Sorry, NOT CHEAPER for Basic Internet; which is all you need for streaming services. (Actually, Cheaper (yes); less expensive (no way).

Been there, done that....

We left Century Link ($45 @ Mo) 7Meg service.
And went to Comcast ($20 @ Mo) 28 Meg service.

Also, Century Link's installers play "whack-a-mole" in grabbing your line pair and using it on another new install to quickly "earn" there contractor fee.
Leaving you to report the problem and get a repair to your service in about 3 or 4 days. SUCKS!

Frankly, Century Link sucks on all levels!

The Comcast $20 @ Mo is a one year promo rate, BUT at the anniversary you can go to Villages Comcast store and leverage its renewing at the same $20.

Century Link, on the other hand, has NO STORES for customers to go to.
They are strictly an internet business Model company. All installers are "independent Contractors" ergo, NO tax liability to Century Link. And, ergo, NO RESPONSIBILITY to the customer.

Again, can not stress it enough,
Century Link sucks on all levels!
