Help Me! Cable Company Wants Money From Me
I have to call up a supervisor at Time Warner today and wanted some good points if anyone can provide me with some. Two years ago when I moved from my parents' house, I cancelled the Road Runner service. They never offered to pick up the modem when it was cancelled like they said was customary, but just said it needed to be dropped off at a Time Warner office. My mom gave it to me to do, and it's kind of hard to get to when you only get home at 6:30 on weekdays. Well, I forgot about it. We moved to another apartment, and I don't know what happened to it.
Now, TWO YEARS later, they call and tell my mom to give it back, and if not, we have to pay $175. What?! Does this seem fair considering I did at least have it in my old apartment for the first year, and they never even sent a notice or anything at which point at least I would have had it to give back. It seems pretty unfair to wait two years to ask for an object back. And it should have been their responsbility to notify us at least within a year. Isn't there some sort of statute of limitation on something like this? Are they allowed to just expect a modem back two years later after the service was cancelled?
Give me some more arguing points if you can. Thanks.
