·Verizon FIOS

I have access to telco fiber and cable.

Where I live I have the choice between cablevision and verizon fios. I chose verizon fios because I wanted to try something new and because they had the better deal at the time. As soon as my contract expires I'm heading straight to their retention department and if they cant beat whatever deal cable has then i'm switching to cable. Once I've switched to cable and their deal is up, I'm doing the same thing and going back to telco fiber. It's win win for me.

This is the deal I got with verizon.

$200 gift card
Free showtime/encore/flix/TMC for almost a year
20/5 internet + cable tv + phone for $105 (they had a $95 package but i wanted faster internet)

What I hate about all these deals though is the fact that practically every triple play deal comes out to roughly $150 after you add in taxes, cable box fee, dvr box fee, and a premium or two but I did the math and find that it's the same everywhere.
