I changed my home internet service provider today.

I've been shopping around for some time trying to find a better deal than I have had. When I first moved to this area, the only one that was available to us was Xfinity, through Mediacom. Then they put in fiber optic but it has so many outages all the time, I don't want that one, either--plus, the price wasn't really much better than Xfinity. I settled on T-Mobile internet. I don't need a modem, they supply Gateway and also a booster. Hulu and Disney Plus are included, I got a special price AND the first full month is free. It's also no raise in price guaranteed for 5 years. Obviously, this will be the best, I love Hulu, and I won't have to pay for that now--just the one bill.
I am a happy camper. With the free month included, it's a lot cheaper.
Have you shopped for a new internet service lately? It definitely is worth looking into. These days, every penny counts.

The one I had since I had moved here was climbing up in price constantly, and I had more than enough of that, I was ready for a change.

That’s great! I only use my phone’s internet, so I have the lowest possible plan on Cox just so I can keep my email address. I don’t want to change emails since so many government agencies have my current one.
I’m so glad you’ll be saving more money!

I tried a few times to stick to just the phone internet, but it was just so laggy nothing worked right, so we gave up. This is such a good deal I am shocked. I was only paying for Hulu, and I had found a $12 a month special for that, but it was expiring. We don't have Cox here. And there are a few stray companies I could have gone with, not as cheap but they are down more than they are up, which makes no sense. I was just glad to find a bargain, with the free Hulu and Disney Plus! That's a lot!

@mariecoyle I’m searching for a better deal and I’ve found one for 50% less than what I’ve got. Tomorrow I sign up.
