wcbstv.com - Yonkers Woman Gets $1,100 Cable TV Porn Bill (http://wcbstv.com/topstories/local_story_118082419.html): "(AP) YONKERS A 62-year-old retired schoolteacher from Yonkers is fighting with Cablevision over an $1,100 bill for porn and gangsta rap.
Claudia Lee said the charges appeared on her February bill, one month after she bundled her Cable TV, computer and phone services together with Cablevision.
Despite Cablevision's assurances to the state Attorney General's Office that her problem would be resolved, Lee has been forced to pay the company $779 and must cough up an additional $652 by today or her phone, Internet and television service could be cut off.
Cablevision said Lee may not have ordered the Playboy Channel programs, but someone in her home did. Lee counters that she lives alone in her one-bedroom apartment, and is only visited by her 81-year-old mother -- who is not a porn fan.
She said someone has pirated her service. She added that every time she calls Cablevision, she gets somebody new to whom she must retell her problem.
Lee has written to the state Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Frauds and Protection. In a March 21 response letter to Lee, the bureau advised her that Cablevision had agreed to the bureau's request to resolve Lee's complaint."
