correct? I pay $165 for the NYC 150/35 Internet, Ultimate HD, & Phone bundle. I pay an additional $85 for Quantum TV Premium with 2 VMS1100 boxes and 5 IPC1100 boxes. I also pay taxes and fees based on the total amount due, which depends on how many VOD titles we order. |

I'm too scared to attempt to disconnect, then actually getting disconnected and not getting cheaper rate offer. This is how much I've been paying for Ultimate TV, 150/35 Internet, & Phone, since 12/2011. did your bill went up 5 dollar? It's now 169.99 |

Here's the triple play deal I currently have:
$129.99 Ultimate (Cinemax, Showtime, and NFL Redzone) Freedom Essentials Landline 50/50 Internet
Without the discounts it is around ~ $144.99. No STBs or taxes incl. in this price
With taxes, equipment charges (two HD STBs, whole-home DVR), RTP and Globo TV (the Portuguese and Brazilian international channels), as well as 300 international minutes for Freedom Essentials...the monthly total is around $240-$245
Sadly I live with family who *need* their international channels. Otherwise, I would have gone w/internet only, 500/500. Maybe one day... |

said by flipmeister:I went with a double play of 75/35 internet and Prime TV plus 1 year of HBO for $64.99 with a new 2 year contract since the only people who call my land line are telemarkets and collection agencies looking for people who used to have my number. How did you get such an amazing deal? Did they call you and offer you those deals after you scheduled for discount or what? How did you receive the deal? Thanks |

My wife's 2 yr contract expired today and the triple bundle we had previously was $119.99 which inlcuded a $25 monthly discount => Unlimited digital voice; Extreme with free showtime/HBO, 75/35 internet.
I called today and the initial rep offered me the same exact deal for $124.99 for a 2 year contract. I told her "I can disconnect the service under my wife's name and reapply using my name and get the 3 options out there now for new customers. Why don't we cut through the BS and give me what I can get as a new customer?" The rep told me I can certainly do that but she can't help me. I said "ok, I want to disconnect , please transfer me".
The rep transfers me to the "disconnect" department and they offered me what new customers can currently get (I priced out what one of my non-verizon FIOS neighbors would get if they were to request FIOS today):
Option 1) $124.99 2 yr agreement: FIOS Extreme with free HBO/Showtime; Unlimited Digital Voice; 75/75 internet; Free Quantum TV Enhanced (can DVR up to 6 programs at 1 time)
Option 2) $124.99 2 yr agreement: FIOS Extreme with free HBO/Showtime; Unlimited Digital Voice; 75/75 internet; $250 prepaid VISA gift card
Option 3) $124.99 No annual contract: FIOS Extreme with free HBO/Showtime; Unlimited Digital Voice; 75/75 internet
I went with option 1. Even though they have to charge me the extra $4.99 wireless router fee, which I wasn't charged before, it's well worth it because my 3 set top box cost previously was $33/mth. With this new deal it went down to $23.97/mth. |

This is the bill estimate (I also get $10/mth discount from work so net net, I'll be paying ~ $160.70 per month) NOTE: there's also a $69.99 activtation fee which isn't included in this estimate. It works out to $2.91/mth over the life of the contract so I didn't see it as a big deal:
