The Telecom Industry Is Very Mad Because The FCC MIGHT Examine High Broadband Prices::We’ve long noted how the FCC (regardless of party) largely ignores how muted competition and monopolization drives up prices for consumers. The agency often talks a good (if ambiguous) game about “bridging the digital divide,” but they don’t collect and share pricing data proving market failure, nor are they capable of admitting monopolies exist and…
Kinda curious. Americans of lemmy: How much do you pay for internet?
I’m up a bit north Eh. Paying cad$135 (usd~$99.50) monthly before tax for Gigabit with no data cap.
I’m super lucky. Apartment has integrated dirt cheap symmetrical 1gb for ~$30/mo
Damn, that’s a good deal.
Is rent a bitch to compensate? Or is that decent too.
Rents not bad (~$1300 w/ utilities ~750sq ft) but most stores are 5-10 min drive. Pretty close to perfect just wish it was in walkable neighborhood
I pay $39.99 USD for 300 megabit symmetrical fiber.
Same
I have symmetrical gigabit for $75/month. It was $65 but Centurylink decided to raise it randomly a few months ago with no warning. The notification that my bill would be going up came after the date they said it would be going up and after I received the increased bill. No data cap though and no extra bullshit fees.
The alternative is through Wave that would not be symmetrical and would come with a cap.
$56 for 500, no caps
You’re going to get numbers all over the place lol.
I’m $70 for a gig up and down. My parents are $150 for 150mb down and either 15mb or 25mb up. They also have a 1 gig soft cap before getting throttled.
oof getting robbed, Rogers has gigabit for around 80CAD if you negotiate with them. Assuming you’re in a city with them
Only provider available at my address (Telus, ugh).
