promotions ended, bill going from 200/month to 400/month. for folks without FIOS, what are good alternatives to cut the cord with this horrible company?
10 year customer, I always paid 200 a month for phone/net/tv. every so often I would need to call retention for new promos to keep my price stable and they've generally been great. last few months though, not so much.
final straw here are big promos ending this month which will cause my bill to double. the rep I spoke to, who was really nice, gave me some credits for this bill and the next, basically buying time until mid April when HOPEFULLY new promos come out.
I'm in Town of Brookhaven (Long Island) where optimum has a monopoly, thanks to our corrupt politicians.
anyone have recommendations? we do need internet as I work from home, both my son and I are avid gamers and my wife is a big tv watching person. for me, I mainly only watch sports like baseball and football.
