How much are you paying for phone, internet & TV?

We switched to FIOS a couple of years ago. We have internet, phone and we have 1 High Def. box and a DVR. We are paying $250/mo. Someone told me I'm crazy. We dont have HBO or anything like that.

ETA: I just realized we added our cell phone to the same bill.

so it is approx. $140/mo. for phone, internet and TV and than approx. $100/mo. for 2 cell phones.

Re: How much are you paying for phone, internet & TV?

We got Cablevision Triple Play (this is our first month having it) our first bill is for (I believe) approx. $130 or $140. This is for phone, internet, 1 HD DVR box, 1 HD box w/out DVR, Family package of channels and HBO channels as well. $250 seems like a lot to me, especially without additional movie channels.

We pay $114 for the Optimum Triple Play... We have 2 HD boxes but only 1 has DVR. $250 sounds pretty high to me.

Re: How much are you paying for phone, internet & TV?

Our triple play just expired and now we pay around$170/mo for cable, internet, and phone. We have one movie/special channel + on demand for that channel, which I think adds an extra $10 - $15 to the bill. We have 2 HD boxes, but only 1 has DVR.

$250 sounds very high to me.

Re: How much are you paying for phone, internet & TV?

That sounds right to me, we pay between 250 and 270 a month. But we have 4 on demand channels, DVR boxes, phone, online ect

I also feel like every month theres a UFC.. so that adds another 40 or 50
