Re: [AZ] Price Increases, No Speed increase mentioned. I have an older modem. There won't be any speed boost. And with the ever rising cost if it wasn't such a ripoff to drop a tier, we'd drop to Essential in a heart beat. But $15 drop from $56 to $42 causing a "rated" speed drop from 18 to 3 is a ripoff. If it was at least 10Mb, we'd do it.
When we signed up with cox, it was $45 for Preferred. Soon will be time to drop cox phone and switch to something like magic jack to get the cost back down. |

| Google voice doesn't cost anything. Yes you can port your number, I think it is a one time $10 fee or something like that. And if you're with cox, your phone costs you $20 a month after taxes, fees, etc. Only thing is with google voice you don't get 911, but I only have a fax machine connected to it so nobody would pick it up and try to dial 911 with it (cell phones do that job better anyways.)
Anyways, I just realized the 3mbit tier is $42 a month! Holy ripoff batman. I hope a new ISP comes around when my $32 a month premier deal runs out next year. |

TV is stupid for what you pay for it, especially given that you have to pay to get commercials. I'm glad I don't really watch it any more. |

 | Yeah I've heard of nickel and diming one to death...but pennying one to death, that's a new one. And only from Cox, your friend in the digital age! |

 Rob_Premium join:2008-07-16 Mary Esther, FL | Windstream isn't available here.
Besides, $12.00 a month is cheaper then what Cox or any one can provide
