Hi,

i'm relocating to Boulder from Jersey this coming thursday and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good high-speed internet provider in Boulder, CO. i was hoping to find something where i can do a bundle package like verizon: high-speed internet + landline phone + direct tv for a flat rate.

also i was wondering what the name of the energy provider out there is called so i can give them a ring to turn on my electricty and set an account with them. thanks.

At our house in Louisville, we bundle phone,cable and internet with Comcast.

At my office in Denver, I use Qwest DSL. Both companies are fast.

The electric co is called Xcel Energy

I bundle all my services with Qwest as I had horrendous problems with Comcast when I first moved to Boulder. Note to Self: do NOT move to Boulder at the beginning of a school year as all the students get internet installed first so I had to wait 3 weeks. Anyway, local energy provider is Xcel.

I have Qwest phone service with DSL internet and it's so-so. If I want faster internet at home, I could pay more but it gets the job done.

I use DirecTV and have no complaints. I would not use satellite internet for my home as it is expensive and have heard nothing but complaints. We don't have the option of cable services in our area (Pueblo West) and wouldn't want it at this time.

If some company comes along and can offer us a bundle for TV, land line with long distance, fast internet, and cell phone coverage I would be more than interested.

LOL I live in Harrisburg PA and hate comcast too. Does anyone like this company? Their customer service really stinks.

Qwest is horrible, Qwest seems to have the only right or provider of Internet and phone service in Pueblo West. Recently Qwest told me they are out of Internet boxes for my area. It is 6 months and can't find an alternate company. Buyers beware of Utilities in your desire home area. Beware of Qwest. Any Internet suggestion for Pueblo West stuck without?
