I head up to Winni for the weekend tonight. Snowblow the driveway and my wife says cable is not working. She states only channels 2 to 27 are working. I call up metrocast and they say there was a glitch in the system and you were getting extra channels for free before. So I say I was paying 70 dollars for your slowest internet and cable for 69 dollars a month with 27 poor channels. She says yes. To get the same channels as before I have to pay 140 a month and pay 55 dollars to have a guy turn a switch at the pole. She says yes. So as she is talking I say isn't it cheaper for you VIP deal. Oh yes it is and you get locked in on price and faster internet but someone has to be home to change out the modem. I said I'm not sure when I will be back. What a ripoff.
