SubscribeTime Warner Cable has been mailing offers to broadband-only customers offering free cable-TV service if they upgrade their Internet speeds to the company’s Ultimate 50/5Mbps tier, which currently sells for $99.95 a month in most markets.
The company began the promotion in early summer, but targeted broadband-only customers already upgraded to Turbo or Extreme speeds. Now it is available to any Time Warner broadband-0nly customer.
Customers can choose between two levels of service:
- $99.99 a month for 12 months: 50/5Mbps Internet service plus “Digital Essentials” TV, which includes local stations and around 40 additional cable networks;
- $139.99 a month for 12 months: 50/5Mbps Internet service plus “Digital TV,” which includes over 200 television channels and free HD DVR service for 6 months.
Time Warner Cable has regularly targeted its Internet-only customers with promotions to entice them to upgrade to television and phone service, typically marketing a discounted triple play package. This is the first time the company has sought to get broadband customers to upgrade to its most costly Internet tier by throwing in television service as an added incentive.
The company tells customers the deal will improve their online video experience and reduce potential problems when multiple members of a household access Internet services at the same time.
How do I get this offer? Do I have to wait for something to come in the mail? I just moved recently so maybe that’s why i haven’t received anything?
I currently only have Extreme internet service … might consider upgrading to wide-band if it means free Tv
