WE WON!

I attribute the victory to ETG who single-handedly defeated the souless greed monster, thus saving Rochester, NY for all time! EXCELSIOR!

Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY) announced Thursday that Time Warner Cable will shelve plans for a tiered pricing system for Internet use. Read the full story at: 13WHAM NEWS - Rochester, NY. Scratch that, you can just read it here.

Time Warner Cable had intended to use Rochester as a test market for the new plan that would have placed heavy internet users into a higher price tier.

Schumer said he called management Wednesday to oppose Rochester being used as a test market.

“We are celebrating,” Schumer said.

Schumer said he would work with Time Warner on future changes.

EverythingTastesGreat and 13WHAM News will have more information as it becomes available.

Time Warner’s press release:

NEW YORK, NY –Time Warner Cable (NYSE:TWC) today announced it would alter plans to test Consumption Based Billing, shelving the trials while the customer education process continues.

Time Warner Cable Chief Executive Officer Glenn Britt said, “It is clear from the public response over the last two weeks that there is a great deal of misunderstanding about our plans to roll out additional tests on consumption based billing. As a result, we will not proceed with implementation of additional tests until further consultation with our customers and other interested parties, ensuring that community needs are being met. While we continue to believe that consumption based billing may be the best pricing plan for consumers, we want to do everything we can to inform our customers of our plans and have the benefit of their views as part of our testing process.”

Time Warner Cable also announced that it is working to make measurement tools available as quickly as possible. These tools will help customers understand how much bandwidth they consume and aid in the dialog going forward.

Britt added, “We look forward to continuing to work with Senator Schumer, our customers and all of the other interested parties as the process moves forward, to ensure that informed decisions are made about the best way to continue to provide our customers with the level of service that they expect and deserve from Time Warner Cable.”
