The business world still talks merger for two telecommunications giants in the process of negotiation. Unfortunately, there was the small financial conflict which arose during the NFL Finals, prohibiting some customers from viewing it. The DirecTv Las Vegas consumers were not pleased at the sudden and unexpected change in their service bundles.
America is not new to mergers of telecommunications giants. As usual, the public is not silent about their dissatisfaction with the interruption in service which they deemed as unfair, and it certainly caused the FCC to postpone the merger for a time. Americans on the Internet are never silent about issues with companies that they spend a great deal of money on.
It is only a small embarassment to the cable giant, and only due to their extensive advertisement promoting their sports channel packages. Last year people dropped old cable companies by the droves to switch to the Genie, and lock in their viewing of the whole Superbowl season. It turns out it was a slightly overplayed issue, as most customers will still say that these sports channel bundles are the best deal going.
It should be a short lived controversy, as both corporations stand to gain a great deal from this merger. The cable company seems to really come out on top with the infrastructure of the U-Verse system that the ISP is so known for. However, the Internet company also stands to gain a lot of ground in the consumer marketplace as well.
For now, they are within the 180-day review timetable often adopted by the FCC in large acquisitions such as this. It is important for consumer watch dogs to know that the marriage of corporations will be a benefit rather than a detriment to the public. After all, the American people are very concerned about the overuse of copyright law in order to levy heavy fines on average citizens.
As for the simple complaining rights consumers assign to their cable company, the primary issue is with the weather. Technology can only do so much, and bad weather can certainly interfere with the signal that reaches the satellite dish affixed to homes of their customers. This is the most prevalent complaint made.
An obvious fix is to place the dish where it cannot be blocked by trees, plants, or other structures; even during a period of high winds. Somehow it must also be placed in an area that is easy enough to access during snow or sleet. It appears that a snow-covered satellite cable dish is as useful as one pointed towards the ground or facing another building.
The second most prevalent complaint involves the cost of the bundled services once the trial period expires. This can be anywhere from six months to two years, and the cost of the bundle goes up dramatically. Even so, this complaint is rarely made, as the consumers remain quite satisfied for now and hopefully into the future as these two giants merge.
