Default Television / Internet Disruptions? Anyone?

Looks like the worst of the weather has gone through TV. Did anyone lose television reception, internet or power?

Here in Poinciana no disruptions using Comcast.

Here in Poinciana no disruptions using Comcast.
The only disruption is a TV serviced by Comcast and no frills plan lost signal following one of many alerts posted on TV screen. Will contact Comcast to run diagnostic and fix to return to normal use status.

Directv HD channels were out for a few minutes. But as always the non HD channels worked fine.

No but power fluctuations and blackout caused DirecTv reset, just when Atlanta was about to score TD, saw they had afterwards.
And my PC was messed up for hours this morning, finally got her going.

They raised their prices again. Or should i say they hid it in the fee section, Broadcast TV fee from 5 to 7, and the Regional sports 3 to 5 dollars. Another 4 buck a month, my SS didn't go up that much!

Here is the latest Comcast way to steal your money.....this came from MY ACCOUNT portion of their website:

""You have two courtesy months to exceed a terabyte of usage without charge. After using these two months, if you exceed your data usage plan you will be charged $10.00 for each 50GB of additional data provided, but charges will not exceed $200 each month, no matter how much you use.""

Do you use anywhere near a Terabyte of data each month? I know we have multiple devices, wifi cams, devices, home automatic controllers, and we are no where close to using that much.

1 terabyte is a lot of data. We are currently using about 600 gigabytes per month and I would say we are well above average.
