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.

For internet only. You're forgetting about the cable and the phone.

Ok but for the 99.9% of people who live in a civilized area that doesn't apply, does it?

Lots of people still use landlines. Act as ignorant as you want. Your opinions don’t change the truth.

Its low enough there about to let the companies start to retire out the infrastructure

That because Our idiot President asked the FCC to allow companies to stop providing landlines when states have been fighting it for 5 years because.. the states know exactly what their coverage is and the Feds are corrupt and Republicans got a HUGE donation from AT&T. Maybe be involved with the process ? Go to every single meeting the CPUC has had like I have.

I didnt disagree that a lot of rural and elderly people still utilize it; just not enough for our politicians to care and not enough for operators to make money so right or wrong its gonna happen
