Johnny 5 (TiVo) is alive.
Like other Fios owners, my life was torn apart when I was told the end of cable cards was here. Made the change and saw my bill go up to $200 for Fios. I’m not going to be that person I told myself. I feel I stream and watch YouTube anyway. I saw a lot of Fios users online unloading useless TiVo devices.
Oddly enough to this day, my TiVo still works on the same cable card with Fios, so they didn’t turn them off.
Then something happened where I live. Spectrum bought Cox cable. Spectrum still supports cable cards. So I’m leaving Fios as I could not get my bill lowered even going to the retention policy and opening a BBB case. Got nowhere. I recall I paid $99 for years with them, till I upgraded to 1GB fiber. Then paid more for a box and DVR service.
