I did the same thing years ago will Bell Atlantic....took off work 3 different times to fix a problem...inside guy said it was an outside problem..outside guy said it was inside...an endless loop....called corp headquarters and got the CEO's office...His admin said problem would be fixed. 10 min later repairman shows up and says "I don;t know who you know, but the my boss called me and said I don;t care what you are doing stop and go to this address and fix the problem immediately.."
head slap
The answer is a true ala carte option. So many channels i could do without. Even on youtube tv there are many channels ill never watch.
When I cancelled Cox about 6 months ago there was no deal to be had. OTOH, when I called about cancelling Sirius last month I got my subscription for Select cut to $77. for the year.
Cut my cable but kept internet and phone a few weeks ago. I had already dropped off my boxes but Cablevision upgraded my internet so they sent a guy out to change the modem. He was very clean and respectful. Had Clorox wipes and wiped everything down when he was done.
Xm Sirius always give u a deal if u say u will cancel. It’s usually best to reject their first offer too. I think I got 6 mo for $25 last time I ‘cancelled’
I use Hulu because of the Disney+ ESPN+ bundle. Disney+ is actually incredible and I don’t even have kids. If you have little ones it’s a no brainer.
That's my issue too. Since sports have been canceled, I got rid of all live-streaming services but prior to YES' removal from YouTube, it was my service of choice.
I'll say cutting the chord is probably the best decision I ever made and am in the same boat with YES Network as a Yankee fan. It takes some getting used to but it works well. As I was making my decision on streaming services, I was all set to sign up for YouTubeTV as they had a great line-up of channels and a nice looking interface. Two days after I started my YoutubeTV free trial, they dropped the YES Network. So I ended up going with Hulu which was slightly more expensive and worked out 300mbs internet plus phone line for $78 from Cablevision. Yankee games will be streamed on various other services like Prime, Facebook and ESPN throughout the season but over the summer, I tend to ONLY watch Yankee games at night so I didn't want to be limited to the select games on those services.
For comparison purposes, Cox in CT is charging me $84 out the door for 150 internet. Upgrading to "Gigablast" would be another $27.
I’m paying 74.99/month for 100 mbps which I think is the most basic but it’s just fine for me and my wife.
It was for us in terms of total cost. Our cable bill had drifted over $300. We got rid of everything but internet and replaced it with YouTube TV for $53. Apples to apples is $315 v $137 (plus 1-time router purchase). Combine that with the $100/month I save since I switched to Amica and I got a nice raise this year.
Not in CT I assume?
