Cutting Cable

If you are on time warner just call. And check their website for whatever promotional rates they're currently offering. They have no contracts so just threaten to cancel and sign up as a new customer if they won't give you the best deals.

Guarantee you'll get something off and it only costs a phone call.

I have just gotten used to the yearly phone call to DirecTV to tell them I need to cancel because my bill has gotten too high. Haggle a few times, end up with the customer retention department, end up getting 20-30/month off your bill plus usually some free HBO or something. It's a pain in the ass, and really stupid that you have to do it, but you pretty much do. Same goes for Time Warner for my internet. Shitty industry.

Hammb,
I do the same with Dish Network every year. They are banking on very few people actually calling so they'll give discounts to the ones that spend time doing it. And for the most part, HBO sucks like Terdledo.

Add me to the list... have to call SiriusXM every 6 months. I'm not paying more than $5-7/mo. for the service!
