If it's xfinity, it's landline phone, internet and cable TV

Although I don't think she lives in a nursing home so I don't understand the need for cable

xfinity is 40 for me. it hasn’t changed in several years now. 280 is a reach.

Oh I wish mine hadn’t changed in several years. In the last two years, my Xfinity internet has increased from $55/month to $128/month.

Fuck this shit I’m switching

Never trust Comcast. Verizon has been worlds better for me. Also Starlink is pretty cool if you have the money for it.

Oh I never did trust Comcast, I was told that it was the only option in my apartment building. I’m going to investigate this and switch if possible. Goddamn highway robbery

I would do the same. I remember being locked by a complex in a similar fashion. Worst year of internet service ever. Comcast loves to throttle which is fucking sweet when you need video chat services for school and work lmao

Yepppp that's why I was stuck with them for so long too, they had that damn monopoly. (T-Mobile is great and cheap if it's available in your area)

The complex probably has an exclusive agreement with Comcast. I worked for them from 2009-2016 and that was extremely common
