They just announced they'll offer a free trial period for every home.
- zwily 14y ago... a trial period of 7 years.
- Klinky 14y agoIt's Google Fiber Beta™.
- missing_cipher 14y agoWasn't this announce from the very beginning? A bit slower(100Mb?) with a one-time installation fee(~700USD I think) that could be financed.
- austenallred 14y agoFree Internet at 5 mb up/down for a $300 installation fee.
- mrtimo 14y agoyou mean $30 fee _for a $30 activation fee (plus applicable taxes) and no monthly charge for at least 7 years_
- X-Istence 14y agoFrom the linked site: Up to 5Mbps download, 1Mbps upload speed • No data caps • Free service guaranteed for at least 7 years • Includes Network Box $300 construction fee (one time or 12 monthly payments of $25) + taxes and fees
- calebegg 14y agoDon't see that on the linked page; you might be looking at the info for Topeka, where they don't already have the fiber laid. Your parent is talking about the provo specific page that the article actually links to, where it very clearly says that it's a $30 activation fee for homes already on iProvo.
- joshdance 14y ago$300 in Kansas, $30 in Provo. Existing network might make it cheaper.
- aray 14y agoNot sure, but given the wording it might just be $300 as well for homes in provo that aren't on the existing fiber network (like it would be to thread up a new home in Kansas City). Totally guesswork though; could be more or less as well.
- ryankshaw 14y agofrom the article: "we’d offer our Free Internet service (5 Mbps speeds) to every home along the existing Provo network, for a $30 activation fee and no monthly charge for at least seven years"
- marcamillion 14y agoHoly crap....that's kinda insane! I thought the 7 year figure was a joke.
