Time Warner Cable's office on Mt. Hope Avenue in Rochester, N.Y.

Don’t say we never gave you anything.

Another widespread Time Warner Cable broadband and phone outage struck Rochester, N.Y., this morning, leaving many customers with lagging or no service for several hours.

Customers are entitled to service credits, but Time Warner Cable only provides them when you ask.  We’ve made it easy to collect with our easy, breezy instant service credit request menu.  The online e-mail form usually takes the shortest amount of time.  A credit for $3.16 for our Road Runner Turbo account was posted within an hour of our request.

If your area experiences an Internet outage and you can point us to your company’s methods of requesting service credits, we’ll be happy to extend this service to other areas and companies.  Just use our contact form, linked above.
