Cablevision Deadline 1


cable_box_augustFor Cablevision subscribers who simply plug a coax cable into the back of their TV and fall asleep to CNN or Law & Order, or any of the other shows listed on the basic cable package, you are in for some sleepless nights.

Cablevision customers will soon need a cable box for each television. Customers with newer televisions  might be able to utilize a cablecard, but there will be an additional monthly fee for each TV.

Currently, cable boxes are leased to customers for a $6.95 monthly fee. Cablevision is providing free cable boxes, and after one year customers will begin getting charged each month for each additional box.

A Cablevision representative confirmed that the boxes will be needed, and that the offer to get additional boxes ends on August 24th.  (Other sources have mentioned August 7th)
