Charter to acquire Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks
« on: September 16, 2015, 07:20:01 PM »
Well not too long ago, after Comcast backed out of the Time Warner merger, Charter offered a bid for Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks. The FCC started the approval process last week.

It's official. Time Warner Cable is now Charter Communications.

Will you need to change the cable provider identifier from Time Warner to Charter?

Charter provided the best bid after the Comcast merger was declined. Time Warner Cable had been looking to sell its operations for years.

You can if you wanna get ahead of things. We may not notice the change now, but the Time Warner Cable name will soon be phased out in a matter of months.

Has the Time Warner branding changed yet?

Not at the Time Warner headend in Tulsa (I have a relative that lives there), the still tell me that the headend, and guides, even all references online still identify it as 'Time Warner Cable' I think that they have not yet changed most, but it could end up with Charter not dissolving the name at all, or just making it optional to move over to the 'Charter Spectrum' brand name.

Charter is our cable provider. Does this mean anything for phone and internet services, in addition to TV?
