Comcast has a great deal now because they just began phone service in our area, so their package for phone, internet and cable is excellent. However, like with the others, the good deal ends in one year -upside is there is no contract and unlimited long distance.

I switched from Comcast two years ago to Dish because they had a great deal along with the Embarq phone service. However, when my contract ended recently, I went back to Comcast not only because Dish/Embarq prices had increased, but also because I was tired of my service frequently going off because of our frequent wind and thunder storms. Dish does have more channels.
