Talk about having a bad day!
YONKERS, N.Y. (AP) - A 62-year-old retired schoolteacher is fighting with a cable company over a hefty bill for porn and gangsta rap programming she says she never ordered.
The charges of more than $1,000 appeared on Claudia Lee's February Cablevision bill, shortly after she bundled her cable TV, computer and phone services....She said she has been forced to pay $779 to the company and was told to pay $652 more or face having her services cut off.
"Every time I call, somebody tells me something different...Cablevision spokesman Bill Powers said Lee may not have ordered the pay-per-view programming, but someone in her home did. Lee claimed someone pirated her connection. Powers said the company did not find theft of service.
On Friday, however, Cablevision issued a statement saying, "We are suspending these charges pending a full investigation ...." Lee said the only regular visitor to her house is her 81-year-old mother, "and I don't think she wants to watch porn."http://ap.lancasteronline.com/4/porn_bill
