Hello there my friend. Thru negotiating and staying on top of these Cabal's like companies you can save a bundle of money.
1) CenturyLink $45 for life--nope $35 because the speed on our
side of the street is slower. DSL not Cable.
2) DirecTV-- Next to the biggest package with the Giants & Jets
for the Football season for free with all deductions and help
from shedding a tear. $70 a month total with taxes and fees.
3) My Very Favorite--Verizon. I almost switched to Cricket
because I respect and remembered your post but the terms for
buying an Iphone were not as good as Verizon so the fun and
games continue with them but it has gotten much easier with
them, a 55+ plan with Unlimited Data for 2 lines for $80.
Please, now we can listen to Sirius in the Golf Cart when we
wonder around aimlessly on a relaxing ride nearly every night
without worrying about exceeding the Data. I still turn it off
immediately when we're done.
4) Homeowners, Car, Golf Cart Insurance thoroughly shopped
and investigated yearly. To bad N.J. Manufacturers doesn't
service Florida, they service Pennsylvania now.
The point is there is no more loyalty from these companies
toward us so why would I be loyal to them? I have owned a
New Ford every 3 years since the 80's. Not this time around.
What did my loyalty get me? Cacca su Una Ghiaia. Nothing.
Gets me a 3 year 36,000 mile warranty instead of 10 year
100,000 mile warranty. I'm finished with them all. Best deal is
the name of the game. Sorry for the rant but I've been on with
non speaking tech support for close to 8 hours to resolve a
problem so I can sell my Dell and HP Computers. It's nerve
wracking. Take Care my Very Favorite Bums! LOL Bless You!
P.S. Sirius, my favorite and easiest. Just say you are going to
cancel and you keep getting the $30 for 6 month promotion and
it include streaming to your phone and computer if you keep
threatening to quit. Can't show any weakness or they will win.
