Comcast VS Verizon

[fish4striper]

Go with Verizon for their good bundle price. When they're contracts up, check prices again. Once it's wired, easy to switch either way. We're finally at a point where we don't have a monopoly. Screw them damn cable companys.

I'm saving $38 a month with the fios bundle. Not only is is cheaper it's way better. Nothing is perfect and I'm sure I'll have something to bitch about down the road but for right now I'm happy. Plus I'm going to get a free 19' LCD with the deal as well. Not too shabby!

wish I could switch to verison Fios...not available out here, I am stuck with comcast and it is OK but I know what I am missing. I need more bandwidth. I doubt I will see a fiber cable right to my house anytime soon.

What exactly does the bill come out to per month for net, tv and phone? I hate all the hidden costs..And do you have to sign a 2 year contract? What if you don't like it or someone comes out with a better deal?

My Verizon is a 2 year contract, price $94/ mos for TV ,computer, and phone. But they charged $30 for installation and $10 per box/mos. Some additional costs with taxes etc over Cablevision and they charge for phone # information.

They offered $200 gift certificate at Best Buy or 19in Sony as promotion to switch. You may want to be sure you can keep your same Tel #. To me having a phone when the power goes out is the best feature.

Cablevision was $126/mos and Verizon is costing $132 now with all the charges.
