Hey guys. I have regular channels, movie package and sports package with Cox. Can you recommend something cheaper with getting the same channels? I need to get away from Cox. I have had Direct tv and the service sucked…never again. Thanks

YouTube tv is the most common answer $65 a month. For internet look up the T-Mobile 5g home internet. I just got my grandmother on it and it’s was giving her 150mb/s for only $50/month

Try out Dish Network - I switched from Directv to them years ago. Directv turned to crap when AT&T bought them.

Cancel and open new account promotion in your wife’s name, that will get you another year… I was stuck in a Cox monopoly once, had to argue on phone for lower bill or do above.
Or YouTube tv

Hard for the board to advise without knowing what channels/shows you watch. Here is a cnet article that lays out the basics. May not be fully updated, so once you start leaning one way or another; you'll want to check the streaming services site.
Also, keep in mind that you can combine Sling Blue & Orange for ~$70/month. Also, anytime you see $ instead of yes/no means that you will need to add an extra package to the quoted price

I went on Cox`s website last year and created my own plan. I got more than I had and paid less.
Once you let them screw you they will keep doing it unless you call or message on facebook or their website to lower it.

I run YoutubeTV with unlimited comcast 600 down. I pay $90/month for the comcast amd $65/month for YoutubeTV.

Find a competing deal in your area and threaten to leave. That’s what I did when ATT fiber became available in my area. They basically matched.

Cut the cable.
A few years back I cut my Cox bill almost in half by dumping their tv service and going with only their internet and Hulu's +Live package.
There are options out there.

Youtubetv if you have to have a platform. I've gone down to just comcast internet and downloading what I need while also using ustv247. I'm a big movie person so if I used common methods for movies I would shell out a lot of money. I just went with a NAS and download movies for my collection. It didn't take long for my NAS to pay for itself. I am looking hard at Starlink internet to get away from data caps as well as to have a solution for internet in a hurricane situation. Ida knocked me out for 3 weeks and this seems to be the best solution for that

YouTube tv with att fiber (free HBO with that)
Posted on 1/19/22 at 9:21 am to tigerbait3488
FuboTV is the current best bang for your buck. I’d highly recommend it after trying Slack, YouTube TV, and DIRECTV Stream.

I kicked Cox to the curb for both tv and internet. We were paying over $300/month.
ATT fiber unlimited is about (1000 plan) $75/month
YouTube is $65 no limit on tvs or users.
$140 vs $300

What is the plan called? Unlimited data?

Tell your grandmother that T-Mobile Home Internet has that same plan for 40 dollars if she is a Senior. I have Youtube Tv with unlimited VCR space. I love it. I had Dish, DirectTV, and Cox and this package is a 90 dollar swing for me...

I pay $210 a month for cable (decent amount of sports/movie channels), hi speed internet and alarm system with Comcast. It's not cheap but I am pretty satisfied with the service.
