Dear Subscriber:
PRICE INCREASE EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 1, 1992
On February 1, 1991, your monthly rate for basic cable service will increase by $3.80. The new
basic cable rate will be $21.95. These prices compare favorably to basic cable TV prices in the
surrounding area. In fact, we continue to be the one of the most affordable cable companies
around as indicated below:
BASIC TAX/FEE TOTAL
Chartwell Cable Weld County $21.95 included S21.95
Scripps Howard Cable Berthoud/Loveland S21.95 $1.00 $22.95
Scripps Howard Cable Longmont S21.95 $1.00 $22.95
The rates for HBO, Showtime and The Disney Channel will remain unchanged, and as always, we
will continue to provide free service and repair to all our customers.
CHARTWELL CABLE'S COST HAVE RISEN OVER THE PAST YEAR
Like you, we have been subjected to the inflation that our economy is facing today. Some of our
costs have increased by more than 25%. This rate adjustment (equal to 15.0%) is necessary to
help us offset increased costs:
• The fees that we pay to each of the channels (like ESPN, The Discovery Channel,
CNN Headline News) increased 27% over last year.
• Our costs for labor, materials and the gasoline we use to fuel our customer service
vehicles increased a total of 20%.
• The fee we pay to the local power company to use their utility poles costs us one
full month of revenue. Being a rural cable TV system, our costs per customer
served are higher than a cable TV system in town.
CHARTWELL CABLE WILL ENHANCE THE BASIC CABLE SERVICE
We will be adding TNT to our basic line up sometime in the late spring.
CHARTWELL CABLE IS MORE THAN WHAT YOU SEE ON YOUR TV
We pride ourselves on excellent customer service! Our goals are to offer quality service and the
variety in programming you expect from cable television.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for you business.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call us at 800/750-7371, Monday through Friday,
8:30 AM to 5:30 PM.
