Spectrum has the Spectrum Contract Buyout program where you need to install the Triple Play package and they claim to be contract-free. How long did you wait to downgrade the spectrum? Thanks for the info! So I waited for my time until my contract with DirecTV/ATT Internet expired to cut them and switch to Cox or Spectrum just for internet. Recently we had a problem with something and my wife called about it, and in that phone call, she agreed to something that extended our contract. My plan is to break the contract with DirecTV/ATT, get Spectrum and their larger plan to refund the cancellation fee, and then cancel everything but Spectrum`s Internet. I can`t find anything where the repayment program requires me to stay for an extended period of time, but I`m sure I`m missing a loophole that they will lead me to. Has anyone done this or does they have any ideas about what (apart from completely too much time) I can expect to pay/miss in my idea? I didn`t cause any problems here a few months ago. I think it took me about 2 months to get my check. .
