Utilities Advice for North Dallas
Hi All
Well, we're 11 days and counting until we leave L.A. for Dallas  . My wife and I found a 3bdr condo just south of the 635 off of Preston in North Dallas. Does anyone have advice on high speed internet, electric, etc. for that area? |

We like our Verizon FIOS, it's cable, internet and phone. Our bill is about 170/m.
We use TXU for electric, we pay .13/kwh.

I use Time Warner Cable for internet and TXU for electricity.
Are you off Harvest Hill, by chance?

We moved here last friday. We ordered Time Warner 7/24 and they can't come out until 8/15. Verizon Fios isn't available here (75240)
We went with AT&T for DSL. Green Mountain for electricity.

It's nothing fancy, but we're renting a 3bdr for under a thousand bucks, so compared to what we pay now in L.A. for a 1bdr we're happy. Plus there are not a whole lot of rental choices close to our syangogue, which we need to be in walking distance to. |

Does Charter (cable/internet) service that area? Ours was set up the next day. Welcome to Texas!

I just checked, they don't. The soonest Time Warner can come out is august 29th which is ridiculous. I guess that's what happens when you have a monopoly.....  |
