Cablevision

Pros: clear picture and sound
Cons: too expensive; don't live up to their end of the bargain

I am writing in behalf of a dear friend of mine. She is a subscriber of Cablevision in the Brookline Boston. To the point, they showed up late for installation breaching their promise of on-time service. After he was ready to leave she asked what do I...

Pros: Solid service... no service black outs... yet.
Cons: Lack of basic cable channels. Expensive.

I'm not one of those rabid cable watchers and I still consider it somewhat of a luxury. If I didn't have cable, I really wouldn't care. In fact, I only have it because it is currently required in order for me to receive cable modem service. I'd just...

Pros: better than nothing
Cons: bad customer service, high cost

After three years of waiting and calling the 800 cable phone number advertised, Cablevision finally started service in our area. With the choice of bad reception or paying for cable, we quickly opted for Cablevision's services. I believe it was a big...

Pros: Provides more programming than the big 6 networks
Cons: Premium channels can run your bill up from $22 to $90 monthly

I remember way back in 1990 when I lived in an area where Cable TV was still unavailable. Wow, all we thought was, "What could we be missing by not having cable?" The answer, I realize today, is absolutely nothing.

1991 was the year...

Pros: None
Cons: Poor service, annoying calls, expensive, no cable modem

If there's any other way to put it, I would. How else could I have put up with this company. Cablevision is the only company to service my borough. I waited longer than most would, finally getting cable in January of 99. I was sorely disappointed. I...

Pros: Nothing really
Cons: Sucky channels

I dont know about your area but in my area, cablevision sucks. They dont have most channels like the Cartoon Network or Animal planet. when you call to ask for them all they say is "we dont provide those channels". why, you ask? Because...

Pros: Nothing
Cons: Everything

This cable service is really unreliable!! On average I get an interruption at least once every two weeks, this is when the cable goes totally blank!!! ITS HORRIBLE!!!!! The only good part about this bad cable company is the thirteen days when I have...

Pros: You'll need a magnifying glass to find one
Cons: Their very existence

Cablevision's hand is in your pocket and continually reaches deeper. This is the most overpriced "utility" in the marketplace. TV is as important to most families as is heat, light and water. In many parts of the country there is now a...

Pros: none
Cons: double billing and constant black outs

Cablevision is the most unreliable cable company ever. Just a few months ago I turned on my television to find my cable had been cut off. I called Cablevision to find out the problem they told me it was for non-payment of my bill. I explained to them...

Pros: its got my vote
Cons: no cons about it

I"ve had cable since 25 yrs old.I love it it has all great movies not that boring regular stations. I get all the great movies. I think if I did not have cable I would go crazy watching the same regular stations.
Cablevision has my vote. The...

Pros: decent channel selection, hardly ever a problem with reception or functioning
Cons: bad customer service, price

I have been receiving CableVision for a few years now, and it is not very good. The channel selection in decent, providing dozens of channels, but too many are home shopping or other useless channels. The price isn't very cheap either. With all of the...

Pros: None
Cons: Expensive. Expensive. Very few channels. Did I mention expensive?

I used to live in New York City. Cable in NYC is relatively cheap. You get a lot of channels, and don't pay through the nose. Then I moved to Long Island and submitted to the Cablevision cable Nazis.

In Long Island, the ONLY option for cable...

Pros: They take credit card payments by phone
Cons: Service Cuts Out, Ridiculously HIGH Prices!

In NJ, different cable companies service different regions of the state. We unfortunately have Cablevision. Talk about a joke!!! When we moved 2 years ago we had VisionCable which was a decent service. It hardly ever went out and the costs were more...

Pros: better technology, competitive pricing, good customer service
Cons: Analog pictures still slightly noisy

To get away from Cablevision of Southern CT because of their terrible reception, we decided to go dish. We were informed that in order to get the local major networks, we had to prove we couldn't get reception through our antenna. Even being as close to...

Pros: none
Cons: lots of rate increases,

Do you like rate increases twice or more per year? Do you like having to pay extra for premium movie channels? Do you like monopolies? Well, if you do then I guess you’ll love cablevision. For the rest of us who have a brain cablevision is the biggest...
