		<description>I am just SOOO sick and tired of all of these different rebates and offers..just give me a good deal and tell me what the price is up front..not just for 9 months but for continued service..the reason that people are reluctant to sign up is that it is way too confusing ..you don&#039;t really know what you&#039;ll end up with!!!</description>

		<description>To Richard and Lanie, The rebates take months to get You might want to call the rebate company to follow up on it. It took me about 6 months to get my money ( which turned out to be a debit card, not a check) when I first signed up for Comcast. On the internet deal, I&#039;ve gotten that too reduced, but by judging by the price drop, I&#039;d say the price is good for only 6 months. You might want to check on that. The secret is &quot;The Cancelation Dept&quot; !</description>

		<description>The secret to getting the Comcast Deal to when you call them, select &quot;cancelation of service&quot;. This will connect you to that dept, Only they have access to deals the reg sales dept doesn&#039;t have. I first called the sales dept with no luck and then called back and talked to the cancelation dept and got 3 for $99 a month plus HBO for 2 years free and use of the DVR for 6 months free. The only thing she wouldn&#039;t give me was the $200 cash rebate. But I was very happy with it. AT&amp;T UVerse is coming on strong and they are very aware of it. AT&amp;T right now, can&#039;t touch the Comcast deal, although I&#039;m hearing they are now giving their DVR at no charge. Look for thing to get very competitive!</description>

		<description>I thought I wouldn&#039;t get ANY sort of deals with Comcast since I am kind of irresponsible about the bill &lt;(college students tend to be poor sometimes). Anyway, I called to cancel and to my surprise they gave me my internet for 27.95 including renting the modem. There is no limit to this deal and it beats paying 45.00+ every month for just internet. Try it!</description>

		<description>This info is so outdated it is not even funny. I just called and basically there is nothing this lousy company can offer me. Their best deal was The Started Digital package for $53 a month and they would give me $100. They do not even offer the &quot;Ditch the Dish&quot; program. You have to call Comcast directly to get that deal.

So basically it was a waste of my time to call this company. I wish sites like this would update and remove old posts. I called 9/7/07.</description>

		<description>As you know, Jim, I did this with my roommates about 6 months ago.  It looks like we did the Comcast Offers deal (though we got $100 rebate instead of $75).  For starters, I JUST got the rebates a week ago.  They took their sweet time about it, but it did all come in ($80 for the free modem and $100 in cool cash).  And of course, the $20/month rate for 6 months.  A few notes though -- the rate was (perhaps, &quot;is&quot;) only good for places with *existing* cable TV service.  Keep that in mind.  So basically, you have to two-step it.  Sign up for the best TV deal, then after that goes through, sign up for internet.

Aside about TV service.  I found the best deal for the TV service BY FAR was found by talking to the kiosk guys at the mall (Arundel Mills in particular for other Marylanders).  Things onilne or over the phone weren&#039;t even close.  Also, calling them 3-4 different times, I got a different price all but once.  And all the prices were horrible.  The kiosk guy put together a number of great deals.  In the end, since we care less about all the nifty cable packages, we got FSS (basic channels) and HBO with a digital box (not digital cable though, but the box, so you get the guide feature -- crucial!) for ~$35 a month for 12 months.  I think the FSS alone over the phone was $50 (no HBO and no box).  Not even close...</description>
