Verizon FiOS service offers you an alternative to cable if you are not able to get satellite service. Many live in apartments on condominium units and they either won’t be in there long enough to fulfill a satellite TV contract, or the landlord may not allow them to have satellite TV. If this is the case in your situation, the Verizon FiOS promotions being offered right now may be of particular interest, as some of the offers right now do not require a contract.
FiOS promotions cover both the Verizon triple play and the double play deals. The FiOS triple play includes not only TV service, but also high speed internet access and home phone service. The double play eliminates the home phone calling option. One change that has been made recently is that not all FiOS deals require you to sign a two year contract. If you do agree to the contract though, you can lock you price in for that period of time.
The Fios double play promotion can get you into the entry level FiOS TV package (FiOS TV Prime HD) along with internet service for $69.99 a month. The FiOS internet speed is the 15 Mbps downstream with 5 Mbps upload speeds. One thing to keep in mind with these FiOS promotional prices is that they do not include any equipment fees. Most cable and satellite TV packages include the cost of one regular receiver in the package, but this is not the case with FiOS TV. Receivers start around $6 a month, but if you are hooking up multiple devices the FiOS Home Media DVR is probably the best way to go, and that option is $19.95 a month. There is one promotion currently running where you can also get the Home Media DVR free for six months.
The Fios Triple play promotion includes the same features as the double play but will give you home phone calling in addition. With FiOS digital voice, you can call anywhere in the country as well as to Canada and Puerto Rico. The plan also includes 20 different home phone features like caller ID and voice mail so you can certainly use the phone as much as you want without using up minutes on your wireless plan. This FiOS bundle starts at $89.99 a month, plus any equipment costs that you may encounter.
With this FiOS promotion, you do also get free HD channels included with the Prime HD package. There are only 40 high definition channels, so if you are looking for a more inclusive television package, you may need to go to the Extreme HD or the Ultimate HD options. Like competitors DIRECTV and Dish Network, Verizon changes things up several times a year, so visit their website to locate the most current promotional offers.
