DirecTV vs Comcast - Opinions Please
For a few reasons that are not important here, I'm thinking about changing from DirecTV to Comcast. I already know Comcast's reputation for service (or lack thereof...heheh). So please hold that to a minimum. I've been a Comcast internet/phone customer for quite a while and have been satisfied. I just like to get opinions regarding their cable TV services.
Thanks in advance. |

It doesn't have all the choices that Directv has but has the ones we are interested in. Much less expensive. This isn't cable but it is an alternative provider of movies, regular tv stations, and cable stations and so on. If technical issues aren't resolved in a month or so we will probably go back to Directv. |

Does DirecTV Now have Fox Sports Sun...the Tampa Bay Rays baseball channel?

It has Fox FS1 and FS2. Is it one one of those channels?

If you need fast internet, stick with comcast. If slow doesn't bother you, go with century link.
If you're sticking with comcast for internet, stay with them for the rest. I literally have neighbors who come to my house to watch tv when there is bad weather because their dish is out. The internet is the deciding factor on this. I have Comcast and will never switch. I don't have customer service issues. I try to attract more bees with honey instead of acting like an entitled geezer who goes berzerk over a 10-minute outage... It's all in how you treat them... |

Have had Comcast for ages. Can’t say we’ve ever really had any serious problems with them. Service has been good...internet, phone and tv.

That is not exactly true. If you have CenturyLink via fiber to the house they offer a variety of speeds from 10 megabits per second to 1000 megabits per second (among the fastest consumer bandwidths available anywhere). If you are in an area with CentryLink via copper (aka DSL), it may be true. However, I believe most people become enamored with the "numbers". The amount of bandwidth most people need is relatively low.

I have DirecTV and Comcast for Internet only. Every year I re-negotiate with Comcast on price. As long as you are willing to bargain with them once a year you can get a good price. ‘‘This is my 3rd year and I have paid monthly $24.95 year one/$19.95 year two/and $29.95 this year. Most any providers, DirecTV included, will give you a better price or credits to off set so you don’t cancel your service.
