I have 6 mbps for $51/mo with AT&T. I quoted them 50 mbps for the same price with a local cable company.
I wanted higher speeds. They couldn't get me close to the other deal, so I told them they had to compete on price. They offered $35 with a year contract.
I told them I was going to get service with the cable company and call back to cancel and they dropped my price to %50 off for six months with no strings attached.
So shop around and call them and negotiate.
- pixl97 13y agoSame goes for business owners too. We had a 20Mbit fiber from our cable company where the multi year contract was expiring. We contacted a bandwidth broker to find us a better deal. He came back with a much better deal on fiber from the local telco. We submitted the telco contract to the cable company and they price matched us. We went from 20Mbit to 50Mbit and dropped the price by half. The broker cost somewhere around $300, and was the best money we ever spent.
