Comcast High Speed $19.99 month + freebies

[angelaira]

I went into Circuit City today and found a good deal on Comcast, $19.99 a month for new subscribers, locked in for 6 months, a free after rebate cable modem (total of two $20 rebates and one $40 rebate) along with a mail in offer for a free $75 CC gift card. No contract either, so you can get out of it after the six months is over. All in all, you get 6 months of Comcast for $45. When I called earlier today, they gave me $29.95 a month, and promised me that was the best deal available. I called and cancelled from my cell phone at CC when I saw their offer. Hope somebody finds this useful!

I was able to get a similiar deal (6 months @ 19.99 in july 2004) and comcast has been very fast in my area however not 100% reliable. about once a month my cable will go off for an hr or so not horriffic but eh has been a slight annoyance.

Or you can order through Dell and receive a $100 rebate.

Anyone in the DC area been able to extend their 6 months at $19 deal? Mines about to run out in January and I've been wondering if they'll offer us the $29 a month deal to keep us.

After 6 months, just call and complain to them that you will cancel because dsl etc is cheaper as an alternative. Most likely they'll extend it another 6 months or adjust it to whatever your competitor is.

I did this same rebate that ended 9-30-04. Same deal as the one linked by dabuddah, but a different promotion number. I still haven't received my rebate or even seen it entered in the staplesrebates.com site.


I called the toll free number and the automated voice said they were sending me some form within the next 15 days for me to fill out, send back and then I can get my rebate.

I was under the inpression that all the rebate forms I filled out and sent in would be enough. Anyone else have to do this for the $130.00 Staples/Comcast promotion?

You definitely need to keep on top of things with the staples rebate. They never informed me but after I checked online, it told me my rebate was denied. After emailing them, they told me I need to fax in a copy of my first months bill even though I had mailed it along with the form. So of course, I sent a 10 page fax including everything from my original rebate submission (including a copy of the envelope I mailed it in )
3 weeks later, I got my check

my preivous $19.99 for 6 month is about to expire too in jan; tried to talk to 2 CSR to extend my promotion period (which used to work) but both replies me back with a 3-month waiting policy for existing customers to jump on another deal...damn...

I have been with Comcast for 5 years. I called them up on Christmas Day and asked if they could make me an offer to stay since I was looking into getting DSL. They said they could offer me $19.99 for 3 months but that was the only offer they had. Damn it, wish I knew about the 6 month one and I would have pushed for it. Atl east I got 3 months for $19.99 instead of $42.

 

[wchou]

some people get it for a year, it depends how you talk to them. if you keep this up, you can have it for 19.95 indefinitely. SBC is 26.95 and 19.95 if you have unlimited long distance plan.

 

[wchou]

btw, I use to be with Bellsouth and called to cancel but was then given 3 months free. Wow, so for the next three months I get charged nothing. It was for new customer promotion only so I guess they were just being nice.

 

[Stealth3R]

comcast don't check customer by their SSN anymore. I live in an Apt. and I've moved quiet a few times for the past 2 years. I'm still on the plan 45 bucks right now for tv+internet. Just cancel, and call in and sign up under another name or let your wife, sister sign up lol. and tell them you just moved in..wassup?

 

[jinduy]

so guys which deal would u choose given the CC, dell, and staples deals? not a big fan of rebates .

 

[ImDonly1]

My friend has Comcast Internet. He has the deal for $20 or $30 for the first 3 or 6 months. Then after the 3 or 6 months runs out he cancels it. Gets DSL and then a month later he gets Comcast again or when his contract with DSL runs out. You have to wait one month before you can accept a promotion form Comcast if you were using one before. I think it is $20/month if you have Cable TV through Comcast or it is $29.99 if you do not have Cable TV through ComCast.

well, the staples rebate before gave me free service for 7 months. i have heard of some trying to get more than 1 of the rebates and getting a few hundred back. YMMV. get the one that you get the best return on. My staples one came licketty-split.

Is there any reason you can't call again after the 3 months is up and say, "I'm splitting for DSL unless you give me a deal" again?
