AT&T U-verse

[mrsmaalox]

Does anyone have this TV/Internet service? I know it's pretty new so I haven't heard much. I'm thinking of trying it.

Have you done a search on this site?

Some people have chimed in before.

I have it. It's great! Now.... that they've fixed all the bugs. Great packaging... great picture, I get all of the premium channels for what I was paying Time Warner for basic.

That's what I've heard. It won't be available in my area until December, AT&T told me. Just in time to jump off the neverending-rising-price-ship of Time Warner.

"Not available in your area". Still.

Ditto. I have had it for a few months and the picture
quality is great. The support is even greater. You do
get action when you call and no problem on sending
someone out to fix a problem. And no more "it's your
TV" crap. Which T-W was great in saying.

Only gripe I have, and someone may have an answer
for this, is finding out what is on all those channels
they have. I know, I know, you have a on line guide but I
don't like sitting and going channel by channel to see
what is on. I have even contacted the E-N and ask
them to put it in the TV guide, their response: not
enough people have it. I also contacted ATT and
ask them to at least put it on-line....didn't happen.
They do publish a mag every month, but it doesn't
give any info on day to day scheduling.

But that is my only big gripe about it.

Thanks for the input!! I am being tempted by the price (looks like I can get maxumum TV and hi-speed internet for less than I pay Time-Warner). AT&T was recently doing the Dish thing, one of my friends tried it and hates it, but has a 12 month commitment. The only thing that makes me think twice is how f*cking ridiculous it is to decipher a freaking 10 page AT&T bill!! I HATE that stupid thing :madrun

I've been thinking about jumping ship to U-verse, but I'd like more info.

I'm tired of over paying at TW.
(Plus, U-verse has the NFL Network)

I also like that it has every FSN region, so that means MORE NBA!! :clap

True, very true.

i don't know if it works that way - i have 4 different FSN channels, pacific, central, SW, etc. - only FSSW shows NBA games, and those are spurs games. i don't think it works the same way satellite does. U-verse sounds interesting, but if they are monitoring file sharing like exstatic said they were going to, they can go to hell.

I don't even know what this means! :dizzy So do I need to be concerned with it?

So, they will be monitoring what porn I download??

Fuck that.

Hey mrsmaalox, did you end up getting this?

I'm thinking about trying it. We just got a new house and i'm thinking of trying U-Verse.

Whoa! Do you happen to have the link to the thread where he said this? What's that all about?

PakiDan, what were the bugs you experienced?

[ChumpDumper]

would depend on what you use your internet connection for :spinI never had that issue when I used AT&T. I guess that's in the future.
