I’ll start by saying I’m in northern Michigan kinda rural.

Internet speeds are as good or better than Comcast’s. My kids live downstate and the same site that load quickly here take longer with Comcast.

Then the true kicker…since we have Spectrum internet we get our mobile for 14 bucks a month, no taxes, no odd fees… 14 dollars for one gig of data. There are so many Wi-Fi hotspots around most of what we use is Wi-Fi which does not count toward your data.

We have two lines…my wife’s and mine. We went from paying over 150 dollars a month with Verizon to 28 dollars a month. If you go over your one gig it’s 14 bucks each additional gig, at least that’s what it used to be, haven’t ever had to add on.

Internet alone is about 80 dollars but we have a small cable package also that keeps costs down and gives us more (cable).
