The Comcast Cable Internet saga continues. First I tried to take advantage of a free 50% speed upgrade and found out I had to buy a new modem. Then I realized I was actually getting an upgrade that more than doubled my download transfer speed for the same price.
Now I’ve received the bill. I expected they’d screw something up, and they didn’t let me down. I’m actually being charged $16 less for internet access now ($30 rather than $46). Combined with my $16 basic cable, I’m saving a good amount of money compared to when I was paying $46 for internet and $70 for television.
Thank you, Comcast!

Flexo,
Congratulations on your windfall.
I’m waiting to have Adelphia install a new line. They said Saturday between 9-11 am.
It’s almost 5 pm and I’m STILL waiting!
What classic cabel man misery.
At least they paid you for your suffering!!
Enjoy.
