Post by: DREDIOCK on October 13, 2008, 06:49:16 AM
Just got the new bill for Verizon Fios.

Our bill just went from $148.94
To $199.99.

heh, I dont think so.
Office doesnt open till 8 AM
At which point they will be either reducing that or will be informed to expect a disconnect request.

With all the banter and hoopla from comcast about it's speed and consistency...... Roadrunner was far better and faster. I only wish Roadrunner had stayed in this market.

I pay $150/month, get 1500k/sec downloads from good sites, and have over half of the premium channels and extra HD content. Service levels hasn't changed really at all for me since the switch from Time Warner. Just don't see what the big deal is.

The big deal is that within 4 months of the Time Warner/Roadrunner take over by Comcrap they forced a hike well about the "about 5%" that they said it was going ot be.  Oh, I made a mistake.  It went to about 170, not 150 from 105 for the exact same services.  So, yeah, it was a big deal.  If AT&T goes the same route, bye-bye cable tv.
