Verizon Fios planning install/pricing tips/warning ; )

Seems a love/hate with Fios. Love what you get, hate the pricing, and long service calls.

Anyhow, my fixer upper short sale home has me super busy with replacing all flooring. I will have little time w/ furniture in new home before deciding where I want TV's (jack cost $55 a pop)... and I am thinking 3-4 rooms would be good w/ TV.

 Have DirectTv now, and they won't seem to compete with Fios (until they lose you as a customer). though scary, hearing about Fios billing coming in higher than expected?

Wanting a multi-room DVR at $19.95 a month, with 3 additional standard receivers at $5.99 each.... cha-ching. Unless I drop one off and have a computer for the 4th room.

Advantages are wireless routers included, internet/cable combined billing, and sharing of DVR'd programs throughout the house.

I am a big TV/cable watcher, so I guess I just bite the bullet and do it/pay it. But... 

Any tips before I dive in w/ Fios?

 Thanks!

  • When I signed up with Fios last month (online) I got the multi-room DVR free for 12 months. I'm not sure if this is still available but you might want to look into it

  • DS just switched from optonline to fios and loves it.  She too is a tv buff.  She just had installed on 7 televisions VZ's Ultimate HB package which is costing her 185.00/mth for two years month to month.

    I played with it yesterday soooooooo many channels, its crazy.  But the tv buff she is loves it.  Check it out.
