That’s an oxymoron I suppose. Nothing they seem to do is logical.
We’re getting rid of cable tv. We don’t need it and currently we’re paying about $120 for both tv (just basic) and internet. So I called them today to drop the tv part, just keep internet. Of course they don’t want to lose me as a customer, so I was given these two options:
Drop the tv-internet only will cost us $59 month plus taxes/fees
I can sign up for some special 6-month plan, rate is only good for 6 months; both tv/internet will cost us $69 month plus taxes fees. This is $40 less than the $109 per month plus taxes/fees I am currently paying.
I chose the six month plan. Because…..we purchased a hdtv antenna, but with all this winter weather, Dan hasn’t installed it yet. This will at least carry us through the spring, even though it’s $10 more, we are still saving $40. We had planned on just doing without network tv, any shows we want to watch we can find online. The only thing we’d be missing is news and morning shows. I was ok with doing without them, but keeping them is nice too.
But here’s a thought…..hey stupid Comcast, why can’t you give me that $69 rate all the time, why just for six months? Of course they’re banking on me not calling in six months and cancelling, and conveniently and quietly my rates go back up to $109. Ha, they don’t know who they’re dealing with.
Call Comcast at 800-comcast to negotiate yourself a lower rate.
