This is crazy and smells like anti-trust issues :patrice:................... but Philly is about to :eat:, Comcast is based there and built the tallest building in the city a few years ago....... I been hearing talk about a new Comcast tower going up, here it is .... 1,100 footer and will be tallest in the city, even taller than NYC's Chrysler Building

The tall rectangular building on the left is the current Comcast tower, and the building with the spire is the one they are getting ready to build supposedly

almost 2 bills after taxes, but I have a home line, internet, cable w/ premium channels ( :shaq: ) and multiple boxes (3)...

They have deals much cheaper though, make sure to act like your not interested or know of better offers
TWC is cheaper than that :rudy:

fukkin liberals I swear. At least put forth an argument as to why this is bad/evil. There is only a thread title...
...not even an link or real comment in the op. Just a mention of the acquisition, followed by outrage :deadrose:

... and then the free market is pointlessly thrown in the mix just for shyts and giggles, cause f*ck that too. :heh:
Isnt this an example of the free market? Monopolies exist in True freedom, friend. :sitdown:

:patrice: Could be time for me to renegotiate and claim that I'm leaving again....

The only options in the area are complete garbage though.
Leave and someone from their retention team will call you within a couple days I promise you they will discount the shyt outta your services and give you intro prices. Works every time :win:

Its ok with uncle same. Cable companies service regions, so its not like they're in competition with one another in their respective territory.

I still haven't heard whats evil/bad/wrong with the deal? Or how the people in here angry have been f*cked by this?....
:wtb:Your joking right? Comcast now owns 75% of the cable market in 40+ states you know how much power that is all in one company, that's like fukking ocp running America.
