| Want to get rid of our cable, but internet alone is still $75+/month. What's the cheapest internet service that covers Montgomery County? Is there some secret cheap FIOS plan that I can ask for? |
| no gtfo |
|
I just went through this exercise and could not find high speed internet for less than $70-85/month - tried Cox, Verizon Fios, and Comcast.
I don't have access to Time Warner, AT&T, or Google Fiber so was sort of stuck. I'm so sad to lose Clear Internet - it was $50/month and fast enough to stream Netflix :/ |
| There is a 2 year 50 a month if you lock in 2 years. You have to take the tv with it and the rate goes to 70 after 2 years. This is FIOS. |
| I've been with fios for 3 yrs at $50 a mo |
|
FIOS at what speed?
I still pay a high cost for internet, but it beats the outrageous cable bill. |
| I've been sans cable for over 2 years. I have RCN for $50 per month. |
|
Cheap internet is an oxymoron. They have a crazy monopoly and they pay lots to lobby so it's never broken up.
Americans pay double to triple what Europeans pay for internet. |
I drive by their office everyday but never hear about their services! How is the reliability and speed? |
| I'm paying $30/month for internet in DC. |
|
Who remembers the days of $19.95 dialup?
Now we pay $50 to $70 at home, plus data plans for our phones. It's crazy. |

I have just been through this twice (old house and new) - it's actually significantly cheaper to keep basic cable (10 channels of public access) + internet than to go internet alone.
Both Comcast and RCN are offering deals on that "bundle" for $45/month right now. |
What???? comcast quoted me yesterday $140!!! |
Take a look at their website - it's advertised under the bundles... $45 for basic cable + regular speed internet (10 mps) or $55 for regular cable + super internet (75 mps). The first deal expires Friday, but the second is good through the end of September. |
| Comcast $50/mo, locked in for 2 years. Then DirecTV, $32/month, locked in for 1 year then no contract after, will have to renegotiate then. |
