Getting rid of Optimum?

Hi ladies,

I live in the town of Brookhaven, where I believe Optimum is our only choice for TV.

We are trying to save $ for maternity leave, and want to not pay almost $200/ month for this!

Does anyone know what the cheapest options are for TV, WiFi, and house phone? I believe its been mentioned about streaming tv over tablet/ Nabi, etc. How does that work?

Any input would help!

Thanks so much!!!

Call them up and say the dreaded four letter F- word ... FIOS Chat Icon

They will probably give you a discount (though only for about a year before it goes back up).

Thank you!!! Didn't think we could do Direct TV/ FIOS. Can I ask how much? Just trying to figure it out financially

Fios doesn't come by us. optimum or a dish is the only option here. we got rid of cable with them, just have internet service (still close to 75 a month just for internet) and we have amazon instant, hulu and netflix for TV.

We got rid of cable a while ago. It was the BEST decision we ever made. We use Hulu/Netflix/Amazon now. I would not go back to cable if it were free.
