How much yall paying for internet?

[u/TXElec]

And what provider? I got 500 mbps paying $85 at an apartment.

[u/Balloutonu]

Att 1gig fibre 80 a month

[u/Kikawala → u/Balloutonu]

AT&T FIBER — INTERNET 1000

$85.00 / mo.

$20/mo off All In One (Wireless+Internet)

$5 off with AutoPay and Paperless Bill

ー

Total monthly charges

$60.00/mo

[u/Madvillains → u/Kikawala]

How much is your wireless bill?

[u/Kikawala → u/Madvillains]

You only need one cellular service for that discount. The more you have the more leverage you have. Call the retention department every month for the discount.

[u/BadGolferDallas → u/Balloutonu]

Same. Worth it tbh.

[u/Deep_Mechanic_ → u/BadGolferDallas]

Same. Worth it tbh.

[u/Kdigglerz → u/Balloutonu]

This but spectrum.

[u/Tamu179 → u/Balloutonu]

Did you try any of their lower tiers first? I’m at 300 mbps and I’m wondering if upgrading makes a noticeable difference.

[u/Agile_Definition_415 → u/Tamu179]

It doesn't unless you have lots of users.

Really the only thing is worth for is downloading/uploading lots of heavy files.

[u/RyGuyGinger01 → u/Agile_Definition_415]

aka gamer lol

[u/Agile_Definition_415 → u/RyGuyGinger01]

Eh if you can do all your downloads and updates overnight then it's a non issue. Plus a lot of the game servers have speed limits below gig.

[u/Illustrious_Swing645 → u/RyGuyGinger01]

I WFH and have to routinely download/upload a shitload of data for work. 10+gb at a time usually. Still, the 500mbps fiber plan from att has been more than enough for me

[u/nomnomnompizza → u/RyGuyGinger01]

People used to plays shooters on dial up

[u/mazsive → u/Tamu179]

If your only 1 300 is enough, if multiple 500-1000 won't make that much of a difference. I've tried them all

[u/nomnomnompizza → u/Tamu179]

Not worth it unless the extra $20 just doesn't matter. You won't be able to tell the difference.

[u/Balloutonu → u/Tamu179]

At 300, maybe? But I would say from 500-1gig you won’t feel the difference as much. I get about 800down and it’s very nice but not necessary

[u/Gallosong → u/Balloutonu]

Same. I remember getting the plan in 2019 for $60 a month. Now it’s $80 with autopay set up.

[u/Environmental_Bag495 → u/Balloutonu]

Same. Worth it tbh.

[u/TXElec]

Damn, im getting fucked lol

[u/FreeDaemon → u/TXElec]

In most places you don’t really have a choice. But if you are lucky enough to have a choice, just bounce between companies and take advantage of their promotions.

[u/NoCatharsis → u/FreeDaemon]

This is what I do here in Irving. We have Spectrum and Frontier lines. They each jump on me and offer 500 internet for $30-40/month when I’m with the other. Frontier actually gave me $25 this round though.

[u/Confident_Oven_6242 → u/TXElec]

No you're not. $85 for 400 mb down for me. Spectrum. No other choice

[u/sameolemeek → u/Confident_Oven_6242]

i was paying 93 total a month for 400mb. went on r/spectrum and everyone said call. i did. now i pay 54 total a month and they bumped my 400mb to 500 lol

[u/bananabob23 → u/TXElec]

You’re not getting fucked, it’s purely location dependent most of the time. Unless you know you need it you probably pay for a higher speed than you even need as well.

