My family and I just moved to a new state and we wanted to get a new cable plan set-up at our house. The local cable company told us that the former owners of that house did not pay their cable bills...so now, they are saying that they cannot install cable connections for us until the bills have been paid. this has been giving me a headache for the past 3 weeks now.

Sorry to hear that... How much is the total bill?

around 658 dollars: that is what the former owners of the house owed the cable company. this really bites because i already missed a lot of tv shows that i love. the company should be informed that we are new owners of the house.

We called and called and explained that we were the new owners of the house. It seems like they don't even listen to us. I think getting a new cable company's services seems easier and faster. Sigh.

what the hell is wrong with them? Angry

oh well, Think maybe you should issue papers or anything that will prove that you're really a new owner. Or ask them what papers do they need to make things work. If this doesn't work out, getting a new cable is a nice idea. Wink

But i think, you have to prove it that you are a new owner, even if you are getting a new cable. Worst that could happen is that they will run after you about the bills! Silenced
