I took a look at the statements for the credit card where the charges go and it's been a flat $8 from Xfinity when we're in Indiana and $5 from Spectrum when we're in The Villages. Because of our schedule, the 90 day requirement for Xfinity hasn't been a problem. Spectrum's minimum has required a phone call or two to get them to drop the requirement, when we've returned to Indiana for the holidays and wanted to have internet while we were there. Considering alternatives, this has been the best program for us. We dropped our TV services in favor of youtube TV when our provider dropped the big ten network, which youtube carries.
