[Need Info] Any special deals or promos for Phone and Internet o
I'm on Zoomtown in Northern Ky, and I want something faster, so I'm considering dropping my CinBell Phone and Zoomtown and getting Phone and Internet with Insight.
When I call, they say their new-customer bundle rate ($85) for phone and their 20.0 broadband is their 'best promotion' right now. Can anyone give me hints on how to get a better deal?
Other charges I'm sure will include Installation (maybe i can negotiate that away) Modem ($50 or rent) Porting my old phone number ($10 i think). Jeez. There's gotta be a way to get a better deal? Anyone?

Anyone?
Also, is there any drawback to buying my own modem say from Craigslist? Can someone tell me the latest brand/model I should look for?

No. Right now I pay about $40 for phone for internet. Total = about $55. All these figures are pre-tax and fees, of course.

Humm, I don't think your going to be able to get them to go any cheaper unless you get cable tv too. Also if your going to get their phone service they will require you to use one of their broadband/voip modems.

Can anyone tell me the model number(s) for those broadband/voip modems. Maybe I can get one from Craiglist. Also, do those modems also serve as a routers?

I don't know if they will let you use your own or not. I know that they provision them on site and I don't know if they have anything special going on with them. I would call the office and ask if it will work or not before you waste your time/money. As soon as I get home I will post the Name and model number.
