Re: Restructure levels for channels wanted

I fully support this.  Right now I'm actually considering leaving AT&T for this reason.

There are three non-local channels that I regularly watch: TNT, USA, TBS.

With AT&T, all three of these are only offered at U-200+.  Besides that, all the rest of my programming can be found in U-Basic.  So I am paying $72, $53 more than U-Basic.  $53 for three channels?  I think not.

Now, Comcast offers all three of these in their Digital Starter package, which is $29.99 a month for the first twelve months, then it goes up to $49.99, which is still less than U-200.  Add in $16.95/month for DVR, and it's still cheaper.

2 years U-200: $1,728

2 years Xfinity Digital Starter: $1,366.56

Total 2 year savings: $361.44

 

Yes.  I think I'm about to switch.
