[TriLUG] Time Warner price increase

[David J. Stillman]

The Earthlink is new, the TWC is not. 


According to the Earthlink person, I will get a call in the next couple of days from the installer, who apparently is just saying "Your Earthlink service is activated", and then I am to call TWC for a disconnect. Hopefully the process will be seamless as promised by the Earthlink person.

If it's a new account, a TWC "engineer" will show up do the install. The 
last "engineer" that came 
to the house was driving a beat up dodge van with a Mercedes hood emblem 
glued to the hood. 
When he walked up onto the porch, there was a thick "weed odor" coming off 
of him. Maybe that 
was coming from the shirtless guy in the passenger seat though?
