So, you end up going through all the hassles of turning in equipment, having new people come and install new, and the when they double your price and keep adding on more "fees", you have to do it all again.... Maybe the really bright folks have the right idea, get a roku and then buy individually those channels you really use instead of having to take a group package to get the one or two you actually watch ???? Thought about it, then found to have internet ONLY to use the ruku exclusively, costs over $90 with all the taxes and "fees".... Can't get a break ! So, it you use firestick or roku, and take $60 in monthly channels, your right back to $160 a month bills !

I pay $50/month for xfinity internet, $65/month for YoutubeTV. You can now get the locast app which will give you all the local Orlando stations for free (with ads) or for something like $5 or $6, ad free. I bought my own modem/router, so no paying rent to Comcast. That will pay for itself in 10 months and the equipment is better. I travel back and forth to another home, YoutubeTV goes with me. No separate equipment.
