i called my cable company to downgrade my service until i get all my ducks in a row with the box, and this silly girl told me that i could not downgrade until i had paid a past due amount, that won’t happen until next week and of course the bill will continue to go up. hello downgrade not up. i guess they want to keep billing me because they know their bill raping days are so over. thank you for this site i have sent it to everyone i know.

I just watched ABC’s Good Morning America’s feature on how to cut your monthly bills, including utilities, cell phones, and cable. Your website singled out as a great way to slash one’s cable bill. It is definitely food for thought and I have been seriously thinking about purchasing a Roku box for months now. This just gives me extra incentive.
Thank you!
