Time Warner Cable sued in LA for bad service

The LA Times says that Time Warner Cable's service is so bad, it's illegal.
Our Time Warner cable service has been out since 6/4, and their customer service rep told us that they would send out a technician for repair... on 6/12! Don't you think that's a long time to wait for a service call? They acted like it wasn't. Karen called them today and they said that they would move our technician's appointment up to... 6/11. That didn't make me feel like the problem had been escalated in importance very much. Plus, we had to ask for a rebate for the service we've missed. They didn't offer, and in fact said they would not issue a rebate at the end of a missed day of service. Only after they've fixed the problem would they calculate how much service they had overcharged us for.
Update: Time Warner just called Karen and told her that they would move our technician call up to tomorrow. Why? I don't know, but I'm glad they did.
