In my area they seem to have a habit of loosing their records of the modem sales. Later if/when you terminate your contract they demand you return the modem or pay for it again unless you provide proof that you already paid for it.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Qwest-My-bill-will-D-O-U-B-L-E-Nov-22-27753439 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 00:00:59 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Qwest-My-bill-will-D-O-U-B-L-E-Nov-22-27753345 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Qwest-My-bill-will-D-O-U-B-L-E-Nov-22-27753345 Thu, 22 Nov 2012 23:00:04 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Qwest-My-bill-will-D-O-U-B-L-E-Nov-22-27746006 --

I chatted online with Centurylink, and they say my bill will more than double from $62/month (what I expected). I must wait for Monday to talk to someone and negotiate, as chat can't help (sales). In the meantime, I'm looking for advice on getting an awesome value. I would do fine with less bandwidth. I occasionally download iso files from Microsoft, but it's never urgent. I do stream from Netflix and want enough bandwidth for that. I don't game much anymore. I don't watch much TV. Any I do is Netflix stream, or OTA (free). i.e. if I renegotiate package, or switch to cable, TV bundles are probably irrelevant. I'm a college student living off of savings and pricing is important. I think I've seen Comcast deals here in Minneapolis for $20/month internet. What might you do if you were me? Thanks in Advance. Below is what my bill looks like. Crap, I just noticed it says "11-18" is the date my rate changes. If I cancel, I think they'll only charge through last date of service (basically pro-rated), right?

Service Period: Oct 22 - Nov 21
