tags: prices · cable Stories continue to pile up from non-cable TV customers angry that their monthly Comcast broadband fee jumped from $46 a month to $60, while Comcast continues to tell customers they're being rewarded for loyalty (or a lack thereof). The story doesn't change, even though the news outlets running them are all different.
Users complain that Comcast's decision to
raise rates for those who don't sign up for television service is a
slap in the face. Comcast continues to argue that the bundle discount is their special way of saying 'thank you'.
"We're rewarding people who take more services from us, says one spokesman in this latest '
complaint story'.
"Just like other companies. It's a tried-and-true concept."
