I started this poll just too see how fast everyone's connection was and see how much it is. I have a cable connection in a semi-big town (~20,000 people) and a 512kbs/128kbs connection costs me $44.95 a month...that seems a little high...

Hey jihiggs, how long did you have their internet service at the time you called? I want to call as well, but whether they lower down the price or not should depend on how long you've been with them. Also, how much did you pay for cable tv before they lowered it?

Thanks

lets see, i had an introductory offer for 3 months, that was about what i pay now. then it went up to 116 for 2 months, then i called and they lowered it to 60. i think i was paying 45 for internet alone when the total bill was 116. the cable tv i have now is digital without the 100+ channels. if any one has their service, dont pay for the extra channels if you dont want them, its way cheaper to just keep the digital box, you still get on demand, the music channels and access to payperview. they took a while before they would give that dirty secret up.
