Man this is way off the original subject, but i can't help but jump on the adelphia poor service bandwagon. My Adelphia digital keeps freezing and blocking and the tech says its a quam problem but that was back in march - still not fixed. I don't know why no one ever gets back to me or would just fix the problem on Grand Island (Stahley Rd please) Maybe the time warner or comcast people have better experienced employees for these type problems! Oh yes, channels from Canada - have always had electrical interference - i guess this cannot be fixed by them. Fox has slight double images but WKBW is worst. MSG is pretty loud, but the commercials on History are extremely loud. I guess I better call for service again! Or go to the dish??????????????

Adelphia- Buffalo is always late especially with technical knowledge and know-how or nohow for Adelphia's Engineering Department in the WNY Buffalo area that doesn't have ANY people with any Engineering Degree's period! They are all just barely technicians with NO formal education! Talk about stupid people that dare to call themselves engineers! GET AN EDUCATION AND DEGREE FIRST PLEASE, BEFORE USING THE WORD ENGINEER! Granted they are all trying but just do not have any expertise or know how! This is truely demonstrated by the recent ongoing problem I and many others are having with UHF Channel 29 WUTV, Adelphia cable channel 6 which I keep calling about with no resolution. I am trying to watch a baseball game this Saturday afternoon (Chicago vs NYM) with serious ghosting. There are almost 2 players for every one on my 52 inch screen! Direct pickup, no sorry (Adelphia almost Technical Department), no local channel transmitting on channel VHF channel6! VSWR problem - NO, problem with my wiring or television, no, technician has same problem at "tap" and also at his house so he states.! DAMN IT I WANT IT FIXED TODAY YOU IDIOTS in Buffalo or Lancaster! I have even seen this same problem at your Maple Road payment Office while paying my bill and have asked about it with a response " that's the way it is everywhere" SORRY, WRONG ANSWER - JUST BECAUSE IT IS EVERYWHERE DOESN'T MEAN THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT AND THERE IS NO PROBLEM. WAKE UP ADELPHIA HALF ASSED TECHNICIANS - IT MEANS THE PROBLEM IS EVERYWHERE. FIX YOUR ANTENNA (IN LACK(OF KNOWLEDGE)A - WANTA) YOU IDIOTS IF YOU CAN) - AT YOUR RECEIVE LOCATION TO PREVENT THIS!!!!!! GET UP OFF YOUR LAZY FAT ASSES AND FIX IT DAMN IT! THIS IS ONLY ONE OF MANY REASONS WHY I THINK THE PRESENT ADELPHIA STAFF, AREA VP OF OPERATIONS MANAGER, GENERAL MANAGER, FAKE ENGINEERING MANAGERS AND/OR DIRECTORS SHOULD ALL BE FIRED - FAILURE TO RECOGNIZE AND RESOLVE PROBLEMS IN A TIMELY MANNER!!!!! I WILL BE CALLING ALL FRANCHISING AUTHORITIES, FOX IN NY, WUTV IN GI, AND THE FCC ALONG WITH THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION AND THE NEW (NON ADELPHIA) CORPORATE OFFICE TO GET THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED ONCE AND FOR ALL IF NOT FIXED BY NEXT SATURDAY - 1 WEEK SHOULD BE PLENTY FOR YOU "SLOW MINDED" WNY BUFFALO FOLKS! NEXT WEEK WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD IF NOT FIXED.

t is actually quite simple. When that person calls they will be told that when Adelphia was bought, existing customers were kept on a special package not available to new customers. What do you think the cable companies say when a customer calls up asking for $29.95/month service for 6 months like they do here in my area (OOL). They are told they can't get it because they already are customers of OOL. Business is business, tough luck if you are getting a crappy package.

What is RR/Comcast going to say to your new neighbor when that neighbor calls and complains why you are getting the speeds you are and he can't?

said by SliderNC :

From what the people in my local office have said, as well as the tech who came and did my install, those who are currently with Adelphia will still have their Adelphia speeds/services. Anyone who signs up in what used to be an Adelphia area with either Comcast or TWC will be their customers and will be put on their speeds.

Here's to hoping that Adelphia pushes out 16/2 to the NC area. :)
