Just saw this promo. It was $21.99 up until now. They appear to guarantee the price for one year. Also remember that Verizon now offers Dry Loop service in most areas. Meaning you can get DSL without the telephone service. Although they do change $5 a month for that. Here is the Link

Enjoy.

Man, you don't even need to click on the link.

If you just mouse over it says:

"http://www.verizonmarketing.com/768kboffer/"

If this was for 1.5 Mbps then I would switch. Comcast sucks so bad (as a company) I would be willing to take the speed cut.

I disagree - I think its an excellent price for a entry level high-speed modem. Most people don't need FIOS / cable speed.

Also, even though it was once available for $15, they required a phone line and quickly raised the price to $18 then $22

the title is deceptive. you should include "per month" in the title. $14.95 for a whole year of DSL would be a good deal any way you cut it...

They want it, it's not a question of whether they need it or not. Most people don't need Windows ME II, either, but that doesn't stop them from going out of their way to find a good deal on it. Same goes for most deals posted here.

Um, you might want to add "per month" to your title...

No deal here. As another poster said this is AT&T regular price.

Uhhhh I don't understand the point of your post. AT&T is NEVER available in the same area as Verizon and vice versa. And Verizon has wanted more money than this for this service lavel for a long long time.

Anyway, whatever, I edited the title.

I use the RoadRunner lowest service level at the moment which is $19.99 and if you don't buy enough of the Cable TV options they add another $5 to the bill. So I'm paying $25 for supposedly the same speed. However, with Verizon I was getting speeds of around 800 - 900 Kbps. With RoadRunner I'm lucky to hit 650Kbps. And there are No Other options available in my area, save the Dial UP . If this deal was around when I placed my order, I would have opted for Verizon instead of RoadRunner. So for me there is more than one thing that make this price hot. Although I accept it may not be for everyone. It doesn't mean this is not a hot deal it just means it is not for you.

Good Luck.

It is a great deal for these who live in Verizon-only area. There is no better deal at this speed so far. The last $14.99/month from Verizon was one and half years ago. 768kbps is good enough for most internet surfing.
AT&T has a similar rate, however it is not available at all the areas.
After one year of contract, the rate is supposed to be the current rate then. However, it stays at $14.99. I am currently using this plan. It's been more than one year. I still pay $14.99/month which happens to others in my area as well.

I agree and support everything said above. comcast sucks and i'm considering to go w/lower speed but pay 3 times less too.
good find EG

768 isn't -that- bad. I have a 768 symmetrical for one of my servers and the speed isn't a big deal for average surfing....

The time I moved the 9GB tar file was a different story. 100k/sec seems much slower when you move 9GB.

Whatever the current rate is after the contract is over.
