Before I was with Comcast and I was down just about every other week at least once and then for hours at a time. Customer service sucked. Now with dish I like their customer service and service. Have not tried their internet but if it is like their satellite service it is top of the line. I always recommend Dish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-22608373990589426682015-02-20T13:00:42.282-05:002015-02-20T13:00:42.282-05:00Verizon Comcast Dish or Direct TV I've had the...Verizon Comcast Dish or Direct TV I've had them all and they're all the same.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-81322733287505387602015-02-20T12:41:00.214-05:002015-02-20T12:41:00.214-05:0011:39 From an I.T. person's perspective I sugg...11:39 From an I.T. person's perspective I suggest you never go with any satellite provider's internet service. <br /><br />No matter what they tell you its brutally slow and there are many things you cannot do on the internet due to such services. <br /><br />Satellite provided internet is only second to dial up for the worse possible way to get on the internet. <br /><br />This is not to be confused with cellular provided internet.

It's $50/mo. Make a record of that chat session. Call the next day and request to be switched to the $50 service. You will likely be told that the cheapest service is $60 like I was. Just tell them you have a transcript of your chat that offered a $50 plan. They will eventually agree to $50. Remember to cancel everything else from them. Now call Dish and ask for their cheapest TV only service. It will vary depending what extras you choose. The quality of their broad casts are notability better and their DVRS are generations ahead. Your bill should drop to about $150.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-49723603028601677932015-02-20T11:56:58.648-05:002015-02-20T11:56:58.648-05:00This is just flat out Bait and Switch which is aga...This is just flat out Bait and Switch which is against the law!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-19247686516749350832015-02-20T11:39:18.975-05:002015-02-20T11:39:18.975-05:00We dropped Comcast for services other than the int...We dropped Comcast for services other than the internet, when Direct TV gets that we will add that to our Direct TV service they are great.

The TV service is ok but the Internet drops all the time. Would only have Internet if they didn't force you into the triple play.<br />I like their new scam. $20 dollars if theyre late. I'm sure they just raised the service call fee, then they can show up whenever they want.<br />Still better off than the Pines. Media con is the WORST.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
