Think I could sue charter cable for mental anguish?

Okay, so I've tried effortlessly to get the only local cable company, Charter Communications, to run 1/4 mile of cable down my street so I can partake in broadband love that I have been so unjustly denied. I've gone so far as to flag down Charter employees working in the neighborhood to drag them over to my street to see if they could be of any help in determining what would need to be done. I've called, I've emailed, I've spoken to employees in various departments, including their construction department who said they would come out to survey the situation (never happened). A district representative did come out, but again never got back in touch with me when she said she would.

All throughout this time, Charter has insisted on mailing me advertisements for their services - services they refuse to deliver to me, or my neighbors. I even called them and told them to stop mailing them, but they continue to come.

Now, a day or two ago, I get a call out of the blue from Charter where the woman exclaimed that a Charter technician would be out to my place shortly. "Ummm, for what?" I asked. Her reply, something to the tune of "To diagnose your cable modem." What cable modem, you biaaaaaa? Why would I have a cable modem, you won't give me cable!

So not only are they mocking me by mail, now they've stooped to prank phone calls! I can see them now, huddled around the phone snickering!



Cliffs: Suck it!
 
Comcast over this way told us twice that cable was available in my area, and even told us what cable modem to buy (apperntly comcast didn't provide them at the time). So we buy the modem, call up comcast and have them come out to hook it up, no cable available in my area. Needless to say, we have DSL

I've exhausted the DSL route as well...too far from the nearest node and even though development in my neighborhood is booming and there are hundreds/thousands of new homes over the last few years they still haven't put in a new node.
