Voice your opinion to the Mayor and City Council of Rock Hill South Carolina.
Comporium Communications is charging its customers and outrageous amount for Cable TV and Internet Services. Customers in this area have no other choices for their hardwired cable/telephone and internet services. Other neighboring communities are paying far less for their services and are receiving more channels (both digital and HD), On-Demand, higher internet bandwidth and overall better customer service. They are also receiving low introductory rates for the first 6 months to year. Comporium has also changed their broadcast for basic cable to digital, requiring people to have a cable box (with a monthly charge)to receive the most basic cable channels.
This situation needs to be addressed. With the economy in a deep recession it is not the time to be taking advantage of customers.
Sign this petition that will be presented to the Mayor and City Council. It will also be forwarded to the FCC to insure that Comporium is not in any FCC violation regarding monopolies.
The level of engagement regarding our local utility monopoly confirms that this issue resonates deeply across our community. This momentum provides a firm foundation as we prepare to present our grievances to the city council and the federal authorities.

There has been an issue for years, not being able to get a different provider for the area other than Comporium. The problem with this is that this company knows they can jack up pricing and rates because you must pay for it or else do without. Please get some other option available to the people. Thank you!

I live in Brevard, NC. Comporium NEEDS to let other companies into our mountainous region. I understand they did the grunt work, however, their services are no longer running at the capacity needed for modern-day business and school.

There are no other options for internet service providers, service is very poor and prices are unreasonably high. We should have the option to use any company willing to operate in this area as American antitrust and monopoly policy indicate.

We have lived here for 30 years and I’m tired of being robbed by Comporium. I pay $70 a month for regular internet. Got rid of Comporium Cable and telephone as soon as I could. No other option for Internet in our area!

I need the internet to do my work! I have been paying Comporium so much more $ since I moved to Fort Mill from Lake Wylie with unreliable service!
Internet is down and I cannot call their main number, 611 or contact anybody for help!
Please END this monopoly and allow more competition so it is fair!

Monopolistic, lousy customer service, far too many negatives and far too pricey.
