Nicksfinity? I have 3 accounts
 
3 accounts

For the same address

$62…..$0.62…..$29.95
And I do not have Xfinity internet service or phone.

I have Internet only, lowest tier, and got the $9 increase. The service increase was only $4. The discount for Autopay by credit card was reduced from $10 to $5, hence the $9 difference. I just switched from credit card to bank account for Autopay to get the $10 discount again so next month I will only see the $4 increase to $56. Not worth switching service over $4.

I just bought a new house in Dabney and it came preinstalled with Centric Fiber. I bought the unlimited 1000 GB plan for $65 a month and am pleasantly surprised at how good the internet is! I work on a computer 10 hours a day and am a heavy bandwidth user. Speedtest.net is showing 350 to 500 WIRELESS which is phenomenal! The only internet I've had that came even close to that was manually connecting to the modem with a cable.

So far very happy (and impressed) with Centric Fiber.

Xfinity sent me a letter a month in advance of my 5$ price increase. I’m fine with it. Thanks to Joe, everything costs more.

Xfinity …..shameless.
 
There's a difference. Shameless means like, brazen. The person has no shame about what he or she is doing. Shameful means that, to an outside observer, usually, the act should inspire shame.

Centric. Fastest, great customer service, reliable. $65/mo 1gig speed. All equipment included, no extra fees. I'm a user, not sales person. Living in Newell.

We use Quantum ($60/month for internet access only), then see what you like. We just use YouTube to watch news clips. If you want ABC, CBS, CNN, etc. you can signup for YouTube TV, dishNet, etc separately without needing a satellite dish.

Contact me and I'll show you how to cut the cable and save at least $125/mth and have all the channels you get on cable. Over 250 customers in the villages.

Here is some advice for everyone with any contract with a provider. Mark your calendar for the date you are scheduled to renew. Call a week before and negotiate with them. Ask for any new promotion. I just did this last week with XFinity. Instead of the close to $50 increase I would have been hit with, I am now paying $8 more than last year. I can do that and I don’t have to go elsewhere. I do the same thing with SiriusXM every year. But you must call before you automatically renew. Good luck.

They keep you as a customer because negotiation of rate increases is possible.
They lost me as a customer because negotiation of rate increases is necessary.

I have xfinity phone service and internet. My internet costs $46/month for blast.I do have to call every year and renew otherwise the cost goes up to $65. I get this rate because i have 2 services with them. There cell coverage runs off of verizon network and we never have a problem. It costs $60 for 2 lines unlimited data. Can't really do better than $106/month for phone and internet.

Mine with Xfinity went up by 45 dollars. Called to negotiate and no luck this time. In the North we have no other options for a provider.
