Internet plan and price?

[pparks1]

Was just wondering what the range of services and prices were for our members.

I have a 15/1 package from my provider and it costs me about $50 a month. It's hard to tell exactly what it costs as it's a bundle with my TV and phone, My inet plan by itself is $59.99.

 

[Max Peck]

My Road Runner Internet is a flat $50/month. I don't use any of the other cable services any more.

I use Cox and pay about 140 a month for a bundle:

Telephone land line with pretty basic features

Cable TV with maybe 40 channels; no HBO, Showtime, etc

High Speed Internet "Preferred" package supposedly capped at 200 GB per month, which I never hit.

The Internet Package alone would be $50 per month if unbundled.

Well, I'm with BT (UK) and have a phone/broadband bundle with Unlimited Broadband and Calls for about £35 (US$58) a month excluding line rental. It's an ADSL2+ line, and as I live less than 200m away from the exchange, I get 20Mb/s down and 1.3Mb/s up.

I have a complete bundle with Sky Satellite TV for £87 per month.

This includes numerous HD film, sport, news, documentary, music and entertainment channels, unlimited broadband, unlimited telephone calls (including 20 free international numbers) and telephone line rental.

The cost breakdown is as follows:

Satellite TV £62
Broadband £7.50
Telephone calls £5
Telephone line rental £12.50

Current exchange rate is £1 = $1.58

I use Cox & bundle $50.99 a month and have the Preferred package they say up to 15 Mbps down & 2 Mbps up but I get 22 down 6 up on the desktop, wireless I get 18 down 5 up.

I have this below with a 50GB download/upload cap per month for $46.65 a month. Not to bad.

Well like Martin I'm with BT (UK) and I have a package and my bill is less than £35 a month, it depends if I've made any help line calls that are chargeable.

Line Rental = £13.90

Broadband Option 3 £20, I get an £8 discount for it and as well as being Unlimited Broadband I get Unlimited Anytime phone calls. I also get a Paper Free discount of £3.75.

So my bill this month is £31.54 because I made some calls that were chargeable.

Unlike Martin my line is only ADSL and I'm 1.37 km from the exchange but can only get usually 3 to 4 MB speed but as it's advertised as up to 8 MB there's nothing I can do.

I could maybe get a package with my Sky but as they don't have their own lines around here they'd have to rent the line from BT to sell to me or I'd have to keep the line rental with BT and get everything else from Sky.

joan, just check samknows see if any updates due in ur area, plenty of choices usually.

 

[fseal]

Cox, $39.95 or thereabouts, maybe a tad more.

Getting about 18Mbps down and 6 Mbps up from what I last remember.

Since I live at two places:
100/100mbit for 30Euro/month
24/1mbit for the same price

 

[Dinesh]

My internet plan is $6 (INR 300) for 15GB.
Besides, I have 2 PrePay mobile phones which I top up of about 500 Indian Rupees every month.

15GB of what? 15GB/s downstream rate?

LOL. 15GB download cap with 4MBPS speed.

Yeah, I would have moved to India if you had 15GB/s =D

 

[Lebon14]

Canadian broadband socks as some of you might know.
30Mbits down, 2Mbits up. 120GB bandwith cap/month (Download+upload) (i.e. NOT unlimited - after 120GB, it's 1.50$ per extra GB, no limit of extra billing).

All that for 75$, taxes included.

The last I looked there are no plans at present, I live in a coastal rural area and we've only had broadband at all the last few years and the local exchange is totally BT so even if I went with someone else they'd have to rent the service from BT to sell it to me so at least if I'm with BT to start with it's quicker and easier to get things fixed if they go wrong.

There's no chance of fibre coming our way in the foreseeable future, blimey we can't even get natural gas piped to us.

Similar problem here.
One company.
No wireless.
No cell phone service.

$50/mo. for phone line ADSL 3 Meg as they call it. Which actual testing is avg. 2.67Mbs down and 0.67Mbs up.

$75/mo. for 5 Meg.

All they had the first two years was 56K dial up (50.6K actual)- $30.

Then add $45 for basic phone with that per month.

$95 with taxes and no long distance calls- those are extra.

Being in the country every call is long distance except my brother in law.

I have the Verizon DSL package, 7 mbps down, 3.1 mbps up. The package price includes unlimited phone calls in the USA. $79.95 per month, I think the net fee is $45 or close to that. Unlimited access with no caps....so far (knock on wood)

Hi Dinesh,

Which is your ISP??I have MTNL connection and pay around 12 $ (around 649 INR) but my speed is really bad close to 0.6 Mb/s though its unlimited download and upload.
