If you're paying $173/mo for that internet and actual 'basic cable' - big 4 + pbs/shopping/church - you are being abused and should cancel immediately.

That sounds overpriced given any definition of basic cable I can think of.

That's what I'm thinking too. Soon I plan to dispute my bill before the annual increase, or threaten to cancel and switch to AT&T.

There's no need to be that extreme - just call them and ask for a lower price, you'll get it.

If they push, tell them a neighbor just signed up at a lower rate or similar, you'll get a big decrease of your bill pretty quickly.

Why wait?
