The reason I went with them, is their bundled price
what is the breakdown in pricing for you? or just the total so we can examine the cost.

TV price = ?
Internet = ?
Phone = ?
TOTAL = ?

Cable has done a good job of making it seem like people save money by getting their phone service. I have relatives that dropped Verizon to get the "deal" from the cable company that is about as much or even more per month. The illusion of savings is what got them.

The total that I pay Comcast is $182/month including all taxes and junk fees. I get all movie channels, an HD DVR, another digital converter an upgraded 8mb/750KB Internet package (this they never really delivered on as they don't seem to be able to hit the telephony/cable modem box with the right codes), and a sports package and the unlimited LD telephone service that works like a champ. I know I am saving a large amount of money because before I bundled the services I was paying about $162.00 plus about 50 bucks for a Verizon line that didn't have unlimited long distance. Not only do I save about $30/month but I get the large number of movie channels that were added, a sports package, and if I am willing to have a heart attack fighting for it, upgraded Internet speed . I'd say the value of the added services is well over 50 bucks, so some people could say I am saving $80/month, but I just look at it as $30/month saved because that is how much less I am paying per month.

FIOS is becoming available in my area, but not in my neighborhood yet. The deals they have, offer similar savings. I am perfectly happy with Comcast for once in my life and will stick with them until Verizon gets their act together with regard to On-Demand and on-the-air HD programming. My only complaint with Comcast is with their DVRs. Verizon's isn't much better.
