| SBC not worth it . I was actually considering giving DSL a try,especially with the 14.95/mo. deal right now.
So first, I called the current accounts line and asked,what the monthly charges will be after the year promo is over.
The sales gal said,$39.99 THEREAFTER.
Then I called new accounts and asked them a,what the monthly charges would be after the year was up. He replied, anywhere between 14.95 and 19.95. He said he couldn't see why SBC would raise the rates that much and make alot of customers mad. I said, its called fishing. Their just using 14.95 bait. I asked him to send me a written gaurantee that it would not be more than 19.95 after the first year was up. He couldn't give me a gaurantee.
My reply was,so you hook people like a fish with the 14.95 deal for a year, then you raise the charges over double?
I asked if there was a trial period. She replied, No.
I asked her if there was a early termination fee. She replied,Yes.
I asked her,what if I move and DSL is not offered at my new address?
She replied,you will still be responsible for the full year charges, even if you can't use service.
I asked her,do I have to be a SBC land line customer to use SBC DSL? She replied, Yes.
Well folks, all in all:
1.Comcast is offering first 3 months at $19.99.
2.$42.95 thereafter w/your own modem.
3.You don't have to be a TV customer to get braodband.
4.No year contract.
5.No termination fee.
6.Fastest connections,
4.2-5.8Mps.depending on time of day.
7.You don't have to change your land line provider.
8.If you move your much more likely able to use Broadband
anywhere cable is.
Probably many more reasons why comcast is better but, you get the picture.

| I'm perfectly happy with SBC DSL internet, I had a choose of Comcast, or SBC when I moved here, and so far dsl seems alot better, especially with price point, and also bundled sbc landline and dish network service, 4 tvs with satellite on them, and dvr supplying 2 tv's, all for one price, and one bill. But if DSL price ever goes too high or dish network, we may consider Comcast again possibly. | |
