Cable Bill??

Digital cable here, no movie packages.
Sci-fi channel, Miltary channel, Nat Geo, etc.

62$ a month.

We just switched to Dish network top 120 package with single (dual) tuner.
No DVR or HD upgrades. All the channels we had before except
Military & Nat Geo channel.   For the next 10 months its 35$ goes up to 45$ when the promotion ends.

That includes paying 5$ a month for local channels which Cable gets to add on for free.  Cable one has applied 3 years in a row to raise rates for fargo. All 3 times denied. Yet 2 or 3 months later the bill goes up anyway.  Probably raising fee's, etc (always a loophole someplace)

This is for Fargo North Dakota & Cable one.

BBC TV licence £126.50 a year or around £10.50 a month = USD $18/month.

Not in Concord,CA - where I used to live, and only 34 miles from Dixon. When I first moved there, I could only get one TV channel, with lousy reception, and it carried commercials.

I get five terrestrial TV channels now (BBC1 and BBC2 are commercial free), and for a one off payment for a set top box could get about 6 more channels, but the standard channels are fine for me.

At work we have a TV that is for DVD use but it has some rabbit ears.... It will get at least 3 regular channels plus a public channel (like bbc) plus about 3 UHF stations  all for free if one wanted.

I'll second that, and my TV bill is $150.23 every month. Includes all the channels excluding some of the sports channels which I don't care anything about.
