Could hundreds of Schroon Lakers soon be looking for a new TV, phone and internet provider? Well, if you are a former Time Warner – now Spectrum customer – that fate may await you.

New York’s public service commission is trying to remove Spectrum, the state’s largest TV and Internet service provider, for bad behavior. (Spectrum is owned by Charter Communications).

Bad acts include allegedly reneging on commitments and breaking promises the company would get high-speed Internet service to rural communities, which the commission views, as its most serious failing. 

The website Deadline Hollywood, which broke the story, reports:

“Charter countered by claiming broadband service has been provided to 86,000 homes and businesses. The commission said it will seek fines of $100,000 per day until the company meets its promise to extend service to households with slow or no Internet connection”
