They probably should advertise. I've had Comcast for almost 5 years and their service (less customer support, which sucks) has been good. It's been getting a bit expensive tho. I've got a FIOS junction box right in front of my house, but I haven't seen a reason to switch yet.
Yes, FIOS is faster, but I don't really need that (be nice tho). The cost difference comes down to a few bucks for both Internet and TV. If FIOS had a real cost advantage I'd switch in a heartbeat.
I also have access to Broadstripe Cable (old Millennium cable), but their prices are about the same and they have a terrible reputation for service.
Give me good service at a lower rate and I'm yours! |

| Do they? I've had nothing but major headaches with billing and getting my internet service to work, and after spending a week in FL with family who have FIOS TV (Sarasota), I have to say that my DirecTV looks better. I will admit that I only have a 720p television and was watching standard def on a 1080p. -- Retaking our country one election at a time. |
