1 Final Report Community Survey: Attitudes about Charter Cable conducted for The Town of Highland Park & The City of University Park Michael E. Egan, PhD, CMC Hillcrest Rd. Ste 880 Dallas, TX
2 Methodology Telephone interviews 425 total, 18 minutes long 175 University Park 175 Highland Park 75 Non subscribers (6 minutes) CATI Error: plus or minus 5 percentage points Statistical analysis Participant profile Gender: 61% Female Sole cable decision maker 76% Average age: 54.8 years Single family household: 88% Average No. TVs on cable: 3.2
3 Key Findings Low overall satisfaction (59%) and very low overall satisfaction with the value (35%). Of 20 attributes associated with cable service only two had satisfaction scores higher than 70%: Accuracy of your bill? (85%), Availability of the programming you want? (77%). Among agreed-upon contractual services, no more than half rated Charter as doing a good or excellent job. Lower cost was the most important factor to both subscribers and non subscribers to encourage broader cable service usage. Overall Satisfaction and Value were independent, but factors driving these perceptions had considerable overlap. Three in five subscribers (61%) obtained services provided by Charter from other suppliers, mostly high speed internet access. Over half (57%) of non-subscribers had previously subscribed to a cable service, and had done so for an average of 6.7 years. Their most common reasons for dropping: Cost (51%) and Service (47%). A third (35%) dropped because of reception. Of ten service problems, almost half of all subscribers (49%) experienced Intermittent loss the internet more often than 5 times in the past two years. Other frequent problems: Partial channel loss (42%), Total internet loss (41%), Intermittent television loss (40%), degraded picture (37%), Slow internet (37%), Loss service (33%) and Total outage of your cable television service (32%). Only 18% of frequent problems did not require a service call. Highland Park had higher Intermittent television loss (45% to 36%) and higher Total outage (39% 24%) than University Park, but University Park had significantly higher Loss of internet (39% to 24%). About half (54%) who called Charter were satisfied with the way their concerns were addressed; about a third (31%) were dissatisfied, significantly more often among men than women. (40% vs. 26%). Most (81%) subscribers had called for service, but 30% were on hold too long. A service call was required for 68% of the calls, but only 35%were scheduled according to the terms of the Charter contract. Generally, service technicians arrived promptly (62%), but less than half of the service calls (42%) ended with the problem being fixed on the first visit, most often because the problem persisted.
