They are wiring my street as we speak. Any feedback as to how it works with TivoHD? Anyone from MA using a cablecard M with FIOS? I've read that they charge $3.99 per mo per cablecard.
Even if they say taxes are extra, there's NO WAY to pay $99 + taxes. You need a receiver (even a basic one) and that costs at least $5 a month. And taxes are a good 20%. Add an HD DVR and you end up at least over $135.
Match it to cable's 3x play, and you pay the same in the end no matter what. Still, much better than a la carte TV/Phone/Internet...
Hmm...if they offer this to existing customers, it might be worth it, as we pay something similar now with no phone. Of course, the $5 & $10 off a month are only for a year, and I'd have to bump it up to the 2nd tier, but it should still work out to be about the same as what I'm paying now.
Special Offer : NEW REDUCED PRICE! $89.99/mo. ($10 OFF of $99.99/mo.) for 1 year with annual agreement! PLUS, add one of the options below.
Get *$150 BACK, Or, an additional $20/mo. OFF for the first 6 months ($69.99/mo. for months 1-6; $89.99/mo. months 7-12). That’s like getting 3 services for the price of 2.
And, complete this order online to get an additional $5 OFF every month for 1 year.
This is for their Triple Freedom package with 15Mbps / 5Mbps.
Looks like a great deal. I'm not sure how it compares to my cablevision service which I also get HBO and Starz but I'm paying nearly $160 a month. Will see if they can do something for me else I might have to give verizon a try.

Actually, I pay $100.xx including taxes with FiOS triple play. I signed up about a year ago, when they were offering Free HD-DVR for a year, but only $75 gift card rebate.
I have the HDExtreme package (1 STD receiver, 1 HD-DVR receiver, 1 add-on receiver (no guide, no widgets, nothing extra, just TV) with 20/5 internet, and Verizon Freedom phone service. It comes out to $88.xx before taxes, then add $12 in taxes and fees, and the total is $100.xx
Pros: We love the TV signal quality and the HD channel line up. The internet is stupid fast... Phone is crystal clear...
Cons: Can't use DVR function in the HTPC. It would require updating the tuner card to CableCard capable receiver... With cable, you can DVR everything, but the premium channels, which we don't have anyways.

I am planning on giving them a call when my 1 year deal runs out. I am pretty sure they would rather keep a customer paying what he has been paying, rather than look for a new customer.
I wanted to do the bundle, but the hardware for 4 tvs was too high. I went with DSL Extreme, a FIOS reseller for $40/mo and the Dish TV deal for another $50 or so. And Pageplus for phone. I'll add ooma or skypeout or something if I need to, later.
Taco said:I do have two HD-DVRs though. You get soaked something like $12-$15 a month per box and DVR "service".If you don't like it, replace them with TiVo's and tell us how much money it saves (or costs) you. BTW the HD-DVR's are actually $16 each per month.

I have FIOS with two Tivos (HD and S3). It's $3.99 per cablecard, which is cheaper than any box you'd need from Verizon. It works great, assuming you're ok with not getting On Demand stuff.
