Why does double play cost more than triple play?

all I want to do is get rid of my phone service so I can stop throwing away $120 a year renting a modem.  multiple reps confirmed that my package price will go up by switching from triple play to double play.  I also asked what would happen if I purchased my own modem (without telephony) and was told I would be automatically downgraded to double play.  I want less but to get less I have to pay more.  Does anyone have any suggestions that could help?

thanks for the response.  I have called and spoke with retention about 3x now.  They told me I am already on a great promtional (not under contract) triple play bundle.  I am okay with the price I guess but all I really want to do is purchase my own modem.  I have already paid them over $240 the past 2 years which is a complete waste.  The modem I want to get does not support telephony.  I don't understand why I can't use a compatble modem and keep paying for the triple play and just not use the phone service.

  • Why does photoshop cc cost more than creative cloud photography plan?

    I see that Photoshop cc costs $10 per month more than the photography plan, even though the plan includes photoshop cc.  Are the applications different in the two plans?

    Hi Howard,
    The main difference in price between them is because Photoshop CC plan comes with 20GB of online storage space and inclusion Behance ProSite.
    For other difference between Photoshop CC and Photography plan you can follow the article: Photoshop Help | Differences between Photoshop and Creative Cloud Photography Programs where the difference is clearly mentioned.
    Let us know for any more confusion around this.
    Thanks,

  • Why does blast internet cost more than the tv/internet

    This is absolutely ridiculous.  I am paying twice as much for twice as less.  I don't have other choices of ISPs in my areas otherwise I'd leave immediately.  I have had constant disconnections with Xfinity several service calls and no resolution.  This is one of the worst ISPs I have ever had to deal with and they have the balls to charge a ridiculous price where as in other parts of the world they pay 15$ for 10x the speed I have.

    I have never received a private message from you.  Today is 8/11/15 and I am still having connectivity issues.  Three technicians were sent to my home none resolved the issues.  You people have failed the Comcast Guarantee and I have not received the 40$ that's part of that guarantee.  I visited the service center near me because I have not received any help from any of your communication methods.  When I went there I was rudely greeted by Gina who told me the service center only provides modems and refused to talk to me.  The situation was so surreal the manager had to stop helping his customer to assist me and make an appointment with a 4th technician.  I have also been promised callbacks from supervisors and never received them.  Throughout this time you people have lied to me constantly and made it extremely inconvenient and time consuming to even attempt to resolve my issue.  I have never been treated so horribly as a customer in my entire life.  I even filed a report with the FCC but your Executive Relations person Christina M. had the ticket closed even though I still am having connectivity issues.  Two of the technicians gave me their # and email yet I cannot send any email to them because comcast servers refuse to complete the request and none of the phone # work. 

  • [Forum FAQ] Why does Office 2013 cost more network flow when the application starts by default?

    Recently, we’ve heard that our customers encounter high network traffic since they large-scalely deploy Office 365/2013 within the domain/site. Does this behavior relate to the new Office? Or does Office 365/2013 cost more network resources in this case?
    To troubleshoot this, we consider to analyze what happened during the process by Network Monitor tool. 
    Start a new capture first and launch Office Word 2013, get the following things as the screenshots:
    According to the information above,
    in addition to the network authentication flow, we could notice that the Word.exe would download a lot of PNG files from the link “/en-us/templates”. What about those PNG files?
    Let us try to directly visit them via IE:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/TM103463086.png?ts=AOLhIeGIzwg
    Beyond question, they are the thumbnails of the Office template which are downloaded while the Office application starts by default.

    In
    some certain circumstances,
    we might disable it by Office option or Group policy.
    Disable Start Screen by Office 2103 UI:
    Open Office 2013 application, go to File in Ribbon > Options tab > General page > under the section of Start Screen options, uncheck the options "Show the
    Start screen when this application starts"
    Disable Start Screen by Registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\General
    DisableBootToOfficeStart (DWORD): set the value
    to 1
    Disable Start Screen by Group Policy:
    Disable Start Screen by OCT:

  • Why is video 30gb cost more than classic 80gb (if classic has better specs)

    Why is it that a better ipod for specs and features is cheaper than an older, less memory and less features ipod video ?
    Is there something apple isnt saying ?
    Or have ipod's finally come down in price from the start ?

    They always end up making things cheaper even though the new cheaper product is better.

  • Why does cloud copy pictures more than once

    everytime I download a picture it gets copied three or four times. it does it on my phone and computer. How do I stop it from doing this.

        mycalls2010, I know that would bug me just the same. To be certain, you state that images you download are the ones copied? Does this also happen to photos that you take with the camera? Where are they being copied to? Within the gallery? Are they placed within the same folder or separate?

  • Why does iOS5 drains battery more than iOS4?

    Upgraded to iOS 5 a few weeks ago and iCloud about a week ago.  Something is draining my battery.  I charge it each and every night (goes on charger at 10pm or earlier).  At 5:30 I'm up and disconnect before leaving home around 7:15am.  Prior to iOS 5, when iOS 4 was on the phone, I could get a couple of days use if need be (not off completely, but screen off). 
    Today same routine, but the battery indicator was in the red at 4 pm.  Before iOS 4 without iCloud, no problem; but now it'll need a charge part way through the day. Is it iCloud and/or iOS 5?  What is going on? 
    If iOS 5 is the culprit, can we reinstall iOS 4?  If not, then iCloud needs to be removed.
    Any help would certainly appreciated. 

