Re: Temporary Offer or High Price?
Cablevision (OV, iO and OOL) has a interesting twist on this, yes, the triple play is $99. But at the end of the offer, will give you a $25 credit towards your bill for the three services. In addition, the post-offer discount plan offers discounted movie and play tickets each week, and access to a discounted electronics store. CV owns movie theaters in the subscriber area and used to own a large electronics discounter, now gone bankrupt, but someone must still love to be in that business over there.
In my case, I was never allowed the triple play as I was an existing customer. I already had Internet and Cable service. I got a $5 discount for internet service. When I added the $35/mo phone service, I got an additional $20 discount and the movie ticket stuff. So, my phone service is only a $15 cash flow out, now instead of a $70 cash flow out.
It's not a bad thing....though I admit that with the level of cable service I have the monthly bill is $130....
