Seriously, you just gotta love em. I’ve had their FiOS service for over a year now, with speeds of 50mbit/s down and 5mbit/s up. This was all great and everything but I recently got a letter stating there would be a price increase this coming month of $5/month. So I was thinking maybe they had a better package as paying what would be $95 a month for internet was a bit much IMO.
I found out today that Verizon has introduced a new package in NY that sports a symmetrical down/up speed of 20 mbit/s for a very reasonable $65 a month. Granted I had to sacrifice a little on the download side, but with an upload that matched the download, I just couldn‘t resist it, and I saved money in the process!
So like I said, gotta love Verizon. They should officially call this Tier the “Cablevision Killer” on Long Island as cable will NEVER touch upload speeds like this.
