Comcast the Grinch is raising rates again.
I wish we would have more then 1 provider here in the bay.

After Comcast raised their rates one two many times, I dropped them a few years ago and moved to Dish Network. I've found Dish's service to be, not only significantly cheaper, but also significantly better. |

I switched to DirecTV a couple of years ago. The prices increases drove me crazy. I now get well over a 100 channels for cheaper than analog cable. |

Last month, we cut our service back to BASIC. Paying $12.xx/month. Don't even really need that as everything I watch gets downloaded over the net anyway.
