The $99 contract doesn't stop them from regularly sending us bills for $250 and upwards. We call and complain, they send us a new bill for even more, we send them a copy of the new pricing agreement and a check for $99, and we get random $150 "credits" to our account. This pretty much happens every month.

Time warner cable is terrible.
