Charter Cable is the worst company on the face of this planet!

Charter Cable is the worst company on the face of this planet. So many people have stated this clearly over many years, so there isn't too much more to say. 
Briefly: last week I picked up two additonal cable boxes so that I could continue to watch the now "all digital" network. Thank you for the 200-new Spanish speaking stations by the way. After hooking one up and I watched the screen continue to state that I must "call to add this device", despite the fact that I had already activated it online. Then, after calling and "getting it fixed", 5-minutes later the same message returned. I then tried all available connection methods and called again. After about two hours of my time I was told that a technician must come to my house!? WTF!? To plug in a fucking cable box? Who pays me back for my time? 
The hostility toward this and other cable companies will continue and eventually come to a head. Sadly, the only way to truly fix these assholes is through legislation. The monopolies should end!

Charter cable suck balls, taint, ass and monkey dong. 

Dispute this, debate me - who among you loves Charter Cable?
