Talk:Suddenlink Communications

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The company has hundreds of thousands of business and residential customers that live and work in primarily suburban, small-town, and rural communities across more than twenty states.

In 2006 Cebridge purchased cable systems from Charter Communications and Cox Communications. Once the deals were complete the company changed their name to Suddenlink. [1] With these new cable systems Suddenlink is now among the nation’s top 10 largest cable system operators, serving 1.4 million customers primarily in the South Central United States [2]. Suddenlink offers digital television, phone, security, and high-speed Internet services . [3]"

This must have been posted by a Cebridge employees, the information cites their own web page.

this means that suddenlink was also formerly known as cox. also, they operate in the southeastern states too. cox was based in atlanta and had service in the carolinas as well.

Suddenlink was never know as Cox, they just purchased some systems from Cox. Same deal with Charter. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 21:30, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

I don't see why this article should be deleted, let alone speedily deleted. --Bill Clark 20:41, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

These statements are an assertion of notability; therefore, this article is not a candidate for speedy deletion. It may still be nominated for a deletion discussion at Articles for Deletion. --Ginkgo100talk 21:57, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
Is this the only part in the article that calls for deletion? If it is just delete the phrase instead of deleting the whole article. Alucard 16 00:49, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cox/Charter

Customers who were previously serviced by Cox or Charter are now serviced by Suddenlink. Suddenlink did not buy both companies, they acquired small portions of their cable areas that the companies put up for sale. Alucard 16 22:24, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 99$ deal a fraud

I orderd the package deal wich included phone,internet,and cable for 99$ a month for 12 months. I waited 3 weeks for computer and cable to be brought in my house, and a month for the phone. My first bill was sent to me at 191.00. I spoke with a rep. whom told me to ignore the first bill. A new bill was sent to me for 135.00 not 99.00. I called again and was told that my bill still would only be 99.00. During these communications I was told that they would be returning my phone calls by the way never once did I recieve any calls from them. The fourth time I called I asked to speak with a manager whom came on the phone and apologized that there company made a mistake and all the advertisments that came in my mail box and all the workers I had talked to were wrong. They do not offer a 99.00 deal to customers at my adress. So for 1&1\2 months I had been recieving false information. I feel they offerd me this deal to get me hooked and I allowed them to come in my house hook all this junk up under the contract of paying 99.00 dollars. How can you offer something, advertise something, (wich I am still getting in the mail), that is a total lie. This is a down right scam. Yes the clerks are apolagetic but they sure don't want to make my bill right. I can't believe that a large company wouldn't make every effort to make this right for me. I not asking for anything that they weren't offering up untill I had everything installed. So beware if you are ordering a package and they say sure we can do that for you have a backup plan when the real prices start being sent in the mail. Oooooh look just back from the mailbox another 99.00 dollar advertisment specail from Suddenlink. Yeah, Whatever, Maybe I will try for another 99.00 dollar deal!!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.111.40.244 (talk) 22:19, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
