Thats why I'm getting Fios.

Well I see alot of satellite dishes on roofs that all I can say. The thing I dont like about satellite is if something goes wrong you can be up a creek for awhile not to mention repair charges. What would really be cool is if they had RFD-TV, heck, Fios dont even have that, RFD is satellite only...

So I can take my SA8300 and get an HD version which will convert the HD channels so I can watch them on my TV. Well that's pretty darn cool! The new VOD's sound good too. Hopefully CV is feeling the heat from Fios and it is forcing them to improve.

And we dont have BBC America. I remember complaining years ago about this, its a joke, every TV provider has BBC America except Cablevision. I have seen BBC America ads posted at the Long island RR stations, pretty funny since no one can watch it. Well actually most ppl here have satellite TV...

I have had service here, things have improved somewhat, I didn't know what they did with the wire outside but the pixelation/net dropouts have been reduced significantly. Still doesn't bring me BBC America, DIY,etc though. But when Fios comes here (whenever that is) I'll prob switch. A big issue...

Get Fios. Fiber-Optics to the home can carry alot more information than some 20 year old coax can. I dont even have an HDTV, just a tube set and I cant stand the iO PQ. Anytime there's fast motion it pixelates. I've seen Fios and the PQ is loads better and there's no pixelation. I will be...

At least the power and water don't shut down for no reason and pixelate.:rolleyes:

Having problems with all 3 services. Tests I've done online and on my cable box dont show signal level issues, but I am having quite a bit of packet loss. The Optononline is just about useless while trying to upload full resolution photos (1-2MP each). Often gets stuck and hangs, then I have to...

Figures the middle of nowhere areas like Bayville will get Fios TV before Westbury does. We'll probably be the last town on Long Island to get it.

Bad enough they raised my bill to almost $146. But lately the service is awful. My TV is having pixelation and sound dropouts, both on recorded and live programs. Seems to happen most in the evenings. I am having Optimum Voice issues as well, calls are getting dropped frequently and people...

They dont even carry BBC America! They keep hiking TV rates, but they haven't given us what we want! My cable bill is up to $146 a month, it is such a ripoff, nor can I afford it.

Problem is...no Fios here in Westbury. I'm still waiting.....move it Verizon!

I have all 3 services with an optimum rewards discount(OV,iO, Oo), yet I am now paying $146! I dont even have a silver package, the only "extra" I have is DVR, which is kind of a must with all the commercials on shows these days. It's gone up nearly $10 in the past year, it's getting...

THE TUBE MUSIC NETWORK It's a shame, they played some great obscure music on there. VH1 classic used to be good, but too much talk now.

All I know is the changes are for the better. I really like the Adult Top 40 channel and Lite Hits sounds better now. The lineup here seems correct in Nassau. Finally the formats are more similar to offerings of competitors such as muzak,etc.

They did this last week and I have to say it was long overdue! I was *THIS* close to getting an FTA system for muzak but now I don't need to. The adjusted formats sound great. Soft Rock has become Lite Hits and focuses on softer music now, more variety and deeper playlists, even hearing some...

I haven't been late on anything, I've never even taken out a loan or had a credit card. I do have a debit card from my bank that goes through as a credit card but never overdrafted on that. This whole process just turns my off from getting satellite TV in the 1st place.:(

But I do pay my bills on time, so why do I always do poorly on credit checks? Cablevision has gotten their bills ontime and paid in full ever since I started with them (like 5 years ago!). Haven't been late or missed one payment. I understand the need to weed out delinquent customers, but I've...

It's one thing to ask for an SS number, but to make people with bad or no credit have lay out an extra $200 or so, people who often dont have extra money lying around like that, is bad business. I'm looking into Direct TV now, hopefully I can get set up with them. Yeah I'd "rent" the reciever...

Is this why my cable box just rebooted? I dont have an HD box though, nor an HD set, so these additions are of no use to me. What would be is some more channels like BBC America,etc.

Ridiculous, meanwhile I see these dishes on overcrowded illegal rentals all over. All these arcane rules only punish good citizens. Those with bad credit and criminals, as well as those illegally in the country, find a way to get service anyway. Hate to bring politics into it, but it's all part...

I may be fed up but I am stuck with Cablevision. I was reading that the dish free installation they ask you for your social security number and run a credit check on you. The problem is due to a disability I have no credit and will not get approved and they would want a $200 deposit which I...

What is everyone's opinion on the music choice channels? I noticed that the dish companies have partnered with a satellite radio company (like Dish and Siruis). I think it would be a good idea to add siruis to cablevision, even if the sirius subscription fee is charged. The sirius radios still...

Is Cablevision ever going to carry BBC America and Boomerang, which seem to be available on every other cable and satellite system in the USA? I've always wondered why they aren't adding these channels, esp when they are avail everywhere else.

I also use the DVR alot, on demand not so much. If a dish costs me more I'd stick with cable. But I figured out it would be slightly less even with the dish for TV. The only extra costs I would have to deal with is the $49.99 activation fee, but DISH says if I stay with them for 18 months that...
