Comcast/Xfinity Price Increase!
 

Here we go again! Comcast/Xfinity is increasing their prices again at the end of January! Are they improving their service along with the price increase! I think not! If you're a Comcast/Xfinity user, check your current bill and read the explanation concerning price increases for some of their services.:shocked:chilout

Comcast ranked as WORST company in the nation and I concur!!!!!

Is this our monthly “beat up on Comcast” post? If you take the time to work with Comcast you can avoid or reduce these fees. For example, purchase the modem, or with the extensive On Demand offerings, do you really need that DVR service? Do a little homework and save.

Cable service/internet is not regulated. They can charge whatever the market will bear.

My initial 2 year agreement is expiring. I have the triple play starter bundle, and thinking of upgrading to the premier triple play bundle for the next 2 years, which looks like the same price I am now paying. Is this a good deal or am I missing something? It is about $170 per month, and I have 2 tvs and dvr service.

$131 triple play with HD, hbo stream pix and dvr. Use fire stick for anything else. While not thrilled with Comcast still the best deal for us

Received a letter today from Spectrum to announce a price increase of over 30%. So, I called them to negotiate a one year continuation of my current charge for internet. I suppose I will need to do the same next year.

Our home up north is in a very rural location and we do not have any wired internet connection, only satellite which is very expensive, slow, weather dependent, and has restrictive data caps. I would absolutely love to have service from the WORST ranked company in the nation, it would be way better than no service at all. When we go to our Villages home and actually have wired high speed internet we can not believe our luck : )

Ok, I am in the minority here, but Comcast works for me. Good service in my opinion. Love the X1 service. Oh well, different strokes. They have been helpful to me with few exceptions. Life is short. Enjoy

I have Comcast/Xfinity for only Internet -- Performance Starter @ $49.95/month. This is not an introductory price.

In mid-December, the Performance Starter bandwidth was boosted from 10 Mbps to 25 Mbps at the same price. And the cost of Performance Starter is not going up in January 2018.

When our two year contract expired in September Comcast wanted to increase the price by 20%. We were able to negotiate the same rate locked in for two more years.
Unfortunately they will not negotiate all the fees and our January bill has increases of over $4 per month for their built-in fees.
I especially like the "Regional Sports Fee" charged for something we never use.
While the $4 fee increase is not an outrageous amount it does give me more reason to seriously explore going cord less in September 2019 when our current package expires.

Cancelled Them
 

We had Comcast for years both up north and in Florida and after suffering their abuse finally got rid of them and went to Direct TV. Of course like any other non regulated company you have to watch them like you would a burglar at your door but they are good and we are happy!:BigApplause:

Just upped my internet speed to 100MPS from 75, and sent me a note to reboot the modem. So yes,

I am with you. Comcast is a company we “love to hate”. Technology in this field is changing rapidly. Sony Vue, YouTube TV, Hulu, Slingbox, OTA anttenas, there a lots of options. I have not found an option as good as Comcast. They have millions of customers, but they are willing to work with you to keep from losing one.

If you have a Roku Stick or box, I would suggest looking at the Xfinity app. It may save you a few bucks and provide better options!

twoplanekid... could you give more info on spectrum... speed of internet and $$cost... or do you have to bundle tv, phone and intermet
