Cablevision....Fios isn't available in my area, and its the cheapest of all the other choices.

$99 for cable (All channels except Cinemax and showtime), internet and unlimited long distance phone. (Normally $125, $25 is discounted when you sign up for Optimum Rewards online.)

eta: We rent, so we can't do the dish thing.

We have DirecTV for one reason and one reason only...The Sunday Ticket (DH is a Chicago Bears and fan and overall crazy football fan)

we even cut trees down at our new house just so we could get it.Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: we had FIOS for TV when we first moved in an couldn't get DirectTV, LOOOOVED it...but then we switched back...now we have the FIOS internet, wireless and awesome as well.

Cablevison here also, Fios coming but I have no idea when.

DirecTV is launching a lot of new HD channels this month and I wouldn't mind switching to them but they won't allow us to have a dish here in this complex.

We have Fios tv. I love it...DH loves the NFL Network and the only other thing that has it is Directv which we cant get here anyway unless we want to put up a pole in the front yard to attach the dish to.


When I go back to work I can check to see where Fios TV is coming next...

We have Cablevision and as soon as Verizon FiOs come here we are switching. My $200+ a month bills MUST stop.

200 a month, you must have some add-ons to get that high? Verizon (besides the intro) as pretty much the same in priceing with the differences coming with what channels are offered

Big changes are happening now with DirecTV. All new dish and receivers with the launch of the 100 new HD channels. So now it would be a good time to call and ask for the upgrade.
