How much is your cable bill people
    #18750663 - 08/24/13 09:17 AM (10 years, 5 months ago)

Well holy hell man my latest cable bill is north of 80 dollars. The fuck, bro. When I signed up I got Showtime & HBO because they were giving me the first 6 months of each free and now I guess the part where I actually have to pay for them is kicking in.

:resignednonacceptance:

Plus they're charging me an extra 20 for the HD DVR box. Beeeeyatches. And yeah I know I could cancel HBO/Showtime but I like both.

For those who have cable/satellite how much do y'all pay a month

I pay 50€/month, that includes C More/Viasat and a couple of Finnish cable channels.

Total of 12 channels, and I only need five(for sports), but I can't get them separately :crankey:

We decided to cut the cord like 5 months ago.  It was the hardest thing ever, but I see absolutely no difference.  We use internet and Netflix.  So I guess you could say we pay about $60 a month.  We still get to watch everything we used to :shrug:

I would if all I watched was movies and tv series but I watch a lot of sports. The main reason I got HBO & Showtime was for their boxing coverage. And yeah, I could stream a lot of the sports but naaaahhh, I'd rather have it in crystal clear HD on my television.

Ours will be pretty close to that this month unless they cut me a deal when I call them and start fake bitching/threatening to leave

I feel ya bro.

Fuck, I don't even watch boxing but the NHL/FA Premier League/La Liga/UEFA Champions League.

For those I have Viasat Hockey/Nelonen Pro 1&2(for NHL), then C More Sport 1&2, and Nelonen Pro 1&2(for soccer).

So actually I'm using 5 out of 12 cable channels that I pay for :shrug:

I didn't think about sports! We stream HBOgo, Netflix, and HuluPlus through our AppleTV, so we get that in HD (I think...it looks great, so I dunno)  Everything else I watch online.  I was told I could get a cord and hook it up to the big screen, so I'm gonna look into that soon.  We got HuluPlus so we could watch recent shows on the TV, since Netflix is like a season behind at best.  Some of their Hulu Originals are alright. But I don't think it's worth it.  It's just $8 a month, but still.  I'm ready to disconnect and it's only been like a month.

But back to the point, you should totally call up and threaten to cancel.  Every time I did, and I mean EVERY time, they offered me a sweet deal for like 6 months at a time.  Do eet!

Yup all that shit adds up. And then they make you get the entire package so you end up with a lot of channels that you'll never even use.

Why can't their be a provider where you can fully customize your channels? That would be good, I think. I feel like 75% of my channels go completely unused.

We actually have one of those operators, they offer a card where you can pick 8 channels and change them once a month if you like.

But, I get only 50% of the NHL I want if I take that deal, plus I need my soccer fixes, so I have to take C More&Viasat :sadyes:

Friggin lame. Just make a fucking all-inclusive mega-ultimate-super sports package for 80€/month and I bet you'll have a lot of customers :lol:

fucking TV-rights deals suck ass, there is no way that one  operator would ever get all those rights :shrug:

I have a ton of channels, also two HD boxes, don't have HBO or any of that. I personally really only watch the news and other things here and there.

I need to turn my Internet speed down, I don't game as hard as I used to online so I don't necessarily need a $100 Internet anymore

Don't pay for television or movies (besides Netflix and Amazon Prime). Never really liked network television anyway, shit rots your brain! Most of you are paying faaaar too much for crap...

I've always thought cable should be free too. Just like fm radio. If you want cable without advertisements (like xm radio when it comes to radio) you should have to pay for it.

I've had free cable for almost 6 months now, the only thing I have watched were the last two breaking bad episodes. Fuck commercials, especially on comedy central, they're way out of hand.

Yeah, my cable bill for the scum at TWC is $7 a mo for cable, phone, and internet. It includes the premium channels and an HD DVR. I use like -maybe- use 15 channels, at most. Though their customer support sucks, a lot, I  have not had any problems with them throttling my speeds... They also me pay BS fees on POS modems... Oh well, all in all for $7 I can't really complain.

BTW my net speeds are (advertized) 1mbps up/50mbps down

I don't pay for cable.

I have cable internet and just download everything I want to watch.

I think cable is kind of stupid, why pay extra to have all these channels that run on a schedule so you can't watch what you want when you want and you get all your shows interrupted with ads to buy more stupid useless shit.


$30/month for internet and $10/month for my VPN, and I can watch whatever I want, whenever I want without commercials.

What, you are paying for a service that allows you to watch programming which is paid for by advertisement.
If there where no commercials, there would be no programming, except for PBS, BBC and any other publicly funded stations.

I just wish that cable and satellite providers would let you pick the channels you wanted and pay a la carte. I don't hundreds of channels, I bet i could live happily on around 20.

Shit I used to get free satellite, every channel broadcast by DISH and I still couldn't find shit to watch. Granted one of those tivo things or whatever would of helped. I miss those days.

I have my laptop stream my shows and movies wirelessly to my xbox which is hooked up to a 46" tv.

I wouldn't watch stuff on my laptop screen that would be just lame.


I'd rather DL, anyway, I can get the best of the best quality.

My 4g kept working when I quit paying for service. I dunno why, the cell provider must have fudged up. Then I downloaded talkatone so I can make calls and texts, for free over the 4g. Works flawlessly, unlimited & free 4g, calls and text.

BOOM

Netflix doesn't run any ads and they have a couple original shows that are quite decent. Their subscription fees are also a fuck of a lot cheaper than cable. :shrug:

Oh yeah I should have mentioned netflix.


I don't pay for it, I just use my mom's account, but netflix is nice. I also use my moms amazon prime account, which imo, has better movies and shows then netflix.
