Cable and Internet Billing

How much are you guys paying for cable and internet?

For basic HD and high speed internet, I'm paying a little over $110.

We have the "Shaw Digital TV", "High-Speed Internet" and "Digital Phone Basic" bundle for a grand total of $110.90 (we save $12.95/mo by bundling, woo!)

Didn't even notice the difference when we switched from Telus. Sounds exactly the same, except sometimes the outgoing ring sounds a little odd. Fax still works fine. Haven't noticed any difference to internet speed - I would guess, since they're using their own VoIP box and not going through the cable modem, that they apportion the phone its own bandwidth as well. Voice really takes very little bandwidth anyway, and if it did affect internet speed, it would only do so when you're actually on a call.

Does digital phone basic include caller id, call waiting or any of that stuff?

My phone bill is about $45 a month and I think my cable/internet bill is around $100 I was thinking about bundling them together as well. I know my brother in law had a horrible experience with shaw phone not working from time to time but this was about a year and a half ago so maybe it's better now?

$6.

Haha... only for another five months or so though. Just moved into a new apartment where the developer paid for the first year of Telus TV and Internet. I added the sports bundle for $6, so that's all I pay...

And I think I have a 25Mbit connection too... downloaded a file from Microsoft at 2.5MB/sec.
