I have updated "quick summary" for "out of door" cost question which a lot of guys are asking and put that in bold so that one can't miss it... One must always read "quick summary" before asking questions...

Anybody have a guess as to what this service will cost after the first year?

you will get an email to renew your service at promotion price.

nope 4 me

How many days is it taking you guy to get everything and get it up and running after you placed your order at BB. I know the estimated time according to BB is 10 business days.

Ugh stupid best buy servers don't work properly for ordering DSL. I am moving to a location that can receive SBC DSL (confirmed by SBC) and have to use the special order option at BB. When submit is hit, I get an error at every BB store I've been to. Can this be ordered online somehow to take advantage of the rebates?

Wasn't this date supposed to be given by SBC? Did the SBC really contact you within 48 hours of after signing up? What BB has told you should be "should be"

mizliz said:I just went to the local BB and asked for this deal. The guy "seemed" to know what I was talking about, but they were out of the modem. So, he went online and placed the order for me. He went thru everything really fast, kept assuring me that he was getting the proper deal, that the modem would be delivered to me, that all the rebates would print. (He was checking off boxes like "I have read and agree to the terms" without even telling me what he was doing, which pissed me off. I'm kicking myself for not just walking out.) But I thought it was all resolved when he went to the register, rang up the sale (for $0, saying the modem would be charged to my visa when they shipped it), and several rebate forms printed, including the $75 gift card and $20 Image Lab one.

When I got home I was looking over everything carefully, and it didn't print any $15 rebate on the modem, only one for $75. Also, it doesn't look to me like he even ordered a modem...it's not mentioned anywhere on my receipt. SBC has already emailed me to confirm that they have my order for service.

The BB.com site is a joke! I went to HighSpeedInternetCustomerCare@BestBuy.com as my receipt says to do if any questions. It redirected me to the BB.com home page. I spent about 20 minutes looking for anything to do with High Speed Internet or Customer Care. Finally got redirected to the GetConnected site, put in my phone & addy, and SBC doesn't even come up as available.

I don't know what the hell is going on but I do know it's going to be a pain in the butt to straighten this mess out. My own fault for not being more assertive with the BB guy. He acted like he knew exactly what he was doing, but apparently not.When I went to my first BB, the guy just told me the same, that he will order modem and will ship to my home. I said I don't want to do that and just tell me where it is available in nearby BB stores. The BB guy where I purchased modem told me that SBC will be able to process dsl order in about a week and gave me a firm date during order. SBC is supposed to contact you within 48 Hrs if they have any difficulty in processing the order.
