I do not belong to TDS, but have heard that the phone bill is quite high if, and I say IF one makes long distance calls say to family members. That is why I gave them up, plus the dish is not all it is cracked up to be in MY EYES. We have the MetroCast VIP 3 package deal and find it great for talking to family members in MA and the internet, but the TV is extremely high as most of their stations are repeated on many different channels. I had Verizon FIOS and I paid the same as Metrocast, but got over 175 DIFFERENT channels in their expanded basic.
If one company can offer that many different channels and make money why can't others also???
I sorry for not staying with the question, but think all can get my drift on the subject.
