It took 4 transfers before they found somebody who could cancel service in Missouri.
But all things being equal, had Time Warner upped to 300Mbps (up and down), and matched GF's rates, I'd have stayed.
I know some of it was familiarity with ther setup, but beyond the raw sppeds I check every morning, I'm not sure I've seen anything with GF that's leaps and bounds better than TWC. Add to it that 99% of what I do on the Internet never touches more than 100Mbps, I'm not sure GF's speed shows beyand that every-morning speed test. Hell, they had freebe upgraded us to 60Mbps (when it was evident that GF was coming), and the things I do on the Internet were as good at that point as they are now with GF. And I telework at least 4 days a week, so I use me some Internet and VPN. And not offering a hard phone, while solved with Ooma, still took all the getting Ooma too. So there's that.
So I love the speed, but we all know that few things on the Internet can use those speeds today. Beyond that the picture isn't any better, the PC-based offer sucks by comparison, the away from home experience isn't even a possibility with GF (not that it was killer with TWC, but there was something!), and the interface is going to take some getting used to.
I guess I'm just trying to be honest and not put too much weight on the Gig aspect (since it's hard to really use functionally).
Oh, and no picture-in-a-picture! LOL!
