Insight Communications

We have (sadly) had this service for the past 15 years. :( For us, there is no other option. Satellite will not work unless we cut down all of our trees. And at the moment, I'm seriously considering it! Their phone service is horrible. Static on the line, dropped calls, no dial tone, etc... The internet is 56k comparable at best! And, I swear, if I get told to unplug my router, wait a minute or two and plug it back in... I'm going to commit a felony!! As a matter of fact I intend to switch back to AT&T DSL very soon! Anything would be faster than this! As for their cable service... that USED to be the best thing they had going for them! BUT, they bought these POS Motorola DVR boxes probably because they were the cheapest thing they could get and they can charge us a premium price per month. Motorola refuses to send Insight an update and Insight keeps acting like I'm lying to them when I call! The box will not pause when I want it to, or it will 10 to 15 minutes later after I have hit the "up" arrow on the remote 50 times. The other problem with that is it will pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, pause, play, until it runs through all the commands I give it. Another thing it does is tell me that the DVR is 100% full and I need to delete a program before I can record anything else. Where's the problem you ask? I HAVE NOTHING RECORDED!!!!! How the h**l can it be full?!?!?!? And this happens a lot while I am sleeping or away from the house so I am unable to delete the 30 seconds of some crap show I recorded to get rid of that message and go ahead and record my program. I call Insight and the response is always the same... "Sir, please unplug the cable box, wait 30 seconds, and plug it back in. That'll fix ya right up." .......................... Oh, oh! AND Insight also has a phone prompt to reset their set top boxes!! Why the h**l do they have to have that?!?!?!! FIX THE EQUIPMENT AND IT WOULDN"T BE NECESSARY!!!! GOD!! I can't wait for Comcast to get out here!! They have GOT to be better than this!!!!
