[Zed Sqd]

wha allyuh say? how this wukkin?

[SR]

how is the service and quality

[bushwakka]

i have it.....
within the first 2 mths of getting it, we had rel problems wit freezing and internet........then they fixed it and the quality is perfect (i dont have HDTV btw)

HOWEVER.....there is like a 1 second lag between the remote controls and the set top box.......this is extremely annoying....it makes the tv guide a task to use

had an issue yesterday morning where no signal was coming, but they resolved it during the day, but my internet is now moving like a snail.....to be fair, it has been months since i've had any complaint

however.......i prefer Flow cuz of that lag with the remote

[BlueIce]

its blink , expect the same shitty customer service and expect to have issues and be waiting for resolution

[DRAGULA]

and no effing rebate if ur system was dong for 2 months

[dougla_boy]

hoss...blink is Über sheit........i have blink tv and internet, the net works slow most of d times wit youtube, the tv ALWAYS have problems, been waiting on them to come to us for 3-4 weeks now.......and i live arima........plus when u call customer service, thats shiddy too......dont even bother, and its not just me, my neighbours has it also, and u cant have more than 2 boxes at your home, cuz more than would overload the system.......sheit

[Mr. Red Sleeper]

DIRECTV & greendot FTW!

[bushwakka]

and no effing rebate if ur system was dong for 2 months

says YOU a customer without balls....we demanded AND GOT a rebate for the month that our system was flickin up......hard luck there palos

hoss...blink is Über sheit........i have blink tv and internet, the net works slow most of d times wit youtube, the tv ALWAYS have problems, been waiting on them to come to us for 3-4 weeks now.......and i live arima........plus when u call customer service, thats shiddy too......dont even bother, and its not just me, my neighbours has it also, and u cant have more than 2 boxes at your home, cuz more than would overload the system.......sheit

customer service is farmed out to the foreigners....but i daresay they are a lot more courteous than locals

i live in arima too and i experienced a lot of the problems u talkin abt....but after giving some LOCAL manager some good gun-talk abt leavin dey azz.....we got the problems rectified AND got a rebate for the time that we were experiencing problems

doh take sheit.....even if yuh disconnect de azz an go wit someone else, let them know why....is only thru feedback does customer service ever improve apparently

[BlueIce]

ello gooddey sir eye am parmananeshwarsinghgee...ow can i elpz u

[SR]

ok so i just spoke to an employee of tstt who confimred that only in west moorings has good service so far.............


copper plant cabling is the main downfall of thier service

[jeff]

A while back i switched because flow's customer service was the worst. My cable used to be down every time it rained and when you call them, they sending a rep to investigate in 7 days.

I switched to blink and never looked back. Never had a problem yet.

[jnrgng]

Sando-Thompson exchange
I just get blink tv 2 days now and i must say that it not very reliable at all

*ADB 2500w SD set top box connected to internet via Minerva Networks

*beside the lag between the remote and the set top box, the channel does take 3-5 seconds to change or most time even longer

*Damn ting does freeze every 20 mins and i does have to go and plug out and plug back een d power cord for d set top box. It d night time it does happen more frequently i guess because of network traffic. When i do reset power it might load if it doesnt stick on d loading screen. If it do load i have to reset power again because the tv guide didnt load and shows "No Program" for all channels

As stated before it is an IPTV service that uses a dedicated internet port to send signals

Internally they use partly wireless technology by usin PluglinkAV Adapters that is connected to the electrical outlet to send signals back to the internet connected router

Bottom Line :
Slow unreliable service that still needs work and improvement. Eventually i guess because it is future technology we be able to browse the web on the tv(kind of like google tv).All in all you would be better off with your current service at this time and No rush to switch despite the luring promotions they might have

[polarized]

[cinco]

BLINK ENTERTAINMENT IS THE WORST...

Take It From Me Is a WASTE OF TIME MONEY and their Customer service is disgusting

Dont waste allyuh Money , go with Flow...No pun intended..

[cinco]

thanks for that message and no justification

[Stephon.]

It goes down a lot, I only use blink when I wanna watch something in High Def other than that I mainly use flow, imagine it has a 1 second delay for each button you press =/

[redmanjp]

blink entertianment does use d same phoneline or cable?

[aidan]

Anything new on this? TSTT recently changed the lines in my area, and the changed the ones to my house as well with a new 'box' on d wall outside, i dunno wat is the name of it. The guy said if i want i can get blink tv now. My internet is working wayy better now though. Location is grande, do you all think it makes sense?

[ilove3]

Has anyone ever really seen the difference between Blink Ent and Flow? Compare the two with the same channels and you would see... Blink Ent rel bess.. but dat control delay and dey customer service suck balls

[Stephon.]

Blink is better I agree, but I use my flow more than blink because of the epic lag blink has. Also I watch MTV a lot and blink doesn't have MTV.
