Hi,

   I just got a visit from TCI today and I wanted to let you know what I
found out. The last person who lived didn't have her cable disconnected
when she moved and I've been getting her bills (and her service) for the
last couple of months. I called TCI to get the cable switched over to my
name because I live here and it was pretty obvious that the former tennant
wasn't going to pay her balance. After some legal gymnastics (TCI wouldn't
switch until the former tennant called to disconnect; I had to convince
them that she wasn't going to call), I got the account switched to my name
and a TCI person came out to visit to see that I wasn't breaking any laws
with my hookup.

   HERE'S WHAT I FOUND OUT...

   I'd essentially been getting free cable until I contacted TCI. Had I
not called them, I could've faced prosecution for cable theft. My reason
for calling them is because I was sick of getting the former tennant's
bills and because I didn't need any collectors stopping by. That means
little to TCI. If you're getting 'free cable' get in contact with TCI
before October 15th, to avoid prosecution. I'm not kidding around. TCI has
been identifying cable thieves for the past couple of months and are
planning a sting after October 15. If you let them know, they promise to
let you off, but they won't after the cut off date. BTW- their number is
930-2000.

   Four months in jail seems pretty expensive compared to $20. a month,
and you'll avoid being kicked out of school for criminal activity.
