This is my October 2014 Time Warner "Triple
Play" bill. When I signed up, less than two
years ago, it was advertised at $89.99 and
today, less than two years later, the actual
price is 110% more -- now $190.77. Click for Full Size.

Fact is -- you can never, ever get the advertised price because it doesn't include many of the fixed costs, like the set top box, not to mention it is littered with pass-throughs of the company's taxes and fees, including the cable franchise fees. To add insult to injury, there are a bunch of garbage, made up charges, and let us not forget the increases on all services -- the 'Internet modem' fee went up 140%.
Not to mention I was overcharged as the Universal Service Fund calculation is wrong by $.07 -- not in my favor.
I know most of you reading this 'feel my pain'.
