We are a little over $200 a month for Comcast TV, Internet and home phone.

the home phone is worth nothing ....the internet should be about $50 per month for unlimited high speed. You're getting raped like most everyone else I know with comcast

Agreed.  Home phone is a way to "bundle and save" but worthless unless you don't have a cell.  And hell...every ghetto creature has a smart phone!

They told me our internet, which is now $59/mop will jump to $89 if I cancel cable.  I'm about to enlist some kind muslims to visit these muthers.

Cell service sucks up here. AT&T works here, but doesn't work for shit in NH. We both had Verizon smartphones when we moved here that were worthless unless we drove to one particular spot in town that had two bars of service. So we canned the cell phones, got the home phone package and picked up a cheap TracFone for when we were in the car. Now our cell phone bill is $20 every three months. .

There are some people here that get a cell phone booster.  It's like an antennae that boost the signal.  Shit works damn well.  I was surprised.  I can go through a dead area and maybe have one bar and pull up to a buddies cabin and have a full load.  IT's actually quite impressive.  I guess it depends on how far you are away from an tower.

We don't miss it at all. The tracfone does what we need it to do for less than $7/mo. What we save on cell service pays for our TV, internet and home phone.

I'm gonna get verizon unlimited and use that with a firestick or something

I could buy another receiver and have my dad get an access card for it. I may do that 

Bills are out of control for sure.  110 North and 160 South.....I do get 100$ from the company per month so that pretty much pays north...

I also have chrome cast which we hardly use now with smart sets. But it did a kick ass job when we used it.   :bc:

welcome to the club. i ditched all satellite and cable going on 7 years. people talk about tv shows and i get to stare at em with a blank expression. it's pretty cool. i get everything i need off youtube and various podcasts. you also get a bird's eye view as to how programmed people are by cable news.

Fuck that. I beat them down to the 90 double play they give new customers and gave up a handful of channels when it went back over 200 again but I don't need the home phone like you do in the sticks. Although with all these phones having WiFi calling you could probably just have cells.

I had a weak cell signal in my home, but most other places it was good (Verizon).  I route cell calls via my cable modem now--wifi calling (while in the house) so no more dropped calls etc....and without the need to buy a booster.  Simple tweak of the cell phone's settings was all it took. :bc:
