Default TWC switch from dish promo?

Anyone have any info on this or has anyone done this? I currently have Directv but am thinking of switching to TWC. I have no issues with Directv, just looking to save 75.00/month with their triple play and the bottom line is winning the battle. I was told by a rep about a switch from dish promo where you would get a credit from TWC if you had to pay to cancel your contract with a satellite provider, but they had no other info, such as how much $$ and the website for TWC is just as bad as Directv for finding out any info.
Thanks.

Generally, the "Triple-Play" advertised system is for SD TV - IP phone - slowest Internet.

By the time you add the HD, DVR and the 3 gig download speed, there won't be any $75 difference.

Can't say for sure, though. Its just my observations.

I've had the triple play from Comcast for over 2 years now. Even with 2 HDDVRs and close to 20M download speeds, my bill is $125/month. Not sure about Time Warner.

Is $125 a month $75 less that a satellite system would be per month?

To get a comparable satellite package + phone + Internet, I am saving $97 per month.
