[quote=Diego Mamani]I have FiOS from Verizon. It runs about $170 for Internet, TV (no premiums), and phone (local only). It’s hard to dhop for these things b/c prices quoted don’t include the many taxes and fees that are added to the price. E.g., my “local” phone service was supposed to be $17, but then there is a $7 government charge, other fees, taxes, etc., so I pay about $30 for phone alone.
In my prior house I had DirecTV ($55), Time Warner Cable ($45), and Verizon phone ($35), TOTAL: $135. With FiOS I get better/faster Internet service, and better TV picture with on-demand features, but I’m not sure the extra $35 a month ($135 before vs. $170 now) is justified.[/quote]
You pay $30 for local phone alone? Wow, you should definitely check out Vonage. I’m paying ~$22/month after all taxes and fees. I get free national calls and $0.01/minutes to a lot of international calls.
