Goodbye...

For those who choose to keep it, or for whatever reason, have to. (like me)
Call them. Tell them you have an offer from their competitor, and you were wondering if there is anything they can do about the price.
I told them I had an offer from Dish for a $300 card (which I did) and other perks.

I just came off of a year of a $20 a month discount. When I called last week, I got a $35 a month discount, for a year.

I have heard it works both ways, for Dish or Directv.

I have Comcast Internet simply because it meets my needs.

Years ago I turned off the TV part after they couldn't give a rational answer to the question "why am i paying for commercials?".

Comcast has it made, they get money from advertisers and they get people to pay to watch advertising.

Last year Directv gave me a $50 per month discount. When it ended, I called, and they said no discounts were available and tried to upsell me on more subscriptions.
It might be time to call again.
This year they gave me NFL Sunday out of the blue, but this isn't much of a football season.

I find myself watching regular old TV more often. I like the Laff and AntennaTV channels with the old sitcoms.
