Not true. They raised prices for many people from $30 to $40 about 6 months ago (or so).

Early on, Quantum had several low speed options all the way up to 1Gbs. They got rid of those low speed options and now have speeds from 500GBs-8Gbs depending where in the Villages you are located. These are all standard speeds that the rest of the industry is offering so, I suspect these services will be around for several years and you won't have to worry about any price increases like you do with cable.

Also, you didn't mention about last December where Quantum actually lowered their pricing. For one month, Quantum let Existing and New customers get the 1Gbs service for $35, price for life, not a promotion. Many who had the 1Gbs for $75 and the 500Mbs for $50 went on-line and in about 10 minutes switched to the 1Gbs for $35 plan. I hope they do this again this year!

No service is perfect but with cable you know for certain aftere 1 or 2 years they will raise your price where with Quantum we don't know but their recent history points to no price increases, at leat for a while.
