Leaving after 5 years

So after 5 years I finally ended up leaving speakeasy. I posted here about a month ago saying I was going to leave and a rep called me and I decided I was going to say. But after thinking more about it I have to leave due to the money. I love speakeasy But i can not see my self paying 180 bucks anymore. I ended up going to fios for the 30/5 package..
Hope I can come back in the future

AS one who is strongly considering dropping my 5 year commitment to SE in favor of FIOS, may I ask what Big Problems you're having with FIOS?

well before I get into my problems with Fios Let me tell u why I left speakeasy.

Speakeasy was nothing but great to me in every possible way. never had any problems with them at all. The only reason I am leaving right now is money. I Cant afford the service anymore. If it wasn't for that I would still be with speakeasy. Now on to fios. The biggest problem I have is there router/modem. You have to use it. Either u have to use it or u can run a cat 5 cable from your router to the box outside. If you plan on geting fios tv then you have no choice. No static IP. I already have some issues with bit torrent. of course those are little things and I have found ways around them if you read the fios forum.
If you have the money and want to stay with speakeasy try the adsl2 service

You can get Static IP and Fios TV and use whatever router you want. You just need a 2nd ont to get a business account and Fios TV at the same time.

I wouldn't pay $190 a month for 15/1 from speakeasy when I have a business account with Verizon for 35/10 for $184 a month.

Who would when you could have this for less?

Yea thats the thing speed and money. Hopefully the day will come where speakeasy will be up there with the speed and have it affordable

That $184/month, how much of that is the service cost and how much of that is taxes/fees? (if you don't mind me asking).
While I'd rather not have a second ONT on my house, it may be worth it if I can get the lowest-tier Business account for the same price (or less) as I'm paying for 6/768 with SE.
