I have ComCast for TV Phone and Internet. ComCast added programing. I have absolutely excellent service from ComCast and so I am very satisfied

Century Link south of 466A
 
We moved into Sanibel last December and are Snowbirds. Left in January and put our Century Link service on vacation hold. Returned in April and from the day we took it off vacation major problems. While in TV in April we disconnected service and are now with Bright House and couldn't be happier. No one knows what they are doing at Century Link, a lot of misinformation, went a week with no Prism (to make matters worse it was during the Master's). Up until yesterday, we were still dealing with them regarding our final bill even though we didn't have service with them since April 18. I would not recommend Century Link to anyone. Even the supervisors don't know what is going on.

The service area map on their website includes all of The Villages. Is it that they don't have the cables laid above 466a?

Paul, the Brighthouse rep. in TV has posted saying they were only south of 466A. If you put Brighthouse in the search field you will find his post. He has been alerting us when new streets become available.

We just went to Direct TV...I think it is best to change when you contract is up. Our new tv broke and the repairman suggested which switch services every two years. They handled prism, direct and dish. They said that way you have the latest equipment and get all the discounts. We did change from dish to direct TV. We have a dvr that records more than the last one we had. I am getting use to the new controls that have a lot more features than the direct one and we get the NFL package for one year...movies channels for three months.

I found with dish even though they said the phone price was inexpensive...with all the taxes....I dropped it immediately and went with a voip service for 19 a month and no taxes. You can use all your regular phones and have all the great phone extras.

You might want to try Century Link Prism which has a special on at the moment for 6 months with no contract!

We bought our house in Sanibel last Thursday and on Friday had Brighthouse installed. Paul Muniz, the sales rep, gave us a great deal, and Tim who installed all of it, was wonderful. They're knowledgeable and very thorough. We're pleased with it. The only thing missing is The Villages TV channel, but rumor has it that it's coming to us this fall.

Brighthouse
 
Another vote for Brighthouse!

We are going with Bright House, cheaper, faster Internet and NO CONTRACT but a price guarantee for 24 months minimum. No brainier for us.

Centurylink seems to be getting more business in the southern part of The Villages. My brother in law just had them out. The bundled prices (cable, HD, DVR, high speed internet, phone) is less than Comcast. I had several problems with Comcast the first year (equipment failure, recording problems, service problems connecting digital adapters). Equipment and recording problems seem to have been rectified now since they've implemented the new digital service. It's frustrating that we have to get the digital adaptors for all tvs now. Only two are free. Compare high speed internet speeds if that's important. My brother in law said Centurylink is slower than Comcast.

How much for their phone internet and Cable package? Is their cable 1080P for best picture?

Tks

We also live in Sanibel (snowbirds). Had major problems with Century Link and changed to Bright House--they are great!
