What happens to existing customers?

FU?

This is no deal really. 7 megs at $30, then it jumps to $40.

It's a lot faster than my DSL for a lot less(their 1.5 meg). Depends on what you need. JMT

Re: What happens to existing customers?

17 bucks for 1.5 K down is a pretty good deal for basic users. All I do is general surfing, a little Break.Youtube and the occasional song download.

Would be a good deal for me, but I'm not in Cox territory

7 for $40 is pretty mainstream. But how many cableco's have a $10 or $20 tier at all. As far as I know Comcast is not one of them. I think knology has something around 256k that was targeted at dialup migration.

Re: What happens to existing customers?

Comcast does offer an "Economy" 384kbps/384kbps tier in many markets for $30-$40 but it isn't advertised -- it's used only as a retention tool.....

WHY is this even making the front page?
intro rates that go up after a few months are nothing new.
doing nothing for existing subs(nothing new here either)
the $9.99 offer used to be for 6 months, i've noticed their newer ads have dropped the intro to 3 months.
Cox wheres YOUR "Price for life"?

I got excited and thought i'd have to eat crow when i saw this on the front page. guess i can confidently say "Cable bills do NOT go down unless you drop to lesser levels of service"

Still Better With Qwest

I've got 7/896 for $34.95 "price for life". 7/512 from Cox would be 44.95 after the three month promo AND I would have to suffer through their blocked ports and potential data caps.

What do you mean potential data caps? you would have 40gb/mo down and 10gb/mo up caps.

Cox sends that to me all the time

I get MAIL from Cox all the time in Omaha for $10/mo for 2 years IF i have their phone service.

Their system is confused, I switched to Business and it thinks I just left them for Qwest I assume.

Wonder what this will do for the bundle packages....

I currently have Phone, Cable and Internet through them for a bundel price. Even at $40 a month after the promotional price for the 7MB tier, that is still $10 cheaper than what I pay for it bundled. um...time to call Customer service.

In Vegas 1.5MB is over $40 from Cox

All I want is internet and nothing else so my bill is over $40 a month for a 1.5MB connection. Cox tacks on $10 if you don't want cable.

Re: In Vegas 1.5MB is over $40 from Cox

Maybe the pricing structure in Vegas is different. I'm paying 44.95 for the 7/512 service in Phoenix. And that has been the same price since they did away with charging extra for non video subscribers. Plus they are throwing in bare bones video service as well. Its only the locals plus TBS & WGN. But thats all I need.

they charge so much for soo less. it's ripoff what they charge down here and it's a joke people in the south are willing to pay for it and allow this to happen.
