Method to get FREE HBO, Showtime or a Discount from Charter Spectrum

by JE Cool of tech4today.net

Around 700,000 dynamic Charter Spectrum clients are in line for an immediate discount of $75, as indicated by Underwood's office. 

Of those clients, 150,000 are set to get an additional $75 — or $150 complete. 

To meet all requirements for the $75 refund, a client must have: 

Rented a modem or Wi-Fi switch from Charter or Time Warner that was lacking; OR 

Bought into a Time Warner Cable web plan that guaranteed velocities of 100 Mbps or higher. 

To get the additional $75 internet cable promotional discount, a client more likely than not had a moderate modem for a long time or more. 

Consider the whole, and those discounts complete $62.5 million. 

There's one proviso: Some clients have effectively gotten discounts for moderate modems. Those supporters won't get an additional discount, as per Underwood's office. 

As of Tuesday morning, it wasn't clear precisely which models of modems or switches will fit the bill for the discounts. 

It doesn't have any significant bearing to clients who claimed their very own modems or switches, except if they bought into a Time Warner plan of 100 Mbps or higher. 

By what method will I know whether I qualify?

Charter Spectrum has 120 days to tell qualified clients and appropriate their discounts, as indicated by the settlement. 

So you don't need to do anything. Charter Spectrum said it will tell clients. 

Charter Spectrum said it essentially acquired a portion of the issues with Time Warner and has made numerous moves up to the link framework — which Underwood recognized in the arrangement. 

"We anticipate keep giving the best TV, Internet, Voice and Mobile items to our clients, and to conveying broadband to more homes and organizations over the state," Charter said in an announcement Tuesday.

Am I getting free HBO or Showtime?

In the event that you get both your web and link through Charter Spectrum, the appropriate response is yes. 

As a feature of the settlement, you would be qualified for three free a very long time of HBO or six free a long time of Showtime. 

In the event that you just get Charter network access, you'll be qualified for a free month of the organization's Spectrum TV Choice — an administration that gives you a chance to stream communicate cable TV stations and your decision of 10 different channels. 

The web just clients will likewise get a free month of Showtime. 

Like the cable internet promotions and discounts, Charter has 120 days to tell qualified clients of the free premium channels or gushing administration.

What if I already subscribe to HBO and Showtime?

If you're a cable and internet customer and subscribe to both HBO and Showtime through Charter already, you're not eligible for the free months, according to the Attorney General's Office.

But you still could get the rebate money.

"Not only is this the largest-ever consumer payout by an internet service provider," Underwood said, "returning tens of millions of dollars to New Yorkers who were ripped off and providing additional streaming and premium channels as restitution — but it also sets a new standard for how internet providers should fairly market their services.”
