They are also the sole Cable provider in Rhode Island.

Besides Rhode Island they do not have a big footprint and are 3rd largest preceded by Comcast and Time Warner.

Like all service monopolies, customer service is not a top priority. They are known to piss many people off and chase them out to Satellite TV since each cable company has a monopoly in the areas they serve.

Cox also offers Internet and Phone, and will give you the triple play offer which is Cable, Internet, and phone for $100. Otherwise though, their services are expensive. It is not unheard of to pay for $100 on digital cable alone with Cox after taxes and rental fees. The company goes as far as charging a rental fee for the REMOTE.

As far as Cox internet goes, for the most part, it is competitive with DSL. Most of their packages are $3 to $5 more or less than DSL's equivalent. Service is not the best and you will always find yourself stressing when calling the customer service line, for all of Cox services.
Cox cable sucks balls. I payed $50 for basic cable before switching to Satellite. Their Internet is decent I guess. You can't really complain if you have Verizon as the other option for Internet. Still sucks though. Their phone service after the smoke and mirrors isn't that pleasant. It's almost like Verizon which charges you for other phone features, most which come standard on cell phones. Even the prepaid ones.

Cox High School

Definitely the most white high school in Virginia Beach. It's full of the richest, beach-going, well-dressed, and party-loving kids of the 757, and we usually get a bad rep for it. Cox has also been dubbed the "druggie school" of VB, and for good reasons. Both the Junior and Senior parking lots are full of BMWs, Mercedes', Lexus', etc. We've won an endless number of state championships in many different sports, including field hockey, volleyball, soccer, and more. We've been admired for excelling at academics as well.For the most part, the majority of girls and guys at Cox are also somewhat attractive; it's just a fact. It's well known as the 'rival school' to nearby high school First Colonial, but everyone knows its clearly because FC kids are jealous of us. Though the students at our school is sometimes viewed as "snobby" or "fake", there really are some genuine kids here; everyone just likes to stereotype before they get to know people. It's an really an honor to say I go to this school. Overall, Cox High School is a pretty rad place to be.
Cox High School was definitely the best school to spend my high school years at.

Cox High School

Cox High is full of snobby ass white kids who think that they are the shit. It is full of preppy rich girls and stupid skater/surfer blonde guys. and of course the black kids who think that they own the entire school. They will walk so SLOW right infront of you and then just stop so you trip behind them. or they will just stand there in the middle of the hall like they own it, or when they walk act like YOU have to move out of THEIR way because they are superior. There is not one "real" person there except for the nerds. At least they have the guts to be themselves. They don't act like someone that they aren't. All of the girls are backstabbers and all of the guys just want to get in your pants. It is full of stupid immature dramatic druggies. At least every person in that school has done or is doing drugs or drinking. Its not a secret. That is why we have visits from dogs who go around sniffing for them. This school and everyone in it should burn or learn to be themselves. and lately its full of teen girls getting pregnant.
