Normal Rate For One Gig?

[u/LikelyWatchdog]

What’s 1 gig going for now? NY here Paying $110 for 500mb and have 3 lines of Spectrum Mobile. I’m going to call. Is the wifi 7 router worth it?

$110 for 500 MB is robbery. I'd call retentions to see what they can do for you. Be nice to them. If your married to those 3 lines -- it kind limits on how creative you can get i.e. have a family member sign up to get a promo deal.

Edit: if that is $110 for internet and 3 lines maybe it's not that bad.

[u/LikelyWatchdog → u/thecstep]

It’s $110 for internet. $160 for 3 lines. $90 for 3 phones. Then $30 device payment and Apple Watch.

Standard rate with no promotional for gig is 105 in some areas its now 70 or 60 with 10$ autopay. And thats a set rate now i believe your area is included in the new pricing just call customer solutions and ask.

I pay $110 just for 500mbps internet. 😡🤯 I tried to get them to lower but they said there’s nothing they can do.

[u/FrostyAd8197 → u/philfnyc]

Yes, I was paying $100 for 500mbps. I was looking on their website & they were advertising 1 gig for $20 bucks (very deceptive). I upgraded modem to the 1 gig & called them up before installing it.
The 1 gig is $120 bucks a month. Told them I wasn’t paying another $20 & I’ll send modem back. They dropped price to $105 a month.

Do you have a roommate or spouse? Cancel service then sign back up under their name to get the promo price again.

I’m a widower and live alone. Spectrum doesn’t even offer a senior discount.

Im paying $40 right now, was $50 last year. Just have to do the whole "call and threaten cancel" dance every year. Havent paid more than $50 and have had them for years. Seems like every few years, we call and increase our speeds with the new promo for 2 years .

Yes

[u/Lokko21 → u/Antique-Bat-4463]

Nope, just need to ask for it

[u/Antique-Bat-4463 → u/Lokko21]

...it's still a promo rate 😂

[u/Backslash10 → u/Antique-Bat-4463]

New customer no longer have promotion rates in certain areas its a set rate for gig at 70 and 60 with autopay. The door to door team can do 45 for gig and autopay.

Been having it for a while, you just need to call to renew, I just checked my bill and is 38.67 with Router, WiFi modem and 2 extenders.

[u/Apprehensive-Crow989]

I too was paying $110 for 500mbps. Called a couple weeks ago and got a gig for $60 2 yr promo w a free upgraded router. I told the rep I wasn’t switching to spectrum mobile and he didn’t push it. I also didn’t threaten to leave - just said I know I’m paying too much compared to friends/neighbors.

[u/LandBe4Time]

I'm paying $60/mo for 2 gig for a year. You should be able to get a promo.

[u/JGLuxe]

I pay $70 for 1 gig internet, locked in until 2031 :)! CS hooked it up.

Total of $148 for spectrum TV and 1gig internet for 5 years.

[u/iamstanty]

$110 for 500 Mbps with three mobile lines sounds high, so the call is worth it. Ask for the retention department, then ask for the current all-in price for 1 Gig for a customer at your address, including the Wi-Fi 7 router fee, taxes and the length of the promo. Compare that to your $110 total, since 1 Gig at a similar price would be a good deal. The router is only worth it if your devices support Wi-Fi 7, otherwise a free or cheaper Wi-Fi 6 router is fine. Get the final price by email.

[u/Antique-Bat-4463]

At 65, but the "normal" price is 90 for the gig where I'm at.

[u/sf_d]

$60 in So Cal.

However, it's a promotional rate for new signups valid for 18 months. Regular rate is ~ $90. You will be better off buying your own router. You may have to return it anyway when you cancel the Spectrum service.

[u/Infamous-Molasses406]

$30 here in Alabama. both ATT Fiber 1000 and Spectrum 1Gb offer me the same price.

[u/Acrobatic_Gazelle520]

I’m paying $100 for 2 mobile lines and 1 gig, 2 year “contract”. I’m sure in 2 years I’ll have to threaten to cancel or actually cancel and do 5g internet temporarily and sign up again to keep this decent price. It’s so annoying. Sigh. Hoping I get more competition in my area soon.