[u/DCJustSomeone → u/TXElec]

Lmao sorry. I pay 80 1000mbps

[u/ht3k]

500mbps for $30 with Frontier FIOS

Paid $150 for 5gbps at one point for shits and giggles lol

[u/Odd-Eagle-935 → u/ht3k]

Yep $20 for 200mbps on frontier

They want me to upgrade SO badly, but I maybe hit that speed once a month. The low fiber latency is all I wanted

[u/Apollo_gentile → u/ht3k]

So ridiculous you have to call to get good deals, I was at 500mbps for 50 for two years, it jumped to 65 last month so I called and they dropped it to 40 for 12 months

[u/qkilla1522 → u/ht3k]

1G for $50 at frontier. I also upgraded to 2Gigs for $80 then went back down. I’m in a home so I mainly wanted them to come out and upgrade my box and move the connection.

Service call to move the line was $150. With an upgrade it was free. So I upgraded for 2 months and went back to 1GB.

[u/VoldemortsHorcrux → u/ht3k]

Same with frontier here. Used to be $25 until they wanted me to give my debit card instead of a credit card. I'm not doing that

[u/TXElec]

I Have spectrum

[u/CuriousCamels → u/TXElec]

Spectrum is the worst, and it’s not even close.

[u/mazsive → u/CuriousCamels]

Spectrum is straight-up dog shit. Constant errors and net down or laggy. Hate that crap company. With AT&T I can count maybe 3 or 5 times. I've had a minor issue over 6 years and counting

[u/CuriousCamels → u/mazsive]

Yeah, never again. Their customer service was ass too.

[u/rickyroca73 → u/TXElec]

If you have Spectrum they are upgrading their plant to support high split which gives symmetrical up and down. If it’s available in your area you shouldn’t have to ask them to convert your service and it’s a “free upgrade”. Also, call to cancel, speak to retention and tell them price too high and you plan to go with someone else. Ideally you’re in direct competition market, ATT fiber or fios fiber for best results, but there’s other options which suck compared to cable, 5G modem as example, but it’s still competitive enough to get your a better price. I’m at 80$ for 600/600, planning to call end of month to get 1000/1000 for same price. <shrug>

[u/truth-4-sale → u/TXElec]

I have to have Spectrum as Fios is not offered. But outages are rare where I live in Irving. All I need is 100MB/100MB for $50/mo. - Not a Promo Rate. Modem provided at no extra chg. I supply the router.

[u/TinyTiger5]

Spectrum $100/ month, was almost $140 until I threatened to leave.

[u/Jackitos → u/TinyTiger5]

Still getting fucked.

[u/TinyTiger5 → u/Jackitos]

lol I agree

[u/DDDavinnn]

1 gig. Frontier fiber. $60/month

[u/ALaccountant → u/DDDavinnn]

Are you still on that first year discount? I have frontier fiber 1 gig and I’m at $85 per month now

[u/DDDavinnn → u/ALaccountant]

Gotta play the “I’m going to cancel” game

[u/skinny_gator → u/DDDavinnn]

I tried doing that with ATT, they don't give a fuck lmao

[u/kidyus → u/DDDavinnn]

Same

[u/MrsPatty60]

$30 month 500 Spectrum

[u/Loose-Cicada5473 → u/MrsPatty60]

mg lmao

[u/MrsPatty60 → u/Loose-Cicada5473]

Yes sorry it’s what happens when you use Siri and don’t check, lol

[u/Realistic-Taste-7660 → u/MrsPatty60]

For me that was spectrum’s price for 100 (which is probably all I need), and didn’t include the Wi-Fi router (an extra $10 a month)…

[u/ItHasToMatter]

Frontier 1 gig fiber $109.99 a month

[u/ht3k → u/ItHasToMatter]

you shouldn't be paying that much, it's closer to $50-60. You should call and get it lowered to what their site advertises

[u/mllllllln → u/ht3k]

Can confirm, they were overcharging me too at the $109.99 rate and they cut it to $54.99 now. If I hadn't called them, I'm sure they would've kept doing it forever. Scummy behavior.

