Thread: *@?! COMCAST

They are too expensive....just letting you know why I haven't been on in a while, I was disconnected, but I'm back so watch yourself.

Thank goodness.... we've missed you. And yes most cable ISP's are a pricey investment. We used to have a 100 dollar a month cable and Internet bill with Time Warner Cable, now we have a 50 dollar a month bill with Direct Satelite TV and Verizon DSL. The sacrifice is, bad storms = no TV, and the slow speed of DSL means I'm fodder for the guy with the faster connection in game.

Thats the only real benefit of working for Comcast is I get it all for free except the phone.

Dude, I got comcast and its OK, way too pricey though! 100 bucks for TV an Internet!!

i can agree about DirectTV and storms, monsoon season is not good for having a dish, but at least its not severe storms every day here.

yeh i have comcast and im none to happy, but unfortunately they have a monopoly in my are because they bought out the competitor. i have the tv, internet and phone. i went into comcast a week ago and asked if i could drop the tv. my roomate just moved out and im paying for a 2 bedroom and wanted to save some cash.

anyway they told me no, then i said no... what do you mean no,, the lady replied you dont want to do that. i said why not. i dont even watch the tv. she said it would be more expensive if i droped the tv than it would be to have tv, internet and phone.

so because there is no alternative i had to keep the tv just so i would not have to pay more. its asinine
over a hundred and forty bucks.

Dude, what she told you is a bunch of BS! We pay about 100 bucks here for TV and Internet so if you drop the TV it should bring you down to about that.

Heh heh, I pay 59.99 a month, but I have Comcast HST; 22megs down, 12 up. Not bad.

But when I add my cable package, I end up with $133.## monthly bill.

The telecoms are raking it in.
