Greetings all. I have been a long time DirecTV customer but have been so fed up with the DVR issues and high fees.

I think I am ready to make the jump back to Charter Communications. I just checked one of their bundles: phone/internet/tv and I could cut my bill in half.

I recently purchased a Tivo premeire XL and I love it. I am planning on using this with a cablecard supplied by Charter.

Would anyone care to share with me what problems may arise with my situation? If this all works out, I plan on getting another Tivo box or possibly getting the Charter Tivo box. If I do, would it play nice with my Tivo Premiere box.

I live in the St. Louis area if that matters

Thanks in advance.

Got a letter last week and I'm not impressed with the HD additions in West Michigan.

QVC-HD
HSN-HD
G4 HD
GSN HD
MTV2 HD
TV LAND HD
Hallmark Movie Channel HD

Plus about 14 premium channels.

I was realy hoping for Sportsman Channel, Outdoor Channel, and WFN in HD, as well as the NHL Network in HD. Disapointed.

Hey Mike,
I have the Tivo Premier upgraded to XL and have charter with cable card. The only problems I had at first was getting a good cable card. Most of the ones they brought they couldn't get activated, but they only would bring 1 or 2 at first. My advice is to get them to bring like 10 or so. But once they get one activated you will like it, I have had 0 problems since my tivo has been active. We plan on getting another Premier for the bedroom soon.

Thank you Vance. That is excellent news. I'm very excited about making the switch. I love the Tivo box. I just ordered a second. I will see if I can get them to bring over a bunch of cablecards when they do the install.

Good Morning,

We don't currently have any additions for that market on the calendar although there will be before the end of the year. If you would like to see the current channel listings please check: http://charter.com/lineup. When channel addition information becomes available, it will be posted here: http://www.charter.com/futuretv

Thanks,

Dylan

Unfortunately we do not offer TiVo in that market yet. If you purchase a TiVo, Cable Cards are $2/mo. If you would like us to have someone contact you to go over options and current promotions we would be happy to do so. Just PM me with your Name, Address, Phone Number, and best time to reach you.

Thanks,

Charter FutureTV website adds new updates for the rest of Alabama, the rest of Minnesota, areas close to Atlanta in Georgia, and Charter's systems in Nebraska. The areas in Georgia near the Tennessee border are yet to be seen.

They're all getting tons of new HD, but there's nothing new to mention that I see. WGN America HD is added throughout Georgia.

It's interesting to me to see the slight regional variances. Outside of the Reno lineup (and they're missing a few too), there's 10-12 commonly featured HD channels missing on each lineup. It mainly seems to be an assortment of Cooking Channel, DIY, Destination America, H2, Outdoor Channel, Sportsman Channel, ESPNEWS, WE, IFC, Fuse, The Hub, BBC America and WGN America.

I suspect many of these will be taken care of by the end of the year, and that some markets will see additional HD. I would guess that in the markets with more full HBO/Cinemax/Showtime slates, they will see the additional HD versions of those as Louisiana has with the full Starz slate.

Finally see the new list of channels for Smyrna, GA on the charter.com/futuretv site. And while I'm happy we're getting new additions, I'm truly disappointed that many of my most-wanted HD channels are missing. These include DIY Network (which seems to be added to almost every OTHER Charter system), ESPNews, CBS Sports Network, REELZ, and Cooking. I'm also wondering why the Duluth, GA system has the Weather Channel's Weatherscan channel and we don't (since we share almost every OTHER channel.)
Also, I'm still not getting the free Gwinnett Daily Post I was promised!
Hopefully, some of these oversights will be addressed soon!!

Good Morning,

We're sorry that all of your requested channels were not added on this round. As was stated before we will be continuing to add channels through the remainder of the year. We appreciate your patience as we work hard to get all of these upgrades and additions completed.

Thanks,

Dylan

I don't have an account, but I want to check prices so I can compare with my other available services, Dish, DirecTV and Uverse. Those other 3 services make the regular pricing pretty easy to find on their websites even though they all offer sign up deals. Charter's site has you enter an address, so I know that they can determine standard pricing.
