satellite tv...basic pkg

what is the total cost of these per month?

feel free to post any details you want to include like extra features, name of service, location etc...

thanks:hi:

[Broken_Hero]

1. 93 dollars...for all three....nt

[wildhorses]

3. is this all combined through the same service

or is three different companines?

[Broken_Hero]

4. all through the same service/company...

we have had all three for damn near a year now....its not bad, basically 30 bucks per service...

[wildhorses]

7. do you mind to give the name?

:hi:

[Broken_Hero]

10. its a local

no namer, but its name is S-GO. Its weird though, our tv is run through phone cords, no cable/satellite, just phone cord....

[wildhorses]

11. i bet that is what happens with me

i wonderered about the tv part

are you ount in the boonies?

what kind of tv pkg do you have?

[Broken_Hero]

15. yes, I'm out in the boonies...

the tv package isn't bad...I got about 100 channels, but I'm missing some common ones, like CNN, TNT, TBS, Carton Network, and the CW channel....usually, those are main staples with tv packages...but from what the ladies say at the front office, they are always trying to get new channels added.....

I could get the better package, which adds Cinemax, HBO, Showtime...and I think thats an extra 30bucks(not entirely sure)....so, they do have some prime channels...

[wildhorses]

18. i bet i end up with something along this same line

do you have abc, cbs, nbc??

[Broken_Hero]

24. yes, I got all of them...-edit

abc/cbs/nbc....

Eta-our caller id flashes across our tv screen, about 4 seconds before the phone rings too..it took me by surprise the first time that happened...:D

[wildhorses]

28. now that IS cool

i will not know to act if i have tv again...

it has been a matter of pride and principle and simplification for so long

and now the man

is making it simpler

to have it

must reassess my priorities pronto;)

[Broken_Hero]

29. I understand that...

I was without tv for about...hmm, 4yrs before getting it last June...I always wanted to get direct tv/dish network, but money was always tight...last June, my wife started an online uni program, and we needed high speed internet, so I looked around for tv/phone/internet packages...and basically I had to go with S-Go, or not have it at all, and it was a decent price I thought...previously, just for dial up/phone I was paying 55 bucks....

[LeftyMom]

2. closest equivalents

I get tv, internet and phone from my cable company, $99/mo for three, with all the phone features and domestic L/D included. With taxes, the upgrade to HDTV, a few extra cable boxes, HBO, etc I wind up paying about $130/mo for all of it.

[wildhorses]

5. do you mind to name the company?

:shrug:

this is west coast, correct?

:hi:

[LeftyMom]

9. Comcast. I'm not super enamored of them, but the phone company sucks more

and there's no competition here for broadband, so I deal.

[wildhorses]

13. lack of competition ---

so far i am ok with my service am considering adding the satellite...

[TOhioLiberal]

6. Let's see...

...Landline --$0. Cell phone is about $70 a month 2 lines. 500 minutes free nights and weekends.
I have cable modem--54.99 a month. Antivirus + firewall included. 12 (!) email addresses included.
Satellite TV. I do not have. We get a ton of junk mail advertising 19.99 a month for the first 6.

Not sure if this is much help, but there you go.

[wildhorses]

8. which comes to a total of ---

about $140.oo a month with NO satellite?

:hi:

[TOhioLiberal]

12. Roughly...

...The cable company is a local outfit. The cell phone is Verizon. I don't know what the monthly charge is after the promotional period is over. So 140 is probably low.

[wildhorses]

14. that sounds high to me --

compared to what the rest of us are comparing:shrug:

[TOhioLiberal]

17. Actually it is...

...everything is high around here.

[wildhorses]

19. this is free

:hug:

[wildhorses]

20. and this is extra (heehee)

:hug:

[crispini]

16. Hm...

Landline (without caller ID and voicemail) plus DSL ... about $80 a month. From AT&T.

I don't purchase TV. I am cheap! :)

[wildhorses]

21. me either --but, i am thinking about it

cos you know...

i can upgrade:P

:hi:

[hfojvt]

22. land line is about $30 and dsl $26.95

no caller ID or voice mail though, and no long distance. I pay nothing for TV, get about seven channels from Kansas City. I have decided that I am going to watch alot less.

[wildhorses]

23. at least you can still get tv the old fashioned way

:cry: i wish i could, i am geographically challenged form the south, east and west. there is no channel from the north for a long, long, ways :cry:

i would give up caller id and voice mail and apply it to the tv bill...hope to do as well as petersond...looks like so far he has the best deal going...

[hfojvt]

25. Please come to Denver, to live forever

we'll move up into the mountains so high where we can't be found
and throw 'I love you' echoes across the valleys
and then lie awake at night
'til they come back around ...


At least I have the selling point of free TV


and I can get some plastic wrap



for my tentacles.

[wildhorses]

27. tempting ....

but, why must you ramble around?

i am the number one fan...

[bridgit]

26. $98, but we don't have basic cable, that's just the number per your OPq...

:)
