Subscriber is upset with the recent rate increase; she spoke with Insight and asked why a middle package between the $11 basic package and the $38 classic package is not available. Insight rep explained that surveys are done to determine subscriber needs - customer has never rec'd survey in 20 yrs. She would like to see a medium range package - basic plus a few extra channels available. She is also concerned about the amount of junk mai that has recently been included in her monthly bills.

Ms. Foster sent an email through the COB E-Government web site. Her complaint is to keep her current service, she has to upgrade to digital which includes one premium channel at an additional $2.00 a month charge. She had to wait on the Insight representative to arrive, and buy a new VCR because hers is not compatible with digital. She was happy with her current service, and without the premium channel she would not have had to change. However, Insight has been trying to make it up to her.

Ms Fisher called and stated that they are being charged $1 per month for the cable guide that is no longer being printed.

Ms. Fisher stated that she believes that this is unethical and possibly illegal as Insight is keeping a $1 profit every month and not delivering the guide as promised.
