This isn’t typical, but I do love when I get trips like this. My commute is 55-60mph or lower with lots of stop lights. I’m learning to use the auto mode and regen braking. Sometimes the stars align and it works out just right.
I have a legacy triple-play plan with Verizon. I pay $175 a month for Fios with 1Gbps + TV (w/ ESPN) + voice. I don’t use any Verizon STBs and I don’t use their router. I use my own. I have a cable card, but it isn’t used. For TV, I use the apps on Apple TV that I have access to with the Fios subscription along with clear QAM plugged in via coax to my TV tuner. I also use Verizon as my mobile provider.
In my area, QAM is set to shut down on 11/5. I would like to keep the 1Gbps internet service and I’m fine moving to something like Ooma or Vonage to keep the existing home phone number (not ready to completely let go of that number yet). For TV, I’m leaning toward YouTube TV.
I’m trying to figure out the best way to get a good deal on 1Gbps service going forward and to plan the transition and porting of my home phone number so that I don’t lose it and that it doesn’t screw up my internet service when it is ported. I would like to save money overall compared to the $175 I am currently paying. That has crept up from the $109 I was paying for the same services as Verizon has tacked on fees and price increases over the years.
What have other legacy triple-play subscribers done?
Thanks!
