord. Now I save over $84.00 a month, that's more than $1000.00 a year. Yeah, life is good. read more
