Adelphia

Pros: reasonable channel lineup and pricing
Cons: no "Boomerang" on non-digital service yet

When I bought my home I moved into an area served by TimeWarner Cable; At that time I did not have cable installed, in a desire to have fewer distractions while finishing my degree. By the time I finished the degree, TimeWarner and Adelphia had swapped...

Pros: You get basic TV
Cons: Bad service, very bad service.

I am feed up with the customer service at Adelphia Cable. I have had cable since the beginning. The only reason that I continue their service is for I can not get any channels without cable. Their customer service is a joke. Their service is a joke to be...

Pros: Shows to watch
Cons: All for one price

Adelphia took over our other cable company without anyone even noticing that they had done it. This happened only a couple months ago. Then we noticed that the bill looked a little different.

The picture quality is not as good as it probably...

Pros: There arent any "pros".
Cons: There are too many "cons" to list.

Comments: I have never been so disappointed and frustrated with a company in all my life as I am with Adelphia. Monday, August 21st, our cable went out along with the internet service. I thought it was just a temporary outage, but the next morning ...

Pros: None that I can think of.
Cons: Poor technicians, nonexistant customer service, reception? what reception?

Incompetent installation technicians. Extremely RUDE customer service personnel. Horrible reception. What's wrong with this picture?! EVERYTHING! On February 4th (approx. 9:30AM), I spoke with a customer service rep regarding adding premium ...

Pros: Easy to get hooked up
Cons: Cash upfront at installation Monopoly in this market, no other choices

I recently bought a new home, and the question came up Adelphia or a Dish? We decided the quickest and easiest way would be cable till we decide for sure.
HA!!! Just getting through to a representative who could help me was a minefield. Not having...

Pros: THERE ARE NO PROS. EVERYONE WORKING AT ADELPHIA IS CLEARLY AN AMATEUR, ESPECIALLY THE EXECUTIVES.
Cons: Everything about them.

Let's start with the one good thing Adelphia does - broadcast Bill Rosendahl's unique coverage of California politics. We don't know how we'll make intelligent voting choices without this former cable executive's shows, but he's not available on...

Pros: It's high-speed cable. It's fast. Like all high-speed cable.
Cons: Customer service is terrible, uncommunicative, rude. Tech support is helpless. Expensive.

Adelphia was the first cable company I worked with after moving out of my parent's home several years back. I initially hooked up standard cable and digital high-speed internet access. The term "high-speed" here is referring to the American concept of ...

Pros: digital cable not analog
Cons: Unreliable service, customer service not helpful

The order for Adelphia digital cable was placed at the end of June as a birthday gift for me (my birthday was July 2nd). Even though I knew they were bankrupt, they are the only service in my area and I could not get the dish due to tall trees.
...

Pros: Digital Cable is usually reliable
Cons: Higher cost, poor customer service

5/16 update. I have a friend that lives in Delaware and her local paper had this article in the business section. I have a feeling this is a sign of things to come!

ADELPHIA FOUNDER RESIGNS POSTS

Adelphia Communications Corp...

Pros: Pretty good service Reliable internet
Cons: Overpriced and dont care! REFUSE to compete with Dish. "Advantage Packs" yeah right!

Adelphia charges entirely too much money for their entertainment. Their commercials blast the Dish and make false claims. They refuse to compete with the Dish and offer packages that have similar channels, and a similar pricing. You can get a plan from ...

Pros: No other choices
Cons: No service

We purchased Adelphia Cable, because we had no other choice. Then a long came digital, better picture, newer boxes, more choices, but no more Sci-Fi and no more adult channels. Well, we stayed anyway. Then I'm told as I'm reporting another cable...

Pros: None.
Cons: Reception is unacceptable,packages are not commensurate with the monthly charges.

Given that I do not have a choice of cable providers in the Township of Pembroke Massachusetts, Adelphia Communications is my only alternative. For the last 45 days the reception has been ridiculous. My family and I cannot watch one program in its...

Pros: Fair internet speed, when it's working.
Cons: High price; frequent internet black-outs; poor treatment of customers; unethical advertising.

Here's the timeline of Adelphia's latest consumer scam: Early November: Adelphia announced it will be increasing its service fees across the board and automatically changing its customers services to fit into it's "new" product packages. These packages ...

Pros: Bills arrive on time.
Cons: POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. Signal constantly dies. No responsibility taken for lack of service issues.

I was a three year Adelphia customer before switching to direct TV. Had I not been so casual about paying 50 bucks a month, I would have switched earlier. While I never subscribed to any movie channels, I did get the digital cable following the purchase ...
