Hi BigSpecBear,

Glad to hear your son’s experience with AT&T is positive so far; does he have the UVHSI Pro plan? How did he get them to waive the $49 activation fee?

I found out today that AT&T requires a 2-year contract. The $19.95/mo promo price for the Pro Plan is good for 12 months, then increases to $38.00/mo. (But might be able to get them to extend promo price per Waiting4College.) $180 termination fee.

Comcast doesn’t require a contract; there’s no termination fee. Since I expect (hope) to be done in a few semesters, I won’t need service for 2 years so I’m leaning toward Comcast since there’s no required term.

Thanks so much for the responses that have been posted!
