Speed demons rejoice

...because now Charter Cable has is rolling out one of the fastest Internet speeds in the United States. Currently this technology is only available St. Louis, but Charter is working hard to provide all of its other markets across the country with these brand new high-speed products throughout the year. So get ready, because it could soon be available in your area.

DSL technology is seriously lacking when it comes to having a speedy service. The best choice by far is now the Ultra60 Mbps service that Charter offers. This is the first Phatband speed available from Charter (with more options coming soon). Higher speeds are no longer a luxury – they are a necessity when dealing with multimedia Internet sites.



These new super fast speeds will benefit those that telecommute, download lots of files, watch movies, and play games. Gamers have a leading edge with Ultra60 Mbps service because they can download patches without a lag in game time. Even multitaskers find that they can't live without this kind of speed.

If you want to learn more, be sure to check out Charter's Ultra60 Information Page. And don't forget about Charter’s Twitter Feed either. It will keep you up to date on the latest options from Charter Cable.

A new sweepstakes offer

I'm back to talk about Charter Cable again because they really have outdone themselves this month with their prizes for new and existing customers. Charter's Free Gift Card Sweepstakes lets you enter for a chance to win $5000 in gift cards. One grand prize of $5000 and four prizes of $1000 gift cards will be given away in May. There is absolutely no purchase necessary for this sweepstakes and it is open to anyone. How great is that?

You can also score gift cards through Charter Cable by purchasing anything online from Charter during the month of May. Bundle selections can earn you a chance to win $75 or $150 in gift cards. Bundling services are the best way to save money with their cable services, so everyone gets a good deal.



And since Charter Cable offer so many great prizes, why not FollowCharter on Twitter? This will help any current or new customer keep up with the great deals from Charter and be notified about any new contests coming up. There were so many great prizes given away from Charter in April, I wasn't sure that they would hold another contest or sweepstakes. But luckily, they are. And we all have a chance to win, so check out the site for yourself.

Cable at its best

I think by this point, anyone who still watches television through a cable company is probably unhappy. I know that I’m not too happy. And my parents are really not happy since their cable company decides that their current service just doesn’t work for the price. Every month, one or two channels get taken off of their service. But to combat these unhappy customers, companies such as Charter Communications are doing something different. They are trying to put the fun back into watching TV.

Not only has Charter joined Twitter (@chartercom), but the company also wants to show their appreciation for their customers by hosting online contests. Last year, Charter gave away a variety of prizes including a 2009 Honda Civic Hybrid and Xbox 360 systems. And current or new customers can get into the action as well. Right now Charter is offering a chance to enter their April sweepstakes to win a 22” flat screen HDTV. One is given away every day through April. And there’s even a grand prize: a 52” LCD flast screen HDTV with home theater system and one year of free Charter cable with HD.



Honestly, this contest is so amazing. If you are not a Charter cable subscriber, you really should be.