    I have this habit of closing opened applications immeditaely because our internet provider in the Philippines is not really great. So id there are too many applications opened, it tends to slow down everything. So i have also addressed that issue about multiple applications running.
    Yesterday for example, it was fully charged at 12:00 noon. I started using my ipad while i was in a nail salon. I only opened my readers digest e- magazine to read. I noticed after an hour of reading it, i noticed that battery was only 27%  left and ipad became very warm.
    I noticed that everytime i use my ipad, when it gets warm, the battery gets depleted very fast.

    Why won't the preview song play for more than 10 seconds?

    Perhaps try resetting your iTunes Store Cache.
    Go "Edit > Preferences". In the Advanced tab, click the "Reset cache" button shown in the following screenshot:

    Restart your iTunes, and head back to the Store. Are you getting full previews now?

  • Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?

    I bought an iPad Mini and also have a macbook. I had listened to various music on my iPad Mini the other day, however when I connected the iPad Mini to the Macbook and iTunes via the lightning connector to sync, it synced the ratings I gave the songs I listened to on the mini, but no play count, as if I had not listened to anything. I hope there is something I can do about this as I often look at my play count!!

    It should work work but these kind of bugs pop up between updates, both hardware and software. Try closing all apps in the recently used list on the iPad. Double tap the Home button, tap and hold one of the icons at the bottom till they wiggle then tap the to close them. Tap the Home button to get back to the Home screen then hold the sleep button till you see the slide to power off message. Once it has powered down completely hold the Sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

    Does it even really matter...?
    Many people including myself rely on playcounts to control smart playlist to manage large libraries. Smart playlists can be created to show your most or least played tracks and used more or less as your favorites or other uses. Along with playcounts the date is transferred so to keep a fresh list of music on my smaller iPods a smart playlist set to songs not played in the last month keeps some fresh tunes on it.
    Playcounts are also used to manage Podcasts in iTunes to delete older episode. Bookmarks, which can also be effected by this, can mess up audiobooks, movies and podcast playback between different devices. So yes, it does matter.

  • When is a contract legal.  If the local store suggests I send in my 2008 Macbook in for 310 at their suggestion can the copany turn around and tell me it costs more than 1200 dollars?

    I went to my local Apple Store with a display problem and was told 700 dollars to reair it there or send it in for a complete overhaul referbish for
    310 plus tax.  I took it home consulted with my wife she said for a 2008 310 wasn't bad.  I brought it in and set I an agreement for the 310 and sent it in to returned in 3 to 5 days.  I also read online that others had done the same theing.  3 Days later I get an email from Apple that the repair would cost more than 1200 dollars and do I want to repair it for that price.  I called Tim Simpson and was told Apple doesn't honor agreements made at the retail store.  Should Apple be obligated to honor it's contracts.  I am assuming that Apple retail and Apple repair work for the same company.  The hinge problem has been a problem and Apple had a free  repair window for 6 months but didn't tell it's customers about it.  At least I never heard from them.  So when is a contract a contract and has Apple success lesoned it's famouse customer support.  We have been using Mac's since the 80's and currently have 7 products currently in use in our household.  I used to work for a computer consulting company and since moving to North Carolina moved completely to Apple.  Is it time to revise that thinking.  Thanks for you ear and input

    Hi,
    Thanks for the response.  The store told me everything would be fixed for 310 because the go through the entire computer and fix any problems they find.  Now was that a written guarantee or a verbal assurance.  To Bob if I wasn't told that the price would be lower then I wouldn't have bothered to send it in and we would use it until it stopped functioning and know one would be upset.  It was at the store suggestion I sent it in and spent over an hour of my time traveling to an from the only Apple store in my area.  I worked in technology for 12 years and have dealt with and performed customer service on a professional level.  I have experience with contracts and if someone says we will do something for you writes up an invoice and does not say that it is up to the "depot" then there is a case to be made.

  • Bought a ipod nano 6th and is not playing for more than 2 min?

    bought a ipod nano 6th and is not playing for more than 2 min?

    The most likely problem is that the headset is not inserted fully. When you insert the headset, you should feel and hear a "Click" to let you know it is inserted all the way.
    The problem is that if it is not inserted all the way, the nano does not detect it. If it is not detected, it will pause playback when the screen goes dark. This is to keep your battery from draining when there is nothing connected to listen to the music.

  • Why do digital downloads cost more in Canada?

    Why do digital downloads cost more in Canada? Our dollar is at parity with the United States, if not higher. There is no difference in digital delivery cost? This seems tremendously unfair.  

    Becasue the music industry/distributors have ony agreed to the current pricing.  Apple cannot charge less than the owners of the distribution rights allow.  Apple also is likely to incur different costs in each nation ( software licensing/taxes, diffeterent laws and regulations that may effect costs, etc.
    Prices for most  things are not exactly the same from store to store, city to city, country to country, etc.
    If someone has told you that life is fair, then demand an apology from them.
