    So, what does that mean? That means that even though you pay for Charter Cable service to be piped into your home, you will no longer be able to watch it unless you pay an additional monthly fee for one of their cable boxes.

    I pay monthly for the HD box and HD channels in my main living room, but have TV's hooked direct with cable plugged straight into the back of the TV's in the bedrooms and even a small TV in the kitchen.

    After March 4th, the signals will be blocked to all TV's that are not paying monthly to rent a cable box. The reason behind this decision was to stop cable theft and to allow the home office to control and monitor every single home using Charter services.

    Do I even need to say I HATE Charter Communications! If you are paying for the monthly service, each house should be allowed a certain amount of boxes free of charge.
