They've been shitty since TWC bought them. Maybe a little before when they killed their old web interface which was informative and fast and replaced it with a new design that was difficult to read information, and worst of all, slow as fuck. That's about when I stopped subscribing.

worst of all, slow as fuck.

So true. Waiting 30 seconds to see the temperature is ridiculous.

It takes all of 2 seconds to open the door. Guess what? The temperature is hot.
