New York Attorney General Letitia James and two other area attorneys general sent a letter to Altice USA, parent company of Optimum TV, on Thursday calling for refunds for customers who have been without MSG Networks since Jan. 1.

Regional attorneys general, including New York's Letitia James, demand refunds for Optimum customers amidst a blackout of MSG Networks due to a dispute with Altice USA.

Attorneys general from three states are demanding that cable company Optimum automatically refund customers who paid for MSG Network cable channels, but who have been denied access to the programming since the start of January.
