Re: Spinoff from curlysue's post. Who do you use for phone, cable, internet?

curly - I just went thru all that myself but since I didn't have the time to research - I did the standard. I can use this thread myself. I had not turn on fees - so it will make it easier to change later on!

Phone -Verizon - first bill $75!! (and I make like 5 calls a month - typically!)

Cable - Cablevision - not sure how much yet - I think I did the Silver Plan

Modem - Cable Vision 19.95 first three months if you install yourself (then I will consider that or Verizon DSL)

Cell - Verizon - waiting on my first bill - can't remember what I signed up for.

Re: Spinoff from curlysue's post. Who do you use for phone, cable, internet?

If you use MCI neighbor or Sprint neighbor plans you get all day, all night, all calls in the US for one set price, like $49. much cheaper than Verizon.

Cable- I HATE Cablevision but yes, I have it
Internet is also the dreaded nemisis Cablevision.

Niecey...the bill may have been that high because they charge you for a month in advance and the current month when you first open up a line....

Re: Spinoff from curlysue's post. Who do you use for phone, cable, internet?

feb- I am not sure - the billing period was dated May 30 - July 4 or 6th. My plan is $45.99 but I think it was a little more like $54 or something for the extended range. Then the $10 charge for dial tone and then the rest was all surcharges and taxes. I have the plan with unlimited local and regional calls being all the calls we make are basically to our families which is all 718 (regional). I don't need unlimited long distance because I don't think in a year I have more than 2 long distance calls - I am a email person and then if I do I can use my cell on off hours! I think we may change to sensible minutes or something like that and see how that goes for us. I will eventually get it all sorted. I rarely use my phon ebut it was out for like 2 weeks and I felt lost without - I think the feelign of not being able to if you need to bothered me and I hate cell phones (I only got one because DH and I need it to coordinate commuting now!)

Re: Spinoff from curlysue's post. Who do you use for phone, cable, internet?

AS&S (or, AT&T - whichever you prefer) for home & cell - ~$50-60/mo on home and $32 on cell

Cable - not sure - it's included in our rent, but I think it's Cablevision

Internet - we're wireless thru cable and it's paid for by our company due to FHs line of work.

Re: Spinoff from curlysue's post. Who do you use for phone, cable, internet?

beachbride...where does he work? I worked for them for 10 years, up until September.

They DO have really good benefits


HOWEVER, now that I have to actually PAY for cable and internet, I can understand what everyone complains about!
