I got a letter by mail with an offer for FIOS Tripple Freedom (5/2 Mbs Internet, TV, PHONE) for 99.99 per month plus 100 USD AMEX gift card after first month of service and another 100 USD AMEX gift card in a year. Two year contract required. I have called to ask about this offer and asked about getting faster internet for extra money and the customer service lady said that they are running a special and she can include a 20/5 mbs internet for the same 99.99 price for two years! A great deal, I would say, for the blazing fast speed internet! My installation is scheduled November 7. Other fees/charges - one time activation fee 19.99, HDTV box 9.99 per month, SDTV box 3.99 a month, free isntallation up to 3 TV's and one PC, they give tou free router. I am in Montgomery County, MD and the phone number on the letter is 1-866-295-2009, there is no offer code, just mention 200 USD AMEX gift cards and ask about 20/5 mbs internet promotion.

A friend got it and can't stop raving about the blazing speed. sucks to be me. dont get so depressed,afterall this double,triple,ultimate play everything is a scam!!Be happy that you aren't hit with a huge bill for 2 yrs.when things go wrong with them,its only downhill from there & u'r struck for a loong time
I would not use the exact world as above comment, but I do identify with it for the frustration. Anything comes in 2yrs lock-up, especially with verizon, I am hesitate...
Anyone have the fios tv? I've read on the interweb that the dvr software stinks. I have comcast now, and like it very much, but might switch for this deal. I just don't want to get stuck with some crappy dvr.

I'm not necessarily excited over the "deal," but I would love to get FIOS instead of cable.

I do not have FIOS (see my post above) but my friend who does have it, use to use T1vo, now she is using the dvr from verizon, and she seems VERY happy with it, something about multi-room viewing, and she has sold all her T1vos, I think she had 4 before.

The original DVR release blew, but v2.0 that they are rolling-out nationally now seems to be much better. It probably can't be worse than Cox... Time Warner always had great IPGs though.
Ive had the fios triple play for 5 months now in md. That sucks that they are just now coming out with free gift cards for signing up. I guess i missed out on that.
On that note, I pay 10 bucks extra a month to get 15/2 speeds. I wonder if i can call up and get the upgrade to 20/5 for free.

Wow, how can it possibly get any worse than a cable box? Apparently you haven't had satellite before. At least in my Time Warner area, they use the Scientific Atlanta 8300HDC - there is no way to customize the guide, among other things.
I also got FIOS installed today, but I can only get the double play (20/5 and phone). Working nicely. My deal is "$50" per month which equals a $75 bill each month, including taxes, line charges, FCC charges, new car for the CEO charges, etc.. I wonder how much this $100 package will be per month...
