Now 20 years later they have taken away more channels than what they have replaced. The latest is the TV Guide, when I called them on this I asked if they were going to replace it because that is one that we do pay for.(They called this channel "a wasted Channel)They said eventually and it may possibly another sports channel.
First of all the TV Guide is not a wasted channel. That was the only thing we had to check what was on our channels. And the entertainment and games weren't bad either on that channel. It was one of the good channels. I'm not into the sports but there is more than enough channels for sports fans! Now we are really getting ripped off and don't even know what we are missing and they are going to charge us another $3.30.
I do feel pretty bad for the old people that map out their evenings by the TV Guide Channel and now it's going to cost them more to not have one of the few good channels.
It seems that Mediacom is finding more ways to rip us off and they are getting away with it.

Search TipsTo the original post and the second rebuttal the solution is really quite simple, stop paying for the service. You are under no obligation to use Mediacom so if you are unhappy, stop buying it. If you continue to purchase a service that irritates you so much, you are only to blame. Second, you obviously have internet, so use tvguide.com (its not rocket science).

If a TV guide is that important to you, then you should look in to getting a digital cable box. Or you should start getting a sunday paper to get a TV guide. I would rather have 1 more channel of programming, than the useless TV guide channel.
There is only a limited number of channels available on the Analog range. They have to pick and choose the ones that the majority of their customers need. Not just a handful.
