I pay almost $300 a month. I am so pissed off about this. I already went off on spectrum last night. All ESPN channels went dark at 8 pm. Right when Florida/Utah was about to start. Billionaires fighting over millions while all of us pee ones suffer the consequences. Absolute bullshit. Lost discovery and all kinds of channels. I pay for the sports package too with acc and sec network. All gone but do you think I will get a discount or refund? Fuck no!!!!
So pissed. They better figure it out and soon

Why I ditched Cable for Streaming.....was tired of this petty fighting as Wayne said, by billionaires.
YouTubeTV is perfect but I am saving $150 a month on now cable/internet with a move away from standard cable.

My wife works for spectrum call center. IDK if you guys understand… but the people working in the call center doesn’t make the final decision about ESPN deals. lol. She is a supervisor and she said that a lot of her workers quit because after ESPN was cut, everyone was calling and berating them like it was their fault. Many of the women there just up and left because the customers were straight going off like it was their fault. Crazy shit. All i tryna say is… be mad at the company, but the lowly workers have nothing to do with it. Aloha

Rational people know that. Irrational people don’t care about the workers or your advice. They are irrational
Got it back but ended up losing a few channels that we used to watch like nat geo wild

What a F’ing joke. I looked at my bill this morning. It went up again this month. Another $8. Last month was $254 and now it is $262 a month. And they email and brag about a F’ing rebate. Yeah a whole 6 damn dollars. So I pay $254 last month and i owe $256 this month. Lucky me I get to pay $2 for losing a bunch of channels for 2 weeks and $8 a month more now moving forward. Spectrum might be the biggest scumbags on the planet based on how they treat customers.

And here I thought Directv was high. That's an insane amount.
A post a day and your access will stay!

Spectrum is a joke and the worst internet company I ever dealt with. They were the only provider in my subdivision when we moved to our current home. Fortunately, Verizon 5G came along. My wife works from home and we were basically getting about 4 to 5 drop off a day with Spectrum. We have never lost service since starting with Verizon 5G .
As for streaming, most people I know are paying just as much for that as they were with their cable subscriptions. I'm not buying for a second that people are getting the same product and paying less. The worst thing that ever happened was YouTube taking over the NFL Sunday ticket. We canceled at the end of last season it will not be resubscribing. In addition to often having poor picture quality, they also don't have the NFL game mix and new subscribers are too dumb to realize that the product with DirecTV was much better.

I cancelled my TV about 6 months back...simply dont need it. Nothing but commercials and lame channels. Can watch games afterwards with you tube and commercial free. Prices keep going up and wont stop...less channel selections, and pouring on of commercials every 5 minutes for sporting events, no thanks. I once called before this cancellation and accidentally got transferred to a strange security part of spectrum, and security dude spoke to me he was so kind and apologized that I got transferred, said that most reps do this because they get docked pay for cancellations LMFAO so they transfer calls!!! True and sad.

True and sad. You could have watched games afterward with Direct TV also (I'm not sure what that comment is about or why anyone would want to do that versus watching a game live). I have no desire to watch a game after the result has already been determined. If you enjoy that, more power to you.
