Comcast changes my pricing AGAIN!!!

**huh?** · 11-21-11, 03:20 PM

It seems like every 3-6 months my price changes. I only have basic TV channels up to channel 99 or something, no HD or premium and what not, and internet up to 12mb? I started out with $60 a month, then $80, then $100, now $115. When it was $80-100, I even called and confirmed that it's the final price, without promotion, and will not change again. WTF. I mother f@cking hate calling and bitching at them. I just wish there is better options around here. I don't like DSL that much and I hate having a dish on my patio or side of house. Comcast is definitely my first world problem. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't you love monopolies? #OCCUPYCOMCAST

man, you guys in USA get screwed. Here 100MB cable is cheap. Kabel BW GmbH - Internet & Telefon

yep, thats €30 for 100MB cable. or €40 for 50MB with a nice TV package. Too bad the USA allows cable to have local monopolies.

does Pay TV include channels that show soccer? If so I'm moving to germany, I know enough of the language to survive

I think the sports package on KabelBW has severl 24/7 Fußball channels.

Might be wrong, but don't you have ridiculously low cap on how much internet you can use? i.e. 50GB / month?

There are no caps on cable or DSL that I have ever heard of. And believe me, Americans over here are bandwidth hogs because we have to use the Internet for so much. The comforts of home are brought here via services like VOIP, Skype, Netflix, Hulu, Slingbox, Steam (and begrudgingly Origin) and many others. I do not know many people who want to watch TV or movies in dubbed German. My cell phone does have a soft cap. 300MB per month then it drops the speed down to 128k/sec. The cell cap is not a big deal really though.
