Thinking of making the switch from Uverse back to Comcast

Duane, I too was recently tempted by the Comcast deals.
I called AT&T, told them what Comcast was offering and they beat it so they could keep me.
My bill dropped by over $75 and I have their 450 package to include more add ons.
I had the second lowest package at the time.
Give them a call if you are happy with them, which I am.

I had the 450 package, internet, and phone for $182/month, which was set to expire after the 12 months tomorrow. Their solution to "save me money", was to downgrade me to the 200 package with the same internet/phone plans for $164. They're offering new customers the 450 package for $2 less/month than my 200 plan now in addition to a $200 gift card. I'll try again.

No fiber here, so the choice was Comcast or Dish/DirectTV and DSL. Decided to stay with Comcast in our new home. Can't really complain; rates are actually comparable when you compare apples to apples....service is fast and solid.

Not sure if Comcast's rates are comparable nation wide, or if different areas have substantially different packages / prices..?? For us, it basically came down to the devil you know, etc....

You need to let them know the offer being made to you by Comcast and tell them you hate to leave but it is all about finances.
Tell them to switch you to their top secret special "retention" department. Just joking on the top secret part.
