Re: [Other] Patmedia Digital phone
I must say I'm very surprised by the price points and the Int'l Rates when compared to alternatives. Even the use of the "Triple Play" language is a surprise on their website »www.patmedia.net/patriot/Digital···eet.html - that's Cablevision's branding.
Keep in mind that Patmedia's marketing folks are vets of other cable co's (primarily comcast)... so they've been around a while.
Not sure who the underlying vendor partner ended up being, so I won't comment on the technical side of the setup til I hear more. (Although anything is better than Net2Phone, which is where the discussions started when I was there)
With FIOS going full speed ahead, this product may prove to be a tough sell to Patmedia's customers who are looking for the best deal.
I'm hopeful that the Patmedia sales force will be offering some type of contractual discount for customers who are willing to sign up for a longer term deal.
Looking forward to seeing the first review from someone who tries out the service...

I'd say their pricing is almost 50% more compared to Cablevision's Triple Play, at least for the standard digital deal.
I'm not so sure I'd classify this as much of a deal. Sure, it's conveniently on one bill ... not seeing much savings though.

Mine Hill, NJ | those prices are pretty much the same as cvc and twc's non discounted standard prices. problem is on their commercials cvc never really states what the price will be after the one year intro is over. |
