but it's fios! fios! fios is great! thank god for fios! down with the cable companies! We should be grateful to give them our money after they could no longer milk their customers for 50$ for a basic dial tone!
Yeah... didn't you hear? It's cool to hate on Verizon FIOS now because they throttle Netflix. Only Google Fiber deserves our admiration now... or at least until they get get caught doing some unethical data mining of their customers. Or, until they also get big enough to be able to screw over their customers as well without having to care about repercussions.
Maybe you can bluff your way to a discount with Comcast by threatening to switch to the fios service that is supposedly available to you.Ugh... Verizon website initially said fios was available at my residence, but when I talked with someone on the phone about it they said it wasn't. =(
I guess I am stuck with Comcast. Suppose I might as well call them up and bitch about something.

I am not particularly worried over price, it is the sporatic internet issues that cause me want to switch. I am fine with what I pay, if I received the service I paid for. The TV works, but my internet will require a modem reset at least once a day as speeds crawl. This is also the 3rd modem they've given me.
I wish there was more competition in this space.
I dropped my connection at home because my cable provider increased my bill by 35%. I asked if they could give me my old rate and was told I wasn't eligible because there were no promotions for existing customers...I told them to cancel service and they offered me the promotional rate again.... That's when I told them they were lying sacks of crap for telling me there were no promotions available and I had them cancel my service. That was Charter.
