Bill Increase and Speed Concern

I just had a similar increase. My bill went from $60/mo (for "Connect More" speed) to $81/mo, with no explanation and no change in service. I have, however, noticed a substantial lag in internet speed over the past month, and I attribute that to my ISP, since I am very diligent about maintaining my laptop's security and performance.

This is just another sign of Comcast's attempt to squeeze more money out of its subscribers, for BASIC internet services.

Any changes to your bill or to your plan can be found on your billing statement.

That's just it, THERE WAS NO CHANGE! There was no advanced notice of any change either, which makes me think they just arbitrarily upped the cost of their 300Mbps service. Now, I get to downgrade my speed to pay the exact same amount! On top of that, their customer service has not gotten much better in the past 20 years, so I will just be moving to another ISP in the near future....one with better speeds, better service, and better support.