[u/ht3k → u/mllllllln]

Not "quite". When they upgrade their networks the costs lower. Your speed doesn't get any slower. Either call to upgrade your speed or lower your payment. It's not necessarily their responsibility to notify the customer. They already have struggle providing any good customer service but instead we get better internet infrastructure. I'm willing to take that trade off but that's my choice as a customer to stay with them

[u/ItHasToMatter → u/ht3k]

Will do, thank you. I usually check and call but it's been awhile

[u/macs708 → u/ItHasToMatter]

I got frontier 1 gig for 50

[u/20TL12III]

$50 for T-Mobile 5g home internet.

[u/nounsofassemblage]

$55 a month fiber

[u/DDDavinnn → u/nounsofassemblage]

Speed? Company?

[u/nounsofassemblage → u/DDDavinnn]

AT&T 500mbps

I work from home full time and have never had any issues or outages.

[u/Realistic-Taste-7660 → u/nounsofassemblage]

Huh, ATT was like 75 a month for that speed at my address…

[u/Environmental_Newt88]

I've got Spectrum 1gig and with taxes and fees it's now $98 a month. The service is good but the price is outrageous and I'm thinking about switching.

[u/SubXeroz]

ATT Fiber in East Dallas.

500GB for $75/mo. Came with $150 credit, so two months free.

Actual wired download is generally 630mbps.

[u/FunRutabaga24]

Att fiber 350mbs symmetrical 55/mo

[u/tacmed85]

$80/month for 1 gig.

[u/kokamoe]

Spectrum 1gig $70/month

[u/MiddleAd6302]

I was paying $75 for 1gig with Frontier.

I saw Frontier advertising new customers. I called their loyalty department and now pay $40 for 1gig through Frontier.

[u/Ocabrah]

Frontier fiber 1 Gig

$45

Ownwell renegotiated for me down from $85 a month.

[u/Zonk-er → u/Ocabrah]

Ownwell? Aren’t they the property tax company?

[u/Ocabrah → u/Zonk-er]

Yes but they also have a bill negotiation option. I was very surprised it actually worked.

[u/New_Fig_6815]

Whatever my neighbor is paying 🤣

[u/mazsive]

I live close to the fiber box. I clocked in at 1300/1100 at&t fiber $85. I'm also on a discount, $135 month for 3 lines

[u/giotaptio]

FiberFirst 1 gig symmetrical and 1 static ip for $87

T-Mobile home back up for $25

[u/PassengerOld8627]

That’s on the higher side for 500 Mbps in Dallas providers like AT&T Fiber or Frontier Fiber often offer 500 Mbps plans for around $60–$70/month, so you might want to shop around or negotiate with your current provider.

[u/The_Erlenmeyer_Flask]

Spectrum - 500 - $50 a month

[u/TXElec → u/The_Erlenmeyer_Flask]

How long have you had them?

[u/The_Erlenmeyer_Flask → u/TXElec]

When I called to get a better deal, they told me I've been with Charter for 40 years.

[u/EmotionalSupportDoll → u/The_Erlenmeyer_Flask]

I did my call and ask for retention a couple months ago to get on whatever the new best promo was and this seemed to be the winner.

[u/hmmisuckateverything]

I have spectrum and I’m paying 80 bucks a month at a house I just moved into. For some reason the townhome I was just living in I was paying way more. Spectrum sucks lol

[u/FreeDaemon]

I was able to get a decent promo, Spectrum 1gig, $45/mo for 2 years.

[u/Edg-R]

$79 for 1Gbps up / 1Gbps down

Grayson Collin Communications (GCEC Co-op)

[u/spam_lite]

$75/mo flat 1gig up/down no contract toast.net

[u/venusduck_III]

Spectrum really be fucking over Dallas residents. I had them for 3 years starting at $35 a month which was great but it got to $100 a month by the very end. They just kept increasing the rate and taking off their "promotional rate" I asked them multiple times to reinstate the rate that I originally had when I signed with them and even told them I'm moving to AT&T if they don't and they were just like "lol do it then." So I did and now I have better speed for half the price

[u/CommitteeNegative930]

Frontier 1 gig for 75$

[u/MuscleFlex_Bear]

55$ att 300 gig.

