He said that we never know what the future holds. He said remember when people were buying computers and thought they would never use up the memory that they came with. Honestly, he's a big gamer and I think he wants it for when he comes to visit. But again I changed from Xfinity to Quantum and I'm saving $30 a month. So I was okay accepting his recommendation.
So, you also sell lightning protection systems, jack of all trades?

One thing I will say about Xfinity is they now tell you the 1 year and 5 year promotion prices and what the price will be after the promotion is over. Unlike Spectrum, they tell you the promotion price but I couldn't find the price after the promotion anywhere on-line.

Quantum fiber is good, but they lie about the price being for life. They told me that mine was $30 for life and then raised it in about a year. Nothing is for life.

Yes we spoke about that. They did it one time in the past 4 years when they were converting over to the new Wifi7 equipment. They really didn't lie. If you read the agreement they can raise the price for a whole bunch of reasons, equipement costs are one of them.

I’d rather have an occasional price increase than to put up with the dismal customer service of Comcast and Spectrum. I’ve had both of them and will never go back.

Since you mentioned cable, Yikes, did you go to Xfinity's web site and see the new pricing? They must think people are stupid. They show a 1 year, 5 year and Everyday price. When you do the math, you can save some money but not that much. Same with Spectrum. And no matter what, if you go with them you will be put on their "over sold" network and get whatever speeds you can get at the time. But I did have a friend here in the Villages that got great speed most of the time with cable but we discovered most of his neighbors switched to fiber so the network segement he was on had plenty of bandwidth.

Me too. I had their $70 for two lines price for life plan. Until it wasn't.

Since you mentioned it. With cable you should install a cable specific surge protector on the line coming into your house since a lightning induced power surge can and does come into your home from the copper cable line. They are available on Amazon. With fiber, since it's non-conductive, no surge protections is needed.
