e.g. broadband label says $30 fee for self-install?
Which I don't understand as they don't do jack in terms of setting anything up at your address, and it was like 5 minutes of work on their end to set up your Internet service in store.
Guy (from lead finder company) came to door offering fiber 500 Mbs for $29 / for 24 months.
Since I was being bent over by frontier at 50 Mbs for $65, 10x for 1/2 price was a no brainer.
Had issue because coax to house was disconnected at box down the block.
Rescue installer they sent out, said there isn't fiber within 10 miles of my house. He said fiber is only going in to new areas being built out. Also worth noting, bill came in and said if free 12 month phone is not accepted within 30 days, the router will no longer be free, and billed at $7 a month. On the plus side, the speed is running about 575 Mbs & 21 Mbs up wireless to my laptop.
I got $29.99 (price locked for 24 mths & no contract), no install fee, free unlimited mobile for 12 mths, free router (for 12 mths)
The bit about having to accept phone service in 30 days or pay $7 mth for router was on printed bill they mailed me after install.
In the case of my offer, they don't what phone care as long as the phone is compatible.
If you have an old phone laying around use that IMEI, they should then give you a phone number.
Just dump it in 12 months, and buy a router. I grabbed the $20 router from woot and will send back spectrum's when I install that.
Or the $15 wifi 6 router at woot right now (see frontpage deal).
I'd cancel couple of week before the cycle ends, then sign up via online a few days before cycle ends. Make sure to choose new customer after you enter your address, that's all it takes. Old account will automatically end and new will begin 7 days after you receive your new modem or earlier if you choose to activate early.
I am on the 29.99 plan 300mbs and 2 year locked price is expiring in September, so i will be doing this next month again
Can I still do what you're saying or will the mobile service be messed with?
* I can never understand spectrums freakin bill! One month it's $85- $20 promo- $5 the next month it's $65 - $15 promo etc.
The base price and promo deduction changes every freaking month!
My previous Spectrum service, as I understand it, was 300MB...I had been getting the $30(?) gov. subsidy until congress decided not to fund it recently. As such my internet was raised from $49.99 to $79.99 this month, plus the new $3 increase from Spectrum...so $82.99.
I have a few wyze cams along with my phone, computers, echo dot..etc.
The day before the "downgrade" of my internet service I did one of those online speed-tests and it showed around 115 to 120 download/10 upload. After downgrade from 300mb to 100mb I did same speed-test(s) which showed....115 to 120 download.
Everything seems to work as before...perhaps it was my older equipment on the 300mb service, I don't know. The modem had been upgraded a few years back(from spectrum), while my router was the old T-mobile slickdeal from a few years ago...which, while required a few power restarts occasionally due to drops, had been fairly rock-solid. I was not having streaming/other issues so I simply didn't notice the lower download speed than I should have been getting.
That's about it. So basically I am supposed to be getting 100mb for $19.99 a month for 1 year, then $29.99 the second year(OP deal, $29.99 locked in for 2 years)

I did select the insurance for $5 a month which is worth it for me as I just got a new Pixel and it covers a screen repair for $29, just in case. So I'll be paying $25 a month for home Internet, cell phone plan, and phone insurance. Worth it for me.
I'll probably port my cell phone out somewhere cheaper after 12 months but keep the $30 home Internet. 100mbps is more than people realize and it's unlikely a regular family will cap that. People just get upsold on the gigabit for profits.
