Cox then said well what is dish offering ... I did have an offer from Dish but I did tell a few white lies and expand the discount but in the end MY Original COx bill for phone internet and Tv (hd , hd dvr, no movie channels) was 168.00 a month. They ended up speeding up my internet , nmy phone stayed the same, The gave me my choice of a movie channel and a 2nd HD Dvr and my month bill is now 120.00

SO i guess you could always call and threaten ...It cant hurt , but be prepared to switch if they just say "well do whatever"
This was my thinking. I'm in a good spot because if my cable is completely gone I could still function really well, plus I'd save about $65 per month. If they were to throw a free pvr in the mix though, I'd happily continue to pay my $65

In Red Dragon Hannibal gets the address for Ed Norton's house by telling the receptionist over the phone he'd dance at her wedding if she could provide the info. I'm very impressed you noticed.
