This is what happens when you have Millenials working for the Clinton Generation.

If you want jobs to come back to the USA, be careful what you wish for.

And you ask me why I’m switching to Verizon?

Why?

Comcast and Verizon Merge Without Merging

Comcast sells Verizon wireless plans and advertizing. My wife is an account exec for Comcast. Monday, she is resigning. Been praying for her to leave them for months and months. They are evil.

World Com is what I remember.

I think you are speaking of the governor of Virginia and presidential candidate in 2020?

I’m a sports fanatic and have gone without cable or dtv for 9 yrs ...please don’t make this sound like you have no choice. In such a horrible economy and bleak financial future I don’t identify with those who rationalize they can’t live without.

Your family will interact more. You can get clearwire and Ooma and save some bucks and be free of commie companies you are helping.

They have been over charging me for digital service boxes (3 x $2.99/month) fit Two years. I have called them multiple times.
If it was up to me, I would cancel cable altogether and go to just a dish.
However, my wife runs a business out of the house and FIOS is not available for internet here. We use Vonage for our phone because our cell service is sketchy at our house. There is a hill between us and the closest cell tower.

I get internet TV and broadband through the phone provider even though I live in a comcast area. Dish who I recently dumped also offers all those services.

My biggest problem is the fact that they give me 200 channels that I don’t watch for the 5 or 10 I watch on a regular basis and another 5 or 10 I might watch occasionally.

Despite the self righteousness of the internet Amish, there is good television out there for smart viewers. I usually start my day watching the BBC world news because American news barely touches world news. Then I flip over to FOX and fools for background noise for a while. Aside from that I’ve usually got the science channel on or some kind of history. ( The other night i watched a great history show about the WWII joint Canadian/American mountain fighting force “The black devils”)

“Despite the self righteousness of the internet Amish”

I refuse to PAY for television and its political indoctrination, when I know they destroyed free broadcast television to force people to pay for television they used to get for free. Instead, I use the Internet and, spit, YouTube (the evil Google) and other Internet resources to view what little television news is needed. Especially financial market news.

Then there is the quality television, Have Gun Will Travel (Richard Boone), Bonanza, Wagon Train, Rawhide....

Its not DSL. They just ran fiberoptic cable in the area and thats one of the reasons I switched. The DSL was terrible and I upgraded my internet service. I have to do a lot of work from home and need reliable service. It comes 12 and 20 something I don’t know the units. Only the 12 is available in my area, but it runs several TVs and the fastest internet I’ve ever had.

You might look into Dish or Direct TV, both offer internet service as well. My phone service and internet TV is Centurylink. Not sure how they will be, Ive only had it for a month but price is actually a little less than Dish and each TV can watch a separate program. With a 2 year old its nice to not have every TV in the house with disney channel.

nope. They have true satellite internet last I heard. Good luck! It feels good to dump comcast if you can find something comparable
