I got a flyer in the snail mail the other day that said "surf fiber internet will soon be available to you". My Mom has fiber internet in another state, and I know it's fast for her (albeit she has verizon fios). I live in the USA Midwest Chicago area- and I have had comcast xfinity for 20+ years here. They are a ripoff. I am charged 88.95 a month USD. I have no TV or any other services other than basic internet (I think it's the second lowest speed- they may call it "performance internet")
What I did notice (and this may be a coincidence) was that they must be doing some construction on my street because they made survey marks on my property and painted where the gas line and water lines are. Could this be because they are putting in the fiber cables?
Thinking of switching but want to get opinions of others. Besides cost reasons, comcast can suck off because they are basically part of other hollywood support corporations that are part of ACE. (this is the other reason I want to do it)
Price locked fiber? Crazy
With how tmobile set the stage, price locks are lies.
But watch out for addons, I recently had a similar switch, not price locked but good intro rates - not any cheaper after $13/mo for some service insurance type shot "so you don't pay for any service calls". I would rather pay when its needed, but getting off DSL and not having to switch to Mediacom is worth it
