One can always get a better deal by cancelling their current service and going with a new provider. A neighbor of ours cancelled their Dish net work which was around a hundred dollars per month. Had his wife open a new customer order.....got their introductory plan, 160 + locals for $59 per month locked in for two years!!!!!!!

There is obviously a higher priority for these providers to try to attract a new customer than retain the current subscribers.

One just has to take the time to play the game and find the best deal.

A status the providers have created.....makes no sense.
They are all struggling with the current evolution to streaming and fiber optic technologies.

Take the time and shop/compare.

160 channels and 149 are worthless, all the good channels comes on packages, course at higher rate.
