Cool Cable?

I am moving to Orlando this month. My zip is 32812. I'll be living off of S Conway Rd. Can anyone tell me what the best cable provider for this area is? Thank you!

You'll be stuck with Brighthouse. When I upgraded to an HD box with Dimhouse, I experienced the single worst customer service experience I've ever dealt with. My "installer" was 6 hours late, I was promised several call backs with updates and never got a single one, there was a 40 minute wait to speak to a supervisor, and all they offered me was $20 off my bill for the trouble. Enjoy your cable!

Brighthouse is probably the largest, but there are other companies. For example Comcast.

I live in the same zip code. You will have Brighthouse. I haven't had any problems with them. I see Comcast billboards around town, but they don't service that zip code.

You might consider satellite? For example, Directv. After having satellite, I would never go back to cable. But others are right, it's pretty much Brighthouse around here.

I've got Comcast myself, but I live in South Florida. There are no competition right now for Comcast in South Florida other than the satellite providers and there's way too many storms in Florida and I know I'd get annoyed when my signal fuzzes in and out. I also have internet through Comcast so it's convenient. I didn't say cheap, but convenient.

I will have to check that out and price everything and see what is better. Thanks!
