How do you ballets do it with xfinity?

My bill is 235 a month so I call up and say "how can I lower my bill?@. The girl tells me I can't cause I'm on contract till 01/2017 and if I go down I lose a promotional deal my wife took. I said well I will go to WOW. she says on the termination fee is 230 bucks. Didn't even start to negotiate with me. I always read stories where some baller gave xfinity the business and the dropped the price by 100 bucks.

I don't bro, I'm in WI and pay similar for AT&T... I've tried the go around as well...Biggest problem is my family and I enjoy the product... Does your family like it?  

btw Go Pack Go!!!

Dude, you bitched out.

When she tells you what the cancel price is, don't blink. Tell her you're going to pay it, then she transfers you to a person who cuts you a deal. This is the way it works

Cheesy we do like it. And ass Dan, is my phone number now red flagged as being a little bitch? I really don't want to lose anything but I really would like to cut the bill. I've been a loyal paying customer for decades.

$129/mo but all I have is cable/internet. One TV/DVR. Free HBO for two tears. Six months ago I returned their modem. Rep asked me if there was anything else I needed. I said no thanks my next move will be cutting the cord. Five minutes later my bill was dropped thirty a month and HBO thrown in. The only downside is that tied up two years, supposedly with no rate hikes but we'll see.

Call WOW and tell them you're ready to switch but only if they pay the termination fee for you.

$235? What kind of porn are you paying for? Holy balls batman.

You don't live with three women. I'm often away on weekends I have teenagers who need the full TV in the basement for friends. Have to have the main one for the family room, wife likes one in the bed room and we enjoy the one in the kitchen while cooking. Tell me what I should drop?

I just ordered cable for my new home. They surely know how to get you. I also totally understand. I am having them install TV in 6 rooms. I did buy the VOIP modem myself though to save money.

Just call back and tell them you're all done and you don't care what it costs to opt out. Bet money they cut you a deal

Damn guys... Why the Fuck do you need that many TVs?

I don't see any more than two needed in any house. There ain't shit on anyway.

This. One in the family room, one in the kitchen. Neither of us want a tv in the bedroom. There's only two things going on in there. I admit that I am considering one of those Electric Mirrors for the bathroom, though.

Have you considered wearing a tutu when doing ballet with the cable company?

Tell your kids to go outside. TV should be off in the summer.

Stayed at a Marriott in Chicago that had one. Kinda cool. It was also heated so it never fogged up. The funny part was the main TV had no ESPN2 channel but the bathroom TV did. It was during hoops season and I had to watch the State game in the bathroom. I complained to the front desk and they did give me free internet access for the three days I was there.

Just like Cheesy said: it's a regular bathroom mirror with one small area (guessing maybe 12"x12") that's a couple shades darker than the rest but still reflective like the rest of the mirror. It comes with a remote. Turn it on and there's your TV. The place where I stayed used small, overhead Bose speakers. IDK if Bose comes with the mirror or if the hotel added them.
Handy as hell, maybe even a little too convenient for my tastes, because I noticed both my wife and I taking longer to get ready to go places.

No, but I am the type that thinks kids should be tossed outside and told not to come back until they have killed or caught something for dinner.

When you said "only two things happen in there" and then started talking about an electric mirror, my mind went somewhere else. Color me disappointed.

Sorry about that. An electric mirror in the bedroom would sound a lot more fun than it really was. I guess I could ask my wife to paste some glitter around the edges, you know--just to sex it up.

Meh, kids dance six hours daily, I don't begrudge them their TV they aren't slobs or bad students.

Sort of. Lose a finger in the morning and go back to work in the afternoon and you have earned my admiration.

Between dance, working eight hours a day, and sleeping, I guess that is not too much TV.

I remember taking dance classes in the summer when I was a kid.. it was a good time... I was so relieved when I got TV time.

You took dance classes in the South in that era? How did you survive?
