Re: not the same

For me, unbundled, Comcast was $56.95, and was limited to 4mb/384k. If I added limited basic for $10.50, I was paying $53.45 and getting 6mb/384k, plus TV. So yes, worse internet by itself costs more than cable TV + internet through Comcast.

I would agree...

Comcast HSI = $56.95 + fees
Comcast basic + HSI = $10.50 + $42.95 = $53.45

AT&T DSL = $49.95
AT&T POTS + DSL = $ $10.30 + $ 19.95 (standard monthly price) = $ 30.25

Comcast basic (not even available in my zip when Comcast was here !!!)

And all this is news because...? AT&T was doing this the last time this subject was brought up here. At which time I opined that they were doing it to keep it from being used by many customers untill the time came when they dont have to offer it any more, at which time it will simply disappear and AT&T will carry blythely on the way they want to.

Face it. No matter what, they are going to do what the hell they want and you end up screwed. It's as simple as that.

BUT what taxes and bogus fees do you have to pay when you get dry DSL? It might be cheaper to get dry DSL considering.

LIMITED basic cable is 14.95 here, not 10.50. 10.50 is a steal for limited basic.

Naked cable internet is also only 52.95 plus fees here, so:

hsi = 52.95 + fees
basic + hsi = 42.95 + 14.95 = 57.90 + fees
