You guys want it from the Horse's mouth?
I'm a web developer for Time Warner in CA (that's about all I'll tell ya). Here in S.Cal, it's 3 months for 29.99 a month, then 44.95 every month after that. No contract, ever. We don't deal with em cuz they cause too many problems. Shockazooloo is half on crack and half right on.
There has never been a deal where you get 3 months free. We've done 4th month free (after 3 months reg. price), and first month free. Free installation is almost a gimme. I've haven't seen an account in a very long time that had installation charged to it.
Refer a friend, however, is absolutely valid. If you know someone with Road Runner already, you can print a coupon to get your first month free AND get your friend a freebee month. Check your local Road Runner website for that. Trick is to get your buddy to read his bill to get the account number AND you have to provide the coupon at the time of install, no exceptoions.
Sorry jagilbertvt, you can't get in on this since you've already got the service. You should all know too, that if you cancel and sign right back up with this deal, you won't be getting old email addresses or usernames. On top of that, you will need to return your equipment before resigning up. And don't think they don't know people try this. If we see a pattern of cancelling and restarting within 30-60 days, we'll start charging for installation.
Coolred, if you move and are stll within a serviceable area (like if you live in San Diego, and move to a different place in San Diego that is within a Time Warner area) the transfer of service is free. Best Buy does not provide the connection, Time Warner (in this case anyway, we affiliate with the Road Runner company, hard to eplain) provides the equipment and connection. As for your off topic ?, digital blows the doors off basic cable, on-screen guides, tons more channels, better quality, video-on-demand. But I digress. But to answer the 2nd part, no, it is not Hi-def. Digital cable means that the signal is delivered with better bandwidth and compression for more channels. Interactivity is possible with digital too.
So buyer beware I guess. We gots a good product, I recommend it along with a lot of other stuff, that I won't try and sell you. Don't get me wrong, I like screwing the system every now and again (anyone remember the best buy deal for socal residents....yeah...that was suhweeeeet), but I thought I'd eliminate any frustration or confusion.
Late!
. wonder if this would be valid for current custs (not to mention, I dont think I have a Best Buy in an area that offers RoadRunner.
