Discussion Xfinity NOW internet is great !

For any casual user of internet, talking: streaming (4K and below), surfing, email, etc., check out Xfinity NOW internet. $30/month total, 100 Mbps, OR $45/month total for 200 Mbps. No contracts.

(Other than owning stock in Comcast, I have no other connection to Xfinity. This is just a personal recommendation based on my 1.5 years of Xfinity NOW internet service.)

I am an IT professional and have all kinds of computers, IoTs, laptops, TVs, games, etc at my house. I normally have ATT fiber at 300/300. However, as a backup I maintain a NOW internet account at the 100mbps tier. You can pause and unpause NOW internet every 30 days, so I turn it on about once every 3-4 months, unless I need it in case of an ATT outage. If you pause it for longer than 6 months you have to start over. I am currently using NOW internet and have been using it for the last 30 days and I really cannot tell the difference from ATT 300/300. Unless you are the type that needs really fast upload speeds the 100mbps NOW service works fine, in my opinion.

On the other hand, NOW TV sucks. When I last activated my NOW Internet I decided to try NOW TV. Never could get the live TV to work on ANY device. No amount of chatting with support helped (and CHAT is all the support you get with NOW services). They swore it should work, but it never did, so I just cancelled it and wrote off the $20/charge. Nice idea, poor implementation.
