This is where I am at. Got a phone survey from comcast. Gave them 1 star on every category except how likely am I to continue to use comcast at which point I gave them a 10... because it's a monopoly and it's literally the only ISP in my area. I pay 150 dollars for 10mb/5mb service with a 3tb cap. If I go two blocks in any direction I can get 100mb/50mb for 40 bucks with no data cap. Even the exact same plan from comcast 2 blocks away is half the price with 8 times the speed and no cap.

Check out if Verizon has 5G Hone Internet coverage in your area. It’s $35 a month if you have your phone plan with them, as well. (I do not work for Verizon)

Verizon and T-Mobile have home internet via cellular faster and cheaper than you're getting.
