Consumer Cellular is much less expensive, but they have great coverage even
in the High Desert of Southern California where a lot of cell phone
providers don't have the best of service.

Hi,

I really like Consumer Cellular.

I switched a few months ago and cut the bill to more than half of what I pay
for my Mom's service where she is in the Atlanta area and mine here.  

I'll likely subscribe other devices later on but that's one thing that will
be a little hard to give up is I only pay for a data plan for my iPhone with
Xfinity Mobile and it costs me just a little over $13 per month and so when
I switch to Consumer Cellular, I'll probably have to pay around $45 per
month but that's for unlimited everything.  Still after I added costs, I'll
likely save around $100 per month.

Amanda:

I have Consumer Cellular. If you get a phone, don't get the CCI link phone.
I have that 1 & I'm already on my 2nd phone. I've been with Consumer
Cellular since Last October. Other than that, they have excellent customer
service. Also, their coverage is very good. Any other questions, contact me
off list @ the email below.

I am going to unbundle and likely buy a device which enables you to plug a
cordless phone into a device which uses cellular.  Since Comcast uses Voice
over IP, the quality shouldn't be any worse and you can take this device
with you if you want to leave home.

I know of one provider which is called Consumer Cellular who offers this
device.  You can find Consumer Cellular online; www.consumercellular.com or
visit a target store.

Then I will probably return to Verizon where I had more accurate internet
speed as with Comcast, responsiveness is very dependent upon network load.

Then for TV, well you already know what I'm looking into.

I'll use the Amazon FireTV with a couple of Apps to access some of the
program I would obtain form Comcast.
I also have a lifetime subscription to Sirius/XM and I use it primarily for
listening to CNN sports and otherwise.  I just delete the emails I receive
from Sirius/XM as I don't plan to make changes to something which is already
paid for <smiles!>.

I subscribe to other streams for music and so on.



HTH!

Amanda

Comcast does offer a bundle with Internet, TV, and phone, which we have. 
My issue was whether it would be cheaper to get something like Youtube TV or
stay with a bundle.
