What would these tricks be? I don't have cable tv or phone service...
 
call um up, and jus shoot the sh1t with them about how you want a lower price. No luck, then hang up, try again. Repeat until results occur.
 
Comcast sucks, I remember getting a bill that was close to $300 from them for some reason.

Cox is better because they are cheaper, I get digital cable/HD-DVR/cable internet//landline phone not Voip from Cox for like $100 a month.

Boy am I on the wrong coast for cable service. I've got Cox and the digital cable (box, no DVR) and cable internet is $108/month.
 
My prediction last year was that cable companies realize that the public is begining to wise up to the fact they have a monopoly and that they managed to remove virutally all government restrictions on that monoply.
Some type of regulation is coming and the cable companies want as many rate hikes as they can now to offset the reductions in their price gouging coming in the next few years.
 
Yeah, that'll be the day. The FCC is moving towards inter-technology competition (i.e. cable vs. DSL vs. BPL vs. wireless), not intra-tech competition.

That's what happens when you go from a republican to a democrat style gubment. Both have their evils. Republicans defend monopolies and big business, screwing the common man out of a huge percentage of their paychecks. And Democrats tend to waste zillions of dollars on humanitarian welfare b.s. when they should just let people die in the streets already.
