Hey I work at Qwest and have not seen this offer advertised much yet so I thought I would make sure it showed up to fellow FWers.

Here is the deal, if you have a phone package(a phone line with 3 features usually 25.99-29.99) with Qwest you can get 1.5 mb DSL for 14.99 and 7 mb DSL for 24.99 for a FULL YEAR WITHOUT CONTRACT(you can do the price for life contract if you would like).

This is of course for new customers only.

Here is the link, just select your state and check if they have high speed available in your area.


FOR EXISTING QWEST CUSTOMERS CLICK THIS LINK AND INPUT YOUR HOME TELEPHONE NUMBER:

or here to check availability on your phone CHECK AVAILABILITY

 

 

FOR NEW QWEST CUSTOMERS PUT IN YOUR ADDRESS AND INFORMATION AND THROUGH THE ORDER YOU WILL SEE THIS OFFER:

***EDIT*** This is available in all Qwest areas with 1.5mb DSL speeds and up available, however YOU WILL NOT SEE IT UNTIL YOU INPUT YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER OR ADDRESS IF YOU ARE A NEW CUSTOMER.

If all else fails you can call customer service and sales to order at 1-800-244-1111

IIRC Qwest was the only telco that did not give in to the illegal requests for wiretapping (come back with a warrant). But.. it's Verizon only where I live...

If that's true and they were available in my area, I'd probably sign up on principle.

NSA Has Massive Database of Americans' Phone Calls

    "It's the largest database ever assembled in the world," said one person, who, like the others who agreed to talk about the NSA's activities, declined to be identified by name or affiliation. The agency's goal is "to create a database of every call ever made within the nation's borders."

    Among the big telecommunications companies, only Qwest has refused to help the NSA, the sources said. According to multiple sources, Qwest declined to participate because it was uneasy about the legal implications of handing over customer information to the government without warrants.

    Qwest's refusal to participate has left the NSA with a hole in its database. Based in Denver, Qwest provides local phone service to 14 million customers in 14 states in the West and Northwest. But AT&T and Verizon also provide some services — primarily long-distance and wireless — to people who live in Qwest's region. Therefore, they can provide the NSA with at least some access in that area.

Unfortunately you can only get this if you are a new customer, I have not received any info that current customers or almost brand new customers can switch to this. You could call in but it would be a big YMMV sorry.

Thanks for the info. Finally, Qwest comes up with an offer that looks like a viable alternative to the usually high-priced Comcast packages in my area. Time for a change.

alert mods    

$25 x 12 = $300
$37 X 12 = $444

Monthly fee (over 24 months) = $31

Green for you, OP! Of course, I already have 1.5mbps service ($27/mo), so I had to get my Qwest buddy to contact his people internally to see if I could get this deal (they'll be calling me next week).

If you sign up though Best Buy you also get a $100 gc and free modem (AR). They only show the $14.99 for 1 year though, not the "price for life" deal.

I was wary though, because even though it listed the low price, it still showed full price with a disclaimer that it may not reflect promotions. An additional disclaimer stated that promotions may not be eligible though the online signup. Good deal if it's real.

Yeah, just to clarify this deal is only for one year. Even with the price for life contract it only lasts one year and goes up to the price for life price after the promotion of 1 year. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that. You also do not have to do the contract, you can go month to month and then it goes a lot higher after the 1st year.

This is a good deal. Qwest has been holding the line on their DSL rates, and this is the first break I've seen in those prices in a long time. So I can't help but puzzle over the thoughts of the four people who gave thumbs-down to the op's post. But as usual, these hitmen have fled in silence, leaving the reasons for their hostilities a mystery.

On a side note, I tried to get Comcast, my current ISP, to match this new 12-month price from Qwest, but they refused, noting that the Qwest rate would return to normal after one year of service. But they did offer to lower my bill to $33/mo for the next six months (it's $42.95/mo now), so at least that's something. However, I'll probably end up switching to DSL--and in a year see what kind of promo offers Comcast then has for "new customers" such as myself.

SpinControl said:I had to get my Qwest buddy to contact his people internally to see if I could get this deal (they'll be calling me next week).No go since I am an existing customer. I'll have to call Loyalty in a few months when my 2 yr contract term expires (for the 1.5 mbps price for life). Too bad for now...

I have qwest.. only because I can't get comcast.. (for some reason they never hooked up cable to my house and the tech won't set one up for me..)

Their spirit of service.. is just that a looming spirit that no one has heard or seen.. Customer service is horrid.. because they will try to up-sale you every time you call in for help..

Of course i'm the only one to complain because my issues get tossed around the .net side of qwest and the billing side of qwest..

Of course I use to never have problems w/ them until I moved to a location that gives me 100+ ping on my games (I have the 7 meg line that only connects at 4-5 meg only because if it did connect at 7 i get a disconnect everytime the phone rang) Before I was getting 15-20..

So my suggestion.. find out if qwest has a server close to your location.. otherwise you're going to get a lot of headaches

All:

Just wanted to note that the $100 gift card deal is in effect at Wal-Mart as well, and they also offer the free basic modem deal (they had a little Qwest kiosk in front of the electronics dept). So, you pay for the modem, then you send in a rebate that comes with the modem to get it free.

They activate the gift card in the store, but tell you that you have to wait 8 weeks before the $100 credit gets activitated.

This was a helpful post, Op. Thanks!