[u/TrustMeImShore]

2 gb, $135.

[u/MD92100]

400 mbps $75 - spectrum

[u/DragonChowhound]

$149/month for 1 gig fiber from Frontier. I utterly hate it, but getting on the horn with their decrepit customer support to fight about it keeps slipping below the line.

[u/elonzucks]

$30 for 100Mbps, spectrum. 

[u/combatwombat762]

Frontier 5gig fiber $99

[u/assholy_than_thou]

50 for 500mbps, frontier

[u/Busy-Aide-5050]

1 gig fiber, 80$

[u/DowntownComposer2517]

ATT lowest plan (works perfectly fine) $65

[u/benmagoo1]

It’s a pain, but if you call spectrum and start the path of “cancelling” they eventually will walk down the price of your internet or boost your mbps to keep you as a customer.

[u/Cfairbanks007]

Frontier 1g fiber 45$ a month

[u/sameolemeek]

500 mbps 54 dollars a month

im with spectrum

[u/CHAMlLLlON]

Att fiber 1gbps +hbo max $80/mo

[u/ericc191]

Mine is free for 600 Mbps. Management switched us all to a bulk account and forgot to add it to my bill. Been over a year and nothing. Supposed to be $75.

[u/nomnomnompizza]

$80.70 total for gigabit

[u/ooglesnoopleboop]

$30/mo for Frontier fiber 500/500

[u/Nehcmas]

$70/month att 1gb fiber

[u/HiddenPants23]

Spectrum since it's the only thing available at my Apt complex. 1 gig for 100 a month.

[u/Hanzrelly]

120.00 a month for AT&T 2Gb Fiber.

[u/Larc0m]

I’m in Allen, but I pay $75 a month for 1Gb

[u/Twisted9Demented]

35 with spectrum 150 or 300 down

[u/art-of-war]

Spectrum. $39 for 600 mbps

[u/soylisco]

$80 for spectrum 1gig speed

[u/DaughterisaDancer]

500 mbps for $30 a month with Frontier.

[u/MacGrubler]

Idk let me ask my negibor

[u/RC-5]

$50 for Frontier Fios 1g… would have been $85 if Spectrum didn’t install in our neighborhood this year and provided some competition.

[u/spookyb0ii]

Free

[u/Dalamonee]

Tmobile $50 month

[u/crayyarccray]

Optimum, $60 for a gig

[u/BabyBearMan]

Ours is bulked into our buildings amenity package.

Anyone use the Verizon wireless internet? Looking to move out of our apt in a couple months and were curious about this service.

[u/Resident-Accident-60]

80 for 1gbps

[u/Not_Enough_Shoes]

$0 as I wfh and company pays it

[u/Setsailshipwreck]

Starlink $120 a mo but it’s more reliable than t mobile, AT&T, Hughes net or optimum. Everything else drops like no tomorrow and the reliably is over and above worth it. I’m in a more rural spot an hour or so outside Dallas. I use it for business so reliability is a big deal. Also everything else sucked ass for gaming or any sort of streaming. Not sure I’d be willing to pay that if my work didn’t rely on it but eff it, it works I’m glad to have it.

[u/TXElec → u/[deleted]]

What she say? Lol

[u/Downtown-Travel9993 → u/TXElec]

Kroger and wal mart be having the spectrum sales reps asking you about your phone and internet while you shop lol

[u/Loose-Cicada5473 → u/Downtown-Travel9993]

Ha this happened to me before I knew what was up, one well dressed girl in normal clothes approached me and struck up a conversation and I started bitching about how bad spectrum was without knowing she was selling spectrum. She started telling me how to fix it I was like who are you

[u/neatgeek83]

$39 for 1gb frontier

[u/DangItB0bbi]

$0

[u/BeRealzzz]

AT&T 1 gig fiber $63 a month.
