Our package is so convoluted I have no idea what is what price. We have land line phone, TV and Innernet with ATT now. Might go with just innernet and some sort of VOIP and then maybe a basic Dish package and supplement with Netflix and Hulu. Our cell phones are with Verizon with no contract in effect for those.

Comcast supposedly throttles after 250g/month but they claim they don't do that anymore except in some markets. Its doing a little better now on the ping..

weighing my options it looks like i'll probably go with comcast
i'm tired of the nice intro rates and then getting slammed on the back end
Yeah, it's a racket for sure...My wife worked customer service for years and knows all the right things to say so they hooked us up...We have our cells with them as well so that made a difference I'm sure. Hope Comcast gives you a good intro rate...Time Warner, here, jumps through hoops to get people to switch offering great rates and one and two hundred dollar gift cards.
