Cable vs. Satellite
What do you get with Cable that you don't get with Satellite?
All The Important Things!
With Cable you get low-cost installation on every TV in your home.
There is no need to purchase
costly receivers for every T.V. set. Each set in your home can
be tuned to a different channel at the same time. Just one economical monthly
payment is needed for all programming and equipment. Satellite companies generally require customers to buy costly receivers for each set on which you want to watch their service. Installation is expensive, often hundreds of dollars for each set. Some satellite companies require customers to pay for a full year of service in advance!
With Cable you get local channels and networks.
Cable provides local channels
and U.S. network affiliates such as ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX. Area news, weather, and sports.
Free public service announcements
and community bulletin boards. Satellite companies require an antenna or a basic cable subscription to get local channels.
With Cable you get better customer service.
Full-time customer service
and maintenance is available free of charge. In-home repair service is
one free phone call away. Service guarantees are provided
for all appointments. Satellite companies don't always offer local repair or customer service. Customers are generally required to purchase their own equipment and become totally responsible for maintenance and repair. Equipment may need to be shipped back to the manufacturer for repair.
With Cable you get the Total Home Communications package.
Your existing in-home wiring
is capable of delivering both Internet and television services through one
convenient connection meaning:There's just one bill to worry
aboutYou pay a discounted price
for combining servicesSatellite companies may provide Internet access, but a phone line is needed for two-way communication. It may never be as fast as cable or as reasonably priced. Plus, most satellite customers are required to purchase their own equipment.
With Cable you get local support in your community.
Cable companies pay local
taxes and provide jobs within the community. Local charities and causes
important to your community are supported by your local cable company.
Satellite companies are national or international and rarely have a local office or telephone number. They seldom, if ever, support the local community at any level.
