Renegotiate your contract prior to that date and they will work with you. Once your contract renews, you are stuck. I began with CenturyLink which was a nightmare. I currently have XFinity (Comcast) and found that they do not raise my bill every month like CL did. I wish Verizon’s FIOS was available here. It was THE best service I have ever had.
Yes, it is very important to know when your contract expires and to set up a new contract before that date. But, to clarify, the Xfinity contract does not automatically renew for additional 2 years. However, you will lose the contract discounts and go on a month to month basis unless you set up a new 2 year contract. Unfortunately, Xfinity doesn't notify you of this, and the bill goes up and people think that Xfinity arbitrarily raised their prices.
