Its funny how they'll treat you like they don't need customers... When we moved
here I'd had Comcast for my cable modem but no internet in the apartment
before. For the house they wanted $200 to flip a switch to enable the cable
modem. No house visit required.
Verizon GAVE me a DSL modem and enabled the service for free. I asked Comcast
to wave their fee which is still a good deal for them as they were $10/mo more
expensive. They wouldn't budge. I said "I'm going to go with Verizon" to which
they replied "You do what you've got to do". So I did and I've been very happy.

Right now I can get all of their digital and HD channels (we've never had the
"premium channels) with phone and 35Mbps Internet including a whole-house DVR
and a total of six (6) TV boxes, three which are full-blown boxes with
everything, three that work with the whole house DVR and have all of the cable
channels (no PPV or interactive menuing) for $127.00/month.
That's with a two year commitment and lifetime whole house DVR.
I'm paying $120/month for two boxes, a "regular" DVR, phone and 15Mbps internet
with Brighthouse.
I would prefer to go with FIOS, myself, but mainly due to the internet speed. I
had this at the inlaws, and it screamed compared to BH.
FWIW, I called BH the other day to see if they would come to the table and just
give me the next tier of Internet speed (25Mbps) to keep me as a customer, and
they blew me off.
