    My Other Reviews·DSL EXTREME
    I went online to try and sign up for cable modem service to get better speed after finding out that a neighbor is getting much better speeds over DSL for less. Well since roadrunner is no longer available I was told to go to time Warner. I call them and they told me that although they are the local provider I need to sign up through EarthLink. Well I signed up with the help of Allen S. I choose the 10mb "Cable Premium" package that cost $79.95 a month. I received my confirmation in the mail and got a call from Time Warner to schedule my install. Well I called Time Warner back and spoke to several departments and they said they don't have a Cable Premium plan and that EarthLink seems to be selling products that don't exist? I confirmed by speaking to a manager and got the same info.

    EarthLink customer service doesn't exist. I have a timer on my phone and it shows over a 30 minute wait time!

    I guess filling a false advertisement complaint with the BBB is the only option left available.

    I try and get a hold of someone at EarthLink and the sales department says call customer support and then customer support says call time Warner.

    Time Warner Cable, Earthlink run around.

    Earthlink exported all their customer service and tech support jobs to India. So, don't expect any real help any time soon.

    Jill what is the alternative in a stock market driven economy..fire people and stock goes up....outsource or be eaten by the wolves. Earthlink uses at least four countries brightest and best.,,its compromise but please give us the name of a company that is not doing this anyway ?
    I have experience with only one computer co. that has some "local" support and they are Canadian.

    Earthlink sold you the truth and it looks like you were lied to by Time Warner. Guess you better file a BBB report against Time Warner.
