I hate cable service providers.

that's what they do. I called them once to complain about my package (when I signed on, I was quoted $129 for all 3, internet, basic digital cable and phone, and when I got the bill it was closer to $150*. They neglected to say there were taxes and other stuff tagged on. Learn from me, ALWAYS ask what it will cost INCLUDING TAX AND FEES, because it can make a difference. In California our taxes are close to 10%)

Anyway, I called them to complain and they just threw a couple more channels in the package to calm me down. I don't even know which one to be honest.

I like having access to some TV but I'm not willing to spend a lot of money to watch average programming. I have Netflix for movies anyway, and get my news off the Internet.

Out here AT&T offers u-verse, seems pretty decent, but I hate having to deal with AT&T again.

Not to thread jack or anything but what do you guys have, and how much do you all pay for Internet, Phone, and TV? Oh and where are you located?


* that's an introductory price. Will go through the roof when my trial period is over.
