Re: Phone/TV/Internet service in Springfield, MO

Supposedly AT&T U-Verse is, or soon will be, available in Springfield.

I guess what you are saying is Mediacom is selling your information to marketers?

Another option would be to cancel their (Mediacom) phone service and sign up with a VoIP provider.

That is correct.

That's where I start to run into problems:
1. Internet speeds get cut to 8Mbps down. 8Mbps isn't bad but since I'm settling for slower speeds why not just switch to AT&T and go with 6Mbps?
2. Price goes way up. They quoted me around $80/mo if I decided to drop everything but HSI.

Now I think that would work for me. My in-laws have U-Verse in San Diego and my mother-in-law seems to be very impressed with it.
