Comcast just keeps increasing their charges. Any suggestions for alternatives in the Villages?

Direct TV, Dish, Prism (CenturyLink) and the ATT alternative to Prism. Let your fingers do the walking! We have Prism after having Direct TV and love it.

If you live south of 466a you can get Brighthouse. We have them and love it, service is great.

What makes Brighthouse a great alternative for cable service? Would appreciate replies. How does service/cost compare to Comcast and major service providers?

Well with Brighthouse you don't have a contract, but have your price is locked in for 24 months. Service can't compare with comcast, when you do call,they actually can help you in a friendly manner, even if it is just figuring out how to use the system. Price is probably about the same but I think we get more channels with Brighthouse.

We already did the leg work and Dish and Direct were comparably priced and had an even worse increase in year 2. Don't know what the answer is - every month my bill is higher and their attitude is "too bad, so sad".

Have had Brighthouse now for two months. We are extremely pleased with the company .....prompt and courteous service from all their staff. Some minor glitches when we first began but they were quick to respond to our small problems. We are south of 466A.
