We will soon be moving to Hammock at Fenney. As a matter of fact our house is supposed to be starting construction today. We are anxiously waiting to move in early Feb. 2022.

Our question is regarding cable and internet service. Which companies offer service in the area? We have talked to Spectrum and they do not know anything about the new area. Since I assume people have started moving in recently there must be service???????????

We moved into St. Catherine earlier this year. Both Xfinity and Spectrum have cables running to the box. Not sure if they're doing that in every new Village but if you can take a peak in the low voltage box in an existing under construction house you might be able to tell.

When we first moved here Spectrum didn't know we existed either. They need some time for their system to catch up.

Welcome! I live south of 44 and use Xfinity.

had Spectrum, it was expensive. Only benefit is you go month to month. Switched to xfinity and am very happy

Your sales rep should be able to get you an answer

We bought in Fenney early in 2017 and Spectrum couldn't tell us if it was available or not, they had to send someone out and it was into the boxes but not into the homes, it took them about an hour to run it in. We stayed with them until their prices went sky high and then switched to Comcast/Xfinity which was also available in Fenney. My guess is you will have both available by the time you get here, I'm sure the lines are already buried over there.

Century link and direct TV the most economical

You might want to try Tmobile. We just dropped our Spectrum service in Ohio and picked up Tmobile as our Internet provider. Now we are just streaming with Hulu and Netflix we are currently saving about $100 a month.

Does anyone know if TV is installing fiber optic lines in that area as opposed to the old fashioned coaxial cable?

We moved into Fenney in Dec 2018 and have CenturyLink, 1Gb Fiber, with price for life "contract". So glad I don't have to haggle with these cable/internet companies annually now.

My northern experience has been - Spectrum & Xfinity customer service was horrible to put it nicely and I had to deal with extra charges with Xfinity data limits when we started streaming and went over on monthly data in CO but understand FL also has the limit.

Do your due diligence, your mileage may vary............

I have have CenturyLink, 1Gb Fiber too. It's now called Quantum Fiber and you have to go to the Quantum Fiber web site to order it. CenturyLink spun off this business which is good. For $65/month you get 1GB bidirectional internet and can stream all your content. Much better than cable. Very reliable and no fees and taxes. Every home in the Villages i believe from 2015 on has fiber already installed at the house but not many people know what it is. Incredible!

Build is starting today ? You’ll be moving in about 3-4 months from now unless things have changed. We moved into our new home in Citrus Grove about a month ago ….

Word of advice ……. Assuming you made changes or additions to the regular plans, you need to closely monitor the building process to make sure that things are being done properly and according to the blueprints…..

We visited our build DAILY and we found several mistakes right away which would have been very hard to fix later on ….. just one brief example….. we paid extra to have All WOOD STUDS in our home……. You guessed it , they installed metal studs as they normally would in a “regular” build !

Yep , they had to come back in and remove all of the wood studs and replace them with wood studs !

Bottom line is that “the boys” are not carefully looking at the plans/specs as they go along !

Xfinity does a great job in this area

I would assume your sales agent would know what service providers are being wired into the new area but most likely, Spectrum and definitely Xfinity.

You’ll love TV. But one caution, properly taxes are higher & Bond is higher. Also if you do anything entertaining you have to drive a bit.But don’t let that discourage you, you’ll love it! There just a lot more to do north of 44. CONGRATULATIONS on your new home. TV is a Disneyland for retirees!
