Verizon Fios

thebigdintx · 11-24-2007, 09:42 PM

I have Verizon Fios internet, tv, and phone so I though I would give a review of it so far for anyone considering getting it. The internet service is real fast (I have the 15Mbps download/2Mbps upload plan) and when you first load the verizon software on your computer you choose from MSN Premium or Yahoo as your e-mail/browser. I chose MSN and I get free McAfee antivirus with the MSN Premium. The Fios TV is really good, with lots of channels which all come in super clear. They have a good onscreen tv guide too although they just changed it over to a different one, and I liked the old one better. They have some choices for your set top box as far as if you want a HD one and/or one with a DVR in it which is nice. The Fios phone service is really clear, I never hear any kind of interference. I've had fios for about 6 months and am really enjoying it. I got on a bundle deal with all three services for $106 a month. Hope this helps anyone out there considering getting fios.
