Title: Bundling cable, internet and phone
Post by: sommap on April 21, 2011, 08:00:12 am
Has anybody done it.  I called the cable company last week because my bill had gotten too large for cable t.v. and internet service.  By adding my phone to the service, I ended up saving about $100 a month.  I hope I am happy with the change of phone.  I even got free long distance - local and international.  There is a chance one of my daughters may go to a foreign country for three months, for work, so the international would sure be handy.

This deal just not for me as I don't watch tv and i use cell phone, no more landline.
Since I am far away from home, I actually call my friends and family overseas by using skype. It's free. Might be a good idea to check it out!!
All I did was buying a wireless skype phone so I can talk to my family even when their computers aren't online. No more international phone bills for me.

Budling can be a good move and save you some money, however, please watch out for your providor steadily increasing your cost before your present agrred rate is set to go up.

I bundled mine with Comcast a little over a year ago.  I don't make many long distance calls but the quality of the phone service is great and I got to keep mine own number.  I think I saved about $25 or $30 per month by doing it and I only get one bill, which is nice.    :wave: :wave:

 I had my tv and internet with a cable company and land line phone.  I was costing me a little over $200 a month.  Then I got a letter from the cable company with a deal to have phone with them.  I took their deal and now save over $80 a month and have free long distance service too.  I have been very happy.  Always looking for ways to save money in this day and time.

I have TV Internet and Phone Bundled. It does save me quite a bit each month compared to having them seperate.
