Your right. I don’t understand why EdNJ has only gotten small price increases over the years. You can have a 2 year agreement with them then rental equipment prices go up, prices increases for certain services are imposed, or taxes/ fees go up and are passed to customers. I have been with them for 9 years and will leave when this agreement is done. As a new customer or existing customer when negotiating a new agreement you can bargain with them. BUT their annual price increases regardless of your agreement are included in your bill. In February 2021 tv box rental went from $5 to $7.50 monthly, broadcast tv fee went from $14. To $18.50, regional sports fee went from $8.25 to $9.20, taxes/other charges went up$1.60. About $10. More monthly and usually 2 increases a year. I don’t watch sports by the way. So if I am paying more than others please let me know.
