I have actually filed a complaint with the FTC regarding this issue.

I have had cable Internet for years, first with Comcast, then AT&T, now back to Comcast.

During the entire time, I have been a Dish user and have had only the Internet function.

My cost has remained the same the entire time.

Until now that is.

Now, I am being told that in order to continue the same service I have had for years, I must pay an additional 15 bucks a month to recieve the same service that I get now, with a Cable TV service I did not ask for nor that I want in order for my rate to stay the same.

It seems that Comcast has simply decided that ALL of their customers must subscribe to both services, which of course is much more profitible for them, while adding no features or benefits to the package. The Cable TV signal is the same one that has always been on the pipe, nothing has been added.

Yet the price goes up 15 bucks a month.

Sweet deal for Comcast.

I and all the other Internet only subscribers get screwed.

I urge anyone else in this same position to do the same, file a complain with the FTC.

The only way that this will change is to make noise.

Cheers,

If you don't like the prices they charge, just don't use their service. You have no right to use government force to get prices or services that you want.
