That's pretty much standard.

Seems like a bit too much, imo.

This is the only logical answer. They will cut your bill in half to keep you. Make sure you mention the competitor by name, they're trained to treat that as trigger language.

TWC sucks fat dick, glad I was able to switch to Grande.

You work with the options you have.

Or are you reffering to cheaping out and getting shit off streams and such?

No, I'm saying 150 isn't standard. It's closer to a bill for TV with at least 200 channels and internet, and when price goes up after the promotional period expires, you call and complain and they lower you back to where you were.

Grande is cheaper and faster than the crap TWC offers. It never, ever throttles during peak times or ever goes out.

I pay 45 after tax w/ a free modem @ 55 mbps down, 5 mbps up, no caps.

Got it down to 110 but had to cut down on my web speed. Just a bunch of hidden charges and taxes that really fuck you over. That's life I guess.

drop cable, get hulu + and Netflix (if even needed). Stream online from wizwig for sports.

I have money. And I can afford it if I want it. Just not worth it. Just because I make decent money doesn't mean I'm gonna throw it away on something I don't really need. I could give those extra $40 towards charity.

Wizwig only does the site hosting links they do not actually host the streams itself. There are some out there that are of HD quality you just have to search for them. There are also some other sites out there as well that host but I am not on my home computer or I would link them.

I got cable for the Spurs playoff run last year (it coincided with my starting a new job) . I can afford it, however we literally haven't used it at all other than the Spurs. Netflix is all we watch other than Spurs games. If I could get fssw and that's it, I would be happy.

That's pretty steep tbh. Any thing over $90-100 ain't worth it.
