Yeah, honestly even if Consolidated cost more I still would have switched due to much better upload speeds, plus how Comcast has treated me over the years.

Then after switching we received communications from Comcast for months that we needed to return our equipment, despite not having any. It took several phone calls for them to stop.

Yeah, getting raked over the coals is never fun. Was thrilled when then announced fiber to my place. And I do not consider cellular a real option even if I had good signal near my house.

I just wish Consolidated Communications partnered with YTTV or Fubo instead of DirectTV (bleh) for streaming. Would be cool to bundle them, or at least get some sort of discount.

90%+ are economic migrants. Southern and Central America has suffered under overpopulation, corruption, and failed economies for so long that even working a menial job in the US is a better option. Then migrants and smugglers started discovering if you just claim asylum it is easier to get into the country.
