Done Bitchin'
Just got off the phone with Comcast. Can't believe how nice and friendly the Account Rep was that I spoke to -- He was freakishly helfpul and on the ball - Boy did I get lucky!.
Signed us up for the Triple Play Package, (cable, internet, & phone). We were thinking of doing this back in March, but then we were getting close on buying the house and figured it wasn't worth the hassle.... Finally, got around to making the call and I can't believe we didn't do it sooner.
Our monthly bill of $170/month sounds high, but it includes so much.... High speed internet and cable, which we were already pay about $130/month for, plus free long distance and toll calls. Our monthly Verizon bill has been $80-$100/month and we were barely using it - the fees, surchages, and taxes got ridiculous. As part of triple play, we get Showtime and HBO included... and you all know how much I have been clammoring for that. Another perk is that I can call Germany for 9cents/minute, without paying an additional international plan fee..... Gotta be able to call my OMA! While I was at it, I added a DVR box to our account, since our Tivo died. With Exam studying this is going to come in extremely handy. AND, the technician is bringing the box next week when he comes to handle the phone, so we don't have to go pick it up! A nice way to start the week!
