Charter doesn't seem to care about what customers really want, unless they want exactly what Charter offers
Apparently, you can take EWTN off the line-up, but you can't take EWTN off the table (of issues) when it comes to our local Charter cable service. A number of Catholic seniors want EWTN back. While I don't watch that channel very often, I do miss viewing the TV Guide Channel once in awhile and they've removed it from basic service. I'd dearly love to have the Fox Business Channel, which I'm sure they have packaged into the digital service, if they have picked it up at all. We're paying for cable service from a company that keeps dropping channels, one by one. They have pushed the digital service, but they can't give us the internet services we really need, such as static IP addresses, with digital service. We've kept the basic package until now, hopting they would sell a bare-bones basic with just the local broadcast channels. But I'm thinking it may be time to move on soon. With a two-dollar raise in cost coming in a few days, this whole thing has become the digital equivalent of making the candy bar smaller and smaller and raising the prices higher and higher.
